We already have several of our scenarios downloadable from our own website. Some will eventually go to the Irish Gaming download area (where there is a lot of excellent material to be found - can't remember the url off the top of my head, but there's a link on the Omentide website) and, where appropriate (and Control permitting), will be made available to the Men in Black program. I'll certainly be putting up the IN LARPs eventually, but, as I'm running one at GenCon (UK) in September, it won't be till after that! Spaces in both the GenCon (UK) Larps are pre-bookable - if anyone's interested, please mail me off list. - - Regards Hilary hilary.omentide@virgin.net http://freespace.virgin.net/omentide.omentide ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 05 Jul 99 03:59:10 Eastern Daylight Time From: gtps36@aol.com Subject: IN> Financial Freedom !!

THIS MAY BE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT LETTER YOU RECEIVE
THIS YEAR!!

Please follow the instructions of this letter very carefully,

Greetings,

Hopefully, my name is still on the list. When I first read the letter,
I thought it was some off-the-wall idea to make money. A week
later I met again with my client to discuss the issue. I told him
that the letter originally brought to me was not 100% legal.
I advised him to make a small change in the letter and it would
be alright.

I was curious about the letter, so he told me how it works.
I thought it was a long shot, so I decided against participating.
Before my client left, I asked him to keep me updated as to
his results. About two months later he called to tell me that
he had received over $800,000 in cash!! I didn't believe him
so he asked me to try the plan and see for myself. I thought
about it for a few days and decided that there was not much
to lose. I followed the instructions exactly and mailed out
200 letters. Sure enough the money started coming in!! It
came slowly at first, but after three weeks I was getting more
than I could open in a day. After about three months the
money stopped coming. I kept a precise record of my
earnings and at the end they totaled $868,439.00!

I was earning a good living as a lawyer, but as anyone
in the legal profession will tell you, there is a lot of stress
that comes with the job. I told myself if things worked
out I would retire from practice and play golf. I decided
to try the letter again, but this time I sent out 500 letters.
Well, three months after that I had totaled $2,344,178.00!!
I just couldn't believe it. I met my old client for lunch to find
out exactly how this program works. He told me that there were a
few similar letters going around. What made this one
different is the fact that there are seven names on the
letter, not five like most others. This fact, alone, resulted
in more returns. The other factor was the advice I gave
him in making sure the whole thing was perfectly legal,
since no one wants to risk doing anything illegal.

I bet now you are curious about what changes I told him to
make. Well, if you send a letter like this out, to be legal,
you must sell something if you expect to receive a dollar.
I told him that anyone sending a dollar out must receive
something in return. So when you send a dollar to each
of the seven names on the list you must include a piece
of paper saying "please put me on you mailing list" and
include your name and mailing address.

Follow these simple instructions exactly and in less
that three months you will receive over $800,000.00.

A) Mail a $1 bill (wrapped in a piece of blank paper) to each
of the seven names below. Include a note (typed or handwritten
saying "Please add me to your mailing list" and include
your name and mailing address. You MUST include this note for
this to be legal.

1. H.D. Lambert, P.O. Box 155, Opelika, AL 36803
2. Don Stone, 245 Lous Court, Watsonville, CA 95076
3. Exertions Box 44 Ridgeland, MS 39158
4. R. Colwell, 7611 Barberton Drive, Houston, TX 77036
5. L. Jenkins, 3303 Cumberland Dr., Missouri City, TX 77459
6. M.L. Potzer RR#1 Box #1981, Berwick, PA 18603
7. D.Shattuck 2000 N.E. 259th St. Ridgefield, WA 98642

B) Remove the name next to #1 at the top of the list and
move the rest of the names up one position. Then place your
name in the #7 spot. This is done by saving this to a file and
the entering your information on line #7. Be very careful when
you type the addresses and be sure to proof read them.

C) When you have completed the above instructions you have
an option of mailing your new letter in two ways. 1) Through US
Postal Service or 2) through e-mail. This letter has been proven
perfectly legal for both ways as long as you follow the above
instructions, because you're purchasing membership in our
exclusive mailing list. To mail this out over the internet, you
could browse through areas and find people to send this to
all the time. All you have to do is cut and paste e-mail addresses
whenever you are on the internet. Or you can use a Mass E-mail
Network to mail your letter in large volumes for you. We highly
recommend this method.
Contact this Bulk E-mail Company now. They have the lowest
rates on the net and they are fast, provide effective results and give
excellent service. They are running a special for $89.00 per
100,000 mailings and if you order now they are giving away
an extra 50,000 mailings free. The number is
207-896-7915.

Send this letter to thousands, even millions. This will bring you
big payoffs.

***Keep in mind there is no limit to the amount of names you could
send out. The more names you send, the more money you will
make. We strongly encourage you to mail this letter to family and
friends as well.

THIS IS A SERVICE AND IS 100% LEGAL!!!
(refer to title 18, section 1302 & 1342 of the U.S. Postal and Lottery
Laws). This program is also legal in Canada.

Assume for example, that you get 7.5% return rate, which is
very conservative. My first attempt was about 9.5% and my
second was over 11%.

1) When you mail out 200 letters, 15 people will send
out $1.00
2) Those 15 people mail out 200 letters and 225 people
send you $1.00
3) Those 225 mail out 200 letters and 3,375 people
send you $1.00
4) Those 3,375 people mail out 200 letters and 50,625
send you $1.00
5) Those 50,625 people mail out 200 letters and 759,375 people
send you $1.00
6) Those 759,375 people mail out 200 letters and 11,390,625 people
send you $1.00

At this point, your name drops off the list. Think about it.
With only the first six levels, you have received over
$813,615.00!!

Smile all the way to the bank.

"The Marches," page 81: "Ethereal spirits operating in the corporal realm create disturbances in the Symphony just as celestials do. The ethereals are no more 'natural' in the corporeal realm than celestials are. Ethereals in the Marches do not cause disturbances in the Symphony unless they intefere with the dreams of a human or otherwise harm or affect a human, in which case they cause disturbance normally." I assume that ethereals can detect disturbance just as celestials, undead, and soldiers do. - -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ | Jason F.

Hello, I'm doing the prepwork to get my first IN campiagn started. I haven't actually had a chance to play IN yet, and I would like to play first. Failing that I'd like to at least watch a game. So if anyone has an IN game online (MUSH, PBEM) and doesn't mind lurkers (possibly a player), please let me know. For that matter if anyone is running a face-to-face game in the Dallas/Ft Worth area, I'd be interested in observing. Please respond via email.

He should be around by that time, and probably already has his Word of Technology. Who he's a servitor to is a good question. Technology doesn't seem to fit under any of the Words of the Princes of the time. <> Without a date on the Legion incident, Jean could be fairly new to his expanded duties and he or his servitors can unknowingly help Vapula with this. This could explain why Jean became so cautious and micromanages everything. S. Flanigan ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 6 Jul 1999 14:57:51 +0200 From: "Niels C. G.
