Sam Deercot's Digg profile game I think the Digg game that he is playing deserves a whole new topic to discuss it, it is going on for the next ten days, and I can't even figure out the first one, so i could definitely use some help

From Sams Digg page
I am a serial killer. Starting 7/26/08 and continuing for 5 days I will anonymously submit a story with a code hidden in it. Find and decode it to get the next day 's article. After five days the hunt moves into the real world, where you will uncover my darkest secrets. Now, click the link to see how I negotiate with a hooker (interactive fiction).
Video Clue

Right, i got all of that information, but i still can't find the story that he posted with the secret message yet, so that is what i'm looking for help in, i did send him a shout on digg though and he said this:
I'm asking you to please check out my video and interactive game and consider digging it. It's taken a long time to put together (months) and it involved Digg and a hooker. Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!
-Sam
So i think everyone needs to digg his video before we can go further

anagram of "A Karma Mad as you" Sadako Yamamura
Sadako Yamamura (山村貞子, Yamamura Sadako?) is the antagonist in Koji Suzuki's novel Ring and the 1998 film adaptation. She returns as the antagonist in Rasen, is the protagonist in Ring 0: Birthday, and appears in the Korean and American remakes of the Ring cycle films.
In the original novel, Sadako was portrayed with testicular feminization syndrome, meaning that she was anatomically male. In both the novels and movies, it is possible to infer that she is the daughter of some oceanic based entity, making her a quasi-oceanic demigod.
Her name combines the Japanese words for "chaste" (sada) and "child" (ko).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamamura_Sadako
This has to be a username somewhere. There is a user on youtube with this name but it is unlikely it is Sam. Perhaps we should be trying this username at other sites he has used?

Sorry, didn't think it impertinent so I didn't post it, I already tried that route. I really need to start posting everything I find.
Here's my dilemma. I posted a lot of stuff that has to do with this in Weekend fun. Do I need to move it here? I saw no reason to start a new topic since it was still related and a fairly new topic. I think it's ridiculous to hop back and forth between topics like we have been. If I need to move it here I will, or if you want to come back to the other one it's fine. It's whatever, I just want to get on the same page.
Errrmmm...There is nothing there though. Not saying you're wrong I just figured the trail would be complete by now.

Not to be argumentative, but actually most everything that is on Weekend of fun, recently at least, has been related to the Great White Throne which seems to be another direction. I may be off on the digg profile being the one we are looking for but it is highly unlikely that the sentence, "A Karma Mad as You." that the CM provided, would anagram perfectly into the name of a Japanese character who is seeking vengeance for a murder and just be a coincidence. That definitely has not be brought up. just my .02 shiny pennies

Cool, we'll stay here. I know what you mean about the anagram. It is too coincidental. Have you contacted Sam to see if you are on track? I initially looked at the time you joined and didn't realize that acount opened a little while ago. Yeah, it's got to be it, but there is nothing to lead us further.

yeah i agree because hes been talking about "thanks for diggs" or like "please digg this"
so maybe hes waiting for a set number of diggs?
and about that lady(sadako) her bio just says "murder" id say thats something to keep an eye on

Yes I emailed him at gmail and at youtube. By the way I apologise if I came off as rude, it is hard to show a difference in opinion without sounding angry when you are reading a written response. I have not been following the other aspect of his latest video, so I prefer having the Digg topic of the username separate. I hope the CM replies soon
Juli
EDIT 1 I already Dugg his video as well, perhaps we should try to put together an email list of people who aren't regularly active and ask them to go digg his video?

I have a huge email list from something else we did. I could start emailing everyone, if anything maybe it will get some interest drummed up. You didn't come off as rude. I'm not one of those people that flies off the handle when someone disagrees with me, and that was why I brought it up for discussion. It's all good in the hood I'll start a digg acount and figure out the best way to approach it to the others. Any ideas let me know.
