 		Alright, questions I have:

1. Why are there so many new accounts being added, and so many old accounts coming back, only for this particular game? I guess the Mythos wasn't dying after all!
2. Why is the Archangel, or his religious followers, the Timberwolves, focusing only on Christianity? There are several other religions (Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hindu, Baha'i, ect). Why aren't they focusing on those religious texts? Perhaps we'll find out? Seems a bit strange to me...
3. I emailed Gabriel about what happened last night as well, and he responded with only this: "Everything is fine." Interesting...
4. WHO. WAS. PHONE.

I really wish I could help out with the codes, guys. I really do. I just don't know how... Also, that Fear vlog TheOnlyOne posted about looks fantastic. I may have to check it out.

I went ahead and read about the Archangel and the Timberwolves on the FearWiki. I'm not convinced that THIS is the scenario we are working with. I am more inclined to believe
THIS
is the FEAR we are being challenged by. If you dig deeper into that WIKI, it goes on to describe a "Mad Doctor" type by the name of Dr. Beakman. If we aren't dealing with this Beakman himself, I think we are dealing with someone LIKE him.
As for why the Christian undertones, I THINK it may be to confirm the Sept. 29th date. The celebration of Saints, in which Gabriel is celebrated, is a Christian belief and celebration.

On a personal note, this is my 666th post! If I were religious I might be worried!!! Laughing

EDIT:
I just received an email from Gabriel!

You need to listen to me. 
I am not in control of myself. 
The last 24 hours of my life are gone. I'm in school right now with no idea how i got here. The person that replied to you was not me. Well, maybe it was. 
The point is, the person or thing doing this to me is a lot stronger or bigger than I previously imagined. If you know anything about what is happening please tell me.

It's good to hear from the REAL YOU, Gabriel!
When I spoke to you yesterday, I had a feeling something wasn't right,
so the group and I have been "digging" in order to try and figure out
EXACTLY what we are up against. I THINK we may have found our answer,
but we haven't been able to confirm it yet.
Gabriel, have you or anyone VERY CLOSE to you been to the hospital or
seen a physician in the last couple of weeks? The reason I ask is that
we have a theory that your situation may involve a group called "The
Oathbreakers", Our blog author MAY BE an actual physician, AND this
may get VERY WIERD!!! Way beyond just losing 24 hours of your life!
I mentioned that this process may get a little "uncomfortable", well,
this may be that time. Gabriel, are you religious?
Have you had ANY contact with people who have mentioned "The
Slenderman" besides us, the group?
I believe you have been "chosen" by this CULT as some sort of
sacrifice. The fact that you don't remember the last 24 hours, BUT YOU
AND I communicated via email is VERY DISTURBING! Have you spoken to
anyone as to your actions yesterday? In other words, did anyone else
SEE YOU yesterday, and if so, did you seem normal?
I don't want to alarm you, but based on the blog posts, we think Sept. 29th MIGHT be a significant date so time is of the essence.

I'm not sure how to deal with a character that can be possessed? Without an extra set of hands and eyes on Gabriel, I don't know how we can help him?
NEW POST!
I guess that answers the question as to why the blog is using Christianity!

 		Who are we dealing with?
That cipher is an ATBASH cipher.

I haven't heard back from Gabriel, so I've gone back and reviewed all the info we have so far. The best I can come up with is that our blog writer is "Pestilence" of the Four Horsemen and he/she wants Gabriel for The Antichrist???
I know it doesn't fit PERFECTLY with the FearWiki, but it seems to fit with our evidence?! Shocked

 		DeadbyDawn, if you are saying this "doctor" who is following Gabriel is one of the four horsemen, where are the other 3?

If I AM right, which even I'm not 100% sure of yet, the other three haven't shown up yet. Pestilence is the first Horsemen to show up according to Revelations.
Pestilence is clad in white and rides a white horse. ALL WHITE, like a Doctor.
I speculated that our blog author is Pestilence based on ALL the info we've gathered. That is NOT to say he couldn't ALSO be the "Plague Doctor" described in the FearWiki. Maybe they are one in the same?

 		Well, I've been searching around, and I've found that Lord Strain (Pestilence is a completely different entity) is what's known as a "Fear Interpretation", which is basically what the name implies: Original creatures that are inspired by the canonical Fears, that exist within a certain universe with multiple blog tie-ins to said universe. Maybe they have a different name, maybe they have a different power, but they can only be used with the creator of the blog's consent. Let's say you wanted to make a vlog centered around Mister Oculus, a Fear Interpretation of the Eye that exists within the Runner Verse. Well, you would first have to contact one of the creators of the Runner Verse. Then, you would have to come to an agreement that since that character is in that universe alone, your vlog takes place in that universe as well. And boom! You can use the characters to your heart's content. Otherwise, this would be in bad taste, and is highly frowned upon in the Fear community (Not sure what universe Lord Strain exists in).

On another note, I decided to take tloyc2012's advice, and break my different points into paragraphs. I suppose this looks not-so-abrasive-to-the-eyes...

I was going to mention this when I noticed it, but I'm a lazy fuck, and decided to do it later. Anyways, I saw on Gabriel's Ask.fm account this message, the same day they said they were going to take him...

Question: W3'R3 C0M1NG, G4BR13L...
Answer: (I can remember a bit of what he said, but I'm paraphrasing here, sorry if it's not precise) WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?!!! WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?!?!

The message was deleted the same day.

Also, I'm an agnostic Baha'i. Just throwing that out there, since this series seems to focus on religion. Hopefully I don't become a target of ol' Archie. Laughing

 		I think I know who the cult serves and what they are after. Did a quick look at the archangel page on the fear mythos wiki and it mentions that he can manifest as ANY dead person, that his servants are mostly CULTS AND the fact that when he has a domain it is called BLISS. I believe that the cult worships the archangel and believe that he will take them to his domain if they serve him faithfully. I also think that he could be the horseman known as death since his motif is the afterlife and death. This is just a theory however.

 		So do we have two of the horsemen?
What if they want Gabriel to become the Archangel?
He hasn't responded to any of my emails.

 		Theories
First off, I received another email from The Dr.

BECAUSE THE END WILL HAPPEN
And your efforts will all fail.
Gabriel will become one of us and lead us into the promised land.
If you don't stop now.
We will eradicate the roadblock.
This is your one and only chance to leave Gabriel alone.
If you don't 
It is yourselves who will be in danger.

So, it would appear we are making the Dr. nervous enough for him/her to resort to threats! Its also pretty clear that the Dr.'s intent is to turn Gabriel into "one of them". What ONE OF THEM is, I don't know yet! This story sounds SO FAMILIAR, but it's been "Many Moons" since my last Bible study!
I've also been in contact with Gabriel. He stated someone else from our group suggested he start documenting his actions due to the fact that he can't remember ANYTHING from Wednesday. I suggested he enlist the help of his CLOSEST friend to help with this. Also, his grandmother was in a car accident on Wednesday and he is the one who admitted her to the hospital. So, everyone should probably keep an eye on his Youtube account as well! Also, Gabriel is a devout Christian.

I'd just like to say, I think the FearWiki is a GREAT resource, BUT limiting ourselves to the characters their is a mistake. If I recall correctly, Hunter STUMBLED onto this blog by mistake? So, assuming it falls under the Slendy universe may be incorrect. And, even if this does fall into the Slendy universe, our Dr. may not be a character that already exists. We need to stay open to possibilities AND be sure our theories match ALL the evidence gathered.

My posts ALWAYS end up being SO LONG! Sorry!!! Embarassed

EDIT:
So, I decided to respond to the Dr. by returning the threat. I may have kind of EMBELLISHED our numbers a bit! Razz
I'm hoping to elicit an emotional response that MAY give us some new info. FINGERS CROSSED! Very Happy

You mean your tiny group on that website? Such a threat.
More of an annoyance.
I'd have something to back up your threats. You'll need them.

Who ever said I was a doctor? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I also received the photo that is posted in the blog in the email from Gabriel.
Once again Gabriel is possessed, for lack of a better word. Our blog author ISN'T a doctor. And, we are nothing more than an annoyance! Mad
I thought the laughter was probably another binary cipher, but the 10th group of letters is only 7 characters long. Binary is divisible by 8?
Anyone else have any photo editing tools? If I had my computer I would check the image in the blog for anything hidden. Run the contrast up on the image and see if any hidden detail show up?
