Alas, Ehsan is posting in this thread.

 		Wait wait wait... I'm confused now. Let me get this straight...

So we are helping this dude clear himself of a nasty case of herpes?

Or is that crabs?

Or is that...clams?

And Mike Webbing sounds like something that you'd buy if you're a recording artist... (only $19.99! No payments till 2007!!)

WAIT! I figured it out! This is some sort of Christmas ARG, cuz it has to do with Magical Destructive Crumbs...

So I predict our next email to come from the Mike Webbing: AKA the Gingerbread Man.

SEE!? They read my theory and now they had to go and change his name because it gave away too much.

Clams and Atlanteans and webbed toes, I'm telling you.

Also crabs.

Max, it is very dark.

You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

Rod,

Have you abandoned me again, Rod? Like on the beach outside my townhouse in Buenos Aires? Why, Rod, why will you not listen to me? I can help you with those artifacts...

 		Ok, the PM really does need to read over the rules more carefully. Because the PM is asked to not post in game at unfiction also means you shouldn't ask me to.

Worst of all you guys might think I am the PM..... Oh I hate that thought.

 		So let me get this right. people knew where these artifacts were going. 2 are dead in 'mysterious accidents', the other 3 are
Rod Gomez
Mike Webbing
Max Franz

Max changed his identity (original name Terry) because he thought he was next to be killed and now Webbing has taken him hostage, some how finding him even with his hidden identity, trying to get information from him.

Gomez is catching a plane to Norway from Manchester.

And Max can see a sign ending with pool, so thats either Blackpool, Liverpool, etc or a sign saying |<---- Pool|

 		So has someone bothered to stick pins in the map that correspond to Gomez's travels? That seems to be where they want us to OMG SAVE HIM!

no no no, I believe he said he can see a sign ending in "poo", not "pool". Which reduces our options to Blackpoo, Liverpoo, or possibly baby poo.
