4th email from Spearman: "The choice is made" (Find Andy blog)

Mine has odd fonts too; they've all been really strangely set out. Though if others aren't seeing that, I imagine it's just to do with our webmail / email thingy.

Well done for catching up JayKay ??

Now are we all assuming that we're going to get another clue?!

On memberslist, got Fractured Worlds with no posts, last logged on at 9.17... Just gonna keep going through them, back in a mo...

looks like 86 people have joined but not posted......

This game is getting wayy too confusing. Will have to look at the e-mail again tomorrow & try & make some sense of it! On anoter note, whilst I was driving into town this evening there was a car in front of me with a personal no. plate & the last 3 letters were "L0X"

Spooky!

I noticed 'The Magician' a few days ago too

the game makers must have joined the forum near the beginning - they wouldn't make multiple accounts for each character surly? unless they were gonna post as the character on here rather than just watch and listen... and if this 'ellis' character hasn't joined up by now chances are they won't post direct to the forum - would make it too easy for us!!

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if the game makers were here. I mean, how else can they keep tabs on us?

Yeh, noticed that too.

Here's the Derrenish/religious/place/military/hinting type names I could find. Now a lot do post, but maybe we should trust no one? gingerninja, Japester, zdrac22, BRIMFUL, Deepa, godsdog, vesper, cityofnohope, nephthys, eqvites, V4NGUARD http://www.vanguardngr.com/ (also military connections) doorman911, TrustNo1 (trust no one), Twistingspiral

Vanguard is also a Nigerian paper.

Thanks Jax! Now if one of those people would just own up, we can narrow it down!

Have fun looking up my name .... *better double check it myself just in case *

I think it is almost certain that the game makers are watching us. The game and clues will probably happen according to what we are and are not figuring out. But indeed TrustNo1.

I trust no one TrustNo1

Keep your eyes open for red type and type appearing where it wasn't before - like the poor abused baby's. Especially on Friday. Derren has also discussed fonts on the blog. I'm going to look for that post. I remember the restaurant/hotel post and another.

I'm not meaning to pick anyone out, guys, I'm just getting it all out there for folks to look into.

No offence taken. I've used this name for a while... not sure why I picked it but wanted an Egyptian name but nothing too pretentious... I just had to double check she wasn't anything to do with magic and make you all paranoid with me

Anyway, where were we?

Has anyone else been contemplating the 'handwritten' letter from Andy? It doesnt seem to be written by someone who has been forced to write it. Firstly, it is written in two sections which suggests it was started then paused over and then finished, note the chatty wording 'Had to dash'. Bit of an emergency - hardly describes life or death situation. Secondly, he has every intention of being back in December. This suggests he left of his own free will. The handwriting is neat and he even had time to sign it. Lastly, why is 'Bitof' written as one word?

I have been staring at the notebook for ages. Yes I noticed it was in two parts, and the 'Bitof' is one word, which is curious, google search didn't find anything yet though. Also as it's been named 'whiterabbit2' doesn't this suggest it is something to 'follow' next. I also think there are things we are missing in Ellis' blog text. The use of words and details like 'army brat' and 'nomad' and the fact that he tells us his parents died when he was 16. Also the fact that he states Andy would come home a tell wild stories of his travels - hoped this would reveal a pretend travel blog on the net somewhere but yet to find it.............

I wonder if that also suggest how long the game is likely to last... at the most?

god its hard to keep up sometimes i think im about to have a melt down over here. so quick round up of possible things going on here:

the Church of Scientology
the middle east
north africa. (Chad/Nigeria)
December (end date?)
barbershop clock
andys note

we still have the clocks from the 1st two emails which may or my not relate.
3:31
2:08

if i missed anything shout at me in a loud voice cos im drifting off here

wheres the link!? is there one?

thoughts and ideas

I know, Ed, still can't get the time to sign on to the blog and read all that or listen to the file! Buluddy Hell!

i must say i didnt enjoy listing to that file at all. it made me feel uncomfatable and really creeped me out infact.
i think iv caught up on everything now so its all good

theres quite a lot in the posts that others (more experienced arg players) have noticed on previous blog posts about time and such - worth a look

I don't think the note was supposed to be by someone who was forced to write it - my view of the story is that he went off, rather happily, and then got in trouble.

I'm thinking another part of the puzzle that we're not really mentioning now is the whole pallindrome thing... SOLOS... and the time going backwards thing. His backwards concept was a massive part of the media coverage leading up to The Events-and then nothing really happened with it(yet??!).. and all the emails have got the backwards type included- which relates to the pallindrome/going backward thing.
This is still REALLY random thinking out loud for me! just want to keep all possible clues out in the open. I think once we get more clues a lot may revolve around this kinda concept..??
