I saw this. The car just turned straight around and left, as if they were lost. No one got out, so the packages should still be there..

I'm pretty sure that the white dot between the pile of gravel(?) and the second lamp post from the lower right of the street is the adorable bag. Check out 003 before he lays the bag down and then after -- no white dot, then white dot.

I believe it's still there.

Edit: Perhaps the PM was checking in on it?

 		A couple of things:

-Just in case everyone's not on the same page - we're not entirely sure that this IS an ARG. Everyone is claiming that they've "never seen any PMs violate big laws" like animal cruelty or something, but there have been no claims that this is an ARG, and regarding the police, a) they would probably believe it to be an ARG, and b) this is not a world-news thing, it's some obscure underground thing that a whole bunch of us just happened to catch on to. I'm not saying I don't think it could very well be an ARG, in fact, it probably is - but let's not rule out the possibility that "trinstod" could very well be someone very strange.

-Also, I'm not sure we should go connecting anyone else to the original trinstod yet. As this grows in popularity people are going to start copycating and trying to throw us off track.

-Trinidos is obviously a fake. The editing is completely different, there are no clues, and the camera isn't even the same camera, among other reasons to list why this would be a fake. No, it's safe to completely rule this guy out.

-I can still see the bag in the webcam.

-Also, regarding people who think it may be an actual animal, I highly doubt it. Getting to know trinstod's style, I think it'll be something a bit more cryptic that may have some relation to the word "cat", or a cat, but I don't think it's a real cat, or even a fake one.

-Anyone going to "collect package", please keep us posted constantly and take clear pictures and/or videotape what you find when you find it. It's also probably a REALLY good idea not to go alone.

-By the way, has anyone else noticed the piece of paper (?) held up to the camera in the beginning of #003? It's blurry and completely unintellagible to me.



This is the best screencap I could get of it.

ARG=Alternative Reality Game, which this is, we believe.

PM=Puppet Master, the one in charge of the ARG. Can also mean Private Message, like an email, instant message, or private forum message.

By the way, you're only 10 km from Malmo, yes? Any chance you could run over there with a video camera before it gets too dark? (I would bring someone with me, too.)

Thanks.

Seems that only i got the innerchild left in me (i'm 19) =/

Correct me if i'm wrong, but isent ther 2 package?
First one he "stabbs" next one hides behind a tree.

+ you cant see the package(s) from the webcam.
if you think the white thing beside the pile of stones is the package... you are wrong.

There are two packages, yes.

The first was placed on the ground in visible sight before they reached the line of trees. Check out the video (003). In the webcam shot before they get there, there is no white bag on the ground. After the bag is placed on the ground, the white spot appears in that same video from the webcam perspective.

It is even visible now in the dark because of the city lights. If you click on the webcam picture you can see a hi-res photo. The first white bag is there on the ground.

And yes, the second bag is by a tree trunk, not visible.

http://www.uuno-turhapuro.com/tag_trinstod.html Has specific Upload Times, which do not appear on my youtube here in US. Don't know connection between "youtube team" and fans of Finnish comedian.

Don't know how to correct for timeszones

I am newer to this board. Found #001 10/14/2007 day later in 4chanarchive.org. Am not a poster anywhere else.

All of the sound was from the guy and girl at the scene. The video of the webcam and computer was added later, keeping the original sound.

On another note, this obviously fake #004 lacks any of the finesse and cryptic clues of the other 3. We'll have to wait for the next video - the real #004.


Did I miss something? How do you know it's a guy and a girl at the scene?

 		Also, there was a white car on the webcam just a few minutes ago. Now it's gone. Did anyone pay closer attention than I did to that?
