[OOG]Another New Site??? AKA Parallax

Was looking through wikipedia discussion page and they had this: ***JUST DOING A COPY AND PASTE I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS REAL OR NOT***

Not Sure Erik But Another Possible Site might have found that could be related to the film. The site Registration is ALMOST exactly like the Jamie and Teddy site and is located on the same server on the Jamie and Teddy site also. Its also has some assumption with the Hud character because of his hobbies of comics. But Like as usual cited sources are need to be addressed so it can be added to the article. Found by Stratus on Ethan Haas Fourms Just for reference.

AKA Parallax
AKA WhoIS Look Up

Created 10 days before we located Tagruato...

Where on Tagruato does it talk about the oil spills and double hull ships they're producing...

parallax? Big Oil has been raking in billions in profits but apparently not investing anything that would help it meet environmental and safety standards. Their negligence and sloppy monitoring and maintenance are more reasons to think twice when Big Oil says 'trust us' as they try to open up America's coastal waters to destructive oil drilling.

Recently, BP had to shut down the Prudhoe Bay oil fields in Alaska. This shutdown comes on the heels of the single largest oil spill ever on Alaska's North Slope, when a corroded BP pipe dumped 267,000 gallons of oil onto the frozen tundra. BP also recently was forced to shut down 12 oil wells after whistleblowers revealed that more than 50 wells, most of which are in the Prudhoe Bay area, were leaking.

In fact, the Prudhoe Bay oil fields and Trans-Alaska Pipeline have caused an average of 504 spills annually on the North Slope since 1996, according to the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC).

There is approximately 6200 miles of active pipeline in the Gulf of Mexico constructed or approved prior to 1982. To put that in context, there are 1200 active pipelines in the Gulf that are at least 25 years old.

Industry's track record with offshore drilling is ugly. Offshore drilling platforms and pipelines spilled 1.8 million gallons of oil in U.S. waters from 1990-1999 in 224 reported accidents – that's an average of almost 500 gallons a day2. Additionally, offshore operations produce 214,000 pounds of air pollutants each year, and tens of thousands of pounds of mercury have been dumped around Gulf oil rigs.

This site uses domains by proxy though. Granted that is to hide personal info when registering a site and might be cause to be suspicious BUT I am pretty sure none of the other confirmed sites have used domains by proxy.

I'll wager to say it's OOG. The Tagruato and Slusho! sites are way more professional than that monstrosity.

I've been looking for a chance to point something out in a thread, you know keeping to the relevance of the thread and not wasting anyone's time with starting a new discussion.

You need to be very skeptical of any new site. Look it over completely, check the who is, check it against the other known sites. BUT also keep certain sites on your back burner. I have URL's like boldfutura.com and paraffun.jp bookmarked and I check to see if there is anything on them from time to time. Just because something isn't on it yet or a site doesn't look to be completely related doesn't mean it won't have something on it or of use later on.

God, not this again... As you can tell, I've had somewhat of a heated argument on those forums, and they are referring to the people on this forum as a mindless "collective".

The only reason this site came up is because it's on the same server as other "in game" sites. Of course, so are 500 other websites, but that doesn't stop them. There is no link to or from this site to anything relating to this "game"... why are we even looking at this?

Out of Game? How do I know?

Well one thing that has been consistent (or at least appears to be) in this ARG is that we have never found anything prematurely, unless it was the Slusho site (which was found before it had been completed).

It would seem that the website would not be this complete if it was ingame, and there surely would be some kind of reaction by the Puppet Masters if we found a site we weren't supposed to by looking on the same server that hosted in other ingame ones.

It's too good to be true, and there is no proof shown of how it was found other than that it's on the same server. Anyone could have made it, updated it once tagruato was found, hid the update info, and say it's ingame.
