 		CMH UPDATE - 08/23
Charles has updated...

Quote:
The gall of some people!

This Dread House TV show stuff is really starting to feel like a bee in my bonnet. Someone had the nerve to call me and not only pester me with questions about the show, but also demand (through various veiled threats) that I stay away from Cambridge! Imagine! Me.....stay away from my life's work and first love!

The coward didn't even have the courage to identify himself, and I refuse to be bullied by some nameless ruffian. I will go to Cambridge whenever I wish to do so!

The call did, however, have me wondering if there's more to this Dread House thing than I originally thought.

On a less cantankerous note, I did receive an email invitation to tour Cambridge with a Mr. Dishman. Although I'm unsure of when I'll next be going to Cambridge, I'll definitely keep it in mind. I love to act as a tour guide, although maybe I ramble a bit too much.

I'm still getting a lot of mail from people looking for information on a doctor by the name of Shoemaker, and although I don't recall the name, I will try to remember to ask Old Todd about it the next time I take a trip - if only to satisfy my own curiosity.

Charles


Why Dish, you've made a friend!

Wow, totally cool. Not sure how good of a friend though - he never personally responds to my emails, just writes about them in his updates! I guess that's as much as I can hope for until me, Charles, and Old Todd get together for a huge throwdown party...

This has me wondering...Has anyone sent Charles the maps, yet? If not, should we?

 		Wait, so did someone playing call him, or are we to take this as being a phone call from JC or someone else?

Also, here's a TOTALLY random observation . . . has anyone else noticed the difference in the font size when Charles signs the updates?
here's the line of code for his signature
Code:

</font><font color="#000000"><font size="-1" face="Papyrus">Ch</font><font face="Papyrus">arles</font></font><font color="#000000" size="-1" face="Courier New, Courier, mono">


It seems WAY too random for this to happen EVERY time, doesn't it? Maybe it's some sort of password or something.

We don't have a number for him, as far as I know, so I guess we have to assume it's either JC or TT, or some other in-game person.. hmm. Why would anyone want him to stay away from Cambridge now? Surely they've cleared out all the evidence?

From what little dishboy saw, I'd have to assume so.

But then, that didn't stop JC from managing to pick up the scraps of evidence he's found up there.

I haven't, and since nobody answered you, my guess is nobody has. I'm not going to because it wouldn't fit with the type of interactions the two of us have been having. I'd say go for it KC, couldn't hurt...

 		From the 8/16 Update at the CMH website

"I have been sent blueprints by various people claiming that certain areas denoted site scouting locations for the show. I cannot, for the life of me, see how those locations could have possibly been used for Dread House. Most of the areas pointed out to me were under heavy construction in the spring of 2003, and were totally inaccessible to anyone but the construction crews because they were working to remove asbestos and other hazardous materials. And later that same year (June, I think) many of the buildings in that same area were demolished."

So yes, I assume several someones have sent him the maps.

 		I believe the more likely explanation for me noticing it and not you might be your involvement several layers deeper than me, considering that I'm a newbie and all.

Then again, I'm a newbie, so what do I know Very Happy
