SPEC: Possible New Site

Over in News & Rumors there's been some discussion of a possible new ARG some people have received emails about. One of the decoded emails led to this site:

http://www.livejournal.com/~hugh_inn/

It seems to be a journal from a homeless man, possibly a mental patient. Friday's entry had an interesting in-game reference:

It's cold as a witch's t*t here all of a sudden. I swear, it's hard not to feel like nature itself is out to get you sometimes. It was sunny and warm when I kissed Klepsydra goodbye and now it's windy and chill. I need to find a coat.

Current Mood: cold
Current Music: "Like A Prayer", Madonna


Could this be another in-game site, or is it just someone messing with our heads?

livejournal site

apparently has no connection with ctw yet other than a random reference. i'd say it's someone messing with our heads until we get some link on an already in-game site or from an in-game character email.

Hmm, I dunno. It could be a way of introducing a new character, a character who was a patient at Klepsydra, although granted, it seems to have no 'official' tie-in in the form of a link or some reference in an established ctw site.

If I were a betting man, I would say that it's probably a player-based thing, similar to some of the sites that cropped up during The Beast, or the GenTel Janitor from LockJaw, seeing as how it was leaked (ie: emails to cloudmakers, argn, martha, etc.).

We shall see, but I wouldn't rule anything out, yet.

see other thread

see my other post at http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=7269#7269

i'm not saying it's definitely out of game but i won't consider it in-game until it's directly linked, especially with celia's recent re-appearance.

The first date of their appearance is June 2002. That's a good bit of planning ahead...

And they're using a geocities site. That alone is enough for me to avoid them Wink
