Well, this is it. I'm just now walking out toward whatever is waiting for me at Gillit Road. I'll be in touch soon.

Wish me luck.

he might not be dead, theres always kidnap and interrogation. or he might escape by some elaborate series of lucky chances, or the person might actually be honest.

Or could feed kurt false information and pick him off at a later time, after watching him.

Nah, Kurt'll survive. He's Kurt!

Besides, you're assuming that the Eeeevil person at Gillit Road knows who to expect... if they knew who was meant to be coming, surely they just could have sent them a personal message? Instead, maybe Kurt can blag it. "Well, well, well... our latest operative is a member of the CRT, eh? A most excellent acquisition... Bwa-ha-ha!" Et cetera.

I think the more interesting question, incidentally, isn't "what if Kurt gets killed?". but "what if Kurt kills someone?"

Anyway: "..." indeed. Fingers crossed!

I really don't understand why most people think he's going to die!

1 - The message was hidden where only people on Earth could hear it
2 - The meeting is in Perplex City (somewhere Earthlings cannot go)

So please tell me why someone (probablly in PPC) would hide a message in the hope someone on Earth would decode it and tell their friend back in Perplex City about it. The 'messenger' would have no way of knowing who this perplexian would be - but seemingly you all think he is a psychopath who has gone to all this trouble just to murder someone!

A message sent to Earth about a meeting in PXC... would entail us contacting and sending someone vital and trusted in our operations.

Therefore: Crying or Very sad

He might make it back... maybe... I hope so...

Of course something tells me this will all be directed into more anti-Earth sentiments. First "Proudhon" in the streets, promoting an Earth socialist leader, and sending a member of the CRT to his doom would add up to a fairly ugly picture of the good' ol Third Rock.

Of course, such a plan would be about as convoluted as if Skeletor made it, but hey, they're the Third Power; they can ruin us slowly... Shocked

*gasp* Not Kurt! Not innocent, sweet, wonderful Kurt!

Hm... which one do I love more? Kurt or Allain? Laughing

Seriously, though. I doubt our mysterious person would send us a vague message just to get Kurt killed, especially when Kurt wasn't specifically requested on the CD.

However, if our mysterious person was found out, then it's possible that mysterious person has been killed -- and now Kurt stands to meet a similar fate. But this doesn't seem likely to me. I hope we're at least be able to get some information from Kurt before anything happens to him.

For that reason (and because I crush on Kurt), I'm going to remain confident he returns home safely with useful information for us! Very Happy

Man, what frolicks must that chap be up to? Did he hit it off with the 3P over drinks, then onto a nightclub, retiring to a late bar before grabbing some bagels from the Point bakery, watching the sunrise over the city?

Enquiring minds need to know, Kurtyboy.

Just a thought, why hasn't Violet updated? She said she would "write more tomorrow" which would be Tuesday, its now Wednesday, and no update. Perhaps Kurt was discoverd dead/injured and she's too devastated to write to us. Or perhaps she is a 3P clone and she was the one meeting Kurt. Shocked

Hope he's still alive.

Why hasn't he updated?! Why hasn't Violet updated?! Why hasn't anyone updated?! Crying or Very sad

Oh, woe, woe!

Should we get in touch with the PC police dept and ask them to send a meat wagon to Gillit Road? Twisted Evil

Well if we don't hear from him by this evening, I would suggest e-mailing Violet to go look for him...

Gah. Damn me having school. I wanna know how this turns out. Hopefully I'll be able to pop onto the computer at school. Kurt'll be fine. He's a big, tough puzzle scribe Smile
