• Quick note - the problem with Youtube videos not embedding on the forum appears to have been fixed, thanks to ZiprHead. If you do still see problems let me know.

Sent in my application today.

Well designing a test protocol would be simple. Put us in seprate rooms and start the testing.

Test what exactly? Who "sends", who "receives"? Please define more clearly what you intend to prove.

Have you tried this - putting "in seprate [sic] rooms" - before? What results did you obtain?
 
Neutralize,

I ask in all seriousness and without hostility: have you had your mental health assessed recently? There are several interpretations available for the experiences you claim to have had, and one of these is that some sort of mental imbalance causes you to believe that you're in constant communication with this sort. I'm sorry if that sounds hurtful, I'm not saying it's definitely the case, just that it could be. While that possibility remains open I'm reluctant to encourage what might be a dangerous delusion by offering advice as to how to verify it. And I'd suggest others here take that possibility seriously.
 
based on the evasive replies to direct questions & suggestions for protocols, coupled with some random "odd" replies, I am beginning to find this applicant suspect...wether it be a troll or mental health related remains to be seen. Out of curiousity Neutralize, you did have your application Notarized before you sent it in, correct?

Upon telling the Bishop of my church this( who is also a phsyciatrist) he asked my permission to have me sent to the phyciatric ward for an assesment. This was last year. I am very healthy and am on no medications. I suppose I could use him to notarize the application.
 
Again, evasion noted. A valid application is supposed to be notarized (as in by a notary public), in fact to obtain said application, you would have had to have read Randi's notice that they are currently not accepting applications at this time. I change my mind, you are a definite troll here to waste our time...

Does this mean you sent an unnotarized application to the JREF?

Would you mind posting what you did send to the JREF? Like, for example, your claim letter?
(As demanded here http://www.randi.org/research/challenge.html
(...) Rule #12: "EVERY APPLICANT MUST AGREE UPON WHAT WILL CONSTITUTE A CONCLUSION THAT, ON THE OCCASION OF THE FORMAL TEST, HE OR SHE DID OR DID NOT DEMONSTRATE THE CLAIMED ABILITY OR POWER. This form must be accompanied by a brief, two-paragraph description of what will constitute the demonstration."
 
i can tell you right now, last night before bed she had a tuna sandwich. Right now she is eating an english muffin, with ham, cheese, and eggs for breakfast.

Can (or has) she confirm(ed) this? And if so, why do you believe her if she is, as you say, 'not honest'?
 
As GzuzKryzt posted, what did you send to the JREF?

If it was an email, please post a copy of it.

Have you received a reply? If so, please post it.

That information will greatly help us advise you how to proceed with your claim.
 
you have to understand now that to keep a certain amount of spark in our relationship for the time being we consider ourself "partners" or "telepathy frineds".
Hmmm. "Friends with telepathy benefits"? Sounds like you have a good thing going.

Jesus Tap Dancing Christ already! Just do it on your own before you come down. If you're so sure it will work then why not do an exact replica of the test you will do when you come down here and take the challenge. That way you will know for certain that you can pass that particular test. Plenty of us have asked you to do this on your own and post your results but you continue to just ramble on about tuna fish and movies. Please tell us exactly why you won't do a preliminary test on your own.
 
Is there any chance that you could post a picture of this amazing lady?

I would like to be sure she actually exists. She doesn't "feel" real to me. I am not being mean, just want to make sure the rest of world can see your friend too. You can blur her face out if you want.

I've already made this suggestion -- it was ignored
(see my post #69)

Also ignored by 'neutralize' are the various specific questions asked here about the Application process itself.

From the OP ---
"I am claiming to have the ability to read my friends thoughts."

No, first and foremost, you are claiming to have "mailed my Application form" --- which we are skeptical of you actually having done so.

Let's get past this primary roadblock 1st, and then maybe move ahead ...
 
Will this be one application that is withdrawn before an official response? That is assuming that it even exists.

Are the two people close friends or only met about three times? My BS meter is trying to tell me something.
 
having worked with two self claimed "telepaths", the test protocol was to put them in different rooms where they could not see or hear each other, and then to give the "sender" random words from the dictionary, which the "reciever" would write down. each run was 20 words. Needless to say, nothing even approaching the odds of random chance was noted let alone signs of telepathy...

This is a fantastic way to test telepathy.

Results not even approaching the odds of random chance! Perhaps the senders were paranormal after all.
 
Does anyone else think that it's just a cat?

If it is, it seems to be remarkably capable of forum communication... for a cat. Oh well it hasn't exactly thoroughly addressed all the questions and concerns but nevertheless has managed to write some words and sentences that can be read and understood to some level.

After all, my cat usually only manages to write something like .li8uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr7yyyyyyuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuzsssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
 
OK, thanks for your support everyone. Tonight we have decided to conduct some "tests" I'll tell you all in advance I don't have this girls phone number, we don't see each other or talk to each other often. So I'm going on a walk and will be sure to exchange some thoughts.

In view of all the other posts you have made about your nightly 'communications', what relevance does a phone number have?

I have some very uncomfortable thoughts about where this particular thread is heading in the not too distant future. BoyPaj - I don't think it's a cat, but I also don't believe it's a female, live, human being.

Being charitable, I'd say the guy has a major first-time crush on someone independant and unattainable. Being cynical, I'd say he's having a laugh here and making it all up.
