Regarding comments on that section (I moved it here to save Cem, Jamsi and Addelpated from having to move it later Wink *edit* and Eric, must not forget Eric)

Ahem!

Surprising since I sent him one two days ago from my other account... hmm... will have to send a lounder more definite ping to him...

Varin, I know he mentioned "in-game" and you feel he may not be...
however, there are a couple of things we should also not overlook...

1. The phrase used was "use common sense" to determine... (If he was not in game why not just say "No I'm not in game")
2. Some of the past contact and current contact specifically mentions these forums (i.e. making the forums in-game???) which leads me to believe, that unlike CTW where it was specifically stated that these areas were off limits, the Acheron team has made no such announcement.
3. Sure it could be a deliberate Oops on the part of the PM ... but with as much thought that has gone into the pre-game and the teasers before the game, do you really think they would not double and triple check things before it went out? And why just that possible player only and not others?


Questions to ask:
If the info was sent out in alphabetical order why start with the "B" surely we have at least one A name among all our various detectives and research personnel?

Any one got the roster handy? Anyone's e-mail going out showing a last name beginning with the letter A? Anyone? Addelpated?

 		Ping for Peter
OK, this is what I sent to Peter Bienstman, I worded it the way I did to make sure he would understand that this was an "In-game" communication related to Acheron. Will wait for a repy from him offering clarification on his status.
Springboard, if you could keep an ear on this it would be much appreciated.

If you are indeed the one who wants us to earn your trust, remember that trust is a blind alley, one can never be certain if there is a way out until one enters.

Reggie thinks you can be trusted, at least until the meds kick in.

Ping for the red knight. You are not in a position of strength, nor are you currently in danger of being removed from the board. If you wish to make a difference in how the game is played, you must jump on your hourse and ride.

The opening gambit has been played. Meg sent us the message.

Dear Mr. Bienstman, when has common sense ever come into play?

Ok now to play the waiting game...

 		Hehe, very amusing to see what conspiracy theories can do to one's mind Wink

Let me state this more clearly:

I am NOT in game.

Peter

PS1: Damn, there goes my thin cover of anonymity
PS2: The reason why I didn't get any mail is because of email trouble
