 		I can't contact Aden (Norton child-block is blocking the site, dammit!), but if we should ask him if he recognizes it--maybe he's into music. Or, he could take it to the bar with him and offer his customers a free drink if they know it. :p

 		good work, I totally missed the hex above the pic!

...and there's an update to his blog. That's it for Doom:
Quote:
You humans finally proved me wrong. I except your answer, you have gained the respect of Doomskull. I will now join the others in the Gathering.


Wonder if it's another skull, or the last Chosen One next?

 		Updates on Chapter 3 Page (http://www.freewebs.com/13crystalskulls/chapteriii.htm) and the Gathering (http://www.freewebs.com/13crystalskulls/index.htm) as expected.

I'm guessing new chosen next, just because that's how its been going so far. Then we have four people to give us clues to the next skull.

 		It looks like Missy has been contacted by the next Chosen. She's posted a new blog entry:

Quote:

Monday, January 15, 2007
I just got this email!!!

Well this whole thing just got a little weirder. I just checked my email and got a message from this guy. I thought getting emails from you guys was weird at first, but this beats that. So, I don't know what to think of this. And I am not replying to him until I figure out whats up with this guy. I thought you guys were supposed to find us not the other way around. I don't know, maybe you guys can contact him and find out. if he is for real.

tyiharperSPLATgmail.com
to Me

The skulls have been talking to me for a while . They told me to wait for you guys to find me. But, I don't want to wait anymore. I know why you all were chosen, I know why I was chosen. I am searching for the others. I will find them, then we can all come together we can complete this prophecy.


EDIT: I emailed tyiharper and asked him about being one of the Chosen, and he wrote back:

Quote:
Sender name: "Tyi Harper"

I am currently tracking down the skulls. I don't care much for what they say. I want to know were they are coming from. I will tract them down to there source, and when I do I will gather them all.


Ooookay. Is this good or bad?

 		I emailed him too & referred him to the gathering site, this is what I got back

Quote:
I don't waist my time with those cheep Corporate sites. If I need to I will hack into one of the other chosen sites. I am currently rummaging through Missy's computer as we speak. It seems to me that the skulls are running communications through everyone's computer that contacts them. Some how they are able to open up an IP and leave it open, regardless of a firewall or router. It will take me some time but I will find them.

Since you are on Gmail, If you have any important information you can contact me on Gmail chat.


This one sounds like a *real nice guy*

 		Looks like he's our rival for trying to track down the skulls. If so, it's a nice twist! XD

Yeah... With the other Chosen, we've had to convince them that they were actually the Chosen. With this dude, looks like we have to convince him to help us instead of working aganist us. I mean, we're both working towards the same thing, but...

 		I like it! Maybe we have to race this guy to get to the skulls first!

> Do you think we should warn the other 2?

 		I did that - sent them all warnings about a possible hacker & I also replied to Tyi with:

Quote:
Did you ever stop to think that we would be happy to work with you &
you don't have to go hacking into our systems?

So far the chosen have had some good qualities, you seem like a real
jerk. We laerted Missy, I am pretty sure she will simply turn off her
computer & disconnect the Internet wires.

We already managed to gather 3 skulls, what have you accomplished
using your methods? I know if you go hacking into my computer you
will accomplish getting into all kinds of legal trouble.

You really want to go this on your own, be a big cyber renegade, or do
you want to work with us & get the gathering completed?

Red


Yes, it's a bit snarky, but he sounds like a jerk

Tyi's reply - do we have a new twist?

Quote:
Well, it is not a matter of working with you. I personally Like to work alone, but these Skulls seem to think we should work together. Myself personally, I am not big on puzzles. So you guys do your thing and I will do mine.

The hacking is nothing personal, Yet. I am trying to run a trace program on these Skulls. Every time I hit a firewall I have to go in through an email. I need to track who all the skulls have been in contact with.

On top of that, If Missy or any of the others decides to "disconnect" from the Net. Not only will I lose connection, you lose contact with the Skulls. And we don't want that now do we.

There is so much more to this than you could even possibly believe. Come on now, do you think this is just all about saving the world. How many times must this stupid world be saved. This is about becoming like Gods.


And a google chat with Tyi

Some important parts:

Quote:
Tyi: those who gather the skulls will have the ability to save the Earth
but you also gain all of the knowledge that the skull contain
me: we have no interest in becoming Ghods, do you?
Tyi: ether way we will have power, fame, knowledge. What more could you ask for. don't know about you but I am no rock star But, I want that

Tyi: Everything on this Net leaves a footprint
me: even if it has no foot
Tyi: follow them backwards you find were it came from
me: and when you find that they are using pure energy wha then?
Tyi: Then I ..............
I don't know
All I know is you guys do your puzzles and let me do my thing Like I have stated I must do as they told me I don't know why they are doing the way they are doing things the way they are that is

Tyi: well I guess my personal skills aren't up to par
I will ask next time

me: since you know computers so well, think you cuold set up a blog or a place online where manyof us can chat with you at once?
Tyi: And I guess I have to contact Missy and say I am sorry
me: Smile
Tyi: I might set one up for you
me: please
Tyi: I ust really hate blogger spots
me: I hear ya - me too, but there are tons of places out there
Tyi: I will work on that. If it helps you to help us find these skulls

 		Nice job, RedHatty! Looks like you've pulled him over to our side. Smile

I really do think it's interesting that this dude is totally in this for selfish reasons--we really hadn't seen it up until this point in the story and I think it's really cool that our cast of characters is expanding in new and interesting ways. Hopefully he gets a blog or something set up soon. Smile

 		Thanks Rekidk & with you in mind, I sent this little request in:
Quote:
Tyi, just a small request. One of the people helping is a very bright
15 yr old whose parents have Norton web site blocker on their system.
If possible can you set something up that is a "kid friendly" site.
One of the other chosen has a blog on friendster & the dude can't ever
get to it.

We sure would appreciate it Smile

 		I had a similar very brief exchange:

I wrote:

The skulls are already gathering on their own. Have
you seen this site?

http://www.freewebs.com/13crystalskulls/index.htm

It explains what they are doing and why. Let's work
together.

Tyi wrote:

I will help you when you need help. Apparently we must all meet at the same destination. Otherwise they would have just asked me to gather them.


What a charmer.
