Kind of following this one, sort of trying to get back into ARGs, so we'll see if I can contribute to this. Hello everyone! Very interesting so far.

Hey Zobot!

Also, Hawthorne...I don't think the PM will respond. ARGs don't usually work that way...at least not this kind, so far it's been low-interactivity. Worth a shot, but I doubt you'll get anything back. Just ask a direct question. (i for one want to know who the person running the site is and how he has access to these events before they happen, ect.)

Which brings up...did we ever find out how the family died? We have a lot info overall, but nothing really solid on any one front, it's really spread out. We should set up an irc and go theory crazy XD

Yeah we do know how the family died. According to Brandon they were hit by a drunk driver. If you meant that we don't know anything more specific, you are right. We don't. We don't know for sure that Brandon is telling the truth either. We do have a lot of spread out info over a broad range of topics. The most developed part of the story is that of Peter and Brandon.

As for your thing about the mythology, what specifically pointed you towards Welsh mythology and not another of the possibilities?

The mention of if someone wants to read up on Welsh? Just because I'm more inclined to research Irish, and it would save some work for me.

If you mean about the Celtic mythology in general, then it's because of the constant use of symbols/names/ect from those mythologies combined with a hunch. XD

A little more Googling pulled up the fact that the Boise State University chapter of Sigma Chi Beta uses something called the Sisyphus Event as a "non-ritual pledge activity". This is probably completely unrelated, but I wasn't aware that anybody had ever used the phrase Sisyphus Event before. I also found this https://www.iafe.org/html/SisyphusEvent3-4-08.php I didn't know that people already called things a Sisyphus Event. What do these people mean with this phrase?

Hmmm. This looks like a departure from the Irish words from before, but:

I think this makes E the lark in our story.

There's a new, two page document titled "Alan Wright 2003" at http://www.thesisyphusevent.com/#!464b/c1p8x (full link not working-sorry) "Verum" is latin for true.

Hmm... Verum really seemed to believe Stephanie was in the room with him, but she proved she was out of state at the time...
Could our featureless humanoids be shapeshifters of some sort?
Also, unless Brandon is a ruthless murderer, he probably isn't our Fisher King (FK). But with all the mocking and possible impersonation, who knows.
Finally, just noticed that c1p8x is base 64 for sZ if that means anything to anyone.
