I have a myspace page now for this:
http://profile.myspace.com/399265809

Convo moved to IM Group chat. My private conversation is below:
full transcript:

Quote:

trappedbarry: Hello?
CaverRance: hello
trappedbarry: do you remember me?
CaverRance: yes, vaguely
trappedbarry: because I am back in the room
trappedbarry: so I need help again
CaverRance: that's not good
CaverRance: are you alone?
trappedbarry: right now
trappedbarry: I woke up in a coffin
trappedbarry: there are 9 other ones
CaverRance: So I take it you've managed to get out of yours
trappedbarry: I think I was just the 1st to wake up
trappedbarry: yeah
CaverRance: have you checked the others?
trappedbarry: not yet
CaverRance: if this is like last time, I wouldn't trust them not to be sealed, nailed, or filled with something bad
trappedbarry: if you remember the computer only stays on so long so I ran to it
trappedbarry: Yeah
trappedbarry: I can't believe I am here again
CaverRance: what happened before?
CaverRance: I mean before you found yourself in a coffin
trappedbarry: lets see
trappedbarry: I did my book signing
trappedbarry: I remember getting in my car
trappedbarry: I don't remember going home
trappedbarry: I remember driving, but not going home
CaverRance: hmm
trappedbarry: It seems mostly the same as last time
trappedbarry: there is a bomb in the middle of the room
trappedbarry: and I have another message in my pocket
trappedbarry: except this time I also got a myspace login and password and e-mail addy and password
trappedbarry: I guess I am to use them to talk to you.
CaverRance: ok
CaverRance: what is on the message?
trappedbarry: I put it on my myspace page. Let me see if I can send it to you
CaverRance: ok
trappedbarry: http://profile.myspace.com/399265809 here
CaverRance: got it
trappedbarry: good
CaverRance: I see your profile at least
CaverRance: and your blog
trappedbarry: what is also strange is I can click on Gone But Not Forgotten, but when I click his friends it says FORBIDDEN
CaverRance: hmmm
CaverRance: I see 18 friends
trappedbarry: Well I can't get to them
trappedbarry: I see them, but I can't see their page
trappedbarry: Do you have the list?
CaverRance: here is the list: Jake Roman, Kate Vic, Mary Ritz, Jade Fox, Frank Aber, Sam Simmons, Tony Zappeno, Jane Lady, Alice Robinson.. and you
CaverRance: any names seem familiar?
trappedbarry: Yeah I see them
trappedbarry: I know Mary Ritz and Kate Vic rings a bell
CaverRance: How do you know Mary?
CaverRance: I'm trying to get some friends in to help
CaverRance: the more minds here the better
trappedbarry: one just sent me a message
CaverRance: what's worse is this message
trappedbarry: swordmentor
CaverRance: "Todd made the Room of Doom two years ago. There I interfered, I hope you are happy. Maybe they will just kill you"
CaverRance: can we invite him in?
trappedbarry: who said that?!
CaverRance: someone named "The Messenger"
CaverRance: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=397544061
trappedbarry: The messenger?
trappedbarry: wasn't he involved the 1st time?
CaverRance: That's what I'm trying to remember
CaverRance: but I think so
CaverRance: we're starting a convo room
trappedbarry: ok
CaverRance: Gone left a message on Messengers:
CaverRance: Oh don't worry. The stronghold has nothing to do with what I am doing. I have made sure that they are cut off from this. The only person you have put at risk is yourself... or maybe your friends. Hmmm to think I did something that Todd could not, I got you to play. I would have been a good member. Have fun on the run.
CaverRance: ok, closing this convo

Group Convo with Barry

Quote:

swordmentor has entered the room.
CaverRance has entered the room.
swordmentor: Right. So, now to invite barry.
CaverRance: ok
trappedbarry has entered the room.
trappedbarry: ok
trappedbarry: so we are talking in here now?
swordmentor: Yup.
trappedbarry: ok
swordmentor: Let's see. We need to be cautious about opening the coffins.
trappedbarry: Yeah
trappedbarry: You never know what is going to happen here
trappedbarry: But Tood is dead! How can this be happening again?
swordmentor: A copycat? Associate?
trappedbarry: So did you guys get a listing?
swordmentor: Listing?
trappedbarry: Last time you guys were given a list of who each one of us were
CaverRance: If I had to guess
trappedbarry: It was like one is shy one is a doctor one is a liar and one is me
CaverRance: the friends of Gone but Not Forgotten
CaverRance: are our list
swordmentor: That seems to make sense.
CaverRance: exactly the number of friends as coffins
CaverRance: well of pictured friends
swordmentor: Who is Rachel?
CaverRance: so that doesn't help much
trappedbarry: Right
trappedbarry: But you guys did not get a list of who each one of us is?
CaverRance: I haven't gotten anything yet.. but it may've been missed
swordmentor: Technically, we did.
trappedbarry: what is it?
swordmentor: Well, the Gone but not forgotten. I assume 9 of them are the previous ones, and 9 are the new ones.
trappedbarry: hmm
CaverRance: that would make sense
CaverRance: ah
CaverRance: here we go
CaverRance: One is an expert
one is a thief
one is a family member
one is a double agent
one has an eating disorder
on is a model
one is a drug addict
one is indecisive
one is transgender
and one is me
trappedbarry: 9 are previous? Like from the 1st one?
CaverRance: in Gone's blog
trappedbarry: Now that is what I am talking about
trappedbarry: Tried to click on the blog
trappedbarry: FORBIDDEN
CaverRance: on the messenger's page
CaverRance: she warns about Jane Lady
CaverRance: saying she is her mother
trappedbarry: Well I don't know Jane
CaverRance: you said you know Mary?
CaverRance: what do you know about her?
trappedbarry: Well when we got out of the room the 1st time, me and Eric, we went to the police, and Mary is the one who went back with us
CaverRance: ok
trappedbarry: then this chopper lands
trappedbarry: And we are told that we are never to talk about this
trappedbarry: and they pay us a bunch of money to keep our mouths shut
swordmentor: Well, i think that information would be helpful right now to tell us anyway.
trappedbarry: I am
trappedbarry: at this point I have no choice
trappedbarry: I can't spend that money dead
trappedbarry: wait, coffin is opening
swordmentor: Good. Who's in it?
swordmentor: My friend wants to join in helping Barry, she'll be right back.
highonhersheysx3 has entered the room.
trappedbarry: It was Tony
trappedbarry: I told him to stay calm
trappedbarry: I am filling him in as I am talking to you
CaverRance: ok
swordmentor: Right. Can you ask him what he last remembers?
trappedbarry: .....no
swordmentor: Why? What happened? He can't remember?
trappedbarry: You see last time this happened there was a rule that only one person could use the computer
trappedbarry: and I afraid that if I relayed a message from him I might be seen as a cheater
trappedbarry: and we will be punished
swordmentor: Right. Well... that sucks.
trappedbarry: and I don't want that
trappedbarry: Man Kate Vic rings a bell but I just can't place it
CaverRance: so, which of the clues do you think applies to you?
trappedbarry: don't due drugs
trappedbarry: not trans gender
trappedbarry: isn't everyone a family member
highonhersheysx3 has left the room.
CaverRance: yeah, I would assume so
CaverRance: that may become more clear in time
trappedbarry: lets hope
CaverRance: hopefully soon enough
trappedbarry: crap the time came up on the computer
swordmentor: And then there's the fact that one of you is the person who created the room, or rather is recreating todds room.
trappedbarry: I am going to get booted off soon
CaverRance: yes
trappedbarry: Ok not much time
CaverRance: ok, well anything we should know before you go?
trappedbarry: I beg you, don't tell anyone else about the listing
trappedbarry: keep that between us so we don't end up fighting
CaverRance: ok
swordmentor: Alright.
trappedbarry: thanks
CaverRance: Find out what you can
CaverRance: we'll do the same
trappedbarry: keep in touch
trappedbarry: will do
swordmentor: Try to figure out who is the traitor.
trappedbarry has left the room.
CaverRance: time's up
swordmentor: That certainly was interesting.
CaverRance: yes
CaverRance: unfortunately I have to do some work, so I won't be able to do much till tomorrow
CaverRance: but there's a good network of information off of the myspace links
swordmentor: Eh, same here, music lessons soon.
CaverRance: ok, I'll post this to UF
CaverRance: talk to you soon I'm sure.
swordmentor: Alright. Then I'll talk to you....whenever?
CaverRance: hehe yep.
swordmentor: Good day to you.
CaverRance: you too

So, apparently most of the information comes from the network of myspace friend links.
