Hello everyone,

So I have had a lot of contact with Aleister fairly early on in the Experience and continue to do so. We have not always met eye-to-eye on things but overall I like Aleister and as of late I’ve heard (I don’t actually speak to Aleister, all of this is through online messaging) a hint that Aleister may be a little overworked and not necessarily at his own will. I’m only posting this out of two things:

1.) At this point I’m a little concerned for Aleister.
2.) There’s such a push for all information to go here on forum, I’m doing it.

PLEASE keep this in mind that I don’t feel we have the full and complete picture.

When we were chatting back and forth on 5/24 and he said have a good shift (I told him I was at work) and I said, you too he said:
honestly, part of my post requires me being here 24 hours.

When I asked 5/29 after the event “did I see you today”
Aleister: you did not, I am kept away from everyone

Again I want to stress that these are sound bites. But now you have them. I stress not to jump to conclusions but I’ll admit that these things alarm me since 24 hour shift is, well, terrible. And being kept away from everyone sounds terrible. HOWEVER, being kept away from everyone can be misinterpreted. Maybe Aleister kindly request to be kept alone, I in fact have a co-worker that prefers to be alone. So I caution all with the information here.

Hm, obviously I want @thegilded to chime in here too but the first thing that comes to mind is create an index of all clues and where they’re located in a thread? Have said glossary sticked on the puzzles topic? I don’t want it to be too complicated to avoid confusing any newbies…

[MelissaModerator]

Hey guys! Hopefully more puzzle pieces show up so we can piece everything together! I compiled all pieces posted thus far and put them on a shareable document.

Can you elaborate @kasch, I’m not following unfortunately. :-/

[MelissaModerator]

@thebuz, to add here on your track of thought. Ya, there has to be something we’re not seeing because WHY would ~4 hammer the whole sharing theme? Yes, I get the whole “OOA doesn’t like the whispers in the dark thing” but they made that extremely clear a while ago, that’s not news.

I really think we’re or did miss something…

[MelissaModerator]

Of course! I try to do what I can!

Also, holy moly I missed the 242 = 8 thank you for pointing that out @thebuz

Wow I’m dense. So….8 seems to be a common thread here in the letter.

So, going out on a real limb here but did we as a Community miss 8 things or items or clues? I really hope not because that’s a lot.

[MelissaModerator]

Interesting @thegilded, so 8 wouldn’t be a stretch then. I don’t want this to turn into a lynch mob of people who held back with clues but people COME ON. Yes, we’re all told that we all have our own _Path BUT Tension stresses the hell out of COMMUNITY. Holding back clues/items/puzzles IS a disservice to the COMMUNITY and ~4 here is trying to hammer that point. I’m sticking to that, no hard feelings to anybody that made the mistake of hiding things in the dark or done so inadvertently.

And reading more into this letter if I’m right, Addison and our lack of action probably hurt us. I hope it didn’t hurt Addison too.

[MelissaModerator]

Quite welcome!

[MelissaModerator]

@kasch, do you know who got those numbers? If so, consider tagging them here in this thread, maybe they’ll remember!

[MelissaModerator]

Oh man I hope so.

[MelissaModerator]

Ah. Gotcha. I did not get numbers so I think that’s why I was kinda confused.

[MelissaModerator]

That’s interesting…I wonder if he’s alluding to @thebuz and this mail(?)

[MelissaModerator]

That’s kinda exciting. I think we’ll* all be waiting for mail news with bated breath! Here’s to hoping!

*okay, me.

[MelissaModerator]

And I will look forward to all your piss @111error.

…

that…that did NOT come out the way it should have, but I’ll leave it be.
