 		That's a beaut anagram, Booba. Been checking out Argon 39 due to Bob's 16-17wav file likely saying "Argon is pure and once trapped" but it would sure help to know if we were looking for Kelvin, Celsius or Fahrenheit. Or is it lat/longitude degrees?.

Have you got anything yet for Wallace, he just rang me from the road.

He sounds knackered out, if Style succeeds what happens then. Will the future that Bob recorded actually happen...I'm so scared now, I can barely think straight. That youtube music video Bob gave the one called: Time will Remember Us What if there is noone to remember us, how does Time remember then?

Please help us, anything at all something to give Wallace a fighting chance against Style


So, this just came making it obvious now it's NOT Argon. Scrap years of scientific observation & methodology. Sad More Louise:

Looks like Bob is dead then, well that's what happens to pawns I suppose.

Perhaps you should of urged Wallace to contact Bob before it all got so desparate, typical really always leaving stuff until the last moment.Figured out his last little puzzle yet? Lets see the Fenton clue is obvious, but next one that is a little more difficult. Darkness, no memory and 39th - Wonder what God's instruction is for this one, I'd think jewish if I were you.

Have you noticed how often a single number keeps repeating...bet that is God's subtle embedding into this particular journey. Even Bob said it before he died. Numbers have power like names. Your destiny awaits...

Louise wrote:
The degrees will be how out of phase it is, it is all about sound waves I think. You can transmit sound waves offset, not sure I understand it really. Nothing to do with temperature though.God I hope that makes some sort of sense.

So, we're looking for an offset varience. Only know that "Malachi" is the 39th book of the Old Testament, writen at 400 B.C. Am inexpert here but his book speaks to the issue of tithing (10percent). G'Nite All.

 		Would the "Fenton Silencer" be 180 degrees out of phase?

Darkness, no memory and 39th -Torah
Google searches to:

http://www.innerpedia.org/index.php?title=333

Quote:
333 is the value of "the darkness"... As its first appearance, this word is the 39th word of the Torah, alluding to the 39 lights of dew that represents the essentail highest light of the Torah (which therefore seems like darkness). The 39 lights of dew are the revelation of the Torah with which God will resurrect the dead. This word also rectifies loss of memory, specifically the inability to recall God always


333 again ?

This in from Louise.

Any new data?

Wallace just rang he is going to climb the mountain in a couple of hours
or less.

I need to tell him something.

L.


Was hoping for more input, but it seems time is pressing, so I sent off the above info that everyone had gathered up, in hopes that some of it is correct.
333 kHz
180 degrees
and the anagram (still iffy on the anagram, but don't see anything else ATM)

 		Nice one guys, I was going to suggest 180 degrees, Just got in from work and I'm exhausted.

333 seems right for the frequency. Hope we're not too late, I really needed to head to bed at about 10PM last night though otherwise I'd never be able to get up the trees.

 		Nice job, Booba. Obviously, I should nevah be allowed on a geo-catching team. Update at Wallace! And some answers:

Leamus wrote:
Well it would appear that Wallace has survived the end of the world quite surprising really considering what he went through.

As I have already said when the gateway is forced open it releases a massive amount of energy, the first time the energy release changed your world. It removed some of the magic and left the world somewhat dull by comparison. The gateway was never fully closed and has been polluting your land ever since with what can best be described as evil. The three times it was opened after that caused more changes, the 1929 Wall Street Crash was one of these effects.

Samael failed each time because he was never truly ready.

Carnage thank you for being so predictable, I sent that email from Samael's email account on purpose. I said don't reply and of course humans being what they are always do things they are told not to do. I wanted Samael to move well before he was ready, if it weren't for your email then the chances are your world would be ending quite soon.

The gateway doesn't just lead to Tartarus it also gives you access to the past and potential futures. While the gateway was still open, I went back into the past and changed a few things. When the temporal wave arrives from the past in about ten minutes Samael and myself will cease to exist. Samael would only try again and I'm not interested in living another two thousand years with no body.

One last thing before I go, Wallace's mistake with the transmitter not only saved your world it has also changed it again with the huge energy release. This change is at the quantum level. I do not know what effects this will cause, Denton's future may still occur. Oh and the energy also went into the past, who knows what damage it will do there.

Good news however the gateway is now fully closed and it would take divine intervention to reopen it.

It has been pleasure pushing you around the board but now my time is over. Good luck, you are going to need it.

Leamas Alter - No More.

 		Who the Christ is Carnage?

ALSO: the barcode GIF has gone from the website. I guess that's Samael / Leamas removing himself from existence...

 		And there's me thinking we were all working together.

Just got this from Louise:

Wolfy,

Thanks for your all help, I'm picking up Wallace tomorrow. When I spoke
to him on the phone he sounded terrible. As he said in his post, he going
to make a final post probably tomorrow evening to tie up loose ends.

Then I think we both deserve a holiday.

He wanted me to get the post up ASAP just in case the government stepped
in and tried to cover the whole thing up. People need to know what
happened and that Bob didn't die in vain, I can't believe he was only 18,
so young.

Bob saved us all really.

Goodnight.

L.


Poor old Bob. I've had great fun on this one, some real mind-melters.

 		 It is the end...
What did you think?
Okay Wallace has done his last blog regarding this case. It is the end.

The entire ARG was created, written and run by me, the only original material not created by me were Wallace's paintings those were painted by my Dad. Wallace's books are mine, thought I give you a look into the PM's mind as it were.

I figured the picture of the tree on the last puzzle would be good as a signature.

All comments, suggestions and questions welcome either by private message or on the thread.

For those of you who are interesting in purchasing a souvenir of the ARG please go to my Spreadshirt shop: http://599044.spreadshirt.co.uk/

or you access the designs directly: http://www.spreadshirt.co.uk/

Click on 'Create your own', 'Choose Design' and do a search for 'Missing Wallace'

I created these designs for myself really being something of a T-Shirt freak but it makes sense to share as well.

 		See above ^^

Had a really good time playing, despite hopping on a little late. Questions I have are plentiful:

    How many players were working with Samael and Lewis?
    What the Christ was the solution to Leamas' 7 stage puzzle designed to help us with Wallace's puzzle - I think I got "Nor" for the 0,0=1, 1,0=0, 0,1=0 one
    How long did the planning of the ARG take?
    How bad does Star Trek: TMP suck?
    How much influence over the story did we as players have?
    Who is G. J. Jones?
    Are you actually UK Based? Some of the updates were a bit late in the evening for me to keep on the ball.


But take a gold star from me - I have 5 reams of paper covered in scribbled notes which always looks good decorating my house. Glory to grassroots ARGs - and keep my email addy for the next one you run Wink


Oh and I'd totally buy a Missing Wallace mug if it wasn't 13 quid.

 		Thank you very much, Seadevil4, for creating such a unique, in-depth scenario and a masterpiece character, Wallace P.I.

In retrospect, I'm seeing the amount of preparation this ARG required and am truly impressed. I've also got some follow up questions in terms of plot points and discovery opportunities we, the players, or yourself may have more fully explored but will wait to see Thunderwolf's answers. The Samael graphics are beaut as was his FB page.

Also, Wallace and his world was so darn witty that even in the tense times I was sometimes smiling. Am hoping tabloid Chelsea (my fict. alter ego) really annoyed Lewis and made you laff a little, too. Thanks again!

 		Answers to Questions
How many players were working with Samael and Lewis?

Only one, probably a lurker I didn't see him posting on the thread

What the Christ was the solution to Leamas' 7 stage puzzle?

Prime<Zeret = Prime number less than a Zeret (Zarot) 24-28.8 (Talmudic units) = 17
EH 259 PU = Location of Roslin Chapel = Chapel
path for many,= Street

4.52g silver = Gros
Venus Envy (CB) = Wikipedia this Comic Book also called: VE = ve
0,0 = 1, 0,1 = 0, 1,1 = 0 (Boolean) = Nor
6 points in space = Place

What you get is: 17 Chapel Street, Grosvenor Place - William Archibald Spooner was born there.

How long did the planning of the ARG take?

Well the initial story I wrote as a screenplay back in 2008 for friends which never got filmed. Spent maybe 3 weeks writing the base blogs, 15 puzzles by Bob. Wallace's puzzle and the additional Star Treks puzzles at the end I wrote during the game. In all it probably took me about 4 weeks. It was hard writing it and great fun running it. I can post the original story if you like?

How bad does Star Trek: TMP suck?

Come on, they nicked the story from the Original Series episode. I found it really slow to watch.

How much influence over the story did we as players have?

Well you could of had a fair bit, but you chose to jumped through my most of my hoops. I was really worried about the pacing of the story with the Bob's puzzles but it worked out quite well. Carnage Black replied to Leamas's email on cue. As Leamas said if you had convinced Wallace to go find Bob sooner he might have lived and also I would of had to do some rewriting Wink I did have a few endings planned, just in case you didn't get 333 and 180 to Louise in time.

Who is G. J. Jones?

He is an old pseudonym of mine, thought he might be a useful place marker especially for the two forums I posted on for Boudicca and Arthur. Was going to post a complete hoax on the Fortean Times forums but I changed my mind at the last minute.

Are you actually UK Based? Some of the updates were a bit late in the evening for me to keep on the ball.

Ok I live in Kent, UK have to work for a living like the rest of us. Most of my posts were early morning or in the evening. The website however is not based in UK which really messed up the Bloxsom posts but as they say it was the right price at the time.

I always thought I gave Bob more depth than Wallace. The Carnival of Rust song covered Bob's character perfectly such an excellent music video.

Samael's face was one of the few pieces of art I rescued from my secondary school had a long time now. I loved creating his facebook page did you see his projects: Tempting Eve...

Chelsea was amazing you managed to annoy Lewis especially when you just shrugged off his evil monologues against you. He had nowhere to go. Lewis's character was fun to play, nice guy with cats slowly turns into evil dude Wink

I tried to keep a little humor in it all, Louise hitting Lewis in the face was a last minute inspiration.

I do intend to write a sequel, have a base story (well written 15 lines so far). Need a break first though. Give me a couple of months.
