 		Another email. This time from Joseph McPherson (jmcphersonSPLATinterminelaboratories.co.cc).

Quote:
Hi, I'm Joseph. I know that William has been contacting you recently, with talk of escape and such. I want in, but my morals and William's morals are two completely different things. I would like to shed some light on the current situation, as much as I possibly can.

Cryogenic Testing...I guess that's where it all starts...heh...They did a lot of terrifying things to us back then...but I have reason to believe that Cecil's Project Jerusalem and Graham's Project Jerusalem are the same things. [INFORMATION REDACTED]

I know you can [TRANSMISSION ENDED]

 		And another, this time from Control.

Quote:
Would you like to speak with me? I might be able to clear the line in the sand. Chuvali li ste na Skype? Me əlavə et.


It came with an attachment called LISTEN TO ME.mp3, which was just a computerized voice reading the text of the e-mail.

I'm not sure what to think of that last line, except for Skype. Obviously we need to get in touch with Control over Skype somehow. I have no idea what language those last phrases are in, but I'm pretty sure they're not a cipher.

Oli - great find on the Alamo. Perhaps our metaphorical line this time is the border between worlds. But why would one be able to cross over into another and not return? (Hint: 'cause Intermine is bringin' on the Darkness!) Er. Well. Maybe.

Im thinking whoever wrote "Chuvali li ste na Skype? Me əlavə et." has really broken french and or its a scrambled word with translation required once the word has been found

Another from William I'm going to keep trucking this line along with the newest from Cecil.

Quote:
draw a line in the sand
Fig. to create or declare an artificial boundary and imply that crossing it will cause trouble. Todd drew a line in the sand by giving his roommate an ultimatum about his sloppiness—he had to start cleaning up after himself or move out.
This was cecils.
Interesting I asked him some more questions. I can't seem to find any kind of coherent translation on those last lines from control.

Quote:
The Line in the Sand is supposed to be for choosing sides. My ideals...versus William's ideals...he...stole...my daughter...he must pay...
More from Cecil, looks like I'm going to sympathize with him here. Maybe take my double agent role again.

So...William did end up back in cryo? Heh. I kinda don't feel sorry for his smug butt.

So what's this about Cecil's daughter now? The cast list for "I Am the Darkness" doesn't list any other Masterses but Cecil and a Bradley...which could simply mean she won't appear in the drama (for potentially dark reasons).

Also a bit of META: the voice actor for William also did/is doing some of the music. Since it seems like music is really the only thing they're putting out with any sort of frequency, I'm guessing he's one of the core team members, which could also mean that William is our new leading man.

I'm out. I was referring to the Cryogenic sleep...

That was William later that day I haven't gotten contact since Wednesday.

Quote:
All I can tell you is that William is dangerous. Watch out for him. He's lost his way...
That was from talking to Joseph.

Right now it seems William is out and possibly dangerous, Cecil has a daughter who was taken(I knew he had one when Maria was in control in phase 1 since she had said it herself.) I'm more intent on helping Cecil now though.

 		Perhaps I am, it depends on my sympathies.
Anyone got any more e-mails I haven't.

 		I haven't really been in communication with anyone, so nope. I'm hoping this isn't the sort of game that's only moved forward with conversation. As much as I love interacting with characters, I'd rather have new sites to discover that move the story along.

 		I was also added by the Intermine Interface/Mainframe. Haven't seen it online yet, but I don't really leave Skype running. I'll try to keep a closer eye on it.

 		Sorry
Sorry for ending it so abruptly guys, a LOT of stuff came up and I really had no time to continue. HOWEVER, I am posting this to alert all who played and enjoyed phase 01 for the most part, this is the Website for Intermine Studios that you can view the episodes as they release. The first episode is intended to release on Saturday, January 7th, 2012, so keep an eye out for it! Very Happy

 		I'd been away from uF so long that this post eluded me. Good to see things are starting to pick up again.

For starters, the Intermine Labs FB page has seen a slight spike in activity. A new website has been posted (and you can hear a new song there): http://darkness.interminestudios.com/. If this had originally been posted on FB, it's gone now. There's also an unlisted Youtube video linked on the FB page. You can see it here. Supposedly Mr. Graham rose from the dead to hax Intermine's Facebook page and post that.

Perhaps even more interestingly, I got an e-mail from Mr. Graham's recently arisen corpse after I liked his post.

Michael Graham wrote:

The binary was all in the subject line, and translates to:

I replied back, in binary, asking if I was speaking to a ghost. His response was also in binary, and I've translated here:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
What you believe to have happened never happened in reality. Allow us to be reborn, and turn back the clock four months, to when it all began.


There was also a link hidden in white text: http://interminestudios.forumotion.com/t1-strange-posts#1

I haven't had a crack at the garbled text in the first e-mail, and that last link has a hidden message that I can't quite see yet.

Oh, and if you hadn't noticed already, the Intermine Labs homepage has a new countdown! So until then, we're left to ponder if any of the happenings in phase 01 actually...happened.

 		I talked to Control Panel on Skype. The converation went as such...

[11:13:16 PM] Control Panel: I see you're online. Hello. I am Control.
[11:13:28 PM] Sloane Koogle: Hello.
[11:13:50 PM] Control Panel: The Games have begun. You should return to the place where it all began if you wish to continue playing.
[11:14:11 PM] Sloane Koogle: -nods- Okay.
[11:14:48 PM] Sloane Koogle: Where did it begin?
[11:15:10 PM | Edited 11:15:21 PM] Control Panel: I am not authorized to reveal that information, all I can say is two letters. U F.
[11:16:23 PM] Sloane Koogle: Now I understand.
[11:16:59 PM | Edited 11:17:11 PM] Control Panel: http://forums.interminestudios.com/ may be of assistance to you as well. Mr Graham vivit.
[11:17:20 PM] Sloane Koogle: I'm sure he is.
[11:17:49 PM] Sloane Koogle: Are you allowed to reveal anything else?
[11:18:42 PM] Control Panel: >>CONTROL PANEL PERMISSIONS:

>>No, I'm quite sorry.
[11:19:03 PM] Control Panel: >>Return to your comrades, and you will learn.
[11:19:14 PM] Sloane Koogle: Yes, Control.
[11:19:15 PM] Sloane Koogle: Thank you.
[11:19:30 PM] Control Panel: >>The future is yours.
[11:19:42 PM] *** Control Panel sent Youarethefuture.wav ***
[11:20:11 PM] Control Panel: >>This audial file was left on my hard drive. Maybe it is of some use to you. Good luck.
[11:20:17 PM] Sloane Koogle: Thank you again.

I assumed Unforum from UF, and the "Mr. Graham is vivit" was originally "Mr. Graham is alive."
