Hey guys...who's body is missing? RON.

What character mentioned playing around with ARGs in the past? RON.

Who can manipulate websites? RON.

Maybe he's been brainwashed???????


I;m glad this thing about ron talking about ARGs so much is finally important, because back when i used to bring it up all the time, it kept getting shot down as totally uninmpotant. and you know, it might still be, but i love it all the same!

The text supposedly on the other side of the clipping adds a nice touch of authenticity:

It's from the Isanti County news
Here's the story
http://www.isanticountynews.com/2004/October/27request.html


I don't know if that's important, though, as it hasn't been in the past.[/url]

here's another one folks, links from the splash page:

yet here's a spot

Quote:
Coincide. Suicide. Homicide.

"The truth is unraveling". That's what was scrawled on the wall of Mark Robinson's cell when they found him dead. I just got the call from a contact in New York. He's dead, and I'm responsible.

Out, damned spot! out, I say! All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand.

I thank you for your notes inquiring after my safety. I don't think they can get to me here; they haven't found me so far. All I can do is hole up and pray they don't kill anyone else. Try to solve Mark's website; oh God those were his last words. Diaman - scrape away? Uncover it. The truth below. The ancient terror.

I need a vacation, preferably in a place where less people die.

Stay safe, Ron.

The color of the email address on the splash page has changed in the last few days (from white to green and now red, I think).

No clue as to the significance, but maybe we should see who's actually in control of that address, if it isn't working well for Ed.

sent the following to webmaster@urbanmythology:
Quote:
SUBJECT WAS: "WE ARE GOING TO WIN!!!"
Ed, I have wonderful news. We are this close ---> <--- to the unraveling! we will avenge them. I can't wait to hear from you, so I can tell you not only what we learned, but how we got there!


got this response from his gmail account:
Quote:
SUBJECT WAS: "winning"
TR,

Thanks for your mails today - sorry I didn't get a chance to respond
before now. And double thanks on the comfort - but no matter how much
someone tells me it's not my fault, I will always feel guilty.
Charles, Jaimie, Palmer, and now Mark Robinson - all dead, all had
been involved with something I set in motion. I can't bear to think
of it for too long or I'll get overwhelmed.

How close are you on The Unraveling? That Coincidental page is
annoying, isn't it? Diaman, stomachion, grammata, Archimedes,
formedon, someone sent me. I'm trying to figure out how they all fit.
And what poor Archimedes ever did to deserve the hokey pokey.

Let me know if there's any progress. I'm going to go lie in bed and
pretend to sleep.

-E.V.


now the obvious link here is him asking how far along we are with it, and the subject both being about winning. however, my problem is dumb me sent him like three emails today {one was a warning about the phone call, one was the login info we got from ron for 7thsons, and this last one to the webmaster account} so you see, i made a boo boo. but i am correcting it as we speak. stay tuned folks!

In case any of you didn't recognize, the spot qoute there is from Macbeth, who killed his king.

Unfortunately, looks like Ed is next. Unless, of course, Ed is the killer. I wouldn't put it past him.

Who's the "contact"?

Lady Macbeth is saying this, not Macbeth himself.
"Lady Macbeth ran back to the scene of the crime, to smear the drugged guards with blood and thus incriminate them.
Lady Macbeth begins to sleepwalk, as guilt denied in consciousness erupts in her dreams."

So, this is possibly another hint that Ron is feeling guilty about his culpability in the deaths of the people in the tunnels. Note the reference to Lady Macbeth trying to incriminate someone else. Also, of course, is the fact the Lady Macbeth didn't do the killing, but someone else did - whom she's covering for.

Before we go too far down this path, I'd just like to point out that part of Lady Macbeth's guilt comes from her quest for power and her pushing of Macbeth into a position where he makes the decision to murder the king. As well, the Macbeth quotes are taken from three separate lines in Act V, Scene ii of the play.

Of course, another line to point out from this scene is where Lady Macbeth says: "What need we fear who knows it, when none can call out power to accompt?" This points back to the possibility of Ron being a member of the Seventh Sons.

Ah, the ambiguity. Smile

followup from ed, about the color changes:

Quote:
TR,

Sorry about that! Yes, actually my note was in response to all your
mails. And the secret is - I've been changing the color of the
mailto: link to call attention to when the hidden link changes.

I will be careful - and I will certainly try to play that sound for
Ron at my earliest opportunity. I appreciate your trust!

-E.V.
