I FOUND THE NUMBER!!!!!

If you search his user name on student.com you see he made 3 posts in the forums.

@2:09 pm - he works 812 into his post
@2:10 pm - he works 769 into his post
@2:12 pm - he works 7031 into his post

Call 812-769-7031 and .... GABRIEL! or at least his VM. I left a message and a callback number. I specifically used the word alien. Wink

Edit : beaten like a redheadded stepchild by Beef. damnit!

Not at all. I found a piece but you found the whole thing. Very nice work. I'm just happy I can contribute in my first ARG experience. Keep us posted!

In case you can't call, the VM says :
Quote:
Hey this is Gabriel. This is my cell. Leave a message and I'll call you back.



Not terribly informative.

Thats great! If anyone gets a call back, I would suggest trying to work in the whole 'say alien/anything different/wheres your home town' thing.

ANother suggestion you might like to add to your list Smooth, is if those guides are how we can spot an Alien, then they may also use those charecteristics to spot each other. (Pretty much like in Bodysnatchers)

So he could for example, wear sunglasses to hide his eyes, keep his left hand in his pocket or wear gloves, that type of thing, when he goes to town.

Subject: The Bearers of Light

Humanity is caught in the middle of an interplanetary war. We have attempted to keep this war a secret from the inhabitants of Earth, but we can do this no longer.

We are the Windwalkers, and our enemies are the Firebringers. You must choose sides. The Firebringers come from far across the galaxy, while we, the Windwalkers, are more of your neighbors than strangers. We have watched Earth for millennia, and we have decided that now is the time to make our presence known.

The Firebringers do not wish for an alliance to be made between Earth and our home planet. They want to destroy Earth to prevent humans from gaining control of Windwalker technology. They want instead to enslave the human race and return them to their home across the galaxy.

We will not force you to make a decision. We will not make you join our side. We only wish to inform you.

Should you decide to join the Windwalkers, then you must find the Chosen. You are all Bearers of Light, but the Chosen will be your contact points. We are among you. Fear not.

Thoughts?

Edit : after looking at the distribution list, I'd just like to say that I <3 Ubuntu and I <3 Ubuntu Studio even more.

My thoughts are that I can't wait to get a hold of some of that sweet WW tech!

Err first thoughts are confused actually.
Main question is what type of aliens are we dealing with in Unton? I'd tend to think the Firebringers - Gabriel's mum accident, power cuts would point to that.

What about Colby and Christine? The feather is a symbol of wind - why was Christine so scared? She now seems very suspicious to me. What if "our secret" is not Christine's and Colby's secret?
The dream about the web being burnt takes a new meaning as well. Have both Chet and Gabriel been "captured" by the Firebringers?

How about Agent darkness? Is he just some man in black who actually is pretty clueless about the whole thing? He only ever mentions one type of alien. Or could he be one of the Chosen getting us after the Firebringers?

I can't phone US mobiles cheaply, so I'll pass on that, but I'm wondering how you found his posts in the forums? I searched the forums for posts by his username but it returned no result :/

I was messing around with his profile and noticed that his "points" kept climbing and he was still online. I figured he had to be doing something to earn the points, so I read how you do that. One of the methods is posting in the forums at student.com. Went to the forums, search by author. He's only made three posts, so then it was a matter of going back chronologically and grabbing the numbers.

Oh I see it now - I tried to search too early actually! They could've done the forum posts before the profile update :/

Two groups of aliens. We have to decide. Where have I heard that before? Eh, anyway.

Yep, well, all we got last night was a link to student.com and a profile with 0 posts. The day crew once again gets "Gabriel online", posts, clues, and cell phone numbers.

Ok then, back to [Spec]ing.

I don't think anyone is really questioning which to pick ... its how the hell do we let them know we've chosen? Find the Chosen, obviously, but that's a little vague.
