Markings As I have already posted on stage6: the markings
Looks like Gregg Shorthand to me. Possibly saying something like: empty money, but that is just a guess after looking here .
Any ideas?[/img]

First post on blogspot is July 12, 2007. First blog on Myspace is the beginning of Sept. If this really is a game, its extremely slow moving.

yeah it seems the video only went up recently too...I do however thing this is the start of something now....The front page of Stage 6 is now dominated by this.
Perhaps they were finalising a deal or fine points? That there is now a video is something.

Letter Can anyone make out what it says on this letter ?

wonder[ing?]
why it is [??]
in [????]
[oven/over] in this.

Gregg Shorthand If the symbol is shorthand, I have come to the conclusion that it reads:
"Save me"
this is after hunting around here: http://gregg.angelfishy.net/anunit05.shtml
You can see the "save" on this page and the "me" on unit one.

or I guess the second part could be:
many or money
save many?
save money?
You know, if it is shorthand.

update The "Words of support" voicemail thing has been updated on the blogspot site to this wav .
If someone good at audio could see if there is anything buried in it, that would be great.

letter I have also found an alternate picture of the "Deep throat" package:
The one posted on the blog Here
The one hidden in the blog source Here
There are two things to note here (that I can see):
1. The address is unblurred in the hidden one.
2. There seems to be some kind of green sticker that has been added to the posted one.
Any ideas?

Recording I have tried different levels and still can not completely make out what is being said. It sounds like
"Help Me Get Back (Unknown, Unknown) Safe Place".

Some people on the stage6 forum think it is a list of numbers:
[url=http://stage6.divx.com/user/earthian]earthian[url] said:
"If I had to guess at the whole thing, I'd come up with:
12 - 20 - 16 (or 6) - 7 (or 6) - 20 (or 21) - 3 - 6 - 3 - 2."

Oh, and it looks like this is an ARG for a movie called "Head Trauma".
This blog seems to outline how the game will work.
Looks like there is going to be significant offline ARGage. Being from the UK this rules out a lot of chances to find clues, and I really wanted to hear what happens when you phone the hotline 415-659-8348. It looks like it is provided by privatephone.com.
Is anyone willing to call?
