evanlee - jenila is spam. Ignore it.

Even if it's not and it's a PM posting (which it isn't), ignore it. They'll also be served a warning at the least because PMs posting in game threads against Unfiction's TOS.

looks like audrey is active now on the boards, still vague. seems we're 'scientists' who have to find a cure of this mass blindness (i'd imagine, before oct. 3rd).

the voices calling people this morning were confirmed as legit. It looks like some players will become infected or some ig characters might infiltrate the forums to spread this blindness. now i think maybe those getting the packages (including myself) might find a pair of those temporary sunglasses audrey said they gave her when the outbreaks started. I don't know.. I'd imagine they'd need some people to become infected and so far that's a major message only some players have received.

Seriously...I want my creepy phone call! xD

ETA: I started a thread called "Proxies" so we can all pick a representative in case we get infected.

Thanks clairnor. I hadn't seen that one before, and it's interesting to hear the thunderstorm audio along with the changing eyes. I wonder if lightning could be a factor in the white blindness?

Of course this is the eye from the maps too.
Way to go Clairenor! Smile
(This is a cool vid IMO).

Anyway interesting posting, esp. the reference to the retina.

I am going to google retina to see if there is anything relevant!

Pretty cool video as it stays centered on the pupil at all times and everything else seems to pivot about it.

Things that cause blindness

So we know this is highly contagious, so here is information on a contagious blindess disease:
Eye Herpes:

Then APV had the riddle about not wearing them while bathing or sleeping. Here is a disease from contact lenses.

Poor contact lens care:

I am stumped. Smile

just got a call from that same unknown number, same creepy voice...

I believe it said...

"Success, please tell (inform) the others that the shipment will be sent friday the 26th"

I think this shipment will aid us in our sleuthing...(or likely infect us lol... they gotta infect someone at this point, no?

If it ships Friday, then it prob won't be in anyone's hands until monday, this is assuming it's snail mail...might be a file or link or e-mail or something.
