Not my best chat work, but maybe you guys can make more sense of it than I could. That'll teach me to try and arg while working.

illianagalean: Hello.
illianagalean: Are you Grettel?
providenceturing: names are a means to an end
illianagalean: But where is the end?
providenceturing: wherever you declare it. nothing truly ends ever. circles chains lines going on into infinity cause and effect and effect creating cause and nothing is nbew but everything is but nothing is and paradox after paradox after enigma and the only end is where you make one where you declare one.
providenceturing: where you say Stop! Enough! or where someone else says it for you. and even that. is not a true end
providenceturing: always a bigger fish always a new beginning always a door and when not a window.
illianagalean: Always somewhere to go, something to see.
illianagalean: Are you safe?
providenceturing: no. but then who is?
illianagalean: Good point.
illianagalean: Are you Patience?
providenceturing: no
illianagalean: I'm sorry. I only seek names so that I might know who I'm talking to. Not do that whole, "this person said" thing. I think it's rude. Sorry to pry.
providenceturing: Call us Phase II
illianagalean: Us? So, Providence and Patience were Phase 1 then?
providenceturing: I cannot speak about the project. they are still with us.
illianagalean: Understood. I only wish to help.
providenceturing: i need you we need you
illianagalean: How can I help?
providenceturing: find her
illianagalean: Who?
illianagalean: The witch?

And after that...nothing.

Also, new tweets from the witch and bard. The bards' being the most interesting.

Laughing Obvious, though, that you checked out Phase1 where we had a bewilderingly fun ride in which (info for others) Patience was Pru's sorta meany sister, maybe only a virtual one.

So I'm wondering to whom she's referring in the last blog sentence (only entry signed).

Yaha, thejoker34, cluey that you noticed. The "apples and bananas" coded blog entry (Phase1) was also a Baconian Cipher.

@thejoker34: then all the cooler that you saw the similarity. There's no nega-embarrassment smiley Laughing

@Lunsford: Sorry, Lu, no WIKI from Phase1 which ended nicely but a bit abruptly. Only the thread somewhere in the archives.

I did. When I got the initial email, I googled the address which led me to the Phase 1 thread, so I made sure to read through the whole thing before jumping in. Wow, that looked like quite a ride. Still makes me wonder why I got a Phase 2 email though, but I feel pretty giddy that I did.

Still need to work on that whole 'arg while working' thing. Yikes.

ETA- Phase 1 thread here.

Update: latest blog entry is titled Entry with again hidden mouseover text.

Below: "I can never stop." and above "dadogi wedi cerdded yn hela , 'ch ll gwna a lovely ddysgl. Achub 'ch hun anad adfer." Gave the odd looking text a go:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Looked like Welsh. This mediocre translation from an online translator:

"father has walked hunting , ' dogs ll do I go lovely dish. Seize ' dogs self before return."

Another word in that blog, "atalia" seems to loosely translate to 'stop'.

G'day y'all @Scarlytte: THX, that word made me Dunno Thinking it's root is also from the Welsh I sussed out above.

Update: the hidden Welsh has been replaced by a visible phrase: "Dadogi ydy yn hela. Archwaethi da. Cer Awron."

Translated online: Father he is being hunting. You taste good. Go Now." Mediocre language bot or Major *heebie jeebies*?
ETA: would explain why the child screams "stop" as the visitor prepares to eat. (H&G again)

Caffiend, I got that email and sent back I chose to help. I got back..

Quote:
saying that you will help, is different then maying any action to do so. do you always stand by and watch when friends are in danger?


Uh..what? Okay then. I just got this, as I'm sure many others did, it was a mass mail...

Quote:
You will have two more chances. two more mistakes. make the best of them. You have one day to prepare.


This is kind of starting to irritate me, you know? Not having a whole hell of a lot to go on, and being told we're making mistakes we don't even know about? Can only do so much with the information, or lack there of, at hand.
