Hi all!

I'm new to the forum and to args in general, although I've lurked for awhile lol I've been following along and this seems really interesting so far! I hope it's not too late join in (if you guys don't mind) and hopefully help out Smile

I think I might have an answer for the riddle on Polly's page. I'll post it and see.


Welcome! Never too late, and more help is always welcome Smile. Make sure you introduce yourself to Lucy at http://www.yourworldoftext.com/lucylime.

ETA: I was wondering if the text on the polly page was supposed to be a riddle! Lucy didn't add "WHAT AM I?" until today. Something else to puzzle out!

ETA: Hmm...Lucy's added to the text on the martinblackwood page. Are we on the wrong track?

ETA: The "jury" is getting more full...choose your side (on the page Arbad discovered)!

Thank you! And oops, silly me, thanks for the heads up!

Concerning the riddle, I wasn't sure if the WHAT AM I? only referred to the last line or the entire entry, but I gave my two best guesses...

I want to vote, but I just have a quick question. I'm probably reading too much into this, but do you think there's any significance to the fact that there's a "No" option? Verse 3 seems to imply the knowledge could be "costly."

i received a reply from Callum about book recommendations:
Quote:
Armitage? Ah, I have seen you have been talking to my wife. Armitage is an honorary father of Lucy - sort of adopted - made her the woman she is today. Never got on with him myself, found him to be 'too almost self-consciously poetic in his writing which I feel is to the detriment of the drama' he writes... ~If you want to read a book, you'll have to tell me what sort of thing you're wanting... got an impressive library here...


from his Facebook list he recommended Macbeth, The Prophet, and Songs of Innocence and of Experience. i noted that the poem "Earth's Answer" that Shad0 mentioned earlier is found in Songs of Experience so i wonder what other links might exist to these works. i'm going to think more on what "sort of thing" i should tell him i want to read.

i also received a tinypic url with a picture of Mars and its astrological symbol:

supposedly ferrets are an invasive species that would disrupt the natural ecosystems if they were to escape and reproduce....i dunno about all that.

also, dreamer
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
was that you who left a note for Lucy in /artemis? i can't remember why i ended up there but...i'm pretty sure the number listed is a sex hotline, lol.

Oh dear! It was indeed I who left the message, but I was pretty sure that the message already there was non-game-related.

Holy cow, that Mars pic is hard to read. Notice the lost quarter on this symbol, too.

i figured the number was already there...i was about to call it when my boyfriend realised what it spells and stopped me.

i wasn't able to find any other sizes of the image...i'm kind of stuck because yeah, it's hard for me to see clearly and GIS doesn't bring up any particularly similar or seemingly relevant results.

i think so, checking /lucina today there's a new verse

Hi everyone. Long time no ARG. But looks like I'm a part of this one. So, got this via FB today

Seems there is a message within the message

Might be a good time to start a "wiki" post with all the in play links listed. I'm a bit lost finding them all myself.

Received a new Tinypic from Lucy for answering the riddle on /polly. It's the sign for Saturn, which appears to be unaltered. My GIS for the background image didn't turn up much, though it looks very familiar. Anyone else know where it's from?



Also, Lucy has revealed her secret on /glueboy:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"I have never known my husband." Looks like Callum isn't all that trustworthy?...


Since we need a unanimous yes on /lucina, I'll go ahead and cast my vote.

Welcome! Always good to have more brains puzzling things out Smile.

Heh, alright, that sounds like my cue, given that I was the one who set up wikis for a couple previous ARGs by this PM...I'll do some work on it now, but I'll warn you I probably won't be able to keep it up-to-date all by myself -- feel free to contribute, everyone (please do) Smile!

ETA: guys, I see some of y'all focusing on Callum's 2010 event, since it seems related to the previous 3 games we've played with this PM. I'm not sure whether that is meant as anything but nostalgia for us, or a little flag of "Hey, it's this same PM again" - I don't blame you for bringing up the connection, to see if it is related to this new game, but the sudden influx of out-of-the-blue questions has got to be hella confusing for players new to this PM.

If you ARE new to this PM (i.e., you didn't play Vanessa Atalanta, the Ministry of Argon, or Fifteen Days of Darkness, all back in 2010), feel free to ask about the gist of those games...not sure if those old threads are still around here.

I did not play those games, I've not really done this ARG thing much before. I played some of Pietro Radillo then that one died out. So any knowledge you think would be helpful, I would love to hear. Feel free to PM me on here or Facebook if you don't want to post it all on the forum.

I'd be happy to get the gist of the previous play with this PM. Usually helps a little Smile I haven't been active since Sammeeeees, so I am very out of the swing of this, with only a little time to give to it too Sad

ETA: Should we be chronicling the Facebook interactions?

ETA: Yeah, we should Smile here are the group sends

Just noticed the earliest post in Callum's FB timeline:
"Previous and penultimate - June 9, 2010
Greenwich - dated a woman - she and I were too compatible... too close, so I moved and we agreed to both move on."
Wondering if per chance this was Lucy...

Well, let's not talk about him as if he were not part of this conversation .
Callum, did you happen to date a young woman named Claire perchance?
Paul Bird

Maybe she was Vanessa back then.

Paul Bird then sends a picture (and I've forgotten all the tricks to this forum, I'll get my skills back) I've uploaded the pic.

Callum Felderi
Yeah, Paul, it is. However, I've moved on from her - she wasn't any good for me - it was during a break I had with my wife [both agreeing we should see other people - it wasn't the right thing - hence moving back to MK] - but yeah - I decided to cash in on her friends - is that a wrong thing? She went silent - completely silent - as if I never existed - and, well, ultimately, I decided to move on.
Callum Felderi
11:11am
Callum Felderi
She's not been around since - and, well, trust me, I would know if she were around - let her be- move on as well - if you had anything to do with her ok? For whatever reason, she doesn't want to be found - all i care about is Lucy now.
Joy McCourt
11:13am
Joy McCourt
Callum, I have to clarify - in your March 3 status, is it Lucy who was leaving you?
Callum Felderi
11:15am
Callum Felderi
no - it was Vanessa. Though leaving is the wrong word - it was the time I'd given her to reply, and to have found any trace of her - she's completely gone by that point so I moved on - my petulance at that time may have read that I she 'left me' but, in all essence we'd not been together for over a year.
Callum Felderi
11:15am
Callum Felderi
The break between Lucy and I was longer... I DID have Lucy's permiossion - as she had mine - to try other things.
But Lucy ALWA?YS contacted me, regardless of how thigns were between us - on the days of power and speciality [her words] - and she didn't this year on the equinox.
Hence setting all of this up. Partly anyhow.
Make sense?
Joy McCourt
11:16am
Joy McCourt
Yes, thanks for the clarification. It makes your Wall posts make a lot more sense.
It sounded before as if you knew Lucy was leaving, and then you were surprised by it -- now I get it

Almost certainly not - she may make others lie, but never do it herself.
Truth to her... well its like a torch or flame - keeps her going.

Wiki wiki wiki!!!

http://callumfelderi.wikia.com/wiki/Callum_Felderi_Wikia

Please edit away to bring this up to date...I can't do anymore for several hours as I have an Easter dinner to prepare and host!

I'd encourage you to at least add yourself to the "Players who's who" at http://callumfelderi.wikia.com/wiki/Players_who%27s_who...I am so confused as to who is who between here and Facebook and yourworldoftext already, and adding a wikia username may make things even more confusing.

Thanks!

Small point: In the first word puzzle, the name Vaihinger was mentioned. Hans Vaihinger was a German philosopher known for his 'as if' theory and 'the consciously false' - riddles of life? Hence, perhaps, the Riddler...

'Eco' is also mentioned. Any ideas about that?
