Did anyone else notice the numbers that flashed over the screen during the first video. There is a momentary matrix like code. After seeing it 3-4 times I realized that there are numbers that are bolder and brighter than the rest. I got some of the sequence, but I can't make out the ones that go over her face. Does anyone else have the sight or right tool to see it?

The ones I could make out, I believe go like this:

Quote:
13 21 15 9_ __ 8_ 13 35 84


However, I have bad eyesight so this may not be exactly right.

edit- actually I think there are multiple number lines in the different codes.

Edit: changed spoiler to quote - Rowan

MySpace Site
buuut it's blank

There is a myspace registered at http://www.myspace.com/bristelgoodman but it's empty for the most part. But the last login day from the owner was December 11th, so figured it may come into play in this game at some point? I'll keep an eye on it

OK, for some reason that REALLY creeps me out.

The whole serial killer thing... through the Internet... anonymous strangers wanting to meet you and... do stuff... weirds me out.

I love it! I'll definitely be following this one.

OK, did a bit of work-

http://www.whois.ws/whois-com/ip-address/bristelgoodman.com/
http://www.whois.ws/whois-ip/216.227.212.182/

Seems eddie is located in La Habra, CA.

ETA: Point taken, Catherwood... I guess that's the IP address of the hosting server and not Eddie, hmm?

Did some further digging:

http://www.zippyvideos.com/6203368755516036/bristelgoodman/

I can't get it to play... can anyone else see this? But, it says it was added 5 months ago. Found that interesting...

No, just his webhosting company and domain registrar is.

Awesome images, thanks! Here are some snippets transcribed:
οπως αυτά που
and
τι σας κάνουν να κάνετε
(your browser might not be displaying Greek)
Plugging those into Babelfish, I get
as those that
and
what you they make make
(which are literal but probably not natural translations)

Watching the first video again, and the chat conversation that is going on when she talks about dashing off to SoHo.
It seems our RhinoJock27 sent IronWheat a picture of the Smiley Face you see at the very start of the video..


Right before the "death scene" of the first video, when you see a fast moving camera in the hallway, the voice says "Your making a mistake"


Also someone might want to check this but the very end of the 1st video there is some music, the lyrics I can make out are:

"your all I need
Your all I want
Your all I ever need
Your everything to me"

Doh, that first scene is from the killers desk and computer. The smiley face, the desk, the stuff on it... clues?

Here's the desk (I stitched two shots together).


BTW: The killer also uses a Macintosh.

Can anyone enhance that image on the phone or whatever that is on the bottom left?

Just to save anyone else the trouble of extracting and analyzing FLV audio - all reversed sounds are simply copies of the linear audio. For instance, at the beginning of the goodman video the backmasking says "go out with you? I don't even know you".

ETA - other backmasking/pitchshifting includes a male voice saying the words from the chats on the screen "will you go out with me? no." and something like "rare condition" - can't remember if that's in the chat.

In any event - I LOVE THIS! This is what I would expect if Darren Aronofsky (pi/requiem), David Lynch and Oliver Stone teamed up to make an ARG.

Haven't yet transcriped the code flashes - my eyes are starting to hurt...

Although some might say it's early for speculation, what if the guy that everyone is calling the serial killer really isn't? Every time someone knocks on the door, you hear the voice saying, "Don't go. Don't go. Don't go." Repeatedly. What if he's trying to STOP people from getting killed?

Other than that, I'm going to look through these videos again. Let's see what I can find.

Sorry to double post, but I'm making a channel: #bgoodman

I feel like that discussion regarding what's happening here shouldn't simply be done in a general discussion area. We have a bunch of leads, and it's all about the strings we follow to get to the next step. Let's get this thing moving.

EDIT:

To keep from triple posting, I'm just going to add it to this.

The sign language letters were transcribed to be:

Code:
D O G E L T S O G L T


This could be an anagram for:

Code:
GET LOST GOLD


Maybe it's telling us to either find a person called 'Lost Gold' or find a webpage? Thoughts?

Quote:
MG,

thanks. don't know if i'm getting there. the numbers are not too good
then again it's probably just an elaborate stupid joke

it could generate more help

this probably helps not at all, but i thought i'd mention it anyway. the first thing that i noticed about these was that they look like a snippet of a repeating string of the same sequence of letters....sorry if it's been mentioned before, i'm trying to catch up.

also, i just got almost the exact same email from eddie that mountain girl did...nothing new there.
