[AA][Reference] The Story So Far

Diego and Isobella are two siblings who go to school together. They're friends with Jan, Sarah, Ellisandre, and Mary-Kate. Only, there's something a little different about them. After hacking into a site on eyegasm-design.com, we found out they're using "chanuquekids" as a password, which is a misspelling of "Chaneque", a type of Mexican spirit. So at least some of them are probably not entirely human.

Anyway, Isobella and her friend Sarah were accosted on the street by Mikey Surry, a private detective who specializes in child predation -- he was hired by some parents to find out about their daughter's internet habits. Sarah and / or Isobella got pissed, and something weird happened to him that's making him hallucinate and act crazy and possibly die unless we do something quickly.

While a few players were at ARGFest, they went to "the Tomb" (a cool Egyptian based live action puzzle theatrical experience thing in Boston) based on a letter intended for Surry. Inside, the group found a Jefferson cipher wheel and a letter detailing a ritual to give Surry back his soul and not die. After gathering the ingredients and sending the audio and video files to Surry, he performed the ritual, didn't die, and went to get a cheeseburger.

I think Mikey's blogspot needs to be added here and on wiki. I'm not the best at editing wikis, so anyone else up to it?

Thanks Jain. It took me a while last night to track down the blog. Of course, after my last post I noticed the big bold BLOG link on the surryinvestigations page. Embarassed

Late night ARGing plays tricks on ones eyes.

I added the new coded message blog, Parvulus Patroni, to the listing.

Hopefully timeline with this info to come soon, but thanks for the thread as a good start!

Awesome!

I've added a bit of detail, including some touch-ups to the ARGFest page. (Unfortunately, I also accidentally created a duplicate page since I missed the link that was already there. But it won't let me delete it.)

Some of the additional things are missing, like the images found through the LagTV clues and the packages with the masks, but I can't do any more editing right now. I'll check back later to do some more cleanup and add those side items if nobody else gets around to it first.
