Did anyone else get contacted by him?

I got called on the phone... a bunch of "help me!", "oh noes!" type stuff, and then he said the password was 37. Then, a few minutes later I got back down to my computer and saw he IMed me...

It looks like http://www.freewebs.com/hbellupefire/joey.htm has been altered. He said he would be in the shard at the same time tomorrow,

He requested that we locate the "command" in "the plains" on his site.

You see that little mark, way up there near the surface of the water? Yeah, that's my depth. haveatit. I can log in and present any answer people want me to.

[Edit: removed any refrences to Bluefire PM being in chat, as it was actually Bluefire the Unficiton user. DOH!]

My first inclination would be to try keywords from earlier in this trail before branching out.

Password thoughts:

Could the password be anything to do with the updates Code from the Joey.htm source, namely the part:

Um, I'm sure better minds have already figured this out, but in "My Fair Lady" it is said that "The Rain in Spain Stays Mainly in the Plain."

It's a speaking exercise. So maybe "plain" is the password you're looking for... ok back to lurking on this one...

edit, forgot the .htm at the end, so go to plain.htm... ok, back to the two args I'm already brain-smushed into Wink

Ok, since I still seem to be the only one who's going to the shard - I'll try to be there in a couple hours to give the command.

Note: I am at work right now, getting onto UO will cause a small amount of stress between me and my bosses - if anyone else can do this I will appreciate it. Bluefire showed up at the Britain Bank yesterday.

(OOC: and for a joke, pretend you're still figuring out what the command is - He'll wait up to 10 minutes, and watching him interact with other characters begging for in-UO stuff is pretty funny.)

A new IM conversation! I'm afraid I wasn't very helpful, but at least we've got some good info from him:

Hey, awesome. I love things like this. I'll keep watching. Not so many people as the others, so the puzzles won't be solved right away, nor will they require a bachleor's degree like some of the Beast puzzles...
