I got it too. I think we were supposed to see the names on the first one.

The address appears to be a residential neighborhood. Liberty Street in Gmaps

OK, we have now two emails:

areyoufollowingthisSPLATgmail.com

and

parousiaministrySPLATgmail.com

Do we have something to do with the same organisation?
I ask because the first message was about something who brings us a danger.
And the second message was about New Church. Could it be two antagonists?

BTW hearing the name "Ehasver" I think about Ahasver
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wandering_Jew

In the nazi propaganda this character was misused in xenophobic theories by nazis.

Especially since 'van Ehasver' doesn't even get geneology hits from google...

Hmmm. Confused

Parousia Ministry uses a gmail mailing list. I suppose, they are opponents of that first agent-mail.

Btw, there are many Parousia Ministries online. Can somebody explain the Parousia Ministries meaning in Christian context?

Sounds like Ahasver, who cannot die. What a pity, he seems to be bad guy in this ARG... What I pity because I really like this guy Smile

Damn, so I'm not the ony Agent 50? D:

Bleedingmaroon08 was a CON08 addy, yeah. That was John Blacksmith, who died of fatal insomnia from eating a sushi made out of the remains of Yori Tanaka, if I remember correctly.

That game was really disturbing, now that I've put it that way XD

I think this is where the ARG is going, given some of the symbolism present and the fact that "The Pardoner's Tale" is mentioned specifically in the picture sent out.

Update 2: Btw, who is Fish Family? Only this address (and Muromets) aren`t recruited agents.


There was a poster named jbfish on the vitd stuff. Why doesn't he have an agent number?

Also, the agent numbers only begin after 40. Any relevance?

Oh, and Agent 76 ready for duty.

Is the order of numbers random? The only thing linking me to 76 is that Texas A&M was founded in 1876.

I got that email too, Nighthawk....

If this turns out to be an evangelical ARG, I'm gonna be seriously pissed....


Let me clarify something first, though.
Do we have any hardcore evidence that this is related to VITD or ARGCon08? I'd just like to know because I don't like playing follow-up ARGs to games I haven't played Razz

ETA: "Ehasver" of Dr. Mel Van Ehasver anagrams to Save Her. Coincidence....or....(I think you know the rest.)
