Doh! I forgot RULE NUMBER #1 when it comes to ARGs... run a WHOIS on every site! I'm still shaking off the rust - it's been years since I played one of these...
Well, since most PMs use the 'anonymizer' these days, the WHOIS most often shows up as GoDaddy. It's easy to overlook the WHOIS because of that.
Yeah, I get completely different info when I run a whois on it.

May I ask where you run a whois?
It's just the twentyseven.co.cc and the8thspoke.co.cc are both third level domains. And thus the only successfull whois lookup I've made was on the co.cc site itself. Which gives registrant info I provided earlier.

Mayber edmund montgomery is aidoneus' "man on the inside" . Or maybe even aidoneus himself . . . .
You totally reminded me of a thought I had while trying to sleep last night, could Nathan be Aidoneus' inside man? Maybe the plan went awry and now he's in trouble. I mean, if he went willingly as a 'candidate,' and they looked forward to using his skills, why would they suddenly want to kill him? Again, just thinking out loud.

I think that's why. I ran a whois using the FF whois context menu option but I've just realised it only pulls up the info for the .co.cc but and not the specific address. I think I'm rusty too!

well, also tried to "whois" on other websites but got nothing...
Also tried to find a source to "reverse-whois" all websites from Mr. Montgomery but didn't find a service that could do this (except for one which costs about 80 $/search)
@ env: I ask myself too, what Nathaniels skills could be and if they got something to do with the diggings in the "special" territory of St. Ignace...
(The reference to "special skills" always remind me of Walt...)

"candidate" reminds ME - do you think we need to try and find the phoenix again? I look for him half-heartedly here and there, but maybe we should be looking harder? He and @simeonhobbes have been exceedingly quiet....

That's right, other websites either just don't recognize the domain name (cuz it's a third level one), or give you the registrar info (co.cc that is). That's why www.co.cc would be the right place for a whois lookup.

The way they refered to Nathan's skills - what he "can do" always struck me as referring to something supernatural-ish. No point here. just the feeling I got....

What do we do now? This is the first ARG that I've ever played so I'm a little slow when it comes to some of this stuff.

Got that working now. Has anyone tried emailing the8thspokeSPLAT gmail.com (from the whois info) or would that not be IG?

The email address was listed on The 8th Spoke website so is fair game - I think most have us have tried emailing it!
No one has got a repsonse though...
