I don't think this is waiting to start. In the main page, tucked sorta hidden behind the Google AdSense ad, are the words "Detective Microphone Binaural Surveillence Private Investigator Missing Undercover Spy" ... and in the source code for the page is the comment "<!-- Search Google -->". Searching Google on that whole string (after you fix the spelling error) leads to a bunch of stuff about ... alien abduction?

The first link is The Controllers - A New Hypothesis of Alien Abduction, with a number of links on the first page pointing towards this theory.

EWP: The Contact page just has "Microphone Binaural Spy equipment stealth"; the "Leads" page (named 'Nowhere' incidentally) has that same string in its meta keywords.

EATF: The "Search Google" apparently belongs to another google ad, although I don't SEE that ad on the page.

On the PDA page...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Zoom in until you can see the non binary message. ZOOM IN on the shockway until you can see it. Enter that the login and you should be in. Took me a while to figure it out to, and that was WITH the clue from from Daveman424. Thanks Dave

I think this site "rents" space to google ads. As a source of income. Instead of the generic random sampling, the site owner has asked for related ads to run on his site. Hence the ads are all related to abduction (aka Kidnapping), background checks, fraud investigation, private investigators, etc. I'm not a code monkey... but it would seem to be that in order to present the ads most related to the site there would be a need to Search Google for the related ads. The "search google" is therefore attached to ALL the ads and not a hidden one.

I agree completely Magestaff. There's really not much going on here for now.

I would suggest that we all watch out for new players like AutomaticGirl who post out-of-game on the in-game forums. I sent her a PM asking her to refrain from postign about FindAraya beign an ARG on the games forums and directed her back here for such posts. Anyone else who sees such behavior, I reccommend you do it too. These PM are clearly respecting that unfiction is an out of game board so they created their own in-game boards... let's show them the same courtesy.

I agree. It is just common decency to not peek behind the PM's curtains.

Laughing truly! The alien abduction information does seem like a fascinating read though...

can somebody please tell me where they got the password for the PDA. It may be obvious for some but I really don't know what I'm looking for.

Thanks for the help.

Signed up, looks good thus far.

Looks like a little typo with the email

in the Get in Touch section, the email is jamespearsono475SPLAThotmail.com

in the PDA password section, it is jamespearson0475SPLAThotmail.com

Important note, it seems like the 2nd email is the "real" one.

Looks good so far, signed up with my UF name. I've been floating around aimlessly since the Carer, this should give me something to do with my time. Very Happy

Woot! I'm in! Hopefully it lasts a bit longer than the Carer, and hopefully it doesnt end prematurely like COD. Laughing

It's really just a bit of a pass-time for me while Perplex City is quiet. It looks like it could be very fun though. Maybe Sable+Shuck minus the devil and £10,946!
