 		The newspaper stuffing from Japan has been discussed in several threads...its just to add realism to the packaging.

What do you mean by "rip up paper from Tagurato"...I don't believe anything IG has been put into the packaging for the Slusho shirts.

Why not? it's completely plausible, I think.

CF1 isn't saying it's not plausible per se, it just hasn't happened as far as anyone knows. All of us who have purchased shirts received the Japanese language newsprint as packing. If there really is Tagruato material in this one and not just an assumption that it's Tagruato related since it's Japanese writing, then this would be the first report of such a thing.

Word. That's all that has been established up until now.... but no Tagruato related info.

Man... now I'm really glad I ordered that Slusho shirt the other day. I just hope this guy isn't dicking us around. Evil or Very Mad

 		 Mee too
I've been waiting just as long. As for the paper, her'es what it reads, and means.


"American,
The Chuai Station hides a dark
secret.
Good people have gone
MISSING.
???? a further communication
in the near future.

-The Wistle Blower"


I couldnt make out the ????, but that's not the important part. The"Chuia Station" is one of tagruato's offshore drilling patterns. Guess where? Off the coast of NY. Here's the link to the map:

http://tagruato.jp/deepsea2.php

Now, it was on a ripped piece of paper, with their logo on it. It's blurry, but here's a pic

 		Hmmm...
A blurry pic, tantalizing information, right along the lines of what we want to hear.

Sound familiar?

I'll wait for the OP and some of our long time members awaiting orders to corroborate or better yet - for the info on the official sites to corroborate something (as they always do eventually).

probably a good idea.

this is my first experience with any ARE or ARG, so i'm still new to this, sorry for being the "Wistle Blower" too early...

i'd still like to see the japanese, and maybe corroborative translation of it. can we get this sheet that was sent scanned in, and in pdf format or something?
