Well, even if it wasn't, his account is public access, so it is his fault if someone does find his webpage and his phone number and calls him. The internet can be a scary place because people will go to that trouble to find that information. Look, we did! But still, if someone calls him, do it as a good time, for each number they try from his page, as he might not be a part of the game after all.


Sounds good.

EDIT: The tons of Halo-related material on his site do suggest a definite involvement in the game. That phone number is starting to look enticing.

No way he has foreknowledge of SOTA, the glyphs, mentions truth and the final chapter, has Covie glyphs on his blog, and isn't in-game. No way.


Weirder things have happened. I second MjolnirMkII, maybe we should give the PM's a wee bit of a breather? And call at a more palatable hour? It is 12.45 am on the Eastern Seaboard.

NOTE: Reposting in the appropriate thread...

This may be reaching, but...

From Avery Fane's professional page:



The filename of AR's new avatar is Chrysopteron -- another name for the goddess Iris.

From the Wiki article on Iris:

"Iris is the personal messenger of Hera, queen of the gods."

"Iris is represented either as a rainbow, or as a young maiden with wings on her shoulders."

From AR:

"Who is the path of light from blackest Earth to brilliant heaven?
On whose golden wings will we fly from here to there?"

AR also responded specifically to the word "iris".

Finally, I'm no horticulturalist, but is Avery holding irises (iris flowers) in that pic? Could he be the messenger AR is alluding to?

Good reminder of the time! I am off to bed! Lucky West coasters still have a couple of hours or so to kill. See you all tomorrow!

the phone number goes straight to voice mail, no ringing at all, with a default message. I couldn't think of any message to leave.

The PMs havent caught up yet. I'm guessing if we try again in about 15 minutes they'll put something together. Maybe.

Sounds like a turned off cellphone.

Or maybe a phone line waiting to be activated at a certain moment...

EDIT: The iris-wing connection is interesting. Definitely worthwhile. and interesting to boot.

Is the countdown local or server side? If local, set your computer ahead a few days...

Whoa!

Did this and the countdown went all to zeros. But the text stayed the same.

Definitely local. But the text probably changes when the PMs change it. Or it's server side.

The suspect Avery Fane picture, at the very end of his portfolio has some "image info" attached to it, which states: "Hamasaki Ayumi knows whats up".

Hamasaki Ayumi is apparently a female Pop star in Japan, according to my base google search. Leap?
