I don't know if this really means anything but it might help. It's at least something better than the turn back messages.

No matter what you type in after www.murderinwillowcove.com you will get the same response. You can type in your own name and it will say "you're off track."

Where did they announce that? Makes sense though.

Read the post, only one that had something different. Everything else, including many of the cards gave one of the two messages of "private property" or "nothing to see here."

Was the snarky comment to end the post really necessary?

Yes, but saying " No matter what you type..." wasn't correct. And no it was not, just too cranky in the morning

I think the websites mean nothing to be honest. I think the guttman residence reminds me of the computer game zork...if you don't know what zork is...please quit now. Lol.

Haha YES! I wish it was like zork, it'd be much easier. The site will probably be very slow to develop and provide new clues

Getting scans of all the code card backs and putting them together is probably the only way to go right now

Which code cards have you been using to get the newspaper together? I haven't seen any that seem to make a newspaper.

I guess now it makes sense that the murder isn't for 8 more days

Deceased.
Found murdered in his place of business on the morning
of July 18, 2012.

Its obvious now, but my initial guess was right- Topps is doing this as a "murder in real time."


So, on July 18th, someone will find Lennie dead in his bowling alley, and we will get to see how the townspeople react by their twitter handles and such. Should be pretty fun. That newspaper article is going to be step one...but trust me, I assume there are like 1,000 more steps to get this thing solved.
