 		So apparently I know the guy who is running this (news to me) and he asked me to get very OOG for you guys and tell you the following

Quote:
"I wanted to let them know that the game is still on. Thanks to a combination of finals and an allergic reaction, I will be out of commission for just a while longer. Sorry about that."


Sorry for that out of game experience

 		I'm in, just e-mailed Library, imed John.

Quote:
Hello,

I'm someone who would love to help you, a few people I know have asked me to help and so I've come to you first. You told someone I know that you found an interesting book, is there any chance that you could type out the sections? There may be a hint somewhere inside of there that would give us some more information. Also; is there any theme to the books inside the library? I mean, are the books all reference books? Are they older, do you happen to know the average publication date?

There also may be something with the silence, so keep your ears open for us and if you hear anything unusual, please don't hesitate to send me or someone else an e-mail. The faster we figure out how to get you out of there, the better.

Also; please be careful. The water seems to be safe but there does seem to be someone calling himself, I believe this person is a he anyways, the Low Key. You may have already heard this from someone else.

Also, is there anything near the door that seems out of place? An e-mail that one of us received mentioned a phrase "it's at the door", I believe that is what it was at least. If this is meant to be a hint toward your freedom, anything you see may be of value. But there are a few of us who think this may be a warning, which I believe you should be aware of. If this Low Key person is dangerous, you may want to look around the room to find something to arm yourself with.

Also; Didn't you mention you had some tools? What exactly are they? A lock-pick, now broken and what else?

Hopefully we'll get you out of this room quickly, I'll do my best to help any way I can.


That was e-mailed.

[01:32] duo_790: Hello, I've been asked by a friend to try and help you out. He's informed me of everything that's happened so far and I need to ask you to listen carefully to what you hear. The background on your desktop is a picture made that he found on the internet and the caption for this picture mentioned that the silence can be important in some way. Anything you can add might help us get you out of that room faster


^ Has anyone else gotten the vibe that the caption for that picture may be a clue?

I also IMed Library and tried iming beyond. Has anyone else tried contacting Beyond after the first e-mail?

Edit;
No one asked me to join, it just seemed to be a better IG way to jump in. Just saying.

 		Guys, beyondtherooms may have a lot to do with the EEE zipfile.

Think here: is it any coincidence that his/her/its profile changed from Nunya Bidness to "3E?"

And what do you think of when you think "3E?" EEE.

So next time you guys talk to John, have him try "Nunya Bidness" and permutations thereof.

I don't have Ymessenger, so I dunno if I wanna get that involved, but I figured I'd throw this thought I had out there.

Also, my thoughts on limited Gina/John contact: they seem to be building opposing sides. Gina sure knows a lot about how this is run -- did she help set it up? John, on the other hand, is a straight-up victim as far as we know.

Or is he? Should we challenge that paradigm?

 		Nope, I'm a total ARG newbie. I've dived in, starting with Intimation, going from there to ArgenSoft, and I figured I'd peek my head in here, since this one might be sufficiently creepy.

I'm not so sure that Gina knows how this is run, rather it seems like she talking like a reporter. Giving us everything she sees and hears.

If she knew how this was run, she would drink the water knowing it wasn't poisoned.

I do think that the keys are in the silence, something by the door, and in the book Gina has.

What did Gina say was on her door? Could that be the password for EEE?

 		I'm assuming this goes here... got an IM tonight.

Quote:
[03:34] thesemivowel: So.
[03:34] thesemivowel: You have a problem.
[03:34] Jain: do i?
[03:35] thesemivowel: Yes you do.
[03:36] thesemivowel: Multiple contacts from parts unknown, leaving these fleeting little messages and then disappearing. Sometimes its soo long before you hear from them again. But its not really their fault, they're 'preoccupied'.
[03:38] thesemivowel: I know why you haven't heard from Amelia or John. Or their friends for that matter.
[03:38] Jain: oh really? care to enlighten me/
[03:40] thesemivowel: Its obvious. What reason do most people have for stopping all contact in a life or death situation? They didn't make it. And quite a few between them didn't either. Not your fault dear, thats just how life works sometimes. But I know what problem you and yours are having.
[03:42] Jain: and what problem is that?
[03:43] thesemivowel: Perspective. Your like the dinosaurs, with everything filled out and glorious, only to fail because of something can't see. I'll help you outside the house in return for a bit of a favor later.
[03:44] thesemivowel: How does that sound?
[03:44] Jain: i'm still listening but making no promises
[03:44] Jain: i suppose you have the password?
[03:47] thesemivowel: Hmm? I don't have a password. Whatever games they're playing inside are closed to me. But let me tell you this. This is the last group that they'll be able to bring in. Its all over at the start of October, and they'll be using the house for the Endgame. We'll need more information if I'm to help you.
[03:48] Jain: what kind of information?
[03:51] thesemivowel: Before the last couple of signals went out, you received some contact information. Follow that as far as you can. Also, I will try and get something to the last bunch, but it wont be easy. The only reason you were allowed to talk to the groups that you were is because they were going to be used for bait.
[03:52] thesemivowel: Any questions?
[03:52] Jain: yes, who am i speaking to?
[03:54] thesemivowel: I used to work for the Feds, but now I'm more of a private sector guy. As for my name; well if I give everything away then theres no challenge, and without challenge we all die. So lets leave that one blank.
[03:54] thesemivowel: Any other questions
[03:55] Jain: well you caught me just about to go to bed so i'll have to process some things
[03:55] Jain: i'll be on tomorrow though
[03:55] thesemivowel: Sounds like a plan darlin'
[03:55] Jain: Very Happy
[03:55] Jain: well i look forward to talking to you again
[03:55] thesemivowel: As do I.


I have some family coming in from out of town so I'll be off and on until Monday but I'm going to try to catch him tomorrow before I leave. I'd be happy to take suggestions of what to ask/info to gather.

 		Wow. I just caught myself up with all of Amelia in the Bathroom and all the previous posts on this thread, and it's super creepy. I may have to lurk this.

Not sure what to ask him, though. Let me sit on it.

 		Well I just had this chat with him:
Quote:

thesemivowel: Did you get that information I asked for? It would be useful to hurry. I beleive I saw a van pulling up to the house this morning. They maybe geting ready for the final push.
angelus78gak: no I couldn't get it.
thesemivowel: Why not? It was a simple request, contct information from your last few communiques. This is really quite annoying.
angelus78gak: things have been really crazy here, remind me what that information was?
thesemivowel: Before the lines went dead, you got some kind of contact information. I'll need that in order to help you.
thesemivowel is typing a message.
thesemivowel: Hmmm. Looks like someone else is on the line. I'll be in touch
angelus78gak: I'll be here


I wish I'd known what to ask but there you go.
