[48] Is She Still Alive?

Ok... since no one else is moving this up, I guess I will.

MIKEfromNYLT posted this over in email/Spam/trailhead. He apparently found a picture tucked inside a copy of the Times at a Borders (evil!). I'm attaching the pic to this post,

Delusional decoded the Morse at the right to read

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
IS SHE STILL ALIVE AT YOUTUBE


Which sends us to a bunch of videos here

ooo A few more have been added since I last looked!

Interesting. So maybe her cameraman went cuckoo on her, or is thinking about it.

Observations:
Blue Fin Seafood Restaurant, 1567 Broadway (at/near Broadway & 47th St., the intersection she mentions being at in another video) in/near Times Square (yeah, I don't know jack about NYC either), 3-1/2 stars.

A sign at the beginning of the shortest video reads 401 Broadway, which is further south in Manhattan, 3.5 miles away from Blue Fin. Other vids were uploaded both before and after this one, so we can't necessarily assume they were filmed in the same order in which they were uploaded.

Some vid descriptions: "viale", "eusm", "cold hidden plain sight"

The hotel has a big W over the door. Actually, it could very well be this one, because the Blue Fin is part of it: http://www.starwoodhotels.com/whotels/property/overview/index.html?propertyID=1234

could it be related to this trailhead posted at argn?

The girl in the photo in the package (image) looks like she could be the same person... but the rest of the content seems pretty different.

Just took a loot at ARGN, there's a puzzle piece from Bones in there...

I think it has to do with that

Just my two cents

Not sure

The scan from ARGN was low quality, and youtube is youtube, so anyway here is a fast comparison.

I dunno. Im not sure they are related.. but its hard to say. Persoanlly, I think the girls look fairly different.

Theres not much that cna be done quite yet anyway. With the rate the videos coming I bet one or two mroe will pop up in the next day, or two, and hopefully give us enough information to either combine the nessecary threads or diffferentiate them

Evidence that I am right:

The video posted on ARGN is the SAME video I recieved through email which says and I quote "He breaks BONES to make amends"

I dunno what the rest means but that puzzle piece is a shoe in, the same that I got in the first video.

IF the argn package isn't related, or is bones related, then the discussion should be continued in another thread... I don't believe there's a thread specifically for that trailhead yet, but if it's Bones related, maybe someone should ask the Bones players Razz but let's re-rail this thread to the youtube videos

I dont think these videos ahve anythign to do with the puzzle piece/picture from ARGN. I KNOW those go to Bones. I jsut dont think the chick in that ARGN pic and the sishestillalive videos are the same person. i think they are different. I'm simply waiting for more evidence before havign a mod merge the threads..

Both are cute though.. but not the same person

I'm down for the first part. As for the second... well, if you really want to go out with somebody who says, apparently without irony, "It's all about me," then go for it. Razz

I guess it's possible they could be the same girl, but think it's too soon to tell. However both seem to have NY connections - the Bones CD had "SOL NY" which could be the Statue of Liberty, and in one of the isshestillalive vids the girl points to the Statue and says "we're gonna rip her a new one".

Oh yeah, in one of the vids where they're walking down the street, the girl says the cameraman's name, but I can't quite catch it. Mr. Maloney, maybe?

Hmm. I'm down for giving this one a try. I've been waiting to catch an ARG right at the beginning...

We don't seem to be given much as of right now, though, although I think we can expect some new videos relatively soon. They're really just throwing those out like crazy..

The only thing that caught my attention at the moment was..
All of the other video descriptions seem to be hinting at death and life, like "viale" which is "alive".

There is "eusm" as one of them, which could be switched around to "muse", which seems to break the pattern a little bit here.
There are the two phrases "cold hidden plain sight" and "cold alive she still".. But my mind is too tired and sick to work those right now. Urrr.

I hope we get more to work with soon. Smile

And I didn't catch the name either... But I did decide this woman character is rather a brat. And the camera man seems a bit off.
