Who from? AB or Jester? My first guess is an OOG email gone wrong...


i thought this at first but initially the email said:


Quote:
On second thought, I think I might want to use you for something.

Do you have acting experience?



i replyed that i did somewhat ( i was bluffing! lol)

he then replied:

Quote:

A B
Add to contacts
To angela mac
Have you listened to the "Assimilation video"


so i can only think that it wasnt a misplaced email since there were 2 of them..

well thats not confusing at all! lol i dont have access to his blog as its restricted so i cant see the video!? has anyone else seen it? or is he refering to the audio file?


So far the audios that I have been posting have been in the form of videos. The videos are simply a black screen with AB in white text.


i will go and have a listen to the audio files see what audacity pulls from them. Then see if i can hear whats being said.

I have to wonder if maybe this is now an oOG conversation...like the Pm wants to you be Jester's next victim or sometng. Or AB (you never said if the email was from AB or Jester) wants to do some acting to lure Jester into a trap. I say ask if it's oog or not. He'll either say yes, or "what do you mean by game?", ect. Which means it would be IG.

sent email asking what you said, guess we will soon find out! LOL

i agree with your theory, about being killed in game as a victim of the jester. Im sure there are many people who would love that! LOL maybe its a contract hit! Wink

he just messaged:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
its in game


i also got this email

Quote:
As you have read, the jester traps victims through intricate games he
puts on. When he does, I will attempt to infiltrate this story. It is
imperative that NOBODY else who knows about this case knows that you
are part of this. The Jester gains trust by trapping the curiosity of
his targets and people he wishes to work for him in these storys, but
if I were to throw a monkey wrench into the story. If we're lucky, he
may even mistake you for an ally and divulge info. His circle of
allies is large, so I'm douptfull you would get discovered.

I will soon send you a discription of the person you will pretend to
be, along with an email to use.



OOOOOOO XD

its all getting very exciting!!!!

OUT OF GAME WARNING
The Jester versus th3j35t3r

Okay guys, I just want to give you a wee bit of caution about this game

i skimmed to see if anyone was aware of this already or not..and didn't see anything so if I've missed a post and you are already aware please forgive

The name the Jester is associated with a REAL LIFE notorious hacker who is at war with Anonymous. His handle is: th3j35t3r on twitter. IT IS OUT OF GAME REPEAT OOG

when he first came out on the scene, it was right after Conspiracy for Good and I thought he was an ARG character for sure but he's not

so while you play this game: be careful you don't actually contact the real Jester...just...don't...

and be warned the REAL Jester is notoriously vain and doesn't like imposters (which I'm sure the pm's probably already are aware of)...and whether they know who they are really dealing with is anyone's guess

therefore...if you tweet about the Jester on twitter...be forewarned you might attract the wrong kind of attention so just use caution

scrolling though this seems very much an ARG and not the Jester playing with you guys (he's not a serial killer...and this isnt his style)

...i think it's fine to play just be discreet and don't wave any flags on twitter shouting: i'm having an irc with The Jester...but trust your gut

Okay, any cracks on the Wild Poinsetta thing?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
euphorbia heterophylla


I tried it as a tumblr url,

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
thejesterfiles.tumblr.com/euphorbiaheterophylla
thejesterfiles.tumblr.com/euphorbia-heterophylla


But Tumblr doesn't work that way, so that doesn't work... I guess I'll try tweeting him the name.

EDIT: Not the right name. The name Jester tweeted has 7 letters and then 4 letters. Christmas Star doesn't fit... Xmas Star doesn't either... I'll keep looking.

EDIT2: Random googling in boredom and frustration leads to a type of poinsettia known as the Common Jester, or Red Jester, but neither fit.

MHS, any updates on the email/acting thing?

If it isn't a typo, why do gods need doctors? Unless he's saying the god named Doctor will see you now.

I didn't see anyone mentioning this. I noticed that Jester is tweeting with someone called WindingLake aka Dustin Rothman. He has a blog which I think is IG (http://dustinrothman.tumblr.com/) and
