Who is Kim? He said she said that I was her friend who could help her...

He has no memory of telling you anything, dregyn. I'm chatting with him now.

I had to double-check the address, since he seems to be oblivious to this whole thing. It's the same guy, but he's playing dumb, it seems... Update when I've got something substantive.

Edit: A few choice tidbits.
1.) Adam now claims to have "woken up" for the first time in the rubble of the WTC. He had a piece of paper, which led him to a passport, both of which he lost in a house fire a few years ago.
2.) He has a dog named Millie--a golden retriever--who was last owned by a "Mrs Potter" who was supposedly mad (and drowned in her own fish tank). Otherwise he lives alone.
3.) He "gave his whole life story" to a friend, Kim, who was "acting just like [us]" and asking odd questions (jki6783). Have been trying to contact her but with no success.

i also had a conversation with adam. He gave me pretty much the exact same info he gave you, except he also mentioned the hole in the back of his neck and how it sometimes bleeds.

he also mentioned that it had bled earlier that day when he spoke to kim.

however it was not bleeding when he woke up in the morning...just whilst talking to kim.[/quote]

Ok, so after seeing this thread & reading the posts - it looks as though I have some explaining 2 do. First, I'm Kim. I have no relation 2 this game other than I'm playing just like u guys. With that said...

On March 8th, approx. 6pm, I received a new friend request from "a.1002119@ymail.com" (no message, just a request) on yahoo IM. I recently signed up for a new arg -Wolfpack PMC- so I assumed it was related & added him. I didn't talk 2 him that night, but I did send an email (regarding Wolfpack).

The next day, a.1002119 IMd me & we had quite a lengthy conversation. I now know this "Adam Smith" has nothing to do w/ the Wolfpack game - so I'm not sure what it's related 2. The Wolfpack arg is a bit competitive, so I unfortunately didn't save the convo. However, it was such a strange one I feel as if its been burned into my memory. When I get a chance, I'll post what I can remember.

In the meantime, I think we should watch what we say 2 him. I caught Adam in a couple of fibs & from what he told elite.fencer (alicesezone I pressume?), it sounds like he may not be totally truthful w/ us.
@alicesezone - he asked if u were a friend of mine & I said I didn't know u.
I'm not sure what "help" he is refering 2.

Has anyone found a site or anything related 2 this? I'm a bit confused as 2 where this is all going...

Yes, I'm alicesezone. You can tell him I'm a friend of yours Smile

He doesn't remember anything about talking with Dregyn, only with you, Kim. He doesn't remember a machine that can reach into the future or anything.

However, the hole in his neck is still there...

I tried talking to Adam today--he was mostly away (8+ minutes between responses) and seemed completely uninterested/unwilling to provide new information. He said he was busy watching a movie. Rolling Eyes

Frankly, I think this is just some bored kid who's messing with us, not an actual ARG.

After today, I tend to agree... I think I will wait until this "Adam Smith" initiates contact & I guess go from there. Do u think this guy got our yahoo IDs from here? Maybe that's why no email? Crying or Very sad I don't like being had...

Hey, everyone.
Am I crazy or did he mention Bluetooth in 1993? I don't think it came out till at least 1997. Also, Kim. I'd like to know a little bit more about you if you don't mind. Don't take this personally, but if for no other reason than that touchy mess about "coming into the sandbox" last week, I don't fully believe you are not part of the game. Maybe a few more deets about meeting Adam? And has Adam or anyone else said anything more about the fellow who warned us not to trust him?

Adam's been quiet--and you're right about the Bluetooth thing.

I think it's safe to conclude that Adam was a dry-run by somebody who didn't prepare very well.

Damn. And time travel's always so alluring too. Oh well. Maybe they'll get their stuff together and blow our pants off in a month! Who knows. Until then...your move Adam...
