Can't see anything overtly suspicious about it, will take a closer look later when I get the chance.


There is code in the beginning. Wish you could copy and paste stuff like this into a translator Laughing

I translated it, its binary, it stands for this

The "b" is changed for a 2 when you put it on the translator.

This send you to this image in imgur

Scanned it, it gave me this code

http://bit.ly/2aShyN1

It's a google doc file. Everything is in Hex code. It's gonna take me a while to translate it.

The Google doc is actually a form for you to submit. There is a free form text box in response to "What do you want to see in our tribute?" Nothing tied it to my original application form I submitted.

Um... There's been a countdown on the Spectacular Organic twitter, and the most recent one, quoted was:

Its when they pick the winner of the competition where they will fly that person to Canada and board them for a week, feeding them GM breakfast for the full time.

I can assume whoever wins will either be made the Tribute or even indoctrinated in possible. But who knows?

Might just be another clue, like when the winenr gets the conformation there will be a link, and that leads further down this rabbit hole.

Something weird is definitely going on with that contest though. It requires way to much personal info to be something as innocent as a bloody week vacation in Canada.

Ask me? The form is meant to weed out the people "unfit" either to be indoctrinated or the most eligible candidate for sacrifice.


As for the google doc with the form to submit? I think that might be more evidence to the sacrifice theory for the contest. That google doc is probably for actual cult members to specify what they would like to see.

Just open pondering of course.

That form is crazy,

It could be weeding out the fit - or the weakest. They could be looking for someone with XXX as they know their juice will 'cure' it.

Or someone with no dependants who won't be missed.

Not many companies choose the last bank holiday of the year to run large marketing programmes.

Does anyone have a hint as to what time the draw will happen?

Rammer.

Tommarow.

All I can think is that it won't matter until an email or video is posted. The announcement will likely be very public on the channel. Let's be honest, the form is definitely a weed out system, but for what is unspecific.

Got my submission in last night after a long-ish while of not following anything that was going on because of school xD Hopefully a real person who shares the name of the made up name I submitted isn't kidnapped by an organic food cult Hopefully I did it right 'cause I didn't get a reply to it yet. Also rather anxious to see what happens next since SpecOrg seems to have been fairly quiet.

Well, THAT was a thing. What are the odds that their "viral marketing" is true on a scale of 1 to BS?

I'm pretty sure there's something hidden in this video, but I'll be danged if I've got the tools with me where I am to find it. Anyone see anything weird in any of the frames?
