New post on Jessicat's blog.

Someone just threw a rock threw my window. It almost hit me in the head!


Worrying! I hope we can do something fast.

At least this one doesn't have a note dripping in some corrosive substance tied to it... At least, as far as we know. Hoping that Jessica updates again soon to tell us more about the incident.

I've sent Jessica an e-mail asking her to check the rock out for anything strange, but warned her to wear gloves or wrap her hands in something.

Hopefully she will either post on blog or answer back.
If she answers direct, I'll post her reply

Hex

Edit: Why do I get the feeling we have no where near enough info to save her?

I know it just doesn't feel like we're being given enough info to make a difference.

Agreed. But maybe this will help...

Got a reply from Nicholas today.

Nicholas,

Myself and an interested party have run into TXKKXT before. Why are you asking about him? You can send me an email at ironmoss(at)gmail.com.

We have reason to believe that this person is very dangerous. Please be careful.

Interested parties? What?

The other comments that you've received on your blog are members of said party. We'd very much like to help you figure out this person is, because we're looking for the same thing.

We don't know that much about TXK KXT, but what we do know is rather unsettling. We believe that he terrorized and murdered a person named Robin Thatcher, who we communicated with through Twitter. TXK KXT sent him haunting notices, reminding him that he was being watched. He even threw a rock through Robin's window. Attached to this rock was a note that was soaked in some sort of irritant. After opening the note, Robin's hands started burning. He decided to move to a hotel and call the police, hoping that TXK KXT would lose track of him. Apparently, he didn't. We haven't heard from him since.

Later, we came across the blog of a girl named Jessica (http://imjessicat.tumblr.com). It seems like TXK KXT has chosen her as his next victim. He has already harassed her multiple times, and we think that he is preparing to kill her as well. We're doing all that we can to help her out, but the best we have been able to do so far is offer moral support. We are hoping that we will be able to stop TXK KXT from killing again.

I tell you all of this for two reasons: To warn you to keep your distance from him, and to ask you help. We need you to tell us everything that you might know about whoever TXK KXT is, and tell us how you came across him.

The sooner you respond, the better. What you know might be able to save a life.

Thank you.


Will post again when I get a response. Really hoping that Nicholas knows something we don't, cause as far as I can tell, we've been given pretty much jack squat to work with here.

Holy. S***. This is the second game in like a month that I've been playing that has ended up like this.

An IG website in what appeared to be a completely separate game turned out to be registered to txkkxtSPLATgmail.com. (The website is gone completely now -- the domain is registrable. It looks like it was up for less than 48 hours.)

Is there a point to all your activities, or are you just killing time?

Cross-posting from the other thread...

-=O=-

In thinking about it, this doesn't make any sense.

Game #1 is a present day guy hunting victims through social networks and whatnot.

Game #2 is a technology company that got hacked three years from now.



Considering game #2's website has vanished... Could that email address in the registration have been an error?
