[META][SPEC] Cross-game Connection?
Is She Still Alive?

I did a search and couldn't find any info regarding this so, If it's already been discussed, I'm sorry.
I've been half playing along in a fairly new ARG in news and rumors called "Bones". It seemed to hit a wall and stop so, not a lot had been happening on it. Then, last night we get an update from one of the other players saying that the trailhead is actually part of another ARG which is called "Isshestillalive"??? Shocked
We were given a couple websites and and some back info on the story so far. In researching the info we were given, I've run across A LOT of clues pointing to 1-18-08. I'm not sure if this is just trying to capitalize on the hype, of if this could actually be another part of the 1-18-08 marketing?
I've popped in and out of this forum, but I dont know enough about the latest developments to know if there related or not.
Here's a few links. You guys can decide for yourself.

www.brodoc.blogspot.com This is a blog for the cameraman in the game. It has most of the connections. In particular, Monday, Oct. 8th.

http://youtube.com/user/isshestillalive

www.48-hours.net/bones/images username: brodyh password: isshestillalive

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=21696

Again, if this has been discussed, I'm sorry.


Edit: Please tag your posts. -SpaceBass

There are a LOT of references, even some to Slusho and the main char might be related to Jamie...so we're trying to figure everything out but we're not sure if it is 1-18-08 yet. Though the coding on www.48-hours.net/bones/images/shuffle.swf

User: brodyh PW: isshestillalive

is the SAME coding as the 1-18-08 site and the Statue of Liberty is shown and it might be the same pic as in the trailer.
Check it out.

I see, mostly from the blog, some odd possible connections here and there, yes. Still dismissable as coincidence (a la the Ethan Haas debacle), but there's a couple things. - ed - okay, I confess one of the Brody dude's fav book choices gave me a WHAT.

Not having caught the Bones thing near the start, I'm trying to absorb 18 pages of notes and most of the Brodoc blog, and I admit I'm kind of confused as to what exactly is going on in that trailhead.

Well anyone asking for more information if you could hop on irc.chatsolutions.org #bones on IRC at 8 pm est tonight I can answer all questions.

More of the connections will be known in four days when the forum opens up to unfiction public.

Anyone who IS however reading Brody's blog a big thumbs up, there's a LOT there and it's updated near daily.

I agree that a lot of the connections seem circumstantial, but there are SO MANY of them.

The Bones forum is pretty hard to follow since a lot of it's content has been removed from the pages that exist. Most of the videos that are talked about are no longer there.

We were just told last night about the connection between Bones and 48hours so, we're scrambling to catch up as we're also trying to get you the best info we have.

I hate using IRC, so I'll watch for logs.

I noted the 'Hawk' thing on Oct 8th, but it looks like that one is a major coincidence (We've got a Rob and JJ Hawkins, but no link to a Brody H who would take JJ's nickname, no reverse Brody link to Rob and JJ). I'll see how the updates look in four days, but at the moment, it just doesn't feel really connected beyond the coincidences. I could be wrong, and that's why it's spec - we dunno. Also, to burp the copypasta, the blog and your Bones trailhead are post 1-18-08.com going live. It's still interesting, though.

Also- dug back through some IMDB stuff and it looks like 48 Hours did cross paths with Cloverfield at one point, but it didn't go anywhere or build a firm connection at that time, either.
