And what's the ettiquite for this, anyway?

Brute force

I didn't think it was such a loaded term... I've used it a couple of times and hope I haven't been misread. To me it just means deciphering something by going through every option possible, rather than analysing the evidence and coming to an elegant, step by step, logical solution.

Power over intellect.

A pretty good overall discussion of brute force hacking can be found here

I've been following this from the start and it seems very simple but fun nonetheless. I'm thinking of it seperately from LG15 since I see nothing to suggest it's related at all. Seems to be a spinoff or fanfic style game/story and I doubt there's much depth to it but you never know. Right now I'm enjoying any kind of ARG-ness that's coming forward.

There have been other clues that we've discussed on the Cassieiswatching forum...

The first video gave us the livejournal address and, if you look in the profile for that lj, there's a screenshot from the first film with a letter "S" kind of hidden in the top right corner.

The second video yielded the binary 'T'.

This third clue I expect will give another letter? or spell out a sentance or something, I assume. But right now, I think we're letter collecting.

From the second video that the girl posted about the guy missing, she said his stuff was gone so she thinks he ran away, which would explain the change in location from LA to Texas and I'm guessing they'll turn up somewhere new next.

I guess my question was really "should this be moved to the LG15/Cassie" forum with all the other LG15-related stuff?"

And, hollabackmonkey, I noticed this:

Also, I'm redheaddiva--or rather, my dog is. Long story. Basically, that's my youtube account, and I was originally thinking I could post a video reply, until I remembered that my videocamera won't talk to my computer for some reason (and I am somewhat technologically retarded). So I just took my digicam to the park when I went with my dog this morning, and then I thought about the term "fetch" in the tags and how it would be funny if it was my dog playing/posting rather than me...


And now there is a "redheaddiva" posting here on UF.

As I'm sure you're aware, having read the TOS, which I'm certain you've done, since you electronically signed your agreement to comply with it when you registered for an account here, it is against the TOS to post here under multiple accounts.

For your reference:

Terms of Service wrote:
Users of the Unfiction forums, whether registered or guest, are not to post under more than one identity. If you already have a registered account, do not register another (forgotten forum nicknames can be found - please contact a forum administrator for assistance).


So, if it is you posting from both of those accounts, I suggest that you choose one and then contact an administrator at your earliest convenience to have the other deleted. Smile

Phaedra...um, I think that's what she meant...I'm confused Embarassed .
And thanks for pointing that out, I'd completely forgotten about that rule!

Hmmm....I too think they just used this as a springboard. As far as we know no other ref. to Cassie has been made, and the accounts say nothing about Cassie. I'd leave this here until we know for sure...but whatever you think is best is good to. I'm glad you asked, I would have posted it over there, but I didn't feel comfortable about it, seeing as it stopped even being in the same state and all....

AND....on that note, here's a link to the next clues, courtesy of jackie! Perhaps we should all get together and chat about this?

Hello, I just joined these forums. Sorry, I don't know the ettiquite for ARGs this is really my first one I'm actually getting involved in. And yeah, I agree, I don't think this really has anything to do with LG15 or CiW but what do I know. But sorry it took so long for me to get those uploaded and such, was a busy day yesterday.

Yeah, I was wondering how to delete my old account now that I made the switch--I thought I could do it myself, but found that I couldn't. Thanks! Who's an admin that I can go to? Very Happy

So far, the only thing connecting this to LG15 and CiW is the launch point. Nothing related storywise. Of course, there really isn't a story as of yet.....

New sound file at his live journal sight.
http://ihaveseenhim.livejournal.com/

I need you all to help me
he has commited a crime
he must be caught
I must follow him
whevere he runs to
until he is found and put away
I apologize for my cryptic clues
but i cannot really more often
I must make sure he knows nothing of this
there will be more information eventually

There is some giberish near the begining of the sound file.
I guess the message means we gotta wait for more clues......
