do we all have to make up a killer, if we all do one seems like there will be too many killers Confused


I think... gah. It seems we're invited to join a group of serial killers who meet online to discuss their latest crimes. Only one is a copy cat, and apparently I have been assigned that killer. I'm not sure if the other personas has to be existing killers, but judging from the emails, the personas will be scrutinized once in the chat room.

Here's my latest email with instructions:

Quote:
Rules:
1. If asked, (and you will be asked), you were referred to the SKA by 'The Counter'
2. You will have been active for no more than a year, no less than two months to be given invitation to the SKA.
3. Copycats are not allowed- the only exception being MrM0nst3r, as the founder, and myself, as I have recreated each scene down to the proper brand of drill.
4. You will have no less than three (3) scenes/actors to be considered 'serial' (we do not use the word victim as it is incriminating)
5. You will never show your face, nor give any personal information. Disguises are not foolproof, and are not allowed either.
6. It is your own responsibility to cover your tracks when in the Room, the others are not responsible for what happens to you if there is a raid or mole.
7. You will alert The Counter each time you enter a 'cooling off' period, and will not appear in the chat until you have created your next scene.
8. Asking information on how your case is faring is allowed, but that should be your own responsibility to provide the others with updates on your status as a scene-creator.
9. The name you use must be either one the media has appointed you, or one you have given yourself and that the caseworkers are using (for example, the Zodiac Letters)
10. The Counter is the only one allowed to ask for a general location. This is for the sake of drops, restocking supplies. In return, The Counter will share his pinpoint location with you. If you so desire, your drop may be made outside of your comfort zone, to avoid suspicion.
11. During your first appearance in the chat, proof will be asked of you. This may be a photo tool you are known for using, a photo of your scene or actor, or other proof that does not provide your location.

The date is still being decided on, possibly next week.

This is all very unsettling, but there has to be information during that next chat meeting. So I think I will attend. (Although I'd really appreciate if some of you guys would come too, so I'm not all alone with a bunch of psycho mass murderers Smile)


Any suggestions as to what SKA is short for?

Just started following this, and perhaps it's too silly, but Serial Killers Anonymous? Seems to fit.

 		Shocked This is getting freaky. Just an idea would it not make sense for those of us who want to join you on chat to characterise a bit here just so that when we go in we know our background story's? Just a thought.

Sorry to distract. You need serial killer identity worked out for the chat?

They'll be there.
As far as I can figure, it'll be 7:30 tomorrow morning my time and 6:30 in scotland.

Please show up, guys Smile I'm still not entirely comfortable doing this on my own.


Edit: I have an idea. What if I just stay in the chat room 24/7 from now on? That way I can't miss it (unless I already did :O)

 		Hmmm, right now it's 3:16 AM, EST, on the 16th. Too late to get in on it I take it? Well, I'm gonna try anyway, I love this whole concept.

I was thinking of going with "The Bowling Ball Killer", a man who is known for murders where the victim's head is severed and leaves each holding their own severed head inside a bowling ball bag.

I could go into more detail, I write short stories and fiction as a hobby, so this is right up my alley Wink But yeah, I'll try to email the guy right now, hope I can still get in.

EDIT: Sent the email, let's see what happens

No, you haven't missed it. Nothing happened at 1:30 AM, so I'm guessing it's actually 1:30 PM.
You seem to be right up this ARGs alley too Smile
