After October 2nd fans who had sent in letters to Mark Meltzer's P.O. Box began to receive telegrams, delivered in person by Speedy Brothers employees riding old-style bicycles. This was the third such promotional mailing, after the mailing of child-like drawings from the Lunchbox Puzzle and the vinyl records of "Rise, Rapture, Rise."

Fans who received a telegram began to receive packages one day later. These packages contained a copy of Mark Meltzer's letter to his contacts, as seen on the Something in the Sea website, and samples of splicer masks that will appear in BioShock 2.
