 		The Youtube link still seems live, with a movie that was uploaded two weeks ago - and hence is presumably in-game. It's similar to the original video, but has been tweaked.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpBtBRFddMM

Some of the other links from before are still live. PM, you might want to change that.

 		the "meta content="RPHJD607" name="DW VHF-UHJ.FRP" is a simple Caesarian Shift

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
RPHJD607 is Omega 374 and DW VHF-UHJ.FRP is at seg-reg.com

not sure if you should shift the number tho

 		So, i have no idea as to what the previous few pages of this thread are referencing, as all of the links are now dead. the youtube channel is still there, but the video was baleeted. so, now the site has the meta stuff in it, and I don't know if the page has changed in any way, since no one has mentioned it.

SO!

There's a column set on the page, in different boxes we have [in descending order]:

Quote:
Soon, you will feel the fury of the Republic.*
Fire will fill your skies
The Rift will be reawakened
L.L.T.P*

* lines are in a grey field.


Hmmm. interesting, methinks.
Republic, Fire, Rift. An invasion? Fire in the sky, abductions?
And what of this L.L.T.P?
It's a common abbvr. for Long Lead Time Procurement, referring to stuff that takes a long time to get, i.e. precut steel. Or is it a name?

So, yeah. Or maybe this is just a placeholder page that leaves us curious till act two happens, which might not be till October, or August, or Next Thursday.

So now I'll send a message to
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
both Omega374SPLATseg-reg.com and Omega607SPLATseg-reg.com [per the ROTing]
and see what happens.

EDIT THE FIRST!:
haven't email yet, looked at the myspace listed. looked at the blog. Hmmm...
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

the first three "chapters" of some kind of novel are posted almost a year ago, chronicles a "strange happening" at Yellowstone, ending with a park ranger "enlisted" for service of a shadowy group of somekind, all set in the future. read it, if you've got the time. the spelling's atrocious, there are grammar problems, and some of the event descriptions are gothy-self indulgent, but it's an intriguing concept. perhaps, just perhaps, this is the universe our game will be placed in... It looks like this guy was writing a novel for the past year, then made A_Twisted_Production, to which he refers to as a "New Legion." maybe he's doing this all himself, or perhaps with some other folks, as it is a 'legion.'


So, on with the emails!

 		got a reply... but my email first.


Quote:
A republic, a fire, and a rift. This certainly doesn't seem to bode well, no? All that's left is a threat of our rivers running red with blood and we've got a real apocalypse scenario! So, if I may be so bold; what, pray-tell, is going on here?


then our friend's reply...

Quote:
[..] Since their introduction into the Guard, the breed (Species x409 batch 9) has shown an increase in their mental and physical abilities.[…]
They are just the first wave… next come the bruisers.


by the by, it's the address WITHOUT rotating the numbers...

madamimadam, here's the myspace page as referenced in an earlier post.
myspace.com/trinashapoc

So, there's a series of... things out there. hmmm. Mayhaps I'll ask WHAT they're a wave OF...

And here's the email I just sent.


Quote:
Well, that's... disconcerting. You speak of a wave, but a wave of WHAT? Are we dealing with a gov't project gone horribly wrong [or right, as the case may be]? Or is it something more external than that? plus, I noticed the ellipses around the quote. Is this from a document of some kind? if so, is there more information we could glean? And to stack yet another question, time seems to be of the essence here, so is there a timetable with which we can work? How long do we have?

I apologize for the mass of questions, but to be well informed is to be ready. And it certainly seems like we need to be ready.



EDIT ONE:
and a response, followed by my response:


Quote:

from: omega428 [note the different number than before!]
Dear Glitch,
You are asking the right questions but to the wrong person.


Then me again:
Quote:
hmm. alright. now, am I talking a different person now, or the same person in a different point on your local "time stream" [if I may use such an inelegant term]? regardless, if not you, then where should I look for who?


Curiouser and Curiouser...

 		sounds like maybe aliens have come to earth? somehow this forces teh government to brainwash people into mindless soldiers?

we might need to keep an eye on "Trinash apoc" which is mysterious

teh 'apoc' part means apocalypse, but trinash? dunno

Actually he just added something new, although it's just a new chapter to his book.

This is all probably a viral for his self published book.

Then we can already tell the quality of the viral.
