[.HACK][TRAILHEAD] .hack//SOMETHING...

This was posted in another forum and I thought it might do a little better [or at least get more people on the trail] over here.

Click on the .hack// ARG:
http://www.forum.immersionunlimited.com/viewforum.php?f=5

Here is the site itself:

I may just not be observant enough, but I can't see the connection between the two sites linked in these two threads (save each thread being labeled as a .hack//XXX). I'm unlocking this for now...let me know if they are indeed the same thing!

It looks like the site mentioned in this thread is not related to the other thread's site.

This new site looks to be the home of a .hack ARG.

Thanks, Space Bass. I didn't think they are related, because www.hiddenforbiddenholyground.com wasn't ever mentioned in the IU thread. If it was, I completely missed it then.

Nah, so far they're unrelated. I guess Steve just saw the ".hack" part and figured they were the same thing. It was an honest mistake.

... Anywho, that Flash scared the crap outta me the first time. Laughing

Yes, I am a dork. Apologies. Sorry about the lock.

My only question then, is why this thread is entitled .hack//SOMETHING. I may not be the most observant guy in the world, but i don't see that anywhere on this comcast site.

Anyway, carry on. Lock? What Lock? This thread was never locked.

I just put the "SOMETHING" because in ".hack//SIGN" after the slahes is all in capitals. I don't think there is an official name yet, hence the "something".

Ooh the site has changed the title of the page is now:

Of all the places to vent, where would she go to be heard when speaking of the world?


And the flash has been reprogrammed.

Well, actually, I think it's .hack//FRAGMENTED_TWILIGHT, though that could just be a clue/puzzle/something.

Well, I'm not really much of a fan of the .hack series, but I've seen .hack//SIGN a few times, and aren't there message boards the players post on? That would fit in with that "Bo@rd." thing that was thrown in at the end of the email, wouldn't it? Just spec, but maybe we're supposed to find them.

Hmm, I just saw this page for the first time a few moments ago. How has it changed? I didn't notice the title about 20 minutes ago, was it added that recently? Also, it seems the the wrods .hack//fragmented_twilight were found in the swf file. Just think aloud~

There is someone, whom I believe, has a problem with my world. the world.

Why don't you go talk to them?
