[UPDATE] April 10th

This has to be the funniest IRC convo I've seen in a while. They give perfect reactions for people who just found out that a bunch of strangers have been studying their every move.

Edit: Haha - Ian said he put the info from the SD Card on Ian-net and I couldn't find it under his personal file. It turns out he has a whole new directory for it. The only information in there is a 12 meg file to download.

Edit #2: And j5 has another email to Ian telling him to contact Will about who we are.
Edit:Fixed link-Ehsan

Another funny IRC convo between Ian & CG. BottomlessPitMan & I both get a shout out (which is funny in the fact I haven't posted over there. My name only comes up in the FAQ which points to the trail.)

CG also wonders what ARGN in. Ian says he doesn't know - despite the fact he has it listed in his Links file.

I imagine the first thing the poor boy would've clicked on would be the FAQ. That trail makes you seem to be the designated stalker, more or less. Wink

????????????????????????



(great icon by the way)

I'm not really sure how to take this... so Ian now thinks that we think that he's part of a game? Do we try to convince him otherwise, or do we try to carry on helping him, all the time with him believing that we're crazy stalkers who think he's a ficitional 2D computer game character??

[EDIT] Talking of which, in The Nisha Chronicles, i think there should be a level where Ian has a topless i-pod dance-off with the bad guys Smile

Anyone else notice that one of the images on the SD card has yet a 3rd A3 VIN number on it? I sent Ian an e-mail with the vin so he can try to pull the shipping document on it so we can figure out where to go next.

VIN : wauhf68p16a000174

New email from Ian to Nisha:

I've played around with the information on the SD file but it looks like
gibberish to me. If Gunter hid stuff in here it's double encoded in
puzzles and crap. Gonna take me a while to figure it out. Maybe you
were right about telling Virgil. THis stuff is right up his alley.


He also breaks the news about stolena3.com and how we're playing along.

The 3rd car is going to hit the docks at Houston and go to Atlanta.

He's also worried about the goons following them.

New email from Nisha to Ian. Nisha proposes that they use their new found "friends" to help them figure out what Gunter is up to. We're supposed to post our findings to them on stolena3.com. Oh, and she has come up with a name for us: Retrievers.

Started thread at stolena3.com

Well, I started a thread at stolena3.com & put up the password for the ppics.zip file.

I guess we'll see what happens next.

I notice Todd's taken great pains not to mention unfiction too directly. There's been enough comment about it, so we probably should leave references out -- I'm guessing they're trying to keep it firm that unfiction is OOG.
