So strange about the yelp page. really.

Also, got a DM response from Gabby....

Why would it be in the news? LOL it was their email that broke Smile


Yeah, uhm, i don't know enough about IT, but I don't think it takes an over night to fix an email system. someone else want to give it a try?

Not sure what you mean by "keep looking up stuff about Lauren" we haven't found anything about her at all yet. that lauren on yelp was an odd coincidence. Unless you can fake the dates of reviews on Yelp, her reviews started in 2009. As of right now, there are no google results for the movie theater - i'm going to assume they didn't make one?

I'm feeling less and less like this is "playable". Sad


If the bank in question runs its own e-mail server, then yes it could be an overnight fix (Virus causing crashes, restructering the protocols, etc.

And I have to agree. This is seeming more and more like an inside look into the story rather than a game to solve.

I got a little shout out. After previously asking Gabby if she was doing commercial work yet, and expressing my adoration for her sketches {really, I do love them, I can't wait to find out who the artist is} Today I got:

@GabsByDesign This one goes out to my friend @pixieyelsraek! http://tmblr.co/Z-iBfuRw0pIP


I responded quite honestly

@gabsbydesign Thinking too much Sad - So... I've been thinking about something... don't tell, but I'm a little worried about… http://tmblr.co/Z-iBfuRwhBdL


The link takes you to her tumblr blog where she posted this:

Thinking too much Sad
So… I've been thinking about something… don't tell, but I'm a little worried about Rob. I mean, about Rob and me. I know he took Friday off to spend all together with the family… and I loved that!! But sometimes I think… with his hours and everything… I know emergencies happen and all…

It's just, yesterday a friend of mine said she thought his hours were a little suspicious. I mean, I'm not accusing him of anything! Definitely not! But, well… I just worry.

And the thing is… I just try so hard, and I think I would just die without him. Sad Sad It's going to be OK, isn't it? I'm just a worrier is all. That's all it is.



So I decided to be an enabler and send this to Rob:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hey Rob,

Don't mean to be an alarmist, but me thinks you need to either work on saving your marriage or get a divorce man. Just based on my own knowledge of the IT world combined with the activities I'm seeing on your and your wife's twitter feeds, I can see big troubles in the future for you if you don't.

Either way, Gab's picking up on the fact that something is wrong. Her tumblr blog post: http://gabsbydesign.tumblr.com/post/29975427541/thinking-too-much


So we'll see if this affects anything. Pixie's Twitter shoutout implies that we might be able to affect the game. We'll see if I turn out to be the badguy for getting Gabs killed or the bad guy for destroying their marriage. I didn't see a way to tell Gabs that there was something going and hopefully the way I worded the e-mail isn't too heavy handed in the "We know you're screwing around on your wife" thing.

ETA: His response:

Quote:
Thanks for your concern, but my personal life is my own business.


Ah well, we'll see where this goes...

Well, if the vimeo "trailer" NCFragola found yesterday is any indication, Gabby won't be the dead one. Which is great, because maybe sge can make me that snowflake dress from jail to help pay lawyers fees. Wink

I wouldn't even know where to begin with this one.... "Lauren R" is pretty common. I've known 4 Lauren's with "R" as last initial in my life so far that i'm aware of. if there is something we are supposed to find, I see no hints to it.

What we do have however is a new item in the memory box. A napkin with a phone # on it that says call me. Susan Lucci's voice over says "Rob has a history with women. Oh, don't worry, this one is months and months old." I swear I could hear the wink in her voice. Number is

518-203-1430
which leads to a voicemail box with 1 message from december 23rd, 2011 9:54 pm.

It has a woman and rob talking about the woman missing rob for the holidays while he is home with his wife.

Hmmm... I'd probably say this has been going since they got married then.

Might be just me.

For those of you who may not be able to call the phone number, here is a transcript of the bits that I could hear...a bit of it cut out

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"You have one new message. Message sent on December 23rd, 2011 at 9:54 pm
(Laughter)
Female: Stop it. Stop! Dont you need to be getting home? What would your wife think?

Rob: (unaudible) Like I care. (unaudible)

Female: You really know how to sweet talk a girl. Go on, go on! I will see you after Christmas. After my lonely lonely Christmas.

Rob: (unaudible) I will be lonely without you.

Female: But you will be with your wife right?

Rob: Yeah, my point exactly."

Hello hello thread! We got an update here. Gabs posted pictures of the BBQ on google +

Now there really isnt much. Lots of pictures of just Rob grillin up some burgers and dogs. Three picture of each of the kids. But on some of Rob's pictures there are 3 women chatting up on the background. I can probably think those might be their mothers (Gabs' and Rob's) but there's a third one you cant really see.... Maybe that's our mystery lady?
