 		So, here's a concern:

I got the e-mail from the bit0xtra.thot, as well. I figured a player sent us e-mail from our profiles in this thread.

The thing is, the address I have listed is not the one I received, but the one I wrote to the GA Project from. Is this a Curtain issue if they're sending us e-mails trying to convene us in this "game"?

Nonetheless, it's a gmail, so a few of us will at least find them on Gtalk.

Edit: Maybe it is a player contacting us? http://www.google.ca/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&q=bit0xtra.thot&meta=lr%3D

Someone by the name of Sue posts on a discussion forum publicizing that very e-mail, and has been doing so since March. Sue, if you're here let us know that you aren't a trail to follow. Otherwise, I'd say you're being a bit sloppy?

 		Where did you get that?

Also, notice that one of the article images is called "image.php.jpg"? Is this just lazy naming? Or could there be something in that?

Tried 'confessional' (After the band Dashboard Confessional hey worth a shot lol) And got the message about possible wrong password but WinRAR also commented that.

Have a look at the header of the mails you received from GA Project. They haven't bothered to send them as blind copy (BCC), so anybody who looks at the header will find the addresses of the other receivers - BAD style in my opinion. I think that's how bit0xtra found us. I just sent a mail with a link to our thread here, so maybe he/she'll join us.

 		OK I know I F***ed up but I email Andy before I read the post about no interaction.

The reply I got was

Quote:
IP address??

What do you mean? Who are you?


I replied it was a computer error and tried to cover

So I got another reply

Quote:
No worries.

A tad busy anyway.

I know its not relevant but if it comes up you know why.

Don't feel like an idiot. When someone tells me NOT to do something, I usually do it anyway.

Chances are we were supposed to contact him somehow anyway, so awesome Smile Let's try to decode this e-mail, it's weird.

 		I'm used to being the antagonist in games I play, I think everyone's used to it by now. But go ahead Cog, you never know it might be interesting to see what happens to you.
