New contact or game jack?

here is the email i found in my mail box this evening


Do not Fear the distortion for he is the lord of darkness and he will be merciful towards those who convert to him and abandon Echo,

to Prove your self to the Dark lord you must start to Create Chaos in HIS Name make havoc and Chaos for him and you shall be spared.

Also any ways to prevent the others from aiding Echo and those he protects will also be shown some degree of mercy,

GO children of Distortion and cause CHAOS IN THE DARK FATHERS NAME

the Loyal Servant,

Nicholas Trotti

the funny thing is it didn't have the (VITS .com thing) it was a gmail Addy.

was this a person not under PM control?

I've split this off from the Spirit Communications thread as this new contact is using a gmail account rather than the voicesinthestatic.com account that all the other characters use. ~ drizjr

Apparently, this is the person who trots mentioned previously by echo. Neither the lord of darkness nor his followers will get my attention.

This person, Trotti, isn't from the main website because he's human. He's not a spirit. That's my theory anyway. However, he may be someone we can fight better than we can fight D. We can't fight D. We go after him, we feed him. However, those that feed him don't get fed by being talked to. At least that is what I would think. We must find out who Trotti is...and find out what can slow him down or stop him altogether

EDIT: Also, get us his email address. We may need to focus our efforts on stopping followers and dropping the one who trots, obviously the leader of these followers, is priority one!.

It's either a new part of the game or it very well could be a game jacking situation...hurrm. I don't know. I have to wonder, honestly. I feel kinda, well, I don't know, weak. Useless. I mean, how can we stop someone from sending e-mails to someone else? There's either more to this than meets the eye or someone is kinda jacking us and we are getting screwed over for it.

could be the person is getting their version of tasks just like we are but from the distortion point of view, i mean i agree it was kinda odd but then again look at what walking paper did with the letter, this person could have been given an assignment like we where but to the end of helping distortion if that's the case, all i can say is wow this takes the ARG to a bit more a competitive scale, more so than the others like deleted, cause its not every one trying to win the score its people working for different agendas for different reasons, kind of makes it more interesting to me I'm still game any one else still with me to help echo as best as we can?

i got the email from trotti too

the message certain does feel different than other so far.

the theory that there's another half to this story and that someone was put up to the task of emailing us is *fascinating.* however, if this were going on, wouldn't we see threads about it on unforum?

regardless, i'm still all about helping echo!

That's exactely what I thought when I read about this. Plus the name, Nicholas Trotti, somehow sounded familiar and a bit later I remembered where I saw it before. This is part of the "VITS Echo & the Bunnyman" thread (on Oct. 09.):

tell me if echo starts to say we need to save the singer from queen or eric carr? or heaven forbid Nick Trotti..



@azureace: Who is this Trotti and why didn't you mention that you know the name when you posted your mail??? Surprised


I'll stick with Echo and what he has to say, not feeding the wrong side by giving it attention.

no one asked me about it till now.

the one i know of is in a band he used to be in a Iron maiden cover band and then jumped around the only reason i remembered his name was because there was this weird rumor he died of a overdose and then he surfaces again and its a case of wtf? but there have to be how many possible nick trotti's running around?

azureace, you mentioned a week or so ago that the person who got you into VITS has "trot" as the first four letters of his name.

sorry but i have been sick for a few days and i am just now catching up, the trot part worries me the most because its the same first four letters of a persons last name and its the same person who got me involved with VITS so i dunno what to think of it or not...just paranoia?


Can you rule that person out as the one feeding d?

ETA: Here's a myspace for a Nick Trotti, a guitarist Wind Wraith. The first song that comes up is about a fallen angel, "The Fallen One." http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=2355808

update on this of sorts

i emailed Trotti with the tag line of OOG and asked him if he was working against the PM makeing his own story out of it or something else,

his reply

Richard,

No i am not trying to railroad or game jack, through my messages with Distortion i was given tasks to complete and my latest was to Create Chaos.
sorry for the alarm i may have caused you with the demented evangelist take on the assignment, needless to say Distortion isn't to happy with me.
but enjoy your side of the story and yes next time i will make a tag if i have to send a email to let you know i am acting in game.
And in response as to your question of why would i help Distortion?simple every one is always about help the good guys why not test the waters by being a "Bad" guy right?

Nick



so my take is he is a player like us and that he just decided to join up with distortion because all of us are helping echo, does any one else get that feeling as well?

That's what it sounds like. I didn't think echo would suggest that someone on our side was fueling d if it wasn't so.
