BA in Iowa City: Moving On wrote:
You: Stepping out of the elevator

Me: Stepping in


As I walk down the hall, I wonder why things changed. What is different. The building so ready to collapse under fear, now stands strong.

Gone are the screams. The panic. The pain.

People walk the halls. Searching for those lost. Recovering from the torment

People stand in their rooms. Repairing what was broken. Gathering their possessions.

Moving on.

Can't they feel it?

Can you?

BA In Bend: Waiting For Me wrote:
You: Observing me

Me: Observing you


Walking out onto the street, I pause when I see a cat. Then another. Another. You.

Waiting.

The words come back to me.

Observe the cats. They know.

BA In Caribbean: On My Street wrote:
You: Following me

Me: Wondering why


Some follow as I walk up the street towards the familiar. The man playing his drum, the dog fighting shadows behind the fence, the old woman surrounded by bones. They're here everyday.

Always the same. Always different.

Man and woman. Trapped in place.

Dog. Free to roam.

Always here. On my street.

And now you.

I'll bseeingu
BA

So what are we up to by now? 46 Craigslist posts? How many packages though? The wiki only lists 13. Either we're missing a bunch of packages or I'd imagine we're supposed to find something more through these posts.


By my count (well actually icymidnight and Sentry Outpost's counts) there are currently 248 Craig's List entries and 17 mailed packages. I think 17 is all the mailed packages that we're ever going to see because the picture is only missing 1 piece.

We know that one of the mailed packages was burned by HPHack, so we have 1 missing piece in the big picture of Cthulu in the mountains

Ouch. Give us a break BA, you aren't the easiest girl to figure out.

But we're trying.

At least you had some fun in this dream, no?

Atlanta

And maybe a clue:

 		Heh. So does anybody have a GPS they could possibly use? I don't... but you know. Has there been any other clues about this in any of the other CL posts? I'm probably just asking the obvious...

 		gps
i have found a gps converter here http://www.cosports.com/tools/gps_coords.htm but im too stupid to make sense of it. are 703-0500 the right numbers? are those even gps coordinates? if they could be converted into lat/lang, it might be possible to find them on a map.

 		I was wrong when I thought the GPS was a hint. It was just something she picked up from a dream someone (mapmaker) submitted. A perfect example of how easy it is to confuse me. Smile

Sorry if I got anyone onto the wrong track.

Are we hurting BA's already tenuous mental state by pushing her to new locations?

Sounds like Exu, all right.

This sounds almost like a mentor to BA.

It leads me to you. Standing there. Panicked. Alone. Crying.
Mourning.
As soon as our eyes meet, I feel it.

She would have killed you too.
The words come out before I can stop them. Before I think them.
The cry that comes from within you rips right through me.
I'm sorry I upset you

Arabic doesn't appear outside of Harrisonburg that often, no? This one seems especially important, with our submissions and the progression leading up to her entering the cave. I'm not entirely sure about the line "She would have killed you too." It sounds like BA is telling that to the mourning man in the cave, but who is the woman she's talking about? Would it be crazy to think that the previous victims are the Miskatonic researchers? Kevin?

Can you sit at your computer for more than a few minutes? Do you even see these?

This makes it seem like BA is targeting these Craigslist posts at a specific person. Maybe the mysterious Harrisonburgite?

 		Probably nothing, but it's bothering me. BA incorrectly uses the word 'course' instead of 'coarse'.

Curious.
