[Trailhead] Help us escape

Seems very argish:

I replied with an email. Let's wait and see.

Sent an email as well.

This looks to be connected with MTV's new show Savage County.

Here's the newspaper for the county: http://savagecountygazette.com/
Under the police blotter you can find an email for contacting the sheriff, as well as a phone number.

It is connected. I immediately got a response
Quote:

Everyone is in on it.

The Hardells. The Sheriff. The Savage County Gazette.

I don't know who to trust.

The one thing I DO know is that it's not safe for me or the other
survivors - if there are any - to stay in Savage County.

I need some time to figure out what my next step is. But when I do,
I'll get in touch with you at HelpUsEscape.com.

There will be a blog post titled "The Steps." The password is
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

SURVIVE

- all caps.

If you want to help us - and I hope that you will - I'll leave the
next set of instructions there.

I hope to post in the next 24 hours.

If I don't, hopefully it's because I haven't figured out what to do
yet and not because the Hardells have found me.

This is the only time you need to email me – I won't be using this
address any more.

I will be monitoring my Twitter account - http://twitter.com/izzieguz
but know that it may not be safe for me to respond to you.

Pray for us,
Isabel


The twitter is active since some time and links to http://savagecountygazette.com/students.php

EDIT: Seems like this is already running since some time. Not sure if it is possible to catch up.

slackmistress / Nina Bargiel has been promoting this as beginning after Savage County's premiere on MTV last night

So I think the mythos has been running for a while, but the arg itself just began.

I voted to get Savage County on MTV, and only realized last night the cable doesn't pick up MTV2 -- anybody know how this part launched?

Facebook and twitter accounts

there are a whole bunch of inter-related twitter and facebook accounts for the characters in this. Posts go back several months. Good amount of background material to go through.

There is so much to read. I will try to give a short recap from what I understand:
There are some students (Isabel Guzman, Colby Miller, Patrick Roundtree, Megan Wells, Noah Marshall, Caitlyn Murray, Dorothy Kramer, Angie Lee) living in Savage County.
Dorothy Kramer did not come to school on 8th of September. Her friends set up a website to search for her. An anonymous person send some voicemails stating that he knows where she is. First the Gazette was holding back some of the tips.
Dorothy had a "hidden" blog (http://hotandcoldandyesandno.blogspot.com).
She also was seen at the Gazette placing a personal ad. She had some relationship with someone named "B"
Dorothy's parents died in a car accident.
The Sheriff closes the Kramer case after a vote in the Internet.
A new message appears. Someone (Dorothy?) screaming. Also a (very fraky) video showed up. They handed it to the Sheriff, but he thinks it is fake.
On Dorothy's secret blog a new video appears showing D very happy. So it seems she is not missing and it seems she has a secret love affair with Bill Mason, the local businessman

What happened (Part II)

Than Isabel posts strange messages on Helpusescape.com.
Someone (Kaspar) is after her. Some of her friends are already dead?!
She think Noah has made it out and we should look for Noah.

So I asked him via Twitter (http://twitter.com/No_Marsh): Where are you?

This is his reply

Thank you... Very Happy

No, he just said that they would get back to me... If they are willing to trust me that is.

But Isabel wrote in her mail that se would get back to us within 24 hours, that was friday. Hope nothing has happend to her, but i dont think so because she accepted my friend request on facebook today.

So i guess we are just waiting to see what happens ???!

I called. After I hung up...I got a call back--

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
From Noah, w/a password to the next post, which was posted sometime today?


If you didn't get the callback, I'd call again. I can post the PW if someone needs it.

Just realized the peeps w/no callbacks are not in the US. Wonder if that's the issue? Will post the message/PW under a spoiler if you want.

"OK, you're cool. Check back with the blog in a little bit. The name of the post is "The Plan" and the password is AWAY, all one word. All caps."

The post is up there now.
