Oh so clever looking up my screen name on the internets.....sorry babe, huge fail. I'm beginning to wonder though if maybe we should be calling someone to get you some help. Clearly there are some mental issues going on here.

there are some legal issues here as well now.


Ya, I'd say so. This is all getting a little out of hand.

 		Getting back to solving now....
Does anyone notice that the lamp over the table is gone at the end and when the lightening strikes the chain (electricity) and goes into Parrot and changes him into looking more like Crothers with the peg arm, leg and eye patch and hat. Then we realize he looks like Tutty from the picture the Captain has. Makes you wonder if there is a lighted sign with a parrot on it somewhere wearing a hat maybe near the treasure location.

Another thing....... when Mulligan falls through the ceiling out of the crow's nest the stuff that comes down with him is foam like from a foam mattress and wood like from a bed. It is not just broken boards from a ceiling. Remember Tutty's bed? The headboard splintered when it was shot. The headstones in the cemetery from the Monkey Business episode remind me of Tutty's headboard. They both have writing on them. So weird that the Crothers Parrot has a splintered piece of wood sticking out of his head. The parrot even asks if he has wood sticking out of his head. What can it mean? We are suppose to follow the bird right. Maybe we need to follow Mulligan in what he says and also the bird in the episodes. He hangs with Mulligan a lot I noticed. I wish we had a transcript of Mulligan's remarks and what the bird does and maybe we can solve this thing.
Can we discuss this?

 		You're done, one way or another.
I'm not a moderator specific to this game, but a player has contacted me and in an otherwise peaceful landscape lately this is becoming a problem for me too.

As already explained by a fellow mod here, the simple tenet by which things are done here is Play Nice. I like to add to this when necessary 'or don't play'. If you can not work this out on your own, you may be assisted in comprehension.

Posting of personal info and harassment is not taken lightly. You are not so invisible and anonymous as you think, and if you do something illegal here, there's a thing called a subpoena that can get your info from your ISP and all other online parties involved.

Simply put, cool it. For some of you it may already be too late, I'll let the admins sort you out. Otherwise, stick to the game, Play Nice, or don't play.

Sonic: Smart move. I learned that quick.

Udmbas, David, Mlssry: Everytime we let it go..someone like you decides to put your 2 cents in and complain about it some more. Shut up.. mind your business...and keep it moving, and you won't have to worry about it.

PS: Pretty Hypocritical that all of this is coming from a few of you who chased SPYGUY Sailor off the board, because you had dumb comments about every post he made, and you cliamed he was wasting space. Hmmmm...


You're right, it's really not my business. I was just trying to let you know how you were coming across. It's whatever. Moving on...Next

Wow yeah I was trying to be cool and progress things but screw it people wanna be rude now I see why SpyGuy, FellowTraveler, and GeorgeKaplan all left and the 3 of them had better ideas than just about everyone else on here combined.

Mlssry is prolly 50 and has 20 cats
David prolly bags groceries and UNMBDwhatever isnt he the same clown that professed I AM LEAVING THE BOARD weeks ago.

Dang I shouldnt have said "A/S/L"
should have said

"HOW MANY OF YOU PLAY DUNGEONS & DRAGONS and ULTIMA ONLINE ON A REGULAR BASIS"


I'm not going to tell you to mind your business cause I didn't. So it really is my fault. However, I really don't understand what all the noise is about. If I was actin' up, and someone called me out on it, I'd just man up and say, my bad. I'm just sayin', I didn't mean to single anyone out, but quite a few people are saying things to make themselves seem childish. Right now Bill, you are one of them. Don't get mad. It's true. Say whatever you want about me. I don't care...It's funny to me...You are actually proving my point.

See, I tried to tell you guys... it wasn't just me being a puppet-nazi. There's rules around here. Smile

 		Cemeteries
Annnnywaaay...

I was also thinking about cemeteries more. EC Segar, the Popeye creator, was buried in Woodlawn Cemetery in Santa Monica, CA. Reason enough to think they're pointing to Woodlawn in NYC? I tend to think the angel statue isn't much of a key, because those are pretty ubiquitous in cemeteries. (Although usually they're crying, and this one isn't. Hm.)

On a more random tangent, I noticed Tom's fave Tom Jones song is Delilah (in Ep 5), which made me think Samson, and Son of Sam...and Christine Freund, one of the Son of Sam's victims, is buried in Linden Hill Cemetery, which is at the end of Dekalb Avenue. This I realize is making some _very_ loose associations, but it's the best I could muster working off the idea that Dekalb is the Port of Cortland. (Uh, that and there's an Applebee's right above the Dekalb stop! Mostly joking.)

Son of Sam could also point to other various parts of Queens, where women were killed. BUT I also think maybe it's just funny that Tom likes Tom Jones, and the end. I only mention it here in case someone else has gone down this road and dug up more/different.

 		So it's been about a week and a half since I sent off my Episode 6 order form, and I've yet to get anything. I was pretty confident at the time I sent it out that it was legit; it just made too much sense to be a red herring. (Why include a visible address in that ad but not in the others?) But now that a number of people have acted in ways that have made me seriously unwilling to take their word for anything, I'm curious: is there anyone on the forum who a) has gotten a physical General Anesthetic Tooth Cleaning Workout Kit, b) is willing to divulge, if not the contents of the kit, at least how long it took for it to arrive, and c) hasn't been outed as a troll in the last few days?

I sent something out on the 26th and have yet to receive anything. I had to take a break from the hunt for a bit to just step away and come back with a clear head, and was waiting for it to arrive.

 		"gifts"
What I posted was all I had as "proof".

That there is a Wyoming address, and that the puppeteers have a friend who comes from Wyoming. I found it to be enough circumstance to mail something out, so I did... over three weeks ago.

I've received nothing in return.

There are transcripts of every episode that FellowTraveler banged out and posted awhile back...on the main forum under "transcripts/maps".

As for the foam ... I dont know if thats so much a clue with the foam as much as it was supposed to resemble debris falling from the ceiling. Perhaps foam was used as to not crush the pirates with actual debris; just an assumption though
