So I just got this email (2 emails, really) from Tyi:

Sorry I am having trouble loading this file. I might have to break it down, to send it through email

Here is the one of the files I pulled from the gathering. They all seem to be generally the same info. But that seems pretty normal considering they shared all of there info.
Here is what I need for you to do take this file. Do not unzip it we might risk one of the skulls getting back out. Take this file and put it on a floppy or a CD. Take it outside and destroy it however you see fit.
If you have the ability please record this action and post it where everyone can see it. This will put all of us at easy that atleast one if not all of the skulls are going to be destroyed.
Now that I have access to there site I can update the freewebs page for us. I think we need to right our own chapter XIII. I think a good ending to all of this would be video of us destroying the skulls once and for all.
Sorry for the generic message to all of you. But I am doing so much at one time.
There was nothing else attached to either email.
EDIT: The third email was the charm! It had an attachment. I got Violetskull!

So, has anybody (counter to their instructions) unzipped the files to see what's there out of an intense sense of curiosity?
Because at least personally, I'd be dying to know. (btw...good work on everything so far! I lurked through this game and was extremely impressed by the sense of community and puzzles)

I'm gutted I missed the last puzzles. damn time zones. I really hope there's a British ARG of this quality soon.
BTW I got Goldenskull, so I'll think of sthg creative to destroy it over the w/e. I'm thinking along 2 lines - either digitally breaking up the info then dispersing it in various ways, or watching Goldeneye and taking sthg from the film as my method of destruction
!!! My bad, I unzipped the file... Goldeneye is loose and coming after you all to rescue the other skulls!!
joking! I did open the file though, it contained all the pics relating to Goldeneye

Anyone have a transcript of the PM chat? Sadly had to step out during the period between the final rush and missed a good chunk of the endgame and chat.

sadly no, but that wasnt the official pm chat. A pm chat down the road is still planned after argfest, and the pm's own trip. As far as i can tell the games not over eather as long as the skulls have yet to be destroyed.

Amanda was in chat....she asked if there was anythign she could do to help. I told her to contact Tyi and see if she could help out with the Skull destruction.
Didn't realize chat was IG, so made a few errors in the conversation at the beginning (made the dreaded mistake of saying 'game') but oh well.
Beyond passing on the message, one significant thing was said:
Quote:
[14:15] <notgordian> bet you'll be glad to get all of this over with finally, huh.
[14:16] <AmandaP1att> Just knowing that it is finally over is what I am looking forward to. No assumptions that it is over.
So: "no assumptions that it is over"...there might be a little more to come.

I've destroyed mine, SkySkull... But no evidence yet. I'm making a video of the destruction set to Walkie Talkie Man.
Edit:
Okay, I'm uploading it to YouTube as we speak. This begs the question--what happens when I get some sort of nasty email from YouTube telling me that my video contains copyrighted material?
I'll edit again when the video is finished uploading. I just wanted to have giddily post that it's finally done (after Windows Movie Maker crashed approximately 84,000 times).
Edit 2:
SkySkull is destroyed!
I gotta go right now, but I'll pass the word on to Tyi later.
