 		Another word in caps "BLAME"

That makes:

DEAD, THINK, BLAME, HOW THAT HAPPENS, START, OUT, ANSWER.

EDIT: also, the word "START"

EDIT 2: more words. I can't really see this going anywhere, but meh.

 		Ok, don't laugh at me for this, but i just realized that the "four days" challenge lasts for 12 days Razz. So this first stage, all we really are doing is reading this guys tweets and realizing that he's becoming a maniac. The investigation starts the next stage i think.

Me too think that it was just a metaphor, but why the rattlesnake ? It could have been just "snake", the sentence wouldnt have suffered from any lack of sense... btw, mine are just hypothesis

follow me if you feel the same

someones got to do something

got to figure it OUT has to be an ANSWER

Where does all the hurt and pain START?

who's to BLAME?

how did we get here? where people are like this?

city lying coiled like a rattlesnake on my porch

don't even want to set foot outside my door today

you people think you can say "I love my family" and that makes it okay for you to do whatever?

I've heard it too many times

now all we do is talk about – but never actually do it

you know we used to just love each other - and never talk about it

all these people go unloved and we're surprised when they want to hurt people right back

pain begets pain misery begets misery over and over and over

oh "from a broken home" the guy was it says

p11 guys friend had a seizure. instead of calling 911 he stripped him, took photos, laughed. while friend suffered brain damage.

his dad left before he was born - surprise

"i love my son" says his mother. a kid who's loved doesn't burn his house down

I want to know HOW THAT HAPPENS

his grandpa couldn't get out. got 40 per cent burns

p4 got a story about a kid burned down his house because his mom confiscated his cellphone

how did it get like this? where did it all start? whos to blame?

its all just pain and hurt and filth. makes me want to puke

pick up a copy of the Sentinel today. tell me how it makes you feel

can't work today feel sick and too angry cant even THINK

the damn newspaper put me off my breakfast this morning

someone should really do something

news tonight. mayor talking about regeneration of city. you can't regenerate something DEAD

you ever get that you hear a fly buzzing and whining and just can't find it? i have that all the damn time now

rain stopped. hot again. hot and dry and noisy. air stinks. worse than ever

morning after the rain. city clean and clear like a new piece of paper. almost beautiful

raining. at last. always feels like its washing the city clean. means i can sleep too

waited outside Chinese place. dont know what for. kid lives in fleapit over it with mom and brothers. No sign of dad. I went home.

chinese food tonight. opened up the box. two shrimp. just two, in whole thing. took it back. kid behind counter laughed in my face

can't watch the news anymore. makes me too mad. hate this city

neighbours fighting again. feet so heavy on floor. Can't hear words, can just hear the hate. later on they'll make up and will hear that too

you can't fix society with promises and programs. people need to look within themselves again

can't sleep again

too damn hot. wish it would rain

broke down on beltway. guy said drive train shot, 400 bucks. i had no way to know if he was telling truth. you never do

another day in the big city

 		Article from Kotaku:

Quote:
Heavy Rain's Mysterious Mailing

I may be very preoccupied with MAG these days, but I haven't forgotten about Heavy Rain.

The very different PS3-exclusive is set for a February release, but I just received review code for the mail. The disc came in a shoebox that spoke when I opened it.

"Are you prepared to suffer to save your son?" A woman's voice asked.
Tristan, standing near by, looked over at me startled. "What's that mean?"
"They're coming for you!" I said. My smile didn't quite put him at ease.
Inside the box was review code for the game, a bit of fake-blood-dipped origami, four cards showing in-game art and clues, and a copy of The American Tribune, a fake, 4-page broadsheet newspaper packed with stories about the Origami killer.

The postcard-sized art included pictures of Scott Shelby, private investigator, a postcard from Madison Paige, with the image of a motel key taped to it and this:

"After a long day in the studio photographing furniture, I'm left to return to my empty apartment. It's late and I'm still awake. Sleep never comes easy these days. I can't remember the last time I was able to truly relax. I pray for sleep, but fear what may come with it. I could sleep forever."
A third card showed a news clipping of a local architect named Ethan Mars and the final card was a picture of FBI agent Norman Jayden along with a "notice of temporary officer dispatch."

These cards, these characters, are the four playable people of Heavy Rain.
Finally, alternative reality game marketing that will be surpassed by the mystery of the game it's promoting. I can't wait to play this.


Sounds as though the frenzied search to find the Sentinel paper is over. I wish the guy got the box would scan the newspaper at least. It is bound to have some clues. He gets a whole box of shwag and does not share with the hive...unacceptable. Hopefully a more savvy media partner gets a package for us to peruse.

 		I sent an email to Brian Crescente, the editor of Kotaku and the one who received the box, asking him if he could scan the paper or point us to somewhere we could find it online. Let's hope he'll do it! Smile
