Potential ARG: Nip/Tuck: The Carver's MySpace www.myspace.com/thecarver
This has great ARG and contest potential. It's officially sanctioned, I just saw a flicker ad for it after this week's episode. I think any other Nip/Tuck fans could have a field day with this-- and you know we'll be the first to figure out who it is.

It certainly smells kinda funny... so I sent an e-mail... let's see where this goes, shall we?
I'm loving the evil thing, I must admit.

Last night was my first time watching Nip/Tuck, because last week on the radio they were talking about the Carver and that kind of grabbed my interest.
After last night's episode when they played the clip for his Myspace, I jumped out of bed thinking "ARG! ARG!" and ran to my computer to go look, especially since just yesterday some friends and I were talking about what a Myspace-based ARG would entail. I was going to post a topic about this but I thought everyone would think I was crazy.
Glad I'm not the only one who thought about this!

God, I wish I had more time to spend on this, but Finals are eating my life. I know something is overlayed over the picture at the beginning and middle of the QT movie, but I can't for the life of me get it to stop at the right time. My computer is too lame to run a big, good movie program I could run it through, but if someone could check it out, that would rock.

The video has changed... I wonder if it will change every other day? Curious.
Actually, after reading some more about it, I think this is all a gimic leading to the season finale on Dec. 20th.

I'm pretty sure I know who the Carver is after watching that video.

ok, so i lied... i am a little bit into it. I don't watch the show though, so i am not really sure how much help i could be. Has anyone noticed/been able to do anything with the random images of people in the videos? there is one where in the middle, there is an upside down face {looks to be saying help?}. the very first one at the end is a plus sign shape of some sort. if i wasn't on my way to work, i'd start messing with them. They aren't accidents, i'm pretty sure...

I've been hearing a lot about the carver from Nip/tuck fans. I don't watch it, but when I saw the commercial for the myspace carver it sure did get me interested.

I think they have spent too much time making Quinten look like the carver for him to actually be it.
Matt might be screwed up in the head, but not tht screwed up, i'm willing to wager.
I think I'll place my chips on Meryl, yeah the guy we almost forgot about. the "other surgeon" and the one who not only knew sean and christian personally, but also had a developing obsession with beauty last we saw him.

it wasn't an arg, but there were puzzles involved - just no one here was working on them, and the answer was given no matter what. but yes, it is over.... can be moved to like dead stuff or something?{personally i don't think it merits a lock per se...}
