 		oh i see, Rogers has identified the Y! Messenger as a lost-profit application (ie. competing with text messages) and it is therefore not available in Canada.

awesome.

 		I didn't follow Amelia in the Bathroom either but I'll read through the thread tonight. I'm going to be gone most of the day but I got a reply to my email so I thought I would post it before I left.

My email:
Quote:
I am still looking for information to help you but no one I talk to seems to know anything. Are you on a laptop or a desktop? Do you have access to anything besides instant messenger, like Google or anything? Could you possibly find out your location by looking at some of the computers settings, like the time zone? I'm not sure what else to do now besides dig in that computer for info. Please let me know if you find something that will help me locate you. And by the way, what should I call you?

Jain


and his reply:
Quote:
I'm on a laptop. As far as I can tell there's nothing on this computer except the internet. As far as accessing other things goes, I tried to get on Google and it just brought me back here. As I write this the time says 6:00, but it also says that it's 2003. Sorry if I think that it might be a little off.

You can just call me John. Everyone else does.

Yes, I think the e-mail is the safest bet to get involved.

 		Exclamation I got my email response back. I did not follow the previous game either.

The email has little info.
Things that I got from it is that someone is definitely dead told by the smell and this guys education. (Trying to get more info in the his school.) All he has in the room is a table, old laptop, and a "crappy chair" I told him to break the chair and use its parts as a weapon and keep it near at all times. He thought he might have heard a scream as he was passing out in the room.
I also got his full name. Johnathan Andrew Turias

 		I'm in, sent off my first email asking him to describe everything that he can...

Do you think the people in the basement have been stuck in there from the other thread that was started? Poor folk. Sad


Thanks btw, Lunsford. Smile

 		I am still talking to him but I will transcribe as much as I can.

Quote:
diningroombasement: Like I told your (boss?) friend: I'm in a room with a crappy chair and old table. The plaster is sagging and there are hella rats.
Me: No doors?
Him: One. Its locked. Listen, who are you. Your friends tell me that they had nothing to do with my situation. Did you?
Me: Nope. My name is Nicko and I'd like to help you.
Him: You know any PI's?
Me: I am in law enforcement myself. Tell me where to start.
Him: Great. This seems right up your alley. I don't know where I am
Me: Is your name Jonathan?
Him: Johnathan Turias
Me: And you smell human decay? Listen, I will give you my cell phone. It is XXX XXX XXXX.
Him: Yes. My professor used to make us study cadavers. I think its in 'black decay'. I don't have any cell phone on me
Me: Any outside contacts I can reach for you? And what is the last thing you remember before waking up in the room? Keep messaging me. I am online from my phone so if I log off I'll beback And I will need the name of the professor
Him: I don't want someone to read this and go after my friends. My taxi. My professor was Schraw. Holy crap. She started again. Huzzah, this is going to do wonders for my headache
Me: She who? First name of the prof?
Him: Some woman. I think his name was Tom? he never really told us
Me: OK I need to call in the troops. Hang in there for me.

john:
