I'm told this is where I should ask about this, but if anyone sees this guy around, I'll pay handsomely for information leading to him.

Don't kill him. Or I'll kill you.

Thanks.

It looks like a man with a cadaverous body. It has been observed in turbulent homes. It's said that anyone who sees its true form will die instantly.

I don't know what happened to the morning. I meant to give an update earlier and it's - oof, it's been busy. Let's cut to the chase: we've got network issues.

We ran diagnostics on all the DOA equipment and there are no physical issues. The notifications list sent out yesterday was false - I believe everyone was accounted for (and is presumably still accounted for, please let me know otherwise). Scanning shows no standard viruses but there's something bleeding into the comms scrambling codes and throwing down firewalls. All this is strictly affecting Outlander communications, and while we've had issues with cybersecurity in the form of released history searches and faulty filters, we can all probably agree that yesterday's list felt like a personal attack.

We suspect the influx of chain letters received the other day is part of all this too. I'll be honest: I'm not sure they're supposed to be a joke, or an omen.

If you're experiencing any additional issues, please report them here. We're trying to track everything to find a source - and a potential culprit. Please be aware of any suspicious e-mails, messages, and links sent your way. If you're not sure about something, ask.

The tech division here at the DOA isn't what it used to be, so if anyone's got experience with online programming/security/hacking/literally anything beyond Googling, come see us. If anyone's got an in with techno-pagan covens, reach out. We don't want what happened yesterday to become a norm. The risk of cardiac arrest will sky-rocket.
