RIP Ronnie.

Quick-SPEC: The numbers on the buildings are the order the bodies were found in.

Sorry Ron...

Looks like we can slide TT into creepy, evil corporation and rule out anytype of accidents involving Dread House.

[SPEC] Found this interesting code in the source of the last wishes page:

edit: actually just view the source you will see it, posting it here breaks the boards formating

Lastwishes is legitimate and out-of-game website.
You set up for message to be sent if you do not contact them by a certain amount of time.
Remember, this service was mentioned in an article (link posted by vpisteve not too long ago) about how your internet presence continues after you die.

Regarding "Mr" Richards, JS's assistant - is this Richard Meyers?

Damn, I sure hope nothing has happened to Ron. We really needed a source inside TT. And I'd hate for anything to have happened to one of the "nice" guys.

So it could be that this journal is just to provide some backstory, but I'm starting to think that there could be a clue buried inside of it - like the VM password. LastWishes sent two files, one of which gives us a voicemail, so it seems possible that the other could provide access to the voicemail.

At first glance, the only oddities I notice in the journal are some punctuation. Not much, but a couple places of note, and I figured I might as well point them out:

1. Beginning of the journal:

Good spec Dish.

I agree that the punctuation may be significant.

In his webmastertools page, his spelling and grammer were perfect, so it is weird that it is not so here.

I've already started a PUZZLE thread for Ron's World here.

I can't figure out how to move your posts over to that thread - can you guys repost your great SPECs in there? Thanks.

Regarding the missing break after the journal name, "Ron's World": there is a new line in the source. I don't know if that means anything or not... I'm not even sure where the source came from. Maybe the journal was typed up somewhere else and pasted into the last wishes journal, but the line breaks didn't come along.

The periods are weird.

I wonder if the time of the postings could be used as a password.
