Bones

Hi!
I'm a Bones player too, and I think there's a possible link here...

They do look pretty similar, and I'm keeping all options open..

It's just these videos were found in a way totally unconnected to Bones, so I dunno. Some guy found a sheet of paper with a creepy picture taped on and morse code on down the side while he was flipping through the NY times.

It has nothing to do with the ARGN article, someone just posted about the article and said the girls look kind of similar. She is in no way connected to the puzzle piece or original bones video from what we can tell right now.

Yes, they can be connected, but right now I really have the feeling that they are seperate...

Because besides the similar appearance, there's nothing else really connecting the two ARGs.. But who knows, that just may be enough. I dunno.

ARGN
Bones

I don't want to start a feud, but I'm almost certain the ARGN article stated the torn photo was in the package along with the video??? I think thats pretty solid evidence that this is part of Bones? Although the picture taped into the newspaper may or may not be the girl in the video, I dont think there is much doubt that the torn picture from the DVD mail is the girl in the video.

- 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".


Is everyone going to cash in on the 1-18-08 publicity while they can? Or maybe they are all part of 1-18-08. Wink

It's cool, we're all being pretty mellow about this so I don't think it's really a feud. More a debate.. And it's good that we figure this all out.

... These videos weren't mentioned in the ARGN article, hon. The Bones video was from the DVD. The one that everyone got in an e-mail. That was what they received in the package. These videos are totally different. Someone just brought up the article because the picture looked similar to the girl, not because of the video or puzzle piece or any of that. Isshestillalive has its own youtube account, which was found via the morse code on the original picture-find. There are multiple videos, none of them in the package ARGN received. The torn picture, in turn, was never mentioned in isshestillalive. Someone was, once again, just comparing what the girls looked like. The only picture used in this game so far was the original one that lead to the youtube account. Not the torn picture.

And yes, the ARGN article is about a package for Bones. But I don't think it's about isshestillalive, as I think they are seperate ARGs.. As of right now. But really, who knows? O:

I'm not sure I'm following the logic. I agree that the likeness between the taped image found in the newspaper is flimsy, but it directly links to ISSHESTILLALIVE on Youtube.
The torn picture received in the DVD of the Bones video is a pretty good match to the girl in the same video. It seems to me the only piece out of place is the taped image from the newspaper?
Though the rest of the evidence isn't very compelling on it's own, (I.E. the fact that the videos are shot in NY and the return address is SOL NY or the fact that there hasn't been any mention of this woman until now.) But combined with the Youtube videos and the torn picture received with the DVD, It's not much of a leap to make the connection.

I have to thank DBD here because it's good to know I'm not the only logical one here. Anyway if the stuff was related, isshestillalive has to be related, it's already being discussed in the bones thread. Nuff said

I think I see where your logic is failing you. The torn photo was included in the package to ARGN, but that package was specifically for Bones and had no reference to this trailhead at all. One of the players in here brought up the torn photo and compared it to the videos from this trailhead. As of yet, there is no link between the games

I must apologize since I was the one to first raise the question. I felt that enough had been said ealier on to lay the case to rest that the two are separate, and I hoped my post was sufficient to express that. Seems it really got this thread derailed Confused

Let's just continue on the premise that the two are not related, even if you think they are, so we can actully work on this on (assuming there's stuff to work on Razz)

I guess people just got confused for some reason. Confused

Thanks for helping me explain what I was trying to say...
And now back to the matter at hand...


Is she still alive?
Hmm.
The title on the last video hints that she might be...
But we really need more to work with right now. :/
We don't have much of anything, besides a handful of words and the question of whether or not some lady is still alive.

If Thebruce thinks they arent realted, then Im definatly inclined to beleive that. He's been here a loooooooooong time.

New video up on the youtube. Cute Chick eats donut.. but we do get to see another actual person. A member of her crew, it sounds like, though I thoguht there was only the camera man.

Not sure what to do, still.

Don't take my word as authority on that, that's just what I think based on the fact others are so certain. I'm not playing bones, nor did I get the trailhead for this one. Other are more knowledgable in this case.
That said, we haven't got anything new here since it launched with youtube videos, n'est pas?

Proof

I just read up on this and bones today and watched the videos. I think it is safe to say that this is indeed related to bones.

The Proof: View the YouTube video from this post: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=412037#412037

Or directly from YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/YourTrailguide

Or from here: http://stashbox.org/47837/bonesii.mp4

At both 1:18 and 1:30 you will see "isshestillalive" flash on the screen for just a fraction of a second.
