great information. More names.
Great job!
Just FYI, Undie is back online over in the DU lounge. He's posted again to that "I don't want to die" thread. Nothing really noteworthy, but I wanted to mention that he's over there right now.

I've been thinking, could you even IMAGINE trying to follow a thread like ours here with a format like DU has? It would be almost impossible, with the posts all out of order!
impossible to follow the threads.
I don't think so. At least for me and a lot of others (Speed included) it wasn't. We haven't given up the hunt. We haven't said, "Everything's legit, let's move on." No. We took the information Speed relayed with a big grain of salt. And we didn't rely on just that phone call to say things about the checks, for example. And even granting, hypothetically, all that Andy said to Speed, that does not mean that it still isn't a scam.
The fire has not been extinguished.
The DU format makes my head start spinning.
Here's what helps me on those DU threads: the post numbers on the right side. Yesterday I left off at 58. So today I scan down the list to see what is numerically later than 58 but listed above 58. Those are new. Then I go below 58 on the list and read all of those.
Look at the times of his 2 posts today, and the times of the posts he responded to. I think it's pretty obvious he's trying to "kick" his own thread back to the top every so often.
Oh, I think we've got your "essence" down pretty well, Undie. It's the "captured" part we're working on.
Oh my God. That Andy monologue was the WORST! I guess he really doesn't know anything about being a man. Who would be so self-centered enough to put something like that up on the Internet?
That's probably the best animated gif ever.
Andy sure does have his maudlin rue routine down pat. He sounds like a character from "One Life To Live".
"Who would be so self-centered enough to put something like that up on the Internet?"
The same person who puts up intimate details of his recent medical history on the internet for all the world to see.
"Undie, you're out of your element!"
New mark... never know when I'm going to be able to read again this weekend...
What is it that Scrooge says when the charity men approach him, "Well, if they are going to die then they should go ahead and do it and decrease the surplus population."
I'm watching the hunt and the overall dampening effect those calls had on the discussion was very noticable even though some in the thick of the hunt, those in the trenches may not have been affected.
Maybe it should have had an effect on them too. We'll see.
Andy's calling Speed_Addiction and Scott was a very good move if this is a scam, or, if it is not a scam.
It's hard to keep things moving when you can't get any info. That doesn't mean people aren't looking...
Well, we're still here several days after that phone call, and about 3 thousand posts beyond that.
Most of us who have been "hunting" since the start of this thing are still gathering info, updating the timeline, creating other lists, etc.
