 		Well, I'm still assuming that Poor Richard is the band (and that their breakup = "death) ... so I'm thinking there's only one death of a real person.

If you want to email me the file at Phaedra777 at the google email service, I'll be happy to host it and link to it on the wiki.

 		off topic
<off topic> I find it absolutely hilarious that Jefferson's wife's name was Martha Wayles Skelton, that Jeff's girlfriend is Sally, and that I know a girl named Sally Skelton who would be stoned and shamed by the WHSC for possibly collaborating with the Sally mentioned in the club name. And she may be pregnantnow also, for all I know! Perhaps she is connected in some crazy way? Mwahaha!

Forgive me, but all Sallys that I know are just...creepy. There is one other that is nothing like the other two but...well...she makes spontaneous growling and gurgling sounds in class. I stay away from her.

Edit: Just watched the Double Dealer clip and w00t real video of Lyn! That is very exciting to me for some reason! I feel like she's a real person now...and I want this thing to freakin' START even more than before. Dammit.

Wow, lovely music on that one. Could the typewriter sound be morse code?


I've edited down the bass in the music so you can turn it up loud enough to hear the melody without blowing out your subwoofer. Wink It's linked on the wiki here. I'm not sure about the typewriter being morse, but I decompiled the Flash and luckily the typewriter track was a separate mp3 from the dialogue, music and other sound effects. The isolated typewriter sound is also linked on the wiki.

For that matter, the CALL ME A PATRIOT video also has some interesting music, as well as its own possible-Morse-code typewriter track, both linked in the wiki entry.

I haven't done so for ASK QUESTIONS LATER yet.

We're not sure yet. There's a lot of talk about Poor Richard (the band itself) being "dead," but as far I can tell (from DEAD FACE), only one person has died in suspicious circumstances (the Electromocutation of TMAH (the man with the ashy hand)). However, the trailer contains shots of a bloody razor blade and bloody wrist which suggests that either someone commits suicide, or they try to.

As of yet, however, I'm assuming only one actual dead human.

Yes, unfortunately it appears that the only files we can upload to the wiki are image files. But if anyone has a sound or other file they want on the wiki, let me know and I can host it.

How much you wanna bet that EDOC's Sally's last name is Wayles? Razz

There's also video of Lyn in the YOU CAN STOP ANY TIME YOU WANT video.

We're got a dead body with blood in the general area of its wrists in the new
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
DOUBLE DEALER
clip, courtesy of EGo. I'd say the suicide was successful. The introductory text is: "One year and six months BEFORE THE MURDER," and Lyn says the same thing in her video. It's possible that this is another metaphorical reference to the "murder" of Poor Richard, but I think it's more likely to mean TMAH. Which would make the body count at least two.

Didn't the "W" in "Allie W" (the new webmistress on the previous version of the Poor Richard site) also stand for Wayles? I think I won't take that bet.

*grumble*

No one ever wants to take my bets.

If we can continue to keep the video summaries in chronological order (as best we can determine) that would be lovely. Smile

There's also video of Lyn in the YOU CAN STOP ANY TIME YOU WANT video.


Wow. And there is also a movie of her in the Narc clip? HOW did I effing miss this the first time?! o.o I seem to be failing at the 'observing and finding evidence' part of this mystery, and I fear there will be no more puzzles to solve if EGo keeps up this pace. Well, at least the game is supposed to go on until 2008...by then, surely I will have done something right...

So here's a spec. Could the person who commited suicide (the slit wrist body) be the same one who wrote the journal entry saying they 'wouldn't wait for life to deliver on it's promises'?

I'm wondering on this one. So far it looks like OJOJO. O? O(don't know from here). Good question-what the heck would it stand for?

Thank god I never had to work for a telegraph company.

 		Now that we're up to 14 pages, perhaps this game should move out of "News & Rumors."

 		Clayfoot - I agree Smile Moved it here to "ARGs with potential", but I imagine it'll only stay here for a few weeks and get its own home once the gear goes on sale.

And who the heck is Alex?

Alex Levine is still listed as the band's manager. I believe he was the "Al" who got murdered in the original version. For all we know, he may still be TMAH.

 		Ah, thank you.

And I just noticed there's a store in Belgium that's selling the shirts? Looks like a road trip is in store for this weekend ...
