 		well, looking at it from a tINAG angle, I could get in serious trouble because I let other people know, and therefore put them in danger. There hasn't been an entry point foir the other players, though I bet one is coming up soon. It /is/ a rather odd way to start a game, but I think all of us are just waiting to hear from the Jester. I have a feeling that /he/ will be the one to give the other players a jumping off point.

Or I'm just looking too far into the tINAG aspect. But srously guies, don't get me in trouble with AB plz XD

 		More emails with AB:
OWP wrote:

Do you have any connection between the victims? Not just using some algorithm, but actual victimology. Connecting factors, physical connecting factors... Themes used in the killings, MOs? Just so I can know what I'm up against, maybe help out some. I am studying to be a forensic psychologist/victimologist, so you understand why this interests me. Wink Sorry if I'm being a pest, just comes with the territory of being... well, inquisitive.


AB wrote:
All in due time [OWP]. If you get to cozy with him, you'll find
yourself cozy with the victims. YOU"RE not up against anyone. He wants
your help.


And this from The Jester himself. XD Subject: "Someone needs a bit of help ^_^", from sweaterandsuitSPLATgmail.com

I hear you're good at these kind of things. Somebody I know is in a little pickle. Think you could help me out?

This man wants to hurt me, oh so much.

Just a little help. Pretty please?

So... yea.

 		"Gehfg zr naq bayl zr "

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ROT-13: Trust me and only me.


Also, a riddle: In water that sits, but is great size, that twists and turns, does our friend reveal his inner secrets

I can't help but think of Our Mutual Friend...XD I hope not. ><

Still working on this one.


Okay, so the email. The Jester... needs help from the "only friend"? "This man wants to hurt me oh so much", but then it says the whole "Someone I know is in a pickle" so... argh. Any ideas?

 		Well for SOME REASON, uF doesn't want me to edit. O__o

So, another postx2.

New Emails:

OWP wrote:
You need protection from "HisOnlyFriend"? Who is it that you know that's in trouble? Is he after both you and... whoever else you know that needs help?

A bit confused right now, but I catch on quick. Wink


The Jester wrote:
Misunderstanding. That little social page is mine =). It'll keep you informed.

The man you wants to hurt me is a meanie names "AB". He tricks people, thats not very nice.



So... uhhhhh. Non-threatening words and phrases used so far:
"^_^"
"pickle"
"meanie"
"prettie please"
"not very nice"

NTWAPUSF: 5 (I'm gonna keep a running total.)

Uhhh. We're def not dealing with DNC here, guys. >< I'm hoping that this guy will become a bit more creepy/unsettling. Right now he (I'm inclined to think she because of the "^_^". Eh, character development I hope. I want something more... not...silly. Or at least have him act silly while like, killing someone or something. (as overused as that is, "Look, if you wind it around your neck, it makes a scarf!", if anyone gets that reference -shudder-)


EDIT: New link.

http://abfiles.blogspot.com/2012/09/overview.html

*mumblemumblemumble*
Can anyone give a transcript?

 		I got a couple of new emails, but they contain pretty much the same stuff you got. The AB-guy sent the address to his blog: http://abfiles.blogspot.com

Here's my problem: I'm gonna be out of town until next week and wont be able to play, so any emails directed at me will disappear into a void of Nothing until then. Any suggestions as to how I let them know that?

 		Just let the Jester know. I don't think AB will really bother you... Esp since we seem to be getting the same emails.

Also, i have a feeling that the PM reads the trailhead, tends to be a common practice.

 		Well this is interesting, as usual we turn our back for 5 minutes and OWP is making friends with mass murders.

I kind of like that...make me think this might be some child like entity (which links to Jester)

, does our friend reveal his inner secrets


So a still body of water that moves. In theory a whirlpool or riptide could work as they tend to sit around.

That or a toilet as water turns in there yet is also sat in the system...but I don't know why I would tell me secrets in the toilet unless he sings to himself in the bath or something?

 		So I contacted AB and at first he/she tried to warn me off. I let him/her know that I'm a soldier and used to danger and he/she sent me the link to his blog.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The audio on the blog is pretty much what the intro e-mail said. "Jester's a killer, don't talk to him or you'll be in danger. Blah blah blah."


If you convert the video to mp3 and then speed it up in Audiology you'll be able to hear it all much better.

Tweeted him with the fjords link. Nothing yet. Hoping all you guys will get an entry point soon, and that maybe something will happen in general. :/
