Hi, friend. Very bad luck on my end. My virus that makes blackouts happen...

Also results in knockouts. I do not know how it is determined, the knockout or the blackout, but this was my first knockout. With a knockout, I do not move. The group did not know this since all my other virus problems were a blackout and I was able to follow at phase end

This happened on phase 52. I awoke to a room by myself. The knockout happened earlier I the phase, while I was asleep. No exits had been made or discussed. I took a guess and was incorrect. Sadly, the room I entered was strange and teleported me to the past as well. Posting from mobile, I will describe said room when get to a computer.

So where exactly is the group, did you get separated last phase or a few phases ago?

After you left we found a room description with a southern door that was sealed. We believed it to be the location of a guardian. Someone was supposed to try and use the sword on the door, in private, but no update was ever posted. They may have head back to that room.

I do have to ask more about your red room friend. I am somewhat concerned, as I may be the first person you have come across.

My note taking and map making has been lacking since Boone had been doing a wonderful job of both. If I recall correctly, you were red roomed in 5230.

We moved East to 2830 of the future, this is where the sealed door is directly to the south.

We moved once again to the East and found a beast guarding a chest. At least two people needed to compete in a posting challenge. We were discussing having Walton and I take part to get the chest. The loser (or worst loser should multiple people play) would die. I was knocked out (instead of blacked out) and I woke up Phase 53 alone. I moved East, as we had come from the West. There was no sign of my group.

East to Phase 54...

Phase 54: 4544. The room was also very confusing.

The flavor had me walk through a portal of some kind to a room. It had 3 exits. The North exit had the words "South" above it, The Southern exit had the word "North" above it, and the third exit had "East" above it. I went with "East"

It took me to 9859* of the PAST and I see Rhea's body at the foot of the glowing red staircase with a sealed door on top. This is phase 55. I blackout/knockout as I do every 3 phases. It does not matter the type, as there is no one in my group to follow. I exited South at the end of 56, and here I am.

didn't you have one of the walkies Lee?

It was passed off before the virus hit me, as Boone and Mark wanted to speak with Marek.

My original intention was to head to this room, teleport to the future as this is unexplored, then head south to 5730 Future to the White shuttle. Based on it's positioning, I was confident the white shuttle would take me to the SW, where Kristoff and his group are. I wanted to find people, anyone, and with the time jump and the awkward room, I did not want to backtrack through there in hopes of finding boone and company. Those awkwardly marked doors were confusing.

and you wouldn't have a key either, would you?

Sadly, no

I am still waiting on an update. What came of this for you, friend?

Tyrese @ 27/5/2013 3:19

Well, what do you want to do now?

I did not know there was unexplored area to the East. The map did not indicate this. It is nice to communicate with someone, I shall follow.

So, how do your blackouts/knockouts work again, every 3 phases and it leaves you incapable of posting, following and moving? Just so I know as we move along.

Every 3. I am due for another one at some point next phase. I am not sure if it is explicit in the flavor (or if one is posted), but I am capable of following during a blackout. I will not move if it is a knockout. It took many phases for a knockout to happen that I didn't even know it could happen.
