The image in the last photo likes like the weather symbol for moderate or heavy freezing rain. I have attached a PDF file (cant save it as a jpeg to upload) look at the image in row 60 column 7. It follows with the "snow" theme from the blogs.

Sorry for double-post. But there's an actual video this time. I nearly messed myself when I heard the sounds near the end. I thought nothing was going to happen but damn. Shocked

http://lostredfire.blogspot.com/2010/10/video-1.html

I can see why he thinks that the video might be accidental, mainly because it's pitch black. But he's a fool if he thinks though sounds were normal. I wonder who/what was dialing the phone? Was it Rachel dialing and the noises came through the phone, or something wasn't happy she was dialing and tried to stop her getting help? Confused

Posted a reply to Red on his blog. Lets see if he responds..

Red- Sometimes people need all the help they can get. There are a few of us out here willing to help. What was it that got you so spooked?



I also had a question about the Zippo lighter. I noticed that there appears to be a letter (possibly "N" or "Z") engraved into the side of it. I posted a comment asking for a better picture of it.

Here having crossed fingers. LOL

Here is what I have so far. Please help me make any corrections to things I have missed or misunderstood.

1. "Reztrust" is a female living and going to school in the UK. She finds a shack in the forest and when she touches it, it burns her hand. She decides to blog about it and when she does she starts to experience other weird unexplained occurrences. Her name is either "Sarah" or "Rachel". I am a little confused on this part as she received an email from "idbecautious" which refers to her as "Rachel" and her friend in another blog refers to her as "Sarah". She got in contact with a Charlene Conroy who works at the town council. Mrs Conroy gave her advice to stay away from the forest and the shack. Anywhooo… Rez is now missing.

2. Her blog is found by her friend Red D (Ready??) or Damon (Male). Red runs the "Spurned Heart" blog. Red is now starting to experience some of the phenomenon that Rez did. Phone calls with nobody on the line, emails from Idbecautious, weird sounds like bugs from his walls and floors. Red found a box of videos and items left behind by Rez. These items included a Zippo lighter with possible etched letters on it, a Hawaiian style lei, and a drawing of what appears to me to be a symbol for freezing rain (although that's really a guess for me). Red gave the box and items to…

3. The owner of the "Lost in the Fire" blog. Not sure of this persons name, although it could be "Brian". This person is actively looking for Rez and is now starting to experience the same weird phenom as the others.

4. Lastly, Idbecautious. Odd email personality who was sending Rez cryptic emails with one or two words in Spanish. I have emailed Idbecautious and said that our friend Rez was missing and thought they would have some info on her whereabouts. I will post any reply I get.

My questions so far are these…

Who is Mrs Conroy and what is it that she knows?

Who is Idbecautious and are they warning people or protecting people?

On the "Burnt Handle" blog there is a picture that Rez took of the park. Why is the photo name different then all the others that have been posted here?? Photo is named.. 3507360763ff0e64f245.jpg

What is etched into the Zippo?

I am sure I will think of more questions but that's it for me right now. Do any of you all have thoughts on this?? I am intrigued by this one and hope it continues.

Whatever happened from the possible meeting between Reztrust and Conroy up until the present time, seems to be what needs filling in right?

I don't know about you guys but I swear I'm getting a non-human vibe of the Idbecautious person/thing. Just not normal.
But even weirder is that this person seems to be menacing and yet is warning. Maybe that's part of the game/their kick.

Yeah I think she disappered either prior to meeting Conroy or before she could blog it. I would like to know more about this Conroy person. Whats her story? why does she seem to know so much about the goings on? What/who is she hiding??

Received an email response fro Idbecautious... Here it is.

Quote:
She's still here, you just can't see her.

Be cautious, I...

Freaky in that this is the first time I have received an email from a character in game. (Wooo Hooo).

Also, new blog post on the "lost In The Woods" Blog. Seems our boy has been having a few questions of his own. Also Idbecautious sent him another email. It is the first few lines of a song called "The Teddy Bears Picnic"

Quote:
If you go down in the woods today,
You're sure of a big surprise.
If you go down in the woods today,
You'd better go in disguise.

For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain because
Today's the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic.

Every Teddy Bear who's been good
Is sure of a treat today.
There's lots of marvelous things to eat
And wonderful games to play.

Beneath the trees where nobody sees
They'll hide and seek as long as they please
'Cause that's the way the Teddy Bears have their picnic.

If you go down in the woods today,
You'd better not go alone.
It's lovely down in the woods today,
But safer to stay at home.

For every bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain because
Today's the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic.

Picnic time for Teddy Bears...
The little Teddy Bears are having a lovely time today.
Watch them, catch them unawares,
And see them picnic on their holiday.

See them gaily gad about.
They love to play and shout.
They never have any care.

At six o'clock their Mummies and Daddies
Will take them home to bed,
Because they're tired little Teddy Bears.



to parphrase Alice and her wonderland... "Creepier and Creepier"

wow...

this one is from before i stopped playing args for a few months..

¬_¬

now i've gotta reread everything again x/

EDIT: caught up on the new stuff, might reread the burnthandle stuff later

you're right, as far as i can tell, except that lost in the fire isn't[yet] experiencing the stuff rez did..

and i hate to be a pain, but i can't help but say: there's a possibility this arg is someone taking the burnthandle arg and running with it, without the original PM's consent[though i hope not]
