It looks like something my mom used to let me use when I was young. It was this light and sound machine that used certain frequencies to bring you to certain brain wavelengths. Like for meditation or energy or incresed creativity.

Alright let's backtrack a minute and a couple pages until the new vid arrives. Anyway, does anyone remember Vincent? I mentioned him before with his post that he wanted to kill 138islate.

Now, after that I PM'd him asking him to calm down and that threatening to kill a person, no matter how anonymous could get him arrested. Tonight I got a post back from him.

Guys, Meet our new fellow IG character.

I dont help threatening anonymous thrill seekers.
My sense of justice is staying away from socially impaired beings that enjoy the tawdry thrill of," Hey I am watching you, now help me."
I have enough problems going to funerals at Arlington National cemetery every 2 days to do my duty.
I didnt mean to say I wanted to kill the person.
My killing days are behind me.If I was a single man, without family depending on me, I would care less about a vieled internet threat.
I am deeply sorry , I dont recall specifically saying I'd kill the person.
There are no monsters like
Leatherface, Freddy Kruger & Jason Vorhees, they are normal appearing, every day beings, with deep psychological autism.
Whoever 138islate is, they (I believe) are that.
I dont know why I came back here, I didnt expect to have still been registered.
Anyway, I was arbitrary.
I am sorry too, I sincerely apologize.
Now if you excuse me, I have to go clean my chainsaw (just joking)...
I am sorry. Take care, I hope things work out for this inquiry into who Tom is, and its not found that the context should be 'was'.
If you get my meaning.-Vincent


Alright, The cemetery is in VA. So he lives there (my guess) and has killed before but has reformed his ways. He works at the cemetery.

Now it's late and I don't get this last line.

I hope things work out for this inquiry into who Tom is, and it's not found that the context should be "was".

Do you get his meaning?

EDIT- Vincent was banned from the forums today as well, I PM'd Maria as to reasoning.

I think it's just a creative way of saying that he hopes Tom is not dead.

all i did was ask about a the video.....

Look I understand you think this is an internet game but I have no clue what is going on. I didn't post early cause I've been a little upset. I plan on releasing the rest of the videos but only for some real answers.

I love the questions you and your "game players" have come up with and all the thoughts you have added but I am NOT an igc or whatever you call them. After last weeks chat I did some google searches and came across your message board at ARGNet. It's all very interesting and the person that sent me the tapes might have created them with this in mind but that is not what I'm doing here.

I've said this many times before and I don't know what else to say. This Vincent person is not someone I know or created. I don't know who John Bono is and I didn't create him either. I fully expect to see this on your message board in the next day or so. I can't stress any of this enough.

138 must have been the person that send me the tapes but i don't know him. I can't say anything about who he is or what he wants.

I'm sorry this isn't what you wanted to be. I'm sorry I'm not a character.


uummm..........what? how do i respond to that?

Er, awkward!

Well, part of me wants to say she's just pulling a TINAG, but the fact that she mentions ARGNet and specifically references this board really makes me wonder...

However, she hasn't actually posted on UF (if this were an ARG, that would break the ToS), so that makes me kinda thing it is an ARG.

Regardless of whether or not Maria is part of the game, the tapes are fake, and those at least are an ARG.

138islate, at least, is canon (IG) because he posted clips Maria didn't post yet. Notice that he says 'I hate ARG' or something in his profile.

I think what's going on BTS at this point is: Somebody (playing Maria as a character) started this thing a la LonelyGirl15. They didn't know what ARGs were. They created this story with some interactivity with Maria (Who knows? Perhaps 'Maria' is the name of the creator of these videos, and she is 'playing' herself, a la Adam Brackin in Deus City.) giving out the videos weekly in a realistic format. (Again, a la LG15.) She posts a message on 10033's account--he's from LG15.

So basically, this 'ARG' was inspired by LG15, I would think. It wasn't defined as an ARG, and as such the 'PMs' probably don't know that we have a TINAG principle, etc. (Besides, this is more of Chaotic Fiction than an ARG--there aren't a lot of puzzles to solve.)

Anyways, now that Maria has come right out and said that she's a real person--regardless of whether or not this is TINAG or real--I'm going to treat her entirely as a real person. Because either way, that's what we she is. Wink

The awkward thing is that Maria--purportedly real person--is reading this and using it on Subject137 (in-game or whatever we're calling it at this point).

Anyway, sorry for all the meta. Back to the new Day 4 video!

Alright, just got some well deserved rest and saw the WEEK 4 video (sorry Rekidk, my OCD kicked in)

Anyway, notice that in that week, his shirt color changes to black. The same as what it was during the first video. Since we don't know how long into the study that was recorded, I guess it was somewhere around that point.

He talks about Tom's sacrifice (btw, I like this new voice, but wondering who it is, 138 perhaps?) now that could pertain to entering himself in the program but something else in my brain says that something happens to him later that leads to the "I'm dying" from the first video.

Personally I like the message this person gives, cause he's dead right. Anyway back to the focus. I wanted to know if anyone could get me audio from rex in day 19 so I can speed it up with adobe audition and try and match.

My feeling is it would be easier to normalise the distorted voices for a good comparison than to distort the normal ones. I think I've normalised the voice on week 4 (big file, though), and I'll have a go at Dr Lowvoice if my insomnia doesn't fail me.

Edit: I think I've got them, and, while I'm no good at accents and this stuff, the one thing I'm sure of is that Dr Lowvoice and 138/week 4 are not the same person. 138 (well, the VO on Week4) could be Rex or Tom, however; I don't know.

If anyone wants the files, I can either find some way of sending them (they're large .wavs), or I can explain step by step how I made them with free software (audacity).

Also, if anyone thinks they might be able to identify the music from the altered week 4 audio, that might help.

I've tried this before with 138islate, and I think they may be cryptograms. I tried both the codes together but nether of the sentances made sense, separate they could potentially mean something? I'll post what I have on here:

cdmnoty bxchms vakpua yins could be:
O?PI??T GROUPS BECAME THIS
I?GY??W THINGS BEFORE WAYS
O?LN??F SHOULD BECAME FIND
I?GW??L THINGS BEFORE LAWS

opqrno nwchinx vfkpqwx could be:
DUMPED ENTRIES COLUMNS
?UT?P? PERHAPS MINUTES
?TH?D? DEMANDS CLOTHES
?RN?H? HEALTHY JOURNEY
DEMAND NOTHING ???EMOG

(the question marks they aren't sure about)

Thats my input. I don't know what other code it could be.

He seems really OOG to me, he's just a normal guy, so is Haltorn in my opinion. I dunno about this email, I never got it. Can someone who has it forward it to my email? It's my username at yahoo

Thanks
