(WOW I do so love having my computer crash constantly. Glad Firefox saves typing in open tabs.)

Okay I tweeted:

I chose the Green Lantern tag so friends will know what it is. Though most of them do ARGs too and probably won't think it's odd hah. If it can gain some momentum, then I think in-game is better... but the bottom line is that it's an advertising campaign so I'm not sure mention of the movie's name is a BAD idea Wink Might add as additional suggestion to use Newton Astronomer's Guild, since it's been linked to the viral already and is easy for OOG folks to Google. #newtonastronomersguild is too long so I'd say #newtonastronomer maybe?

Redstormloj Nicely done! Smile If you haven't sent it to Movie Viral yet, you might want to share it over there as well. Figure you should do the honors.

Just sent it! Thanks for telling me about them, I didn't even know such a site existed. I usually just find Viral ads myself or use this site so you've made the process much easier now for me. Very Happy

New post from The Wall. not sure if people would rather find it for themselves so I'll spoiler the gist of it

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

apparently she's trying to convince us that Rob is a manic-depressive drunkard who's off his meds

Was hoping to draw Robert or Brian into posting again at the forums by posting re: Twitter hashtag, but it hasn't worked (yet?). Was a bit worried it might have stepped on some toes to do it, but don't think it really took off anyway. Not enough active players.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Well, we certainly know he is or rather was a bad poet, but that hardly seems evidence he's manic! If we're in a paranoid mood, maybe the poetry got leaked just in case they need to disparage his character...? Man, better clean out my old dA account just in case the government's ever out to get me! Wink


Oof, feels like we've been in "now what" mode a lot on this one. Seems like they won't just drop it at this point, they've still got time before the opening...

Interestingly enough, I got an email from Dr. Waller saying she's seen my tweets. Apparently she's googling us up.

"He's also a goth who writes bad poetry (and I don't think there's any poetry quite as bad as bad Scots poetry) under the name of Lord Innominata."

Perhaps she posted the Flickr pics?

Anyway, perhaps I made a mistake in taunting her. After it was revealed that she knows Robert's actions I sent an email asking her why she lied. This was her response:

"You are playing a dangerous game Mr Castro. I have seen your tweets whipping up excitement about this travesty of a clip, which any competent analyst can tell is faked. Just where do your loyalties lie?

AW"

My response to that:

"My loyalties lie with the truth and the pursuit of truth. I will go about any means necessary to learn the truth, even if it means breaking a few walls.

-RC"

Yeah I think Waller posted the Flickr stuff as well. Just to add weight to her cover story about Robert.

FWIW, just for fun, I'm switching sides and supporting Dr. Waller. Just to see were that leads. Smile

It'll lead you to a big brick wall. Trust me, I've helped her enough and she lied to me as with anyone else.

A few days ago I was feeling mischievous and emailed Dr. Waller about Lord Innominata and the Flickr account. Finally got around to sharing.
Quote:
Be concerned about Mr. Frazier.
Your assistant Robert is a real freak, y'know. But I guess those are the kind of people you like to surround yourself with, right? You should ask dear Rob about Lord Innominata, and the Flickr account that he has set up for himself.
Robert should be committed into Belle Reve, not employed there. You should be concerned.

Quote:
It's a lovely idea that I wouldn't have extensive files on all my employees, but that's not the world I live in. Unfortunately instability and brilliance so often go together, and so often I have to overlook the eccentricities of my employees. You can rest assured that I have my staff regularly examined by the in-house psychiatrist, and it's very rare that someone has to go from staff to patient.
Thank you for your concern though,
AW

Going for the "hail mary play" since I have a feeling this thing is pretty much over.

I sent another email to Dr. Waller explaining to her that I know she is hiding the truth and I will stop at nothing to find it. I then told her that I know she sent her goons to get Frazer and that I know that eventually she will send them to any other thorns in her side. I then taunted her by giving her my address claiming I will make her job easier.

I then ended the email with yet another jab, telling her that when the day comes that the truth is revealed and she can no longer hide behind her desk, she will remember my name.

Lets see how this whole thing unfolds from here on out.

I was thinking this was over for good, too, since you guys have done a great job "poking the hornet's nest" and nothing seems to have happened.

But Newton Astronomers have updated their blog today. If it had been several days ago, I'd have figured it was just wrap-up, but it does make you wonder if we're still on? Nothing new from Robert or the Wall, or on the IG forums.

For my part, I sure hope they utilize the good amount of time they still have left...

I received a fairly confusing response from Dr. Waller that, to me, makes it more evident that this thing is over:

"Good to know Mr Castro, good to know.

AW"

Fresh, informative & witty. So, of course, am hoping this isn't quite over. Anyway, while we wait if y'all are interested in going to Mars: http://is.gd/JEfG6Y

Woot! I got a response from both!

From Dr. Waller:
"Mr Castro,

I do love you all like you are my children. Ask your own mother what that's like when your children think they know it all. Her name is Isabel, right? She'll probably tell you that "you're either with us or against us" is a luxury that only the young get to enjoy - the rest of us live in a world with many more shades of grey.

AW"

Clever (and a little creepy) but wrong. Abel is my father. But it begs the question, where is she getting this info? Is she only looking me up or is she doing this for everyone?

From Robert:
"Thanks for your messages Raul - I am still alive but safe internet access is very intermittent. I'm getting online whenever I can but it's patchy.

I'm not surprised to hear that she's sent people over to Newton as well. She presents as a sweet old lady who is on everyone's side, but if she feels threatened she has some pretty scary resources to lash out with.

My advice is don't draw attention to yourself too much - you don't want to end up like me, right?

I'll communicate through the forums when I can, but stay strong

Robert"

A very good sign this isn't over yet.
