 		diningroombasement
locked in a room... by us?
I just got an IM (on Yahoo) from diningroombasement. He/she is locked in a room with only three contacts on the IM list: me, Natas, and Ndemeter. diningroombasement blames us for locking him/her in this room and is begging to be let out.

I have been out of the arg loop for a while and I thought of a ton of good questions to ask AFTER the fact but I didn't get much info from him. I was working and caught a little off guard. Maybe someone else has more info than I do. Here is my IM log:
Quote:

[23:53] diningroombasement: Last out of three, Can you convince your friends to let me go?
[23:54] amigurumijain: i can try?
[23:54] amigurumijain: where are you
[23:55] diningroombasement: Funny just like your friend. Lets just get this over with. Im in this stinking room, where you put me. Judging by my name its supposed to be a dining room. I woke up here, with you three saved onto my contacts. HArdy har
[23:56] amigurumijain: i'm sorry, i have no idea what you're talking about
[23:56] amigurumijain: but i will try to help you
[23:56] amigurumijain: who else is on the contacts list?
[23:57] diningroombasement: Two guys named Natas and ndemeter. Once again, verry funny
[23:57] amigurumijain: i'm really not trying to be an ass
[23:58] amigurumijain: i have heard of natas but i dont know the other one
[23:59] diningroombasement: Please just let me go. I told that Natas that I would pay him. Just let me out. The rats are driving me nuts
[23:59] amigurumijain: i would if i could, i promise
[23:59] amigurumijain: can you give me any more info about where you could be?
[00:01] amigurumijain: where is the last place you remember being before this room?
[00:02] diningroombasement: This room is where I woke up. Its pretty messed up. Ugh my head is starting to pound from that smell.
[00:02] diningroombasement: My cab
[00:02] diningroombasement: Heading for my meeting
[00:02] amigurumijain: where is your meeting, what city
[00:02] diningroombasement: Tampa
[00:03] diningroombasement: Who are you? What is it you want
[00:03] amigurumijain: i dont want anything, i'm sorry but whoever told you i was involved in this was wrong
[00:03] amigurumijain: why dont i try to contact natas and see if i can get any more information for you
[00:04] diningroombasement: Look at it from my angle. I wake up in this hole, you guys are the only people I can talk to, and you don't know anything?
[00:04] diningroombasement: Bull
[00:05] amigurumijain: i understand you're frustrated but i really dont know anything
[00:05] amigurumijain: i will try to find out though
[00:05] diningroombasement: Fine, I need to
[00:05] diningroombasement: take a break
[00:05] amigurumijain: ok
[00:05] amigurumijain: do you have food or water?
[00:05] diningroombasement: Nowhere nearby
[00:05] amigurumijain: ok i will try to hurry
[00:06] amigurumijain: i'll find out what i can

 		I was in contact with him also... his name is Johnathan Turias.

I planned on asking him why doesn't he google 911? But then I decided against it.. We'll see where this goes.

 		I live in Orlando guys. If you need anyone to go to a location I guess I can help. I am sending off an e-mail myself to diningroombasement. We haven't any clues yet or web addresses? This seems pretty new. do we know anything else about this one, where it might be originating from or is someone just messing with you? That would be easy to make a goof on an arger.
Natas: Magneto has said in the past that we would get along well. Feel free to contact me.

 		Nothing so far. I've googled around but come up with nothing. I googled beyondtherooms and came up with a creepy video of a head in a box! But it turned out to be a ball jointed doll and was unrelated. Whew! Guess we just wait for more info. I may be up a little while. I'll keep thinking.

ETA: Found a Yahoo profile - nothing but the name Johnathan. There was no name when I first checked it if I remember correctly. Maybe he'll add some things.

It is. That's how I am on right now. The only problem with the iPhone is that it does not have background processing which means that I have to stay on the YIM app or it logs me off. Hopefully the 3.0 will help with this.

To find YIM for the iPhone look in the featured apps. It's free. Wink
