Let's not forget that she's backpacking, since there's a backpacking hostel too...

Hey, we should ask her about that login window at ilovebees, she may have a clue about it too...

Also availability listed only from May or Jun 04 (depending on listing webpage) to Aug 04

Another point about the backpacking hostel, is there's a new rating as of August 5th, 04. (did I remember that correctly?) Anyway, there's a very very recent one, that would correspond with Dana (or anyone else, too, I suppose) staying there in the correct timeframe. (gives time for one to stay there a night or two, and then write a description.)

Also, do you really think (honey hostel people) that Dana would stay in a 80% security rated hostel? With all that's going on. I admit that the possibilities are cool for this being a match, but I just don't see it. (In fact, I think she would stay away from a Honey Hostel outright, cuz of why she left!)

The Honey Hostel is definitely a good lead/connection. It's hurting my brain to think about what it could mean though.

Found this site which states the Honey Hostel is currently empty. Think we might be looking in the wrong place.
Maybe if I'm superfast I'll end up double-booked in a room with Dana. mmmmm.
edit: Did someone just book in there on Monday night? As the beds just dissappeared for that day.

Re: I think she gets it

Note that there's another Hostel: Beijing Honey Homestay with the same owners (Mike and Aria)... having two of them may lend more weight to the "coincidence" possibility.

On first glance www.honeyhomestay.com appears to have been attacked by the Queen, but if you look closely it's actually just the site has been written by a 10 year old, possibly in Notepad.
Anyways, it has an e-mail address so I just contacted them.

Yah - I'm a little wierded by the tables with blanks.... whois says created in February of 2003 - so edging towards too old to be in-game. *shrug* Gives us something fun to play around with for today tho.

While it's great to get something new. especially from Dana, I can see us gaining momentum in the direction of finding her exact location.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't look into verifying her story some, but please let us not harrass the only sane ally we have. We are here to help her. Remember?

So unless someone can find a hidden message from her somewhere asking for us to hunt her like a fugitive, lets lay off a little. We don't want to spook her, our only inside connection.

So I have to ask a question of the grizzled veterans here.

What's the best way for us to go about this? We do need to communicate in-game what we know to Dana, and open up some sort of dialog beyond, "We're here to help!", we say. "Yes! Thankyou!" said Dana.

What has worked best for this sort of thing in the past?
