 		Does anyone think that the weird e-mail is our clue here? That maybe this is what John was talking about?
If not then I have a feeling one of us will get something from John that is going to be our next piece of the puzzle.

 		Just received this e-mail from Cecil. Edited out some double-brackets before and after every line as they were interfering with the contents.

SECURITY BREACH

Access Chamber 555?
Y/N


Accessing http://chamber555.yolasite.com/ leads nowhere. I'm not sure if I should answer the e-mail with a 'Y' at this point.

 		Hey so uh I begged forgiveness but might have thrown John and several of you under the bus. I am sorry but sometimes we need someone to play the betraying asshole to make things go even further.

We'll see what happened but for now we keep working on things we get.

Nah, don't worry. If someone can manage to get on their side, we're good.

I, myself, decided to reply to Cecil with this:
Quote:
And what if we don't? I'm not about to beg for your forgiveness. I'm not a lowly dog.


which he replied to with:
Quote:
Yes, yes you are. Anyone affiliated with Mr. Smith is nothing more than a dog. We are a reputable company in the business of human advancement, and your childish "hacking" or the like is not helping us at all. If you continue to back him up, you will meet the same fate as him.

 		Maybe my asshole action wasn't as bad as I thought seem Cecil doesn't believe a word coming from my sincerest text.

Quote:
Have you heard of worse things then death? You dont' have to kill to feel pain. You don't even have to hurt the body. The mind is a very weak object my friend. In no way should you ever hope to rescue your friend. You can deny it all you want, but I know you are only wanting to go under because you want to help him. You have no hope, my friend.


That was my e-mail back. Next course of action advice anyone? Keep going try to convince him I am not doing this to save anyone or uh turn around?

 		After reading it over, I thought the message I received might prove useful.

MR GRAHAM IS DEAD. Never make such outlandish claims again. I know you're responsible for the security breach, and I'll do everything I can to prove that you are responsible.

As far as chamber 369, I know you were affiliated with it's inhabitant. Mr. Smith will not be a hindrance to my plans, and neither will you. I would stop accessing Illegal areas of Intermine, and forget about us. You'll be glad you did.

Sincerely,
Cecil Masters

Was John Smith the inhabitant of 369, or was it Marshall Broderick? Do we know anything about the latter?

"OOG"
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Marshall Broderick is listed as a character on the cast page of interminestudios.com, but I don't think he's been introduced in Haunt yet. Not that it matters, since it looks like they're scrapping Haunt for that other project.

That's OK! I agree with Serpent. You can be our own personal weephun! I say paint a horrible picture of John Smith. It's not like you can dig yourself a deeper grave with Mr. Masters at this point.

Waiting for more pages/clues to open up I guess. I think we need to try to make two-way contact with Mr. Graham.

Well John Smith is a pretty generic name. Maybe Marshall Broderick is his real name but chose to use John as his alias for now?

 		My reply to Cecil's rage email:

Quote:
You going to do to John what you did to Mr Graham?


His reply:

Quote:
I did nothing to Mr. Graham. Mr. Graham died of a rare colon cancer, as stated on the website for Intermine Laboratories. Please do not convince yourself otherwise.


I don't remember reading that anywhere though.

And a new e-mail from John Smith titled We are lost:

Quote:
SENT: == 23 hours ago
In the Darkness we lose what we hold dear
Lost, from all who could possibly see her
I am here, I am here, I am here
I am Alive...I am Alive...
In this BRAVE NEW WORLD...
from which I have been trapped.

My time is drawing near. He's on his way.
When the time comes, I need you to know what to do.
Remember the emails. Remember the emails.
remember me. remember what you need to do.
First, however, test it out on the others.
The many, many others who are frozen.
320, 354, 124, 678, 526, 635, 534, 879, 100, 340, 369

Remember the emails...the oh so corrupted emails...

 		After asking about Chamber 555 and the Evo Program, I heard back from Cecil. Sounds a little ominous, and is missing the formal greetings and signature of previous e-mails. I should note I'm in contact with Mr. Masters as a civilian interested in the Cryogenics program who is growing more and more alarmed by these incoming, 'crossed' e-mails.

There is nothing to worry about, everything is taken care of.

 		It appears that dear Cecil has a god/messiah complex.

Your petty threats don't really phase me. It's only to be expected by a seemingly corrupt businessman with too much power.

Cecil Masters to me
show details 9:32 PM (8 minutes ago)
Seemingly Corrupt? I'm as perfect as one can get. I wont let a top dweller judge me, I am immortal!

Moth to Cecil

"...I'm as perfect as one can get.....I am immortal!"
That phrase right there shows how power has corrupted you. Any sense of morals that once existed in your mind is probably gone. As for me being a "top dweller" as you say, I would rather be that than a bottom dweller like you. You feed off of anything and anyone you can get. You're truly pathetic. No wonder John Smith wanted our help. You've probably morphed the whole company into something completely barbaric.

Cecil Masters to me
show details 9:39 PM (0 minutes ago)
If by "Barbaric", you mean flawless, then yes. Very Barbaric. I will achieve what was before impossible when Graham was alive. I WILL ENACT PROJECT JERUSALEM...

 		Wow I got a million emails while I was at work. Everyone solved them all!
Nice work on the key... wow literally in front of us 0.o

Latest emails:
From John a long poem and the important part I think:
