My mail came in about 4 hours ago. IP 81.199.148.178 Gilat Satcom

Using whatismyipaddress.com I get the satellite provider, however it does give me a location: Maiduguri which is about 100 miles from N'Djamena.

Our boy is on his way!

Shouldn't there soon be a 5imba S4fari Camp in Abeche with this many travellers going there? Laughing

Brilliant work guys, let's see how long D4n will hang alongside Abeche's famous Hospital Road with an actual Internet cafe and all Laughing

He mentioned being in the Sudan with all of the fighting and famine in his scam format. How funny is it that he is actually going to be where he said he was? Laughing

It will be halarious... Or at least to me. I am sure D4n will be laughing on the inside.

Good work!
Am I correct that he plans to go to D'Jamena and get on the domestic flight to Abeche? Did you tell him to buy a one-way ticket only, as he doesn't have to spent more money than necessary and the church will take care of everything. (as long as he can show the receipts)
If he doesn't get the flight he might as well find a driver and travel by car...

Anyway, I really hope he makes it to Abeche... Thumbs up

Once he arrives in and before he starts to become discouraged it would be good to find out the route he took.

Domestic flight to Maiduguri?
Bus across the border(s) to N'Djamena?
Domestic flight to Abeche?

Or maybe he will just cross the lake. Lots of ways to sneak in I expect to avoid immigration and customs. He may be checking out his return trip since he will not want to take all that cash on the plane especially with the levels of security on international flights.

Cool

Abeche is a relative paradise to Sudan, though Chad is pretty bleak. Chad has a lot of problems, but Sudan..... I think the mission may have had to head into Sudan. Sudan could well gobble up Dan.

Take a look at Abeche with google earth! Hahahahaah!

Nice to hear he is in transit! Thumbs up

I mentioned one of my character is going to Abeche with a cheque, as part of the mission. SSA, I will play that exactly as you want, so let me know how you would like me to handle it. He has not written anybody here (three characters).

If we can get him to abeche, we can get to darfur.

Great work guys, my 1st Safari..I'm so excited!!!!! Very Happy

Posted: Mon Dec 01, 2008 11:19 pm

Safaris are so much fun. I only hope our lad enjoys it as much we do.

Posted: Mon Dec 01, 2008 11:52 pm

i'm sure he'll enjoy it more when he's there for christmas Laughing

Perhaps we can get him to erect a cross in honour of Jesus' birth. The locals wouldn't mind, would they?

Just to show my support I made use of google maps on my phone lying here in my comfy bed with a hot water bottle on a winters night. I looked at Abeche (bigger than I thought), and such a simple journey from N'djamena, and it seems just so easy to hop the border into Sudan - no checkpoint I could see anyway...but I am tucked up in bed a zillion miles away Smile

I expect Dan would happily swap places in a few days time Smile

Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2008 2:05 am

No word from our lad yet. I got an email from him around 3:00 am my time (GMT+7) and he has been quiet the rest of the day. Looking forward to pulling his IP tomorrow and seeing Abeche come up. Laughing

Since I believe the little turd is really going to do this and has shown the initiative to actually go through with the dumbest mistake he has ever made, we need to see where we can get him next. I'd like to take him as far as possible but not far enough to stumble back into a place where he could be comfortable.

Ideally I can get him to Adre which is right on the border of Sudan and Chad. It's literally 400 meters from the edge of town as I recall. The border is actually a dried up river bed. I think his final resting place could be a little town called Geneina which I think is no more than 30 miles over the border into Sudan. From there, he can take this plane home:

Yeah that's what's left of their airport, perhaps the money can be in a vault under the runway, somewhere.

If you think a phone call would help get him chasing his dream further away from home, then let me know. Assuming he has his cell with him. There's something about the voice of a broken yet hopeful mugu that warms my blackened heart.

Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2008 2:19 am

I'll keep that in mind and appreciate the offer. Bear in mind we've managed to do this without a single phone call so far but if that's what it takes to get him further up a dried river bed without a paddle, I'll definitely take you up on that offer.

Right now I'm playing this by ear. My plan I put together at work was to get him to Abeche and then something comes up where the missionary can't meet him in Abeche but tells him where the money is and tells him the combination to the vault. It's at the undisclosed location and he can go ahead and get it. Of course he won't know the area around Adre/Geniena but I'm sure a friendly driver can help guide him there, for a price. Laughing

Maybe the guy in the pic above.....

Tell Dan he needs to blend in for extra security and so travel by donkey is preferable. Laughing

When we get him to Darfur can I start the ethics thread Twisted Evil

quietly sliping away, muahhhhh

Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2008 3:13 am

It wouldn't be a good safari without an ethics thread. I mean, I've never done anything to start one of those, until now possibly. Laughing

I'm sure the first ladhugger should be around any minute now...

I was just thinking about Dan. I havent heard from him today at all. Sorta sad. Do you think hes thinking about me?

Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2008 3:15 am

I'm sure he's thinking about money, not you. Sorry nothing personal, just scamming. Laughing

Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2008 3:24 am

JBD is whistling while he waits for the first lad hugger to come screamin into the thread Rolling Eyes

Posted: Tue Dec 02, 2008 3:28 am

Maybe it's because I'm not an unspeakable bastard pig like YW. Perhaps I come across as far more caring person. Then again this thread has about 140 more pages of fun before we catch up to the other one. I'm sure a lad hugger will be along soon.

Trying not to start my own ethics debate here.
