Hmmm. I may have to lurk this one... Seems pretty interesting.

Next step is to press him for the cell number for "special" access, I guess.

I assume the cell number field (optional) is for harvesting purposes. A sort of sign-up page if you will, for anyone wishing to receive calls as part of the ARG.

emails from Tyler as follows (some of it spoilered as it contains stuff found in the website detailed above):

Me:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Does the word Kryostega ring any bells? Just WHAT is that thing you've got in there with you?


Tyler:
Quote:

No clue. Some sort of lizardy, amphibian thing I think.


Me:
Quote:
What sort of size are we talking? 15 foot? bigger? How is it being contained? Sorry about all the questions, I'm just really concerned.


Can you tell me about Dr. Wesley Jones? I understand you're a little unsure of Dynimix's motives, is Dr. Jones someone you can trust?

Again sorry for all the questions. I just have issues with scientists who don't know when enough is enough.


Tyler:
Quote:
A bit more than 15 foot. It's being contained in a strong steel cage, with electrified bars that are usually off but can be turned on if it acts too violently.

I don't really know much about the Doctor besides the fact that he's the project lead.


Hmm. He's rather terse in his responses, do you think?

Report SC289X7232009

Did some more tests on SC-289X. Reacts violently to whistleblowing.
One technician, Tyler Redmond, almost died conducting that test. Does
not bode well for up-close examinations. Will have some of the lower-
level employees conduct those to minimize risk.

- Dr. Wesley Jones

anyone know of any mythical creatures or current creatures that react violently to whistle blowing?

Oh nice! In response to amandel's suggestion that he blow the whistle near it! I hope the whole thing stays this dynamic.

Regarding the animals that might react that way... not sure. However the description of the creature as a reptile / amphibian thing over 15 feet long does correspond with Wikipedia's description of the Kryostega... Could it be that they've captured one which survived extinction, or possibly cloned one in a lab?

There is a new note/report posted from Dr. Jones. Apparently they are going to try to make some casts of different body parts of it to try and compare it to fossil records. Hope they have tranqs!

I don't like the sound of that... Considering Tyler was nearly killed blowing a whistle near the creature, do you really think they'll obtain these casts without at least one casualty?

Neither contact with SC or with me and my nega-bril suggestions Rolling Eyes has caused Tyler any harm....yet.

Amandel,

I've always have chronic headaches, ever since I was little.


Ditto on agreeing that this reads to go very sour, very soon.

I sent Tyler the following:

Quote:
Hi Tyler, me again. Is there any chance you could try and get a photo of the creature? Even something on a mobile phone?

Thanks and good luck,
Karl.


And he responded:
Quote:
Sure, I'll try. Now I and some of the other technicians have to take some casts of it. Wish me luck!


Let's hope he gets out of there alive

just checked my mail, this is probably in responce to mail i sent Tyler yesterday

me

hello Tyler, i've just got up to speed with your amphibious problem, i am only too willing to help if i can, you only need ask......

can you tell me anymore about this creature, there may not be a DNA match, but have you tried looking into fossil records?

Tyler

Hm, interesting. I'll look into that. Or, at least, I'll suggest it into my superiors and they'll look into it. Thanks!

I saw the video and I'm seriously stoked about helping you out anyway I can! I'm trying to play catch up, but thankfully things are just taking off. Would there happen to be anything I should be monitoring on the web, like a twitter account or profile on a social networking site? I'd be willing to do what I can, so let me know what you need. With it being amphibious or reptile in nature, it should be cold blooded, perhaps keeping it's body temperature cooled down will slow it down and keep it from having the energy to be too aggressive (?) Hopefully that will make it easier to study.

Thanks, that shoul help me a lot, especially since I just got assigned to help take some casts of it along with some other employees.

"Shoul" ? clue or typo?... Hope he doesn't lose any digits or limbs...

New report posted by Dr. Jones

Soft music didn't work, tranqs didn't work, but gas seemed to knock it out. Hopefully that means Tyler is still safe for now.

Lol I mentioned using music to Tyler last night. I agree, hopefully he's okay and they got the casts.

Update Report SC289X7242009
Quote:
Technicians went into the cage and approached SC-289X to take casts.
Midway into the process, the creature woke up and began to attack the
technicians. Gas was immediately pumped into the containment area and
both the creature and the employees were knocked out. Fortunately,
spare technicians were on hand and were able to complete the cast
making. Analysis of the fossils will ensue.

 - Dr. Wesley Jones

Interesting job description: spare technician
