Wait... does this mean we have another chance to save Alana?

I love how Nathan just doesn't exist anymore.

So we give Collector our vote plus the secret phrase? Where do we send it?

I imagine send it via the ask-box on his Tumblr.

By the way, has anyone tried messaging the AU Crew* yet about this whole crazy mess?

So, the puzzles have been solved. The end result was this URL here:

http://hiscollector.tumblr.com/notsee

The list is as follows:


AUSTIN BRADLEY
COURTNEY GRAY
TYLER GREENE
JOSHUA HARRIS
ALANA HUDSON
STEPHEN PATRICK

Looks like the people behind this: http://www.youtube.com/user/APCollection

except for Tyler Green and Courtney Gray. But there's still time between now and September, so they might show up in a later video.

EDIT: Collector said that votes sent in after September 1st shouldn't expect to be included, so spread the word quickly.


One of their vids has a comment from a generallemur who seems to know them from school. Might be Tyler or Courtney?

Edit: Isn't Courtney the real life girlfriend of Joshua?

Edit 2: That secret phrase isn't promising. Laughing

New vid from APCollection. More once I get a chance to watch it. Hey, got the update e-mailed to me for once.

Edit: Stephan's dad is gone all the time in this universe too. Could HE be Mr. Collector? Doubt it, but the possibility is there.

Josh is a huge geek, but we knew that already.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Was it Austin who said "The internet killed all my best friends?"


Mr. Collector sent them a rubber ducky! How nice of him!

And a hammer
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
with Joshua's initials on the handle. Oh fuck
, a glove, and a broken cellphone.

They smash the phone with the hammer. That's why I love these guys, they're every PC in every gaming group ever.

^ Mr. Collector is pretty explicit about his past and he mentioned that his friends were killed by angel-spawn soon after he turned sixteen. The list of possible culprits is... pretty narrow.

Edit: Also liked the new vid. It mostly reminds me of the old AG which I don't really mind.

Anyways, who should we all choose?
If this is still like the last universe, then should we keep Alana?

One possibility is temporal shenanigans to go with the inter-dimensional shenanigans, Stephan is his own dad. But yeah, not likely.

Have they given us any way to contact them yet other than commenting to their videos?

Edit: Yes, save Alana. On the other hand, the secret phrase implies that there's no saving to be had, at least not through voting at his site.

Anyone else with me on encouraging them to get rid of that hammer?

Another question, in most situations it would be understandably bad form. But since dimensional bleeding is a stated feature in this game, with IIRC a reference to computer data bleeding over as well, would it be fair game to point the AU crew at the old Angels Game videos?

And a new post by Mr. Collector. Linked to their video and did some general gloating.

Haven't sent in my vote yet, but I probably am going with Alana.

I doubt Collector is AU Stephen's dad. The way the blog popped up right after AG and the fact that he's talked about waking up in bed next to himself, it's (in my opinion) 99% chance of being Angel's Game Stepehen.

If you go back to Josh's twitter [twitter.com/joshrallus] you'll see Stephen slowly breaking down mentally, and start signing things with that ":>" emote, like he does sometimes on the blog

Youtube PMs should work, I think?


Also, regarding Stephen's absentee father: Given what Collector-Stephen wrote on his blog about his father being abusive, anyone wonder if this AU Stephen has a better relationship with his?

EDIT2: If you vote via the ask box, who says you have to pick just one to keep safe? T'is anonymous, after all.

Speaking of the waking up next to himself bit, which Stephan was in today's video with them? I'm worried he may have painted a smile on this universes Stephan and his father.

This is just slightly unsubstantiated theory, but I'm guessing those were from when C.Stephen first showed up in this universe1

The Stephen we see in the video I'm fairly certain is the AU Stephen (henceforth: "Good Stephen," "Not Batshit Serial Killer Stephen" or simply "Stephen"); it seems that C.Stephen is trying to raise suspicions of his AU Self, which coupled with his blog linking the video that it's AU Stephen that he's chosen as his "worthy opponent."

Perhaps a bit of pseudo-narcissism on his part?

One other thing I'm trying to figure out is sort of the timeline for all this; that is, when C.Stephen wound up in this Universe. He indicated in July that he wound up in the other universe a month prior (but gave no indication if he'd wound up back in his). That would place his arrival in late June. A later entry hints that it was the Slenderman that brought him over2 Around that time, he gets assigned by "Mr. Reed" to deal with some paranormal extermination group. Shortly after is when he meets Faceless.

Because, if he met Facelss in the AU... well, that's one more hazard for the crew to have to face [no pun intended]

1 "My existence here should be evidence enough. A month or two ago I woke up in bed with myself, you see, and when I pinched myself I wasn't dreaming."

2 "A man removed of sanity and reality. I became His Collector and finally gave into the madness I had been born with. He moved me to a new playing field. Since then I've been climbing the rungs, trying to get on top. I've killed two-hundred-forty-four people. I've proved myself worthy of a new Game."

Something I just realized, regarding the relationship between AU Stephen and his Father. From C. Stephen's blog:

Quote:
Anonymous asked: so you like adorable animal photos eh?

That I do, anonymous interrogator! I am a huge fan of kittens (as has been previously stated in my blog) as well as rabbits (I tend to call them "bunnies", actually) and pretty much any other small mammal you can think of. My father never let me have pets of my own growing up. He didn't trust me with anything, hated me really. Blamed me for mother's death. Pity. I would go out often to the homes of my friends, as they all had cats.


In this Universe, he has a dog. I suppose from that we can assume they're probably on a more healthy relationship than C.Stephen and his were.

I thought Josh was the worthy opponent. Hence arming him with the hammer.
