Ok... Adam called me JUST now...
He talked for quite a while, and did answer and ask questions.
He mainly wanted me to pass along to everyone that if this is frustrating for us, just imagine if this was YOUR LIFE... he's confused, tired, no money, and don't always remember things.
He says that other than calling me, he wants everyone to know that he HAS NOT called ANYONE.... (he really stressed that). He also said that to prove to everyone that it was really him, he made a new page at hallucinine by typing in
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
/trust
- he said my name would be on that page. He said if he calls anyone else, he will add them also so he can keep up with who he's spoken to.
He says he's very confused right now. And PLEASE be patient with him.
He has tolerated with this torment all of his life, and it can't be all for nothing... he HAS TO FIND A PURPOSE. He is also very afraid that his "sickness" may have already spread to some of us. Some of us are becoming consumed by these messages as he is. He is worried about us also.
Cassandra called him on an old cell phone that he sometimes uses, and is wanting him to come back. I THINK that I talked him out of it.
I told him to just give it some time because until the issues about these messages are solved, he is no better than before.. he has no money for a bus ticket right now, so he agreed.
He writes, and draws, and takes photos so he can be able to account for his time and things that happen.

I told him that his "messages" revealed to us that now is not the time to leave. He says he is aware that they use him to write out these messages, but he does not always know what the messages are.
I asked him if he ever got the sense that some of these "voices/beings?" were good and trying to help, but maybe some voices were trying to stop him from sharing his messages and truths... and he did say that he sometimes kinda does get that feeling.

----
I was going to record it, but he knew this before he called.... that's why he called the cell. His first question was to ask if I was recording, and I told him no, but that I could. He asked me not to, so I didn't.
He voice was normal... and he sounded very nice actually! No masking or altering, or background noises, voices, music or anything.


---whew! SUPER COOL.....


edit---
I also asked him if he was totally 100% sure that it was REALLY Cassandra that had called him to ask him to come back... and he said the connection was really bad, and he couldn't be completely sure.

So, I sent Uno/Adam/whoever an email and a Facebook message, and got a response to the Facebook message. Guess that's the way to get in touch these days.

My message was, ultimately, one of love. I told him that it hurt me to know he was hurting, and that I wanted to make sure he was okay. I told him I was sending feelings of love and positive energy in his direction whenever possible, and that I wished I could do more to help him.

I also tried a bit of semi-reverse psychology on him... I told him that I wouldn't try to stop him from going to California, but that I wanted him to really examine his gut reaction to the idea of going. I said that I understood why he wanted to, but he should only go if his heart truly told him that anything could be solved by going.

His response:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Thank you so much for your kindness. It is truly what I need right now. I need understanding, yet find very little of it... whether in my own mind, or from other people. I am as confused as everyone else is, perhaps more so. I have received some very angry and hurtful messages on here lately, but it is the norm for me. It is no different than the rest of my life has been.

With the number of people asking me to not leave, and with the reasons they are offering, I am considering that perhaps I should stick this out a bit longer. It's just so frustrating though. It is so frustrating to live this life and see no reasons, no answers, no light at the end of the tunnel.

Your Friend,
Uno


So guys, I know I'm not super involved with this as far as posting and finding new things (stupid new job taking up all my time...), but I'm still lurking, and I hope you'll take a word of advice from me. I know I'm fairly new to ARGs, but don't forget the major philosophy: This Is Not A Game.

When you are talking to Uno or Adam, it is not a game. You are talking to a real person with real issues and real confusion. If you were in his position, what would you want to hear? I know we all want to solve puzzles and such, but remember, it is NOT a game. Interact as if it is real. Like he said on one of his pages (can't find it right now, so I'm paraphrasing), you often find the most information when you aren't looking. I think he said something like that, hahah.

Hope this didn't come across as rude. I'm super tired. I look forward to making the occasional update when I interact with Uno/Adam, but mostly I'll be lurking and wishing I could do more. Thanks folks! Keep up the excellent work!

"forgive us please"

Between Uno Hallucinine and You September 1c at 1:4aam

i am sorry uno... all we want is to help you... you asked us to listen and then went away... we thought you were angry at us; that we had misheard you, so we went and found whatever we could to help and understand and we were wrong... we were very very wrong... please let us continue to help you...

Uno Hallucinine September 1c at c:adpm

I didn't go away on purpose. I am seeking your help. I need it to find my purpose and justify my life. Why would I go away? That would doom me to the failure that has consumed me all my life. When I go away, I don't realize it. I lose track of time... hours, days, sometimes weeks. I wake up and don't know how I got to where I am. My whole life is made of holes.
Uno

Me September 1c at 11:4cpm

dearest adam, what you are doing is extremely noble... it was foolish of us to demand you understand everything all at once, when ever we cannot understand these clues... to shriek blame for mistakes we made; to scream at you with flooded tweets and comments... i cannot speak for others, but i promise you i will be patient...

it's not fair that you were picked to save us all... from what, we don't know... but none-the-less, this situation of yours is very unjust... a responsibility this great should not fall on one man... please let me know if there is anything i can do to help shoulder the burden; i will do my best to help you find peace, even if it's just a shoulder to lean on or an ear to listen...

I got a message from Adam. Actually, I think it was from Uno; unlike the call that Zelda received, the message that I got is extremely difficult to understand (it's quite quiet and there is crackling throughout). Also, he hasn't updated trust.htm to reflect the message left to me. However, he does refer to himself as "Adam Omega" in the message.

Unfortunately, I do have to consider the possibility that it's OOG. My Facebook was set to allow friends of friends to view my contact info; anybody who was on Uno's friendlist would be able to get my number to fuck with me. This has (of course) been changed, so that any calls I get in the future will be from the PM himself (or from the first person who called me; but I hope to know shortly whether that person is IG or not). My phone was off at the time, so my caller ID won't tell me who called (in fact it doesn't even record that I missed a call); however, my voice mail tells me that it was received yesterday (17th) at 1:35 AM from a blocked number. That does seem like Adam/Uno.

I've sent Adam a message on Facebook asking him to see if he may have made any calls while he's been losing time. Best case scenario is that he finds my number on his outgoing call history and I have verification that Uno called me. The problem is, Adam/Uno seem to use payphones, so even if he tells me he didn't find it, it could still be IG. I implied to him IG that it may have been somebody outside of him who got his number from Facebook and is trying to throw us off track. Hopefully the PM will see that and be able to give me a definitive answer.

In the mean time, I'm going to record the message to see if anybody can make heads or tails of it. Until I manage that, here's an approximate transcript. It's very difficult to decipher. Anything I've placed in brackets I'm unsure of.
Quote:
"This is Adam Omega. Any phone calls [from] anybody is [going to be risky] for me [for] [a while[???]]. [I've been forced[???]]. I'd be happy to prove such, [by point of fact], but... [?]."
The "I've been forced" part is really just my best guess. It's almost impossible to hear over the crackling. That's the approximate syllabic length though, and it does seem that the last word is "forced" or "false".

Immediately preceding that ("for a while"), is even more of a guess. It sounds like the first word is "for", but after that I'm just filling in blanks; the message sounds like it has more "f"s in it. Again, I believe that's the number of syllables he's using. It could be "to pull off"

The last part is just too garbled to make sense of. At different times, I've thought it was "this is too hilarious", ".... Aquarius", "... Polaris", "history...", "that would be precarious", and "... care for us" . If I'm just putting words together from what I hear (making no sense), I'd say he said "history Aquarius". It fits the syllables and sounds. There's the side skeptical of me which hears "this is too hilarious" every time. It really is the best fit, to my ears. But, if I look at it objectively, that mocking tone doesn't fit with the rest of the message.

Does anybody know if there's any way to directly send a message from your voice mail to your computer? I'd like to be able to listen to it on headphones, and if I post it up here for you all to listen to/play around with (maybe somebody would be able to reduce the distortion I'm hearing), it would be best to do it without the step of re-recording it.

Photo posted and identified:

Ok, so Uno has posted a new photo on Facebook and dated it Sept 18, 09. First glance you would assume this must be 1909 (can't be 1809 or 2009). But I have identified the photo has having been taken May 1863 during the Civil War. I search the civil war because I noticed the solider seemed to have a confederate uniform on.

"Confederate dead behind the stone wall of Marye's Heights, Fredericksburg, Virginia, killed during the Battle of Chancellorsville, May 1863"

Like many of his pictures - he darkened and reversed the photo. And of course - added the red "9".

Here is the Wikipedia page about the Battle of Chancellorsville, where the photo came from and that Uno seems to be describing from his childhood at age 5. He specifically mentions General Lee which was the confederate side, and the photo is of dead confederate soldiers. I think he was present at this battle as a child, and by studying it we may find out more about Uno.

So he's 5... being shot at.. and apparently broke something.. I'm inclined to say a mirror..

On speculation, if we're talking DID, most people with DID have a history of extreme violence at the time their personality shattered as an escape of the situation.

Between the shattered mirror image... The brother's bleeding..

and the recent post..

I'm inclined to think.. whatever broke may have injured a sibling... possibly killed them.. which is why there was so much blame?

Awesome! Kind of freaky, too, but very awesome. Now that I know it's IG, I'll try to get it uploaded ASAP... somehow. Does anybody here have a carrier which allows them to receive voicemail messages via email? If so, I could forward it to your voicemail and you could post it here. I just know that any way I record it will cause the file to lose integrity. It's hard enough to understand as is, let alone if it becomes any lower quality. I've sent Adam a message asking if I can forward him the message so that he might be able to identify which voice sent it (or what exactly it says Razz) but it seems kind of unlikely that he'd give me more information about it, since it was so cryptic in the first place.

Mlitsonata, you said you're not sure if it's DID. But, you have to keep in mind that the page which listed eccentricity symptoms also listed DID symptoms in the source code. Not only does it fit with his personality, Adam alluded to having it. I think he's confirming that he's been diagnosed at some point. Now, there's a good chance that he doesn't actually have this disorder, but simply shows signs of it due to some paranormal circumstances which a psychiatrist would be unable to identify. Regardless, I think it's important that we don't dismiss those symptoms.
