welcome, ken.. and thanks for helping.

i'm still curious about those numbers -- i do think there is something there. (and about the idea that the PM or his buddies (not directed at you, ken) are using forum space as game space. i'm not a big "rule" follower but it would get very confusing if this space were used for anything other than player interaction)


I have a slightly different take on the matter given the replies of Decima. I think she is OOG, yet came here primarily to make herself known to whoever is acting as the "PM", in case it is the person she thinks it is. In agreeance to a previous post, a simple "Please stop contacting me, I'm not in-game" would have been sufficient, but instead she chose to continue on and on about it, almost making sure she would be noticed by anyone lurking the topic. To the best of my knowledge, only one person from here even spoke to her, so I'm truly not seeing her aggression towards us as justified. If you truly wish that people stop harassing you, I recommend you contact the e-mail address we found and ask them to alter their actions. We, as players, don't have that control. I would also recommend not attaching yourself to something that seems to be brought up as a game if you wish to be disconnected from that or it would only make sense in or out of game that you have a connection. I say that b/c I truly feel the people that are contacting you are the same type of person you are, in that they had some type of "bond" with this person and have now sensed what is going on.

We are not a vicious community that preys on innocent people. We are led places by those that control the game. How well that works, I feel, is directly correlated as to how the person(s) set it up from within the game. Everything we check or people we contact we post about, in order to NOT contact OOG people or continue to examine OOG areas, it serves us no purpose.

Ken, thanks for your willingness to help. I, for one, wouldn't want you to do anything that you are uncomfortable with, so please don't feel an obligation (to me, if nobody else).

PS - This post reflects my personal opinions and only those. I would never attempt to speak for anyone else. Your reactions to my opinion should not bear burden on anyone else but me. I fully accept responsibility for my words and stand behind them completely.

Hey guys--site was updated! There's a gate now. But when I entered "Clockstop the Whys" as the password, I just got the same image...

Is that all that's supposed to happen today? Bummer if it is.

EDIT: "A message from Qu13en 9tales" arrived in my inbox today.

Qu13en 9tales wrote:
Let us speak of events transpired thus far.

The being 'sparkrent' has managed not only to awaken, but also unbind, Qu13e. He then lured those from the Realm of Earth into breeching it, allowing splinternails the opportunity to escape.

It is imperative we learn who sparkrent is, as well his motives behind this act of treachery.

Clockstop the Whys has urged you to find Random Martin, but I am here to tell you - now that you have help from the Realm of the Living - you next need help from the Realms of the Dead Undead.

If and when you and your friends are ready, I will lead you astray to where the end begins. There you must contact the Keeper of Things; he is one of the very few who may freely traverse the Realms of Qu13e. When you have located him, give him Clockstop's message - and then give him something that he does not have.

If he is pleased, he just may secret you inside.

After you have entered, search for the Realm of Oboenai - and me. I will be waiting.

Already ghosts are being resurrected, haunting the living.

Now is your chance to turn back.

Qu13e is where things are meant to be forgotten.

Depend on each other, but trust no one.


So it looks like we have to 1) Find some way for Qu13en 9tales to lead us to "where the end begins". Might happen today? More may happen before the day ends. 2) Contact the Keeper of Things. 3) Give him Clockstop's message and "something he does not have".

I hope we end up with more info than this eventually, but hey--we're getting somewhere.

Apologies if this has been posted before. New to all these ARGs and still getting used to the pace of them.

I just went through all 26 pages, too, and would love to get involved in this, since it seems like it's still just starting out. I've lurked a lot in the past, but never really helped solve an ARG before, so i don't know how helpful I'll actually be.

So far, I've just shot off an e-mail to the Oboenai address, asking about Random. I'll post again if I get anything useful/new out of it.

EDIT: Hm... would have seen that the reply was already posted, except the page is freaking right out. Sorry about that. Smile

OK, seeing as how we seem to be getting more people active instead of lurking, we are in DESPERATE need of organization. Everyone sending e-mails off without seeing what others are doing just seems a bit overkill to me when we could work together and do most of this as a team. For those of you that were here at the beginning, you'll remember at first we were full throttle and b/c we passed details by we missed the biggest clue. My fear is that we are in jeopardy of doing it again. If anyone has ideas I'm up for some type of solution, I'm all ears (or eyes, depending on your perspective). My first inclination would be someone setting up a META(or WIKI, I'm still not "hip to the lingo") site. I personally dont know how to really, but I'll help any way I can.

I started one since it seemed easy enough, though im not the best when it comes to excellently written docs so everyone is encouraged to add what ever they see important. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qu13e
