 		[TRAILHEAD] Rachel's Walk
Rachel's Walk

Just read up on what's been posted so far in the 'Is this email spam?' thread on this, and sounds interesting. I already added my email address, and have searched the page source with no clues that I can see (but keep in mind I'm sorta new to this and wasn't exactly sure what I was looking for ^^; ). Can anyone check whether the image on the front page is stegged?

ETA: If there is already a thread for this, feel free to throw fish at me and kindly point me in the right direction ^^ Thanks!!

 		Hmm, I know I've seen it before, but can't find a thread for it... Odd.

Edit: This was it. I guess it was never given a thread of its own?

"It looks awfully dark down there..."
Bink could sense the trembling in her voice. She was genuinely afraid.
"It's OK, Rachel. It's my home! Nothing to be worried about!"
"Looks cold, too. Is it cold?"
"Sometimes." He was never able to lie to her. "It gets really cozy in the winter, though."
"Don't like the cold. Maybe we should wait?"
Bink didn't like where this was going.
"They need you, Rachel."
"Why me?"
"I can't say."
"They need me right now? I don't think I'm ready for this!"
He couldn't deny the truth in that; it was obvious she was not ready.
"Not yet, my child, but soon."
"Then we'll wait 'til it's cozy. Cozy sounds nice... Can you tell me a story now?"
Bink looks down at his feet and laughs.
"Sure, Rachel. All the stories you want..."

 		I could have swore it had it's own thread, :shrugs:

Also, I don't think the image was stegged or camoflauged, but please feel free to check because I'm not the greatest at those things.

"Out future depends on an ignorant child and I shouldn't be worried?"
"She'll be fine. You just have to have a little faith."
"Maybe I'll feel better when I see progress. She hasn't even started yet."
"You have to see the path before you can walk it. She's not ready."
"What's it going to take?"
"Time."
"I'm not particularly patient, not for this. I hope you know what you're doing, Rena."
"I trust her. Now you trust me."

Sender was dreamguideSPLATrachelswalk.com. On visiting rachelswalk.com, it's an image of an open window with a hand holding a doll in a forest, no less, and the text reading "A world's fate rests in the mind of a child..." and "The walk of dreams will begin Winter 2008." A field to enter your email below. "Enter your email address and follow your dreams..."


This gives me a real "Alice in Wonderland"/"The Last Mimzy" feel.

I guess no one thought to start a thread that far in advance back then.

 		I signed up, but am quite new to these things.

I sort of followed the I Love Bee's game and found it to be a lot of fun. Hopefully this will follow suit.

Very Happy

EDIT: I vote Balderdash or however it's spelled!
