 		Why are the majority of the clues keyed to finding the Dr's location???.... It"s as if he wants someone to come knock on his door....That doesn't make any since. What does he want us to find in these pics???... They are all probably in or near the ones we have already located are. I'm not understanding his motive.... None of these things he has shown us have anything to do with AV....So why is he showing them to us???........

 		location
hey,new to args, but picking up this one and landalan. . .

i also think it's strange that the dr. keeps sending pictures of local places when we already know almost exactly where he is. The hints to his location are probably used so that AV will find him, but perhaps there are so many similar hints because we're missing something?

 		I can't decide if it's because he wants AV to find him, or because he is trying to establish himself as "lonely"...

(I'm NO expert, but with the wiccan references, the interest in the city and everything else he's said - I think he was drawn to AV because maybe that's where they're based???)


If anything the PM's are great at idle chatter and I think clues that we're missing out on - I look forward to a post-game chat... (hear that guys!!!)

 		OK I just examined the pictures the old house has some weird figures reflected in the last window to the left...It looks like ghosts or the clan... No address that I can see...Also the AC works in the house so it is not abandonded(condensation is making that tree grow) The last pic with the weird big tree if you zoom in about center it looks like a weird fire is there ....By the way this may sound noobish but I'm a nood ..If you download the pics, then use microsoft's pic viewer you can really zoom into the pic without it getting too pixelated.... I hope this helps fellow noobs out there ....lol.... I just figured this out like 2 or 3 days ago...

I think that's a good deduction, AngBa. perhaps the skull building could be a potential meetingplace for AV? I think we should try to find more info about the building.

 		in case we can't find the skull house soon, i sent an email to chip ( the guy who has a picture of the skullflamingo on his website) asking about the address. I'm trying to compile a picture on goolge earth with all the locations we've identified clearly marked.

 		No love from the Doc on my email today. I suppose the fact that I misspelled his last name in the salutation probably wasn't too endearing, though....

subtlephilosophy, thumbs up on the shop being the Magick Cauldron. It used to be Phoenix Comics and Games; it's on Montrose Boulevard just north of Westheimer (which is basically the main drag of the city). If it turns out he goes for late night coffee and Greek food at Bibas Restaurant on West Gray I'm going to laugh myself into a coma. Smile

FWIW, a store that's clearly "white-witch"-y that he might like is Lucia's Garden, http://www.luciasgarden.com ...

these are the locations we have so far. 544 bomar street is the possible location of the "dr. clean" house, and is the neighborhood where the skull house is located. I'll have the exact address for the skull house if chip returns my email. also, 2424 montrose is the address for the magick cauldron.

 		I had a well thought out post ready to go, and somehow lost it... But it's late and I have to get to bed.

The Dr. said a few things to me tonight:

1) He has an item that has weird symbols on it that "clouds his thinking" and wants to get rid of it... He wants to know if I trust mycroft with it (completely, I told him) but he is scared to do it.

2) He is becoming increasingly more obsessed with witches and the magic shop (right place by the way - he told me the name nice find) he was afraid to go into because of "bad witches"

3) He continually asked for a "good witch" to say a spell for him, here is the last time:

Quote:
[22:04] docjpjr: I have thought about this. I was skeptical but I am so confused now. Witches are everywhere. Perhaps it is real? This is why I ask you to have good witches maybe say a spell for me
[22:05] theangrybanana: We will find good witches to do this....
[22:05] docjpjr: I know it is crazy but perhaps I am desperate after so long
[22:05] theangrybanana: no, we will do this for you
[22:06] docjpjr: Thank you. I must sleep.
[22:06] docjpjr: The cat demands it
[22:06] theangrybanana: Tell Monkey that he/she is right.... You've had a long day. I will talk to you later Dr.
[22:06] docjpjr: Goodnight banan
[22:06] docjpjr: banana


There's a good witch we are supposed to find, I know it!

I think he has given us clues to find the "good witch" that we are supposed to talk to... He is scared, and I'm not sure about the drop yet.

Off to bed - Tipsila, it's so nice to see you again! Wink

*again, the chat log is LONG, but I didn't want to leave anything out
