 		Another thought I had, and maybe I missed this...

Will's page says he's not taking donations, but will if someone asks him to.

Has anyone asked him to, to see what he would say?

Yeah, I did a while back. He spewed something about not being arsed to set up a paypal account. Not sure if there is a plot device there.

 		Okay, that's fair.

When I asked for my new task, I snuck in a request for him to tell me something we don't already know. The reply was:

"the Fourth sang me a Paromnetiara"

hmmmm

And yet, he's managed to get out, as far as we know. But Lizzy couldn't get out after hearing the song.

Also, as far as I know, Paromnetiara means fate. So this doesn't make sense to me. And Blue, remember the Fourth is going to sing to you too. Don't become the next Lizzy .... Wink

 		*Snip*

I have no idea what happened there. I will use this space for when I next have something useful to say.

 		I asked him what the Paromnetiara is and got the response:

"the Paromnetiaraet were made by the Fourth
they will come to pass
his song for me from long ago has not yet come to pass"

With what you said before, that just makes me think of The Fates, as in Clotho, Atropos and Lachesis. Maybe the Glass Heaven has an equivalent? Or maybe I'm reaching.

I just got the all green "Do you believe" question when I asked for my third task. Do I just say yes? I don't want to screw it up here.

You just say yes. Also that makes a lot more sense. Since this religion is all about threes, perhaps the three "Fates" made by the fourth are the one to Ore, the one to Lizzy and the one to Blue.

Dear Namastane,

I've been following your posts here. We don't have a moderator, but I think someone should explain a few details to you about how this thread has been going on, so here I am.

First, we've been working REAL HARD on this ARG. All of us. Everyone who's here is collaborating. Collaboration is key to us solving this game.

We do welcome newcomers, like we welcome you, but everyone who's got here after we did (*seeing* the thread first does not mean you were *here* first) at least took their time to read the thread, every post, and ask pertinent questions or add pertinent comments.

Unfortunately you did not act like that. You just jumped in here out of the blue, your first post was somewhat insulting to all of us who are involved in the game, and then you say one of the words in the last letter was not what we had read, without EVEN checking the PDF I made with the alphabet Smile Now that's not nice, is it?

We are a group and we've been working TOGETHER. If you don't wanna read the whole thread, the wiki, the blog to catch up with us, please refrain from posting stuff that will not help in any way.

Also, if you had read the thread, you'd see that we have been posting the FULL emails we exchange with the GH people, like questions and answers, plus Ore's hidden messages. So your last post made no sense for us AT ALL. They said that in response to what exactly? And what is your current status in the game?

We don't need that just because we suck, but because every email exchanged with any player here has messages for ALL the players, especially the advanced group, which is trying to move on so all the others can move on as well.

We'd appreciate it if you'd just respect us as the diligent players we have been. That way we can help you.

We count on your collaboration.

Blue

 		mspixieriot, I see that you messaged Will on Twitter. The only problem is we can't see your reply because your twitter is a closed feed. To solve this problem, would you mind posted all your twitter messages to him, to this thread as well Smile

Thank you, and good work catching up so far Smile

 		Sorry I've been away for a while guys. Real life stuff going on. I hope to be back around later tonight. If there is anything I can help you with please let me know what you'd like me to be working on. I haven't received an email since the "day of no contact" email.

And for the record, I agree with andrekka.... if you don't want to read 20 pages of thread you really aren't ready to play args. There have been times when I have read through almost 100 pages of thread to embark on a journey that I may or may not have any input on. I think this forum's most important unwritten rule is: LURK MOAR.

 		Don't worry Jain - we have compiled almost all the important stuff on the wiki (there are links in the thread if you need them) and we are being good about updating on the forum, too, I think. If you feel out of the loop on anything please just ask someone from the first generation/chosen or come into IRC and we'll fill you in!

Just like we'd do for newcomers, too. I think we have a great team here, but if there's one thing we've learned it is that this is a TEAM EFFORT. This game does not function if we don't work together, so it is not good for "solo" players. If you don't share the info we will never crack it.

 		Borja's Theory
This is a theory from Borja (A.K.A D Zombar) which we were discussing.

Quote:
Yes, I've noticed nimpik has a similar word structure as polish and Swedish language. By word structure Imean the way the words are spelled and build off each other. In both polish and swedish folklore there's a huge stressed importance on the number 3 and morning,day, and night are represented by a group of sisters as are the fates.
The fates have been known to be presented as Birth,life,death and sometimes they are presented asdifferent aspects of the human condition or the way the world works. Perhaps our group has some knowledge of this and are playing off it? It certainly would be interesting if that was indeed the case.


Just thought I would post it here for all the see and reference.

It does seem a pretty solid theory as to where the inspiration for all this was gained. How this helps us is unclear at this time.
