So I searched MySpace for what Magog said and didn't come up with anything. Does anyone have a link to the page?


This is the link I used - I noticed it doesn't come up in a myspace search too

I almost said everything that was under the spoiler in my post asking about the page link. Then I rethought it, and went, "oops, bad idea". Honestly though, as far as spoilers go I think this one can slide. It's not a huge deal.

I am assuming that the whoismrwillson myspace account is correct, as the host posted a new message since that was found on the other forum:

"Once again, you have passed my employers latest challenge. In just a few days, your next task will become clear. For now, just be patient. My employer will contact each of you when he's ready."

So if thehost is referring to the whoismrwillson myspace account, we have to sit and wait - to be accepted as a friend I guess. He doesn't specifically say that was the employer's challenge, I guess we have to just assume that was it. It is kind of confusing and wondering if I am missing something. How am I to know that this was it? How do we submit our answers anyway? I have had answers before and never knew where to submit them. The threads are all over the placed at that forum.

I was thinking that maybe we were to put the photo of willsonavt on our page as an identiying factor - the act of faith. How else would he know who's page is in the game - for example, my page is different ID than my game ID - so by putting the icon on my page, he can know we are ingame people.

Things are rather confusing. I don't think anyone knows what to do at this point but it seems we are all just waiting on something happening over at his MySpace. If that's wrong, well, we didn't have any direction to go anywhere else! So how would we know? Waiting kind of sucks, but it's the only think I can think of to do.

I am still wondering if the site is in game. Now there is a big ad covering the page www.mrwinner.com, and it cannot be closed out.

I get the impression that this is thier first ARG, because we're seeing a few rookie mistakes.

They have stated that the game will be part ARG, part game show. The game show part is gonna be later into the game, and that's where the scores will come into play.

Not quite sure what tht will eventually mean though...

anagram

Is everyone here aware that.....


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Will Findham has an anagram "Find Me Will"


Edited:

I also just found out that there is a website will a bunch of characters on it:



Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I found Will Findhem - at http://www.rockband.com/rockers/Staff_of_the_Magi

and found out that he is a drummer.

Others on the rocker band site are:
Allan McMichaels
Ian Stalker
Alex Wynn



I don't really know what to do with the info, so I e-mailed thehost. I also don't know if it is in game or a trick by someone. I made up an account, and requested to be a friend of the above website. Waiting right now.

and I just found another related website:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
There is a band called "The Salkers" - guess who is in it?
Willhem and McMichaels.

Leader Staff_of_the_Magi (Magi420)
Band Members Allen Mc.., Will Fin..

rockband.com is the official website of the computer game 'Rock Band', which enables players to create a rock band kind of like Guitar Hero but with management elements as well.

It looks like Staff of the Magi have just used their character names (their first names Ian, Alex and Will are their real names) in the game.

Also Will Findem itself is a phrase - Will Find 'Em, which is think is perhaps more relevant as he is an investigative journalist!

Well I personally doubt that it is relevant, the game was only released recently anyway.

Well, I was hoping I wouldn't have to buy an X-box.

I reviewed all the MySpace pages yesterday and on the magistaff page, I noticed that they seem to have a lot of "rocking friends". The page has been up for quite some time, so I believe that music is part of their business/hobbies.
