 		Well, that's counter productive 4 us, Telos. Compared this one pixel by pixel to the original. Maybe you will take a looksee?

One question before I retire - it is late here after all...
7:21pmJane
Yes.
7:21pmJean Pierre
and I am nting an answer straigh away - just post answer [and quesiton if you'd be kind enough to] on my wall...
7:22pmJane
alright, then....
7:22pmJean Pierre
how do you get a daughter to forgive you? for following orders by a higher officer who turns out to be the 'target's brother....
good night - read the writing on the wlal closely - I don't think Amandel has noticed the reversal of words....
o if she has, has not comented at lest not to me...


A variety of reasons led me to post that comment on his profile, including the idea that the cross and JPWs profile pic make me think about Jesus. A role reversal? The father sacrificing for the child?

 		@Crescent: in the original (found online) the words are reversed ("father forgive") which I dufos overlooked Embarassed tho" am still unconvinced that JPW is indeed Vanessa's father. Really did pull the pic apart and found nothing but plse give it a go. HTH.

[SPEC] Reckon he put the pic up so the reversed words WOULD be found, I or one of y'all would inquire & he could press his case further. Being time-zone challenged I went online for the original, did an EXIF properties check on both & went to bed. Laughing

 		I got home from work a bit ago and was going to message V, but noticed she had posted on her wall

 		Yikes! Claire's FB has been totally gutted. Also JPW and Vladimir have both updated their FB statuses.

 		I sent a message to V last night, apologizing for not being around much. I tried to urge her not to go, but she's a stubborn one, I guess. Got a message back:

 		Another brief exchange,

Quote:
Jean Pierre
She is on her way now. All I could tell you is that she is travelling....
3:41pmJane
The others couldn't stop her, apparently.
3:45pmJean Pierre
Which, while I can understand, I am not surprised with.
She has her mother's temperament.
3:46pmJane
So, what's next?
3:47pmJean Pierre
We meet. All 3 of us. In some odd way it wil be a bit like the old days, sans Alan...
3:48pmJane
and what is your feeling about this? nervous? joyous?
you are a hard one to read sometimes.
3:48pmJean Pierre
Jealous? What do I have to b jealous of?
3:49pmJane
not jealous, joyous.


EDIT: Oh, he keeps talking.

Quote:
Jean Pierre
Oh. Yes. Sorry...
I want to be glad that eventually the family will be together again but I feel bad that I have to do it this way.
Claire IS safe though. Please be assured of that. I could never heard an innocent.
4:02pmJane
Perhaps the others would be more cooperative if you assured them of Claire's safety... by releasing her.
It's the surest way.
4:03pmJean Pierre
With no offence, why would I care what they think? Vanessa no longer listens to them, this way she definitely comes. Why else would she come - to meet her "dad" who she "believes kille her mum"?
4:05pmJane
At some point, Vanessa will have to make choices, and she can be influenced even if she seems.. obstinate.
4:05pmJean Pierre
So can I.
4:06pmJean Pierre
No, this is the only way. Unless you can convince her to come without Claire being a 'reward' for her... She will hear you on the coach. You have 16 hours - all of you. If she agrees to come here of our own will, I'll release Claire. Deal?
4:08pmJane
I'll see what I can do.
4:09pmJean Pierre
The time starts - now.
4:09pmJane
But... I am just one. There is strength in numbers.
4:10pmJean Pierre
[OOG - due to time lag and time zones, this will be made this 24 hours and slow down 'real time' for game - both for players and the 'characters']


Looks like we have a task....

 		Hmm. Well, I guess we're supposed to go along with this.

I've sent V this private message on FB:

Quote:
Hi, Vanessa.

I know you are primarily going to see Jean to help Claire--because you feel that when you show up, Claire will be released.

What worries me (and some of your other friends) is that we've had no word from Claire herself whatsoever since Jean supposedly abducted her...either good or bad. For all we know, she took off on some secret vacation or has been staying with family sick with the flu and he has been pretending to have her all this time. What sense does it make to walk into what is probably a trap if the bait isn't even there?

Here's my thinking right now. Jean has said to to us, "If she agrees to come here of our own will, I'll release Claire." If we can tell him that you will indeed come to him, and he does indeed release Claire, then we can make sure she's OK/etc. If Claire fails to materialize, then you'll know not to show up at his doorstep, either.

The risk is that to stay honourable/keep your word, if Jean does release Claire, you'd have to follow through and go see Jean even though Claire isn't there anymore. However, Vladimir is also on his way there. I know you have been avoiding listening to Vladimir recently, but several of us have come to trust him. If you and him could meet ahead of time, then go to Jean together, I think together you'd have a good chance of protecting yourself from Jean. Vladimir could be your second, so to speak.

There is only one man who can fully know what happened in Oregon. If you get Vladimir and Jean face to face, the truth is bound to come out. Perhaps we need to keep an open mind about who the bad guy is here.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star...how I wish you had some guiding lights to help you find your way right now.

*hugs* This can't be easy for you; I'll be thinking of you. Let me know if I can help you in any way...

--RB

Sensible plan, dreamer, especially if you or someone else can verify and/or coordinate that JPW keeps his word.
OT-Am having an almost wifi-less ski wknd so will be **crossing fingers**

 		See 2nd edit for update re V meeting JPW

Quote:

HOW WAS YOUR BIRTHDAY?
music is the
73939133


I just noticed now, when going over some messages from the game in my Facebook inbox, that 357686312646216567629137 was also mentioned in Vanessa's binary note. 357686312646216567629137 is the largest left-truncatable prime, while the number on the key Johan gave her, 73939133, is the largest right-truncatable prime (source: http://brainwagon.org/2007/03/20/357686312646216567629137-is-a-prime-number/). In fact, that binary note started with the first of these and ended with the second...left to right.

When she says "music is the 73939133", she likely means "music is the key" (since that's the number that was on the key Johan gave her).

Edit to add another thought:

This seems to be JPW admitting that he killed Annabell...but only under the orders of Johan (his senior officer and Annabell's brother). What, then, of the references he's made to Johan poisoning Annabell's well/drink?

Edit 2: Just had a convo with Vanessa, since I noticed she was online:

Quote:
2:06pm Rêveuse
I hope you are having a good coach ride
the wheels on the bus go spin, spin, spin...
I hope you were able to read the message I sent you earlier & think about it a little bit.
I think you should be careful, but it might be helpful for you to see Jean to get some answers.
anyway, I know you said it would be difficult to send right now...just keeping you company

Unfortunately, I'm going to be having company over when the meeting takes place. If any of you will be free around that time (a little under 4 hours from now, I think), you might want to see if Claire does indeed get released, and to warn V if not. I've sent JPW a short message basically telling him V is coming (I didn't mention Vlad, though I think JPW was the one to invite him) and that I expect him to release Claire now.

 		Something not too good appears to be going down.... Vanessa and Vlad both arrived, made posts, and seem to have vanished shortly after JPW "sensed" them.

Yup, just noticed V and Vlad's Facebooks are gone. And Claire's is still gone, as well. Anyone information on JPW's end? I never got around to friending him...
