 		oh, lol. I didn't realize that. Apparently Riley thinks lifegospel is the key and that he has to say the words to keep bad stuff from happening. That's what she told me when I talked to her a few minutes ago.

 		Hi guys... I'm just a bit curious about this. I have not played, lurked, or followed this one. Early on, I added the blog and twitter acct. to follow, but I never participated or interacted with the character at all. So I'm really wondering why the latest tweet has my name in it, (my real name).
I was busy playing Hallucinine at the time this began, and didn't want to get distracted. And I know the character has posted that he/she doesn't know Adam or anything about Hallucinine... so what's up?
Why was my name tweeted as being one of the three in the notebook/riddle/key thing?? You guys think maybe this actually could be related to Hallucinine and the pm is saying "hey, over here"??
Also, one of the last events to happen in the other game, was that a notebook, (or notebooks), were stolen or missing...

edit--
Um, nevermind..... We got our answer on the other game.

 		Since my name was listed on the tweet, I sent Abe/Riley a message:
Quote:
I see that you believe I may be able to help you. I'm not quite sure why my name was in your notebook. But I will do whatever I can for you. Please get back to me and let me know how you are doing. Are you safe? - I hope so.
Anyway, please let me know what you need.

the response:
Quote:

I originally thought that Bryce Percifield was the key, but now I think he may only be part of it, the binder we found contains an icon being split into five pieces, each piece contains a name, with two of the names un readable. Yours is one of them.

He also seen me online and started a chat. I'm sorry that I didn't really know what to try to ask. Anyway here is what was said:
Quote:

Good Morning Zelda, you have questions?
5:25pmZelda

yes... hello

is there some way that I might can help you?
5:26pmAbraham

Find the other two keys, solve the riddles

thatmight help
5:27pmZelda

is there anything else you'd like me to know?
5:28pmAbraham

I have posted the riddle, please solve it, you may be able to prevent this in your future
5:28pmZelda

thank you... I'll do what I can
5:28pmAbraham

Thank you SmileSmile
5:29pmZelda

yw


--I hope this might help out.

 		Me: Can you think of when and where the initial accident happened?

Abraham Brunt: There was only one accident, but it happened in about 2012. We're still trying to figure out where and why, even WHAT happened.

me: 2012. Back here in 2009, there is a big fear of that date. I believe the exact date is december 21, 2012. This is when the mayan calendar resets, but people are taking it as the end of the world. Maybe those people are right...

No idea if this is of some help, but its better to post info I'm not sure about and have it be useless, than not post info I'm not sure about and have it be helpful Smile

Head of Project R.I.L.E.Y.
I had a friend request the other day from A Patricia Clemens.
Today I had a private message waiting for me:

Quote:

Patricia Clemens October 18 at 1:43am
Dear Ms. Perkins
It has come to our attention that you are in contact with a rogue government project. If you do not cease all communications, we will be forced to take drastic measures.
Thank you and have a nice life.
-Patrica Clemens, Head of Project R.I.L.E.Y.


----

Anyone have any suggestions on what I might say in response to this? My first instinct is to not be very polite. But I think I'll wait until I can come up with something that might be useful...

 		Ok... I got bored and just couldn't wait any longer, so I replied to Patricia. I decided to stick with my original urge to respond with whatever came to mind. I really couldn't think of a nice way to reply... so here's what I sent.
Quote:

Excuse you!?
The subject of your message says "request", yet you send me a threat? What's your problem? And what do you mean "it has come to OUR attention"? Are you a person, or a group?
If you expect me to do as you ask, or demand, I might be a bit more cooperative if you would bother to first introduce yourself. Then you might want to let me know what this is all about. I don't see how it is ANY of your business who I associate with. But if you believe it is your business, then please explain yourself.
I will force myself to try to remain civil, and keep an open mind. However, I would like to ask that you please be a bit nicer when you address me in the future.
Now- please tell me who you don't want me to communicate with and why? Do you feel that I may be putting someone or something in danger? I really do not understand. So please, take a minute, adjust your attitude, and get back to me.

And by-the-way... thank you very much- I AM having a nice life!
Sincerely,
-Zelda

 		I just had this conversation with Partricia.. Sorry it doesn't make much sense

Quote:
8:08pmPatricia

Good Morning Ms. West
8:10pmEmily

Hello.
8:15pmPatricia

Have you put any more thought into stopping all contact with #9?
8:18pmEmily

NO, I haven't

Riley seems very nice...
8:19pmPatricia

It is a government project that shouldn't exist
8:19pmEmily

but there are alot of things that exist and shouldn't
8:20pmPatricia

Our superiors told us to destroy it as soon as testing had been completed
8:20pmEmily

What were they created for?
8:21pmPatricia

You might as well ask why we were created, we did it because we were told to
8:21pmEmily

I see. Isn't that a bit like being a blind follower of a cult... things should always be questioned you know.

How were you going to Destroy them?
8:22pmPatricia

our superiors are very powerful, they are the ones who created the US government.

Burn the bodies
8:23pmEmily

That's awful
8:24pmPatricia

It is our job
8:24pmEmily

Still...something should be done to stop people such as that
8:25pmPatricia

You can not, it is like trying to stop the tides
8:26pmEmily

Well, if one believes in fringe science then the tides can be stopped
8:26pmPatricia

Lies
8:27pmEmily

Do you know why Riley and the others were created? What was the purpose? Surely you were told why you had to make them.
8:28pmPatricia

It was a test, to make sure it was even possible. We were also to alter the DNA
8:31pmEmily

of the experiments?
8:31pmPatricia

Yes
8:31pmEmily

why 9 though?
8:32pmPatricia

No, there are 13 in total, #9 is the one that escaped

All 13 have been altered
8:33pmEmily

so there are 13 of them? Do they all have theses.. abilities that Riley saw in the ones that are dead now?
8:34pmPatricia

Each one has a different ability. We were only in charge for the first five or so, after that the US government took over.
8:35pmEmily

so Riley is one that the government made?
8:35pmPatricia

Yes, it is
8:36pmEmily

She is
8:36pmPatricia

It is not human
8:36pmEmily

So

Are they all female in appearance?
8:37pmPatricia

They all look alike, so yes. They all have a female appearance
8:37pmEmily

so they're like clones?
8:37pmPatricia

That is exactly what they are
8:37pmEmily

what happens if Riley finds all the parts of this key in the riddle?
8:38pmPatricia

Then all 13 will be destroyed and you will have a future without them
8:38pmEmily

Do you know what the five parts of the key are?
8:39pmPatricia

Yes, but if I told you, I would be executed and your life would be in danger
8:40pmEmily

i see. Can you tell me if they are inanimate or animate at least?

Hm ,I guess that is a no.
8:41pmPatricia

They are all alive
8:41pmEmily

I see....
8:41pmPatricia

at least, in your time
8:41pmEmily

So you're in the future as well?
8:41pmPatricia

The future? No, I am in the present, it is you who are in the past
8:42pmEmily

but it's my present.. So it has to be stopped in the past to protect your present?
8:43pmPatricia

No, it has to be stopped in your present to protect your future

Cunfusing, isn't it?
8:44pmEmily

A little. So if the pieces of the key are put together it will stop?
8:45pmPatricia

It will be prevented, maybe for a year, maybe forever.
8:46pmEmily

so there's really no guarantee that it will be stopped. What was the incident that happened? Why do so many people get sick in riley's time? Is her time your time as well?
8:47pmPatricia

No guarantee. The incident, nobody knows what happened.

People getting sick? No, the same amount of people got sick in your time

Yes, my time is its time
8:48pmEmily

I see. From the way it was spoken of it seemed like more people were getting ill
8:49pmPatricia

No, we still have ilness of course, but nothing new. Tuberculosis, Cancer, things like that.
8:50pmEmily

ah.

What is going to happen if I don't stop associating with Riley? You seemed very adamant that I stop.
8:52pmPatricia

Your life will be in danger. She is not supposed to exist and therefore, not be in contact with anything or anybody
8:54pmPatricia

I must go now, but go tell the people on Unforum what I said. Their lives are also in danger.

And yes, I know about Unfiction

Quote:
Patricia

Hello again
8:58pmEmily

Hello
8:58pmPatricia

have you been waiting on here all night?
8:59pmEmily

No. You've only been gone for a moment.
9:00pmPatricia

Maybe for you, but I went to sleep, I have been offline for 8 hours
9:00pmEmily

That's odd. Time progresses faster for you then?
9:01pmPatricia

I do not know, I suppose it is all relative
9:01pmEmily

It seems so.
9:03pmEmily

So how will my life be in danger if I don't stop talking to Riley. If you're in the future as is the experiment how am I going to be threatened?
9:04pmPatricia

I am not in that sector, I have no knowledge
9:04pmEmily

sector?
9:05pmPatricia

A subdivison of SHAde that works on a specific thing, I myself am in Researc
9:06pmEmily

what is SHAde. TO my knowledge there isn't an organization by that name. Is it part of a collective?
9:07pmPatricia

SHADE is a secret government organization, you will find no records of them.

Think Men In Black
9:08pmEmily

i see. What is there purpose? Taking out those with too much information?
9:09pmPatricia

That, among other things. They do what the government does not want done publicly.
9:10pmEmily

i see.And the one your are a member of does research and experimentation then?
9:10pmPatricia

Yes
9:10pmEmily

has anything like the 13 ever been created before or after them?
9:11pmPatricia

Not to my knowledge
9:11pmEmily

i see. Who were they cloned from?

do they age at all?
9:11pmPatricia

They were cloned from a woman named Helma Stanz

They age, but much slower than a normal human
9:12pmEmily

Helma?
9:13pmPatricia

Yes, why is the name important?
9:13pmEmily

It's not. Just unusual

Why her?
9:14pmPatricia

she volunteered
9:14pmEmily

was she motivated by compensation or was she part of one of the organizations like yours and SHADE?
9:15pmPatricia

She was paid a fair sum. But all she did was give blood and submit medical History
9:16pmEmily

That was enough to clone her?
9:16pmPatricia

Blood has enough DNA
9:16pmEmily

ah. How did you alter the DNA?
9:18pmPatricia

We took the strand and added some genomes. I really do not know the details
9:19pmEmily

But weren't you directly involved?
9:19pmPatricia

Yes, but I am not the one who did the altering
9:19pmEmily

who did?
9:20pmPatricia

A man named Arnie
9:20pmEmily

Did you know him well?
9:20pmPatricia

no
9:21pmEmily

i see. You never spoke to him?
9:21pmPatricia

I did, but we only spoke about work, never life outside the facility
9:22pmEmily

ah. So you didn't know anything about him. Were there others involved?
9:23pmPatricia

One more person, Sara Wright
9:24pmEmily

What did she do?
9:24pmPatricia

She documented results, if I am correct
9:25pmEmily

But that was all?
9:25pmPatricia

That I know of, yes
9:25pmEmily

okay

thank you for answering my questions
9:26pmPatricia

No problem, I just want #9 back
9:27pmEmily

Why do you want her back?
9:27pmPatricia

So we can destroy her
9:27pmEmily

Are Sara and Arnie helping you find her?
9:27pmPatricia

They are considered MIA for now
9:28pmEmily

you don't know what happened to them?
9:28pmPatricia

No
9:28pmEmily

When did they disappear?
9:29pmPatricia

I do not know
9:29pmEmily

i see
9:30pmEmily

Why is the company letting you tell me and the others all this?
9:31pmPatricia

I have been authorised to give you almost any information that I know.
9:32pmEmily

By whom and why?
9:32pmPatricia

By my superiors in SHADE, they are the ones who ordered me to retrieve #9
9:33pmEmily

that's why they are letting you tell us that you know? So we can help you catch Riley?
9:33pmPatricia

Yes

Do you know where #9 is?
9:34pmEmily

I don't know where she is. No, I am trying to figure that out though.

What will you do if you can't find her?
9:35pmPatricia

Keep trying,
9:35pmEmily

i shall
9:35pmPatricia

No, I will keep trying, you may try if you wish
9:36pmEmily

alright. Perhaps you should look in Canada. lots of people go there to hide out
9:37pmPatricia

....I do not understand the humor in that
9:37pmEmily

Sorry. It's a conscientious objector joke. A lot of young men ran to Canada to avoid the Draft
9:38pmPatricia

In 2009?
9:39pmEmily

No, long before then

During the Vietnam War. The Draft hasn't been implemented since then.

did you not learn about it in school?
9:43pmEmily

Sorry i didn't mean to offend you
9:43pmPatricia

No. By the time I went to school, that war was irreevant
9:43pmEmily

Ah. what did you learn about?
9:44pmPatricia

I an unable to remember most aspects of my schooling
9:44pmEmily

that's unfortunate

do you think the 13 were created t obe weapons?

*to be
9:45pmPatricia

They were
9:45pmEmily

For war?
9:45pmPatricia

Yes, people are always unwilling to hurt Children

9:46pmEmily

I see. Was the government preparing for a new war then?

9:46pmPatricia

Yes
9:46pmEmily


With whom?
9:46pmPatricia

It was to be World War three
Patricia


9:48pmEmily

Why did they want to start World War three?
Emily

Did they stand to gain something from it?
9:49pmPatricia

They did not, It started with Canada

Nobody would gain anything
9:50pmEmily

A war with canada?
9:51pmPatricia

Canada wanted to attack Russia who wanted to attack Germany who wanted to attack the USA. Countries everywhere were picking sides
9:51pmEmily

was the United states out to stop it?
9:52pmPatricia

Yes
9:53pmEmily

I see. So the 13 were created in order to stop the war? What if nuclear weapons were implemented

?
9:54pmPatricia

Yes, #5 had immunity to radiation, and could protect others as well.
9:54pmEmily

Ah, well that was well thought out then, it seems
9:55pmPatricia

Yes
9:55pmEmily

Were they created during the war or before it?
9:56pmPatricia

Before, while threats were still being made.
9:57pmEmily

so they planned to go to war?
9:57pmPatricia

It was a........precaution
9:57pmEmily

a precaution or premeditation?
9:58pmPatricia

Precaution, they were only to be used if a war actually erupted
9:58pmEmily

and were they simply going to be destroyed if there was no war? Or saved in case one started?
9:59pmPatricia

The original 4 were to be destroyed, but from 5 onwards were kept in stasis.
Emily

Were they better than the originals? and what about the other 4?
10:01pmPatricia

I am unsure what you mean by better
10:01pmEmily

less flawed or having more useful abilites
10:02pmPatricia

Oh, then no
10:02pmEmily

I see

and you said there were 13. If 4 were to be destroyed and 5 kept what about the other 4?
10:03pmPatricia

No, 1,2,3 and 4 were to be desroyed.

Everything else was to be kept
10:03pmEmily

ah

sorry. I misread.

 		Damn, Oh well,

Due to Copyrights, This game is Unable to continue. I am the PM, so if you have any questions, I am hoping this thread will be kept open a little bit longer for me to answer.

The Abraham Brunt Facebook and Twitter will stay on as ARG specific accounts.

Thanks for playing guys, it was great for a first time PM like me.

EDIT: Also, I would like to thank *NAME PROTECTED* for writing the 13 Stones universe in the first place. It seems he is a member in the ARG community, (And won't tell me what his username is) *waves*

We have decided that we might continue this once the characters and story have been elaborated on.

 		**Ok.... I suppose I'll be looking to find something else to play - again.**
Just for the sake of being complete with the info., and just in case this may re-start a bit later... I thought I'd post the replies I got from Patricia on FB.

Patricia Clemens October 18 at 7:21pm
Quote:

Thank you for your rapid response.
We are the group responsible for creating the one known to you as "Riley"
This was a request for you to cease all communications with #9 and to forget this ever happened. You and the others do not seem to understand. This is not a person, this is not even human. #9 is a government project and thus, government property.
Thank you.
-Patricia Clemens, Head of Project R.I.L.E.Y.

Zelda Perkins October 18 at 7:54pm
Quote:

Thank you for the brief explanation. Since your "government property" is contacting us, what can we do to help? Is the "Riley" a danger to us? How did he/she/it get our contact information? And why were we specifically chosen?
Please let me know what I can do. Also, if this is project #9, that would imply there are others. Are we likely to be contacted by them also?
-Thank you,
Zelda

Patricia Clemens October 18 at 8:00pm
Quote:

If you wish to help, tell us where #9 is hiding and forget she ever existed. It is listed as top secret and was to be destroyed as soon as testing had been completed.
You will not be contacted by the others, they are much to busy hunting down #9

Zelda Perkins October 18 at 8:24pm
Quote:

I don't yet know where your #9 is located. I'm not even totally sure she/it trusts me enough to tell me that. I'm assuming this #9 is aware that you and the others are trying to find her/it?
Is there maybe some bit of information you might share with me that I could reveal to her to gain her trust? Maybe something she would think is important, or secret?
But then again, if I am not to communicate with here... that means I won't be able to find out any information for you. So, I guess the next step is up to you.

Patricia Clemens October 18 at 8:31pm
Quote:

If you want more information, we are the group that created the clones of Helma Stanz. We were to create one clone and alter the DNA. If it worked, we were to create ten more as super soldiers. Unfortunately, the original clone became self-aware and escaped.

***THANK YOU to the pm, and also to the writer.... seemed like it was going to be a really great game! I was looking forward to the unfolding of the story.
It would be great if the copyright issue could be resolved.

 		The writer wishes to not do anything until the characters and universe have been expanded. Once he's done that, we might start talks to do this again.
