Right, an ARG with seamonsters and HP Lovecraft? Seems perfectly tailored to just about the entire ARG community. Lurker South African reporting for duty. This game has officialy gone international.

Although I doubt I'm gonna receive any packages

October

This is just idle very-very-spec, but I was re-reading the "About Me" page. I was thinking that "The City" might be "The City of the Dead" (Bast, and all), or some dream city of sorts. However, might not The City be L.A.?

/me remembers the left and right hand ILB keyboard puzzle... perhaps the story is really a code for something? If the pieces of the pictures can fit together, perhaps the story creates a path, or some cypher?

also, is there a significance to the date for the Dilbert comic? Because the immediate thing that jumped out at me was... well, it's my birth day Cool

Can I be very obvious and mention that the symbol on the back of the coin is Lovecraft's sigil for the Elder Gods? Depending on how far you're reading into the mythos and who's writing it could mean:"Elder Gods! Run! Go insane!" or provide sanctuary against the Great Old Ones (and thus have a protective connotation)

Also, Providence RI is mentioned a helluva lot in Lovecraft. Can't speak with any authority, but a quick Google search should clear it up.

A first attempt at putting all the watercolor images together.

I'm not sure about LouMac's image's position (top middle), but I do think he scanned it up-side-down...

GoodChild

The picture of the statue (from moleculaar's bundle) looks like St. George slaying the dragon

EDIT:

Also, The so far assembled watercolor reminds me of Queen's News of the World album cover that scared me to death when i was a child.

November 30th is the end of Hurricane season, but that's almost certainly completely irrevelant, and was merely a way of me making this less awkward and stuff. SO ANYWAY >_>;

I got an ARGN notice about this, and it seemed interesting, but I'm much too stupid to actually figure out, you know, what I actually have to do to get in this thingy. It's my first one D: I'm sorry if this is completely stupid or obvious or something D:
