On the t-shirt there are now three wallpapers. If I remember correctly there were only 2 before and one of those had a bad link.



I noticed that too, yesterday.. I believe the first wallpaper is the new one.. the one with the full scene of the yard and shed..

No, the third one is the newest -- the pond. Also, did anyone notice the moon has changed -- it's not a full moon any longer.

And, something else I noticed -- and I am not saying that this is new -- just that I didn't pay attention before, and it may be my imagination, but look at the door of the shed. See anything? I see a face.

Just realized I didn't know what they were
calling this thing. Came up with a few ideas
myself. Revo for revolution. Maybe Chariot.
Curious to find out...

This ARG confounds me greatly.

Althought the mechanical themes draws me in, I have no clue what the heck the Blueprint is.


Seems like it has side-sitting dual axles and a front drive? Spaceship? Tractor enhancement? People-moving vehicle?

I'll try and make a pic of what it might look like completed

A Construction Revolution?
itscoming.us

From the looks of this YouTube video, this is just a construction campaign:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OTOtXopn4AY

Looks interesting though!

...still seems really unlikely to me that this is actually about a new product for the construction industry. Just doesn't seem like a likely choice of media...

I doubt it is a gamejack, or if it is it's well done, in fact both vids are.

I just can't see any agricultural/ construction company going for a launch like this. In terms of market segments you'd think it's way off the mark.

I doubt it's an ARG, as there's not been much to open up the world, though it could be pre-game, but my best guess is it's some sort of game launch. (Although a game about tractors?? awww heck I've no idea.... Confused )

Radio Message

"Has anyone else heard the message on the radio station?
On the news channel 00 there is a message about a strange orange light in the sky - some kind of an orb or something - and what is it - a ufo? something else? - it is only a matter of time that more information is revealed. "

So stay tuned to the news I guess.

Coming from Kansas - maybe it is a religious arg - (I just saw another one from a church on a different thread).

edited: a strobing light, that seems to stay in the same spot and doesn't move. There are witnesses.

edited: also, the photos on the home page reveal an old large muddy tire, tire tracks in another photo (photos 4 & 5 - can't make out the rest)
I cannot make out the photos by the boat, despite enhancing them in photoshop. One photo does look like pedalstals with statue heads on them (2), and one pedalstal with the statue head broken off and laying on the ground.

It is odd that they would spend lots of money for google ads keywords:

2 keywords I have found - type them in google and see the ad on the right hand column:
snowplows (ad headline is "snowplow's sense it")
trencher (ad headline is "trencher's sense it")

Also found You Tube video from itscoming -
oddly the date it was uploaded is a coincidence October 18 (of LAST year).


http://www.youtube.com/user/itscoming

Don't know if it is related or not
