 [SUMMARY] Updates from Nov. 15 through Nov. 30
a quick review

Consultant Bunker
Art Lyndley's site sends us to three deaddrop locations -each at an Indian Mound in the US. Each is also a location on the map that Helen Riley has on her site.

remember if you go to the fallout page you have to highlight the page to see the text, it is written in white letters.

Nov. 19 - update included to alan and d jpg which led to a location in North Carolina

Nov. 26 update included to jennifer andr jpg which led to a location in Indiana

Both of these locations, along with the location outside of Atlanta from earlier, led to dead drops. We don't yet know how the dead drop items got where they are or how Art knows where to send us.

The dead drops included:

1. To Kevin: a book called Tahara, Boy Mystic of India, inscribed to Elmer by Uncle Rathur; a blue bottle filled with sand; and, a flyer to a meeting called the Collective Consciousness Experiment. I think the sand is from a beach where Kevin's family held the memorial service, not sure if the sand was collected by Kevin as a child, or possibly by someone else. The book and the flyer are his too.

See Transtar's: who so wonderfully went to get this for us: photobucket

2. To Alan: a vinyl LP tribute to JFK broken into pieces, when re-assembled a sticky white hand is visible; a bottle with hair labeled JFK and a Page of Swords Tarot card ( I don't think Kevin's had a card if I'm wrong I'll change that one).

See j5's writeup on the Sentry Outpost wiki Thanks to J5 and "Cliff" for getting them for us.


3. To Jennifer: a Kenneth Cole reaction wallet with a checkbook register in it; a torn photo of a man in a tux with a white rose on the lapel and a head with evil written on it; and a tarot card of the tower

Thanks to Chixor for making a 3 hour drive (twice I think) to get this for us. Her flickr account has photos too.

Pope Tattles
Eddie Pope updated twice while I was away. I'm not sure of the exact dates.

Issue 4 explains that Kevin is dead and announces that he has found the Outpost. He subsequently joins the forums and posts there a couple of times. Issue 4 also shows that he has a copy of the Pope Tattles that Peter (from Forsythe Industries) gave Art Here showing that either someone sent him the link, Art gave it to him or he found his way to Art's sites hidden messages, just like we did.

Issue 5 tells us SHOCK!!! Bryce was released from the institution months ago, a year after he was put away... Shocked The idea is Bryce was released because of insurance reasons, we are skeptical. Eddie has an interview with the vaguely slimy and disreputable doctor that treated Bryce as well as a letter from Peter to Alan (Political Texan) mentioning an item that Peter (from Forsythe Security..remember) gave Alan. I suspect it was one of the JFK items in the dead drop cache found by j5 mentioned above.
He also has stuff about Bryce maybe being in North Carolina

Rileyssignals
I'm sure Dr. Riley has tons of interesting and important information, but I haven't listened to it so I can't summarize it. What I do know, she did a Thanksgiving update which helped Chixor find the deaddrop in Indiana.

All the updates on Riley's site are dated. There are helpful maps and pictures too, if you don't want to listen to the podcasts you should at least take a look.

We have an email for her now and she has been corresponding with players. She was there for the original scream and now feels guilty and wants to stop it.

Forsythe Security
No real updates but there is an event coming up in New York City in December. More information will be posted when available.

Nightmare confessions
More nightmares Most important one from Dee, a character, a dreamer who attended the West Virginia event last year, who says that BA is fine, but acting strange.

I think that's it.

This game is so much fun. I hope more people join us. You can play here at uf or at Sentry Outpost.
