 		Well, I seem to be one lucky son-of-a-smurf.

I just got the same message...
...and a half hour chat to go along with it.
I think if we ask the right questions and figure out what those biblical names have in common, we could find out more.

My chat with him:
Quote:
Last: help
me: why whats going on?
Last: shackled
me: where are you?
1:07 PM Last: shackled
me: how can I free you?
Last: need more for the program
me: more what
Last: more
me: more people?
Last: yes
help
1:08 PM me: how many more?
Last: more
me: I need something to aim for
Last: how many more
more
1:09 PM me: are you feeling okay?
stay with me here
Last: help
me: okay
Last: thank you
me: real quick
1:10 PM we never got a solid name on you
Last: i was oshii
me: who are you now?
Last: not oshii
me: what can I call you
1:11 PM ?
1:12 PM Last: simeon

help
1:13 PM me: what happened to make you "not oshii"
?
1:14 PM Last: shackled

1:15 PM Last: oshii
me: are you shackled by who you used to be?
1:16 PM Last: oshii
me: why oshii?
1:17 PM Last: help
me: alright
I will send people your way


My chat with him and another player named Tex Ripley (swithed to a group chat):

tex.ripley: yes..
me: do you know about people in the bible
1:30 PM tex.ripley: some... yes..

Last: abel
1:31 PM me: abel, is your brother trying to kill you?
Last: oshii

tex.ripley: I just logged on and got pop-up
me: into this one?

1:37 PM me: cool

tex.ripley: you going to post onto uF..? maybe he's getting active again.. try and stir some activity again..
1:38 PM me: yup
every chat I have with an in game character goes there
tex.ripley: sure.. I use mibbit.com or use the uF irc link on the forum..
but I can mail it to you..
me: yes please

New names were added. New articles, too.

There has to be something else going on, right?

Does anyone else have Gmail chat to monitor the conversations?

 		Seems like a while since there was any action on here. Not sure when the last update to www.last-command.com was.

Something interesting:

Was at the theater today seeing Drag Me To Hell, and one of the previews was for a movie called 9. It's about a post-apocalyptic world where machines are in control and roaming the earth to kill the few remaining humans. Its animated. Its dark with green lettering. And it comes out 9/9/09. Novday?

Could be, yeah! On last-command.com/ they say "94 days until novday" and that is 9-9-09 (if I counted properly).

 		So could this just be a failed attempt at a viral marketing campaign? I'm discouraged by the lack of recent action.

building the list / shackeled
Decided to go through this thread again due to the recent replies. Boredom can be virtueous.

Actually noticed another Oshii comment apart from the 'Life is an imitation of...' one.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
oshii Says:
September 26th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
she is with me

i am with her

with her, i am

does that upset you, upstart?


Located: building the list > trapped in your (article)
So, yup, who's her?


A 'new' category that can be tied to previous chats players had with the programmer;

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I noticed (that may have been noticed before) the category 'Shackled' with a more recent (October 29, 2008 11:32 am) article added. However, it doesn't seem to contain any valid hints.


A sum of 2009 acitvity:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Most recent article seems to be February 2, 2009 5:08 pm under Uncategorised. On the same date a new blog entry was placed by Miriam Moses / Oshii in the blog (http://244951634.blogspot.com/) asking about Aback Elms...

Conclusion: activity during 2009 it is and 90 days till novday.


That pretty much sums up any 'changes' I have noticed since last year. Not sure if this is still alive&kicking, then again; countdown's still on. Wink
