 		 [REF] Tom Tooman Reference thread
Look here if you're new to the game and want to know more
This is a reference thread for the Tom Tooman game. I'll try and keep this up to date by providing you with a set of URLs that are related to the game and also some resources that might come in handy.

Trailhead
A letter recieved by SpaceBass, and later others, discussed in this thread

Wiki
http://tinyurl.com/2zohkd

The wiki includes a condensed trail in the form of a 'what happened so far', although it is currently not very up to date. Furthermore, Tooman has its own IRC channel on Chat Solutions (irc.chat-solutions.org), named #tomtooman (click to access through the Unfiction web application).

 		Sup. I was one of the guys playin this game in its early stage. Then I fell behind so far that it was beyond repair. So, for the sake of me not having to read through 40 pages of information, could ya gimme a brief summary of the "storyline" so far. I Think it would also help new and confused players...

Please?

 		Well, to quote myself, from the post you replied to, above:

Go there to see what happened up til september 10. There has been no update to the wiki with stuff happening after that (although there soon will be), but basically, the two new sites, areyouaborder.com and blackhillsradiocontrol.org have been discovered. Click on both their "discovery" links in my post above to see how. If you then read pages 52-54 of the trailhead thread, you're basically back up to speed.

 		I've started updated the wiki at despoiler.

http://random.despoiler.org/index.php?title=Trailhead:Tom_Tooman

I've moved the entire summary of transmissions from BHRC to it's own page accessible under Black Hills Radio Control.

eta: "presumably" because while that email is signed by tooman, it doesn't quite make sense in the story yet that he would be associated with J&R.
