 		I'm having a hard time following this one for some reason. Is there more than one game going on in this thread? Is anyone else as lost as I am?

Lessons Too LateShare
Today at 2:42am
Those who hear may not always listen. My lessons came too late. I saw no good in the world and took what I wanted. I saw a world filled with hypocrisy. There was no beauty and there was no good. The feelings of others were never a consideration as I lied and cheated my way to the top of the most important organization around.

Money was all that I wanted. My greed was my god. My survival was all that mattered. Just like it was for everyone else.

One person was painfully honest. One person admitted the difficulty of trying to act in a way that is fair to others and fair to the self. If we want beauty, art, creativity in the world we need to support. If we want the world to be ethical we need to act in an ethical manner. We need balance and honesty in everything we do. I lied to myself about what I did. Don't do as I did.

I don't know if it will work but I am finally free. Thank you


Sounds like a 'goodbye' note at the least....


I wonder if this is referring to the message I sent him??

I'm a theatre teacher, and in all honesty, the whole "art should be free" thing is something I've struggled with for a few years... I wrote quite a bit, and I guess I opened up and was honest with him, hahah. Strange.

Did I fix Maxwell??



Also, vapor, I think we're all just as confused as you are right now. I know I'm pretty lost as to what goes together, and if some of this should even be considered its own separate game. Bah.

Well at least I'm not alone. Embarassed

Anyway, I'm interested in this one and will keep following. Hopefully we'll be able to make sense of it all or see some kind of convergence soon.

Quite honestly we don't know what's going on. We're struggling to even see if there's a game here at all. So far all we have is apparently nonsensical comments.

 		DVD
Heybeasley, I'm a theatre prof too!

Here's my copy of the DVD:
number 28
It's pretty sadistic. I THINK I'm seeing:
Wiele jezykoow: Polish for "many languages"?
Tunger: Danish for "tongues"

Does this say "many languages" in... um... many languages?

Czech to English> mnoha jazyky = Many languages

 		And also Vielen Zungen is "Many Tongues" in German so looks like you're spot on there, The Mirror.

ETA: Google says "maraming mga wika" imeans many languages in Filipino. Laughing

 		Thanks Amandel. I see you were an X-file lab rat too.

I'm totally confused too Vapor.

What Notgordian said yesterday is ringing true for me today though. There is something really whacked about the Jessica/art pathological/pathological truth triumverate. I can't tell if it's the same person, multiple people, real or not real people anymore. Although I like whoever she/they are.

Can you share with us the gist of what you said to Proffitt, Heybeesley, if you feel comfortable doing that. I'd be interested to hear.

Very cool DVD, Mirror. Sort of reminiscent of Hallucinine. Perhaps nostalgia is the theme for today.

 		I love the pathological truth girl.
Did you guys notice all the visual references to Spades in the dvd? Also, in his discussion of the curtain he talks about the Ace of Spades. More Silver Ladder hints?
sorry guys, I'm trying to delete this double post but I can't figure out how on the edit page.

My return address leads to:
St Michaels Lutheran Church
105 4th Street
Little Valley, NY 14755

I google mapped it, street viewed it, and found that it is the same church as in this video:
http://www.pathologicaltruth.com/facsimile/TINAG/TINAGMOV.html

note TINAG in the address!!!

In the video are several quick/hidden frames:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

.15: a blink
.30: maple leaves (sugar maple, I believe)
.45: the words "I prefer the sunrise to the sunset
.59: a cross fade
1.15: A shadow of either hanging feet or jumping feet (wearing sneakers, perhaps framed in an window?)
1.30: Raining on trees. Perhaps the back of a black car?
[/spoiler]

 		As for voxstat, voxstat.com is hosted at the same IP as Silverladder, so make of that what you will. Also, voxstat makes me think VITS - vox=voice and stat->static.

Yep, that would put it right at the church's parsonage across the street.

That was my thinking as well since it has the TV static picture as the avatar and "in the ether" as the location. We're not lab rats so I think we're meant to acknowledge but not dwell on the past.

 		Hi Linda!!!!!
I'll call the parsonage as soon as my phone is charged up

might this:

have the password to this?
http://www.pathologicaltruth.com/test/revenge.html

For the record, I'm not sure if all this is IG or if it's merely unrelated whimsy.
