OMG!!!
WOW, how totally twisted. Shocked

When you said it was going to get darker you weren't just whistlin' Dixie, as they say here in the States!! Poor Ingrid, he must have needed a dozen pairs of clean shorts by now. I wonder if he has had any contact with the lads?? Any indication of that? A perusal of the website would lead one to believe that they are not in communication with each other. I'll bet the two travelers are wishing they had stayed home and watched the World Cup, or sat naked on a nest of fire ants, or something!

(The necrophilia thing reminds me of wonderfully sick joke I'll post in the joke thread sometime.)

Interesting to imagine the two Lost Boys now. To mix my fictional allusions, I'll bet they wish they could tap their heels together and say "There's no place like home." right about now!

Carry on!

@agi: Robert can't die now, or probably ever. He's sort of the undead. Maybe he should have been named Damien.

"Ingrid" probably fears that Psycho Bob will show up at his Internet Cafe. Very Happy

Lost, just lost for words

Shocked

Is he going to be arrested, kill himself, just totally sod off ..... what ?????

Anyone else, like me, checking this one out first & foremost ? Before I open my real life email FFS !!! YW you got us hooked big time Mr. Green

@puq Nawwww, I never check this thread or the safari website. (Not!) Kinda crazy, isn't it? Also, I had to post below you because of the similarity of our names and the yin/yang thing of our avatars. Cosmic, huh?? Smile

@ puq and pug

Maybe you guys can hook up and have some really ugly babies Laughing

Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2006 2:55 am

Yeah - call your firstborn Fug

YW: One of the excuses you might be able to use for being selectively/randomly unavailable for phone calls is the havoc the character wreaked in camp. Maybe during his murder spree he machete'd his charger, tipped a generator over, used the next-to-last fuel can setting corpses on fire.... But now, during intermittent bouts of non-booze-and-meds relative sanity, he's dazedly trying to track down everyone else's mobiles and cannibalizing their batteries/chargers and such. Just so happens that every time he manages to get his phone/laptop powered up, you're at home. Cool

Brilliant bait, btw. It's even better than mugu-LARP - it's an epistolary/reality-media masterpiece! Thanks for all the entertainment you've provided - while doing good work, besides.

(Edited for grammar.)

I think Robert has been using his satellite dish as a makeshift BBQ - well, with all that fresh meat lying around he'd be a fool not to.

I bet Mr. Ingrid is wondering if "This is the end, the end, my friend, the end" for his two flunkies! Laughing

M-m-max

"pumped full of DNA" that is just wrong . . . but God I love it.

YW,
Two lads in Sudan and now your entire party in the jungle. You scare me Razz

Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2006 7:02 am

oh man this is great. I just got done reading the rest of everything I missed while I was on vacation.

I thik it is absolutely hilarious that you turned your guy into a murderer and a necrofeliac. and it is even better that ingrid seems to beleive every word of it.

It would be great if you recorded the next few telephone conversations. pm me if you would like to know an easy way to record skype calls with windows sound recorder.

Mr. Ingred, "This is totlly out of control."

I have the strangest feeling that he hasn't seen anything yet..

Congrats YW. I think you just broke the "Scared Mugu" meter.

Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2006 9:24 am

Okay, so you went over the top two days ago and they all followed you. Whereto today?

Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2006 12:19 pm

I think that things are coming to a close here. I am meeting Odeke at midnight in Ruhija. He seems a bit pissed that I cannot shake the others in the camp, which I told him are quite alive and that the story Ingrid told him about me killing everyone was a ridiculous lie.

Midnight is not only the only way that I can possibly lose my other camp mates but it is also the only time that I can get home from work to make the next phone call. I have no idea where this can go from here but I will try to think of something while at work to today. He knows that the money is "right up the hill" from the town. Maybe I can get him to go just a little bit further, this time into the actual jungle itself.

Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2006 1:39 pm

YW, don't worry if you can't take it any further - this is one we'll be chuckling about for ages to come.

The talk about a film of this had me thinking - I'd like to do it (if I could) as a contrast between what the Lad(s) thought was happening and what YW was dreaming up. All the ideas floating around the board would be presented as their own scenes, quite independent of YW's final version.

Then there's the Blair Witch ending - in which the panicked Lads reach the site of the jungle camp, and find that it's all true! We end on their screams of terror as Doc Fitzwell emerges from the jungle...

Cut to the Doc and his quite alive colleagues as they watch the film at home. "You always were a complete bastard, Bob!"

@YW: You could try the following: Tell the lad, that you suddenly got the opportunity to get away from the area, when an old friend of you unexpectedly showed up and offered you a ride. You took the money with you and now you are on the way to another area of Uganda, where this friend of you is living. Tell him to follow you there, so that you can hand over the money to him.

I am sure that this person was as bad as you say but killing him was wrong. I can hardly believe it. Please do not do that again.

BWAHHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!

Funniest request ever!

I wish there was some way we could find out what poor ol' Bernard had to do to get himself back home, and what will do when he finally realizes his date has stood him up. Can you imagine the scene when and if the three lads finally get together again? Bernard will be the most pissed of all, having been left penniless in the middle of nowhere, with no passport! (But officer, a gorilla robbed me !! Really!! I'm here with a research expedition!)

Maybe you could change your tone a little with Ingrid and tell him how worried you are about his boys now? Maybe tell him that you went to meet John and give him the $$ and you found that it had already been dug up and taken?

Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2006 2:22 pm

Panic & Flee! They're on to you but you've eluded them so far. Grab the money and head back to Kampala in a stolen jeep. Tell the lad to meet you there so that he can help you get the money over to Greece. Of course you will need to offer him a share of the money as a reward, but you wont tell Ingrid the same story so the lad can keep his share.

Then go silent for a few days .... disappear without a trace

Fake a news article of your capture and incarceration for theft and murder .... but the money is still missing .....

If the money were stolen, Psycho Bob could go on another maniacal rampage. If he tells Ingrid heads will roll again, he could warn O. & B., and they could flee. Oh, the fear!

Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2006 3:27 pm

That little bitch Ingrid won't write to me anymore, even after I tried to send him some money. Evil or Very Mad

Posted: Mon Jun 19, 2006 3:39 pm

Yeah, after that last e-mail I thought Ingrid might be gone...such a little wussy boi... The entire story shifts to Odeke and what he is willing to do for you. I agree that if you could keep Odeke on the hook that would be just awesome. However, if it ends tonight it still qualifies as the most over-the-top bait seen in these parts. And being a global community, these is big parts.

YW, it doesn't matter. You've got two lads stranded in a foreign country and the only feasible and safe way back is by air. I'm sure they'll be some suffering and wailing going on back home to raise the money. If they do manage to get back, they're going to kill Ingrid. The bait could end right now and everyone would give you a slap on the back.

419 emails: free
Skype phone calls: $30.00
Having 4 lads stranded in a country other than their own without any money: Priceless!!!
