I hope someone else has signed up for text messages, because im away for a while now and wont have access to a computer =(

I got a text at 1:05pm (UK time) today:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Bishop County is a place full of mysteries. You just gotta get under the surface. The time for the truth will come soon.


Gah im so annoyed I wont have a computer, I want to play this xD

EDIT: Wow big Max Headroom on the 'Lies' section xD What the hell does he say at the end of the truth part?!

Edit 2:

Got a youtube message too!:

I emailed him on youtube when I found the number, just to see if I would be given any further information. I said:
Quote:

Hello there,

I found the number and am awaiting your instructions!

Nic...


And got the reply:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Do you like pin badges?

As far as I can tell from chopping it up and replaying it lots in SoundForge, the end of the 'truth' one is saying:

"b b b b county edmild 1 b b b"

Although I'm not sure either of the words in the middle are exactly right.

For "lies", aside from the stuttered zs, I think it's meant to say:

"I knew someone / but after it all / piney (find he?) did it for a reason"

None of this really makes sense. After listening to 'truth' I thought maybe we were getting sections of hexidecimal, but 'lies' doesn't support that. The words "county" & "bishop" seem to be coming up a lot though

I'm looking out at the stars and wondering about the dominance of big companies. Dont worry. We'll bring one down soon.

Just this second got a text message with this link:

http://blog.tlemporary.co.uk

Edit: I dont know why, but i feel a bit put off by the bit telling you to buy badges

http://www.tribalbadges.co.uk/

Quote:
Our badges come with exclusive keycodes for use in the tLemporary game from Summer 2007. Each keycode is unique and can only be used once with each badge offering a different unlockable piece of content.


Something is worrying me the game might just be marekting. But I could be wrong.

Edit: Now I know why I was asked if I like pin badges =\

I'm also a bit put off by this. I mean, as of yet we've seen very little 'game' and been given little reason to be assured that this will turn into something. I'm not ready to go buying pins yet after a short little puzzle trail and a mysterious phone message.

Just noticed that there is a second post on this blog (just appeared), which seems to indicate that these badges are optional. I think you also get some from doing mysteries?
Guess it's just early days and lets hope we can see some more from it soon.

Aww bless, I hope I didnt upset them by complaining about the badges xD I feel bad now Laughing

Thing is, I know his blog says 'the free world will remain free' but at some point, someone is going to have to buy some badges.
But anyway, I dont mind buying some badges if I have to, their only under a quid, BUT it does fustrate me that im already paying for text messages, then I'll have badges that I dont want as well Laughing
Regardless of that, I think I need a bit more 'oomph' before I start buying stuff.
I'll definatley keep up with the texts for now, and my little eye will be firmly placed on the websites.

Maybe the PM should make some 'I <3 Zombies' badges Laughing I'd have no problem buying them then Laughing

Edit: GAH! Im so interested as to what they unlock...why do I get the feeling Im going to be a sucker and buy some xD

Zombies rock! Yeah I love zombie movies too.

I just found this ARG a few days ago...So it's going to really get going this summer. I love swag, I'm probably buying some badges. This looks pretty fun so far judging from the escape game.

I also sent a message as well on YouTube...waiting for a respose back.

I've just noticed that the homepage has changed with a link to a development blog! Looks very interesting, especially the "Win a Village" competition!
Quote:
Well, not an actual village, but you'll get to name one.

So, for your chance to name a village in Bishop County, simply add a comment to this post with your proposed name.

The best one wins so good luck!
