 		fun with anagrams
sorry to bug you all.
Hey. I know this probably means NOTHING, and you all have probably tried this before, but I ran anagrams of people's names, and some of them are hilarious. At least it'll make you smile.

Corey Western = Scenery Tower, Coy Westerner, Secret Ye Worn
Kristen Kyers = Try Miner Kiss, Merry I Stinks, Rems Risky Tin
Marcus Lee = Camel User, Acme Rules, Ear Muscle (my favorite!)
Robert Ingram = Migrant Borer, Amber Grin Rot, Get Mirror Ban
Michelle Lincoln = Clinic Hell Lemon, Lichen Clone Mill

Sorry, I have way too much time on my hands. hope you all don't mind.

 		Myspace
I was googling again, looking for anything new and ran across a myspace link to a Marcus Lee in Mississippi. The short description includes the quote "PLEASE HELP ME..." I'm unable to get onto Myspace due to being at work, so if someone else would like to check it out and see if it's related, here it is. here

From that page...

Quote:
My name is Rhamarcus Deon Lee and I am a youth minister at the Unity M.B. Church in Elizabeth. I am asking for help because I wanted to further my education at Jackson State University. I want to become a music education major. My only problem is that I was there in the fall of 2006 and now I owe them $3,500...


That's where I stopped reading.

So, no, that's not it.

 		LOL! Sorry Night, I guess I'll stick to waiting til I get home to look at Myspace profiles! Laughing Sorry!

EDIT: This is driving me nuts! I've researched everything I can think of. I've tried anagramming the the first letters from "Sleep is peaceful, and so is the way through", I've tried searching blogs for Corey and Kristen and Hangman, the original email address has been kicking my butt for the last two weeks! I'm not sure what else I can do?

We can pray, DeadbyDawn. We can pray....

"Dear Buddha, please bring me a pony and a plastic rocket."

 		Update to the site, finally...

Quote:
With two faces, can you book any guarantee? Tell me.. is it Yeu or Lee?


Obviously wants us to find a Yeu or a Lee on Facebook... Will take a look now.

Edit: There is a "Marcus Yeu Or Lee" -- might be our guy. Someone want to message him?

I just did, asking him how he's doing. Don't wanna play the psycho, "hey man, you're gonna be dead in a week or two, so how're you feeling?" guy with the first message (:

*EDIT*

He's definitely our Marcus Lee (:

He just confirmed me as a friend in Facebook and replied to me:

Quote:
Hey buddy

Not bad and you?

Sorry I know this sounds rude but like, do I know you?

~M


And I replied him:

Quote:
No mate, there's nothing rude asking that (:

You don't know me and I don't know you either. We were doing an investigation about some guy, and noticed that you may be related. I don't wanna sound like a maniac (I admit, I do rite now), but anything strange happened since a few weeks/days?


Another reply:

Quote:
Erm... Not really. I mean like, a friend of mine was getting paranoid about seeing some black 4x4 outside the apartment a couple of times and it sped off whenever he approached it, so he said anyway...

Other than that not really pal


And me:

Quote:
I see...

I'm gonna try to be as explicative as possible. A few weeks ago, we've found a website : http://inthefinalstate.com with a video on it. (try 'death' for password to watch it)

And after a week later we noticed that video, -it's kinda strange to say that, but- those people are killed.

So, we have a list with five names on it, which are:

Corey Western
Kristen Myers
Marcus Lee
Robert Ingram
Michelle Layton

And a clue which says: "With two 'faces', can you 'book' any guarantee? Tell me.. is it 'Yeu or Lee'?"

So, I don't wanna scare you, but we thought you might be that "Marcus Lee" and wanted to warn you about it.

By the way, do you know any of those names? And also, please try 'h3842q34q' for the password and watch the video too. Does it make any sense?


Quote:
Damn man that's really freakin weird...

Marcus Lee is my name... Marcus Yeu is my family name but due to the fact I was 'unfairly' denied job opportunites because of my heritage or w/e I like, changed it to Lee.

The only people who ever knew me as Marcus Yeu were my friends from school...

And that website's fucked up...


Quote:
Definitely mate. So, any ideas of who may do something like this? Or maybe anyone who has a grudge on you? Me and my friends are trying our best to stop that, but I recommend you to be vigilant and inform us if you notice anything off beat.

Oh by the way, does the home in the second video make any sense?

Quote:

Dude... I just checked that, that's my old apartment I no longer live there because it got trashed about two months ago...

And yeah I will definitely say something to someone, I mean I'm sure you understand how kinda suspicious I am of all this but it seems highly legit to me... I'm just kinda gulped about it now yanno?

Quote:

You still have to be careful. Anyone had access to your old apartment except you?


Quote:
Me and My friend Ricky, we work together... But he was with me the night it happened.

Look dude... I've gotta get ready to go out but I'll be back later or something.

And don't worry about me, someone's being very... Very fucked up but I'll get in contact w/ the police or some shit, see if they can look at the site.

Peace!

Quote:

Ok, mate. You take care tho.

Peace!



So, that was all for now...

Welcome Techno. This ARG is essentially a "try and save these people before they die" type of game. If you look on page 1 of this thread, you'll notice a list of names and a movie. Corey and Kristen are mentioned in the video, and both are dead at this point--we failed to save them. The next target is Marcus Lee. It's our goal to warn him about the killer, let him know he's going to die soon. If we can actually save him, that would be awesome. If not, that's cool, too.

To get a better idea of what's happened so far, read maybe the first 5 to 10 pages of the thread, and check into the movies on the website. Once you have a better grasp, feel free to search/speculate/solve/sit around like the rest of us. Smile

 		just wondering
I've read MOST of the posts here and I've tried to follow along as best I can. I think I can't vewi the videos here at work so I've just been looking over things more..... in the attachment that came with the first email i noticed something that may actually be nothing or something you all have already seen.... I was away from my desk and was walking back when i saw the word 'play' from afar which looked like 'may'

I think the game ends in may....or something happens then....

i can't figure out anything for 'follow'

ive been awake for 18 hours... maybe be im just grasping at straws....
