Physical Email Experiment One by help im a bear, teucer, JJason Recognition, Agent Fourteen

November 25th, 2007 10:31 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: A letter that is to be sent by USPS is given to player one. He or she types it up as an email and then emails it to player two, who prints it out, puts it back into an envelope and delivers it to the addressee. Feel free to include as many members as you wish by creating more nodes between the sender and addressee (player one emails player two who mails player three who emails player four who mails the addressee, etc.).

So there I was, checking my e-mails when I founded a message from my good foe, Agent Fourteen. A message for Agent help I'm a bug, you say? Sounds good. I got myself a piece of paper and forwarded the e-mail to help I'm a bug, carefully copying the message on to a piece of paper. Then I delivered it by bicycle. -Agent JJason

Agent JJason caught up with Agent help im a bug while Agent help im a bug was visiting me in my basement abode. The letter informed Agent help of some truly egregious assaults on his honor, by a third party referred to as "David (the Elder)" - to distinguish him from another David, of course. Agent Fourteen asserted that David (the Elder) had made a great many statements insulting the im a bug family name, and Agent help was not going to stand for this sort of thing.

After angrily throwing the letter to the ground, he hastily wrote a reply to David (the Elder), which he had me deliver. Due to the contents of the reply, I felt that the task of delivering this message was not an entirely safe one, and was careful to properly protect myself for the delivery.

Having challenged David (the Elder) to a duel and named me as his second, Agent help im a bug had me deliver his missive while wearing my body armor (it's a tasteful pseudo-Byzantine lamellar piece that goes quite well with a variety of accessories) in case of a violent reaction. David (the Elder) has yet to respond to Agent help's challenge except with further cracks about help's family, but as we now know him too much of a coward to defend these charges in honorable combat we know them to be false and unworthy of our time; this is why they do not in our opinion bear repetition here. - Agent Harmon

Note: images of the final delivery step are missing because I (Peter Harmon) screwed up and took them with the memory card out of my camera. I delayed in posting this so I could get the cable which lets me get them off anyway, but the cable turns out to be broken and is thus not actually letting me access them. Just imagine an armored Harmon delivering a scroll, tied in blue ribbon, to a very confused non-player.

In any event, the ending was as successful as the previous delivery. We regret that the pictures are missing, but the pictures we have document the first phase. If I get my hands on a functioning cable there will be more photos.

Immediate response.

help im a bug borrows Peter Harmon's absurdly messy desk in order to hastily write his call to a duel - which he naturally sends to Peter rather than its ultimate recipient. (The remaining photos will be added if I get my hands on a functioning cable; until then this is the end.)
