I have made 6 orders from Slusho! for friends and family. Nothing so blatant was contained in each container with the exception of the Japanese newspaper (shredded).

I will wait until others find the same piece of paper.

Amazing how the only person to get one of these posted it on UF. Wonder why? Rolling Eyes

In all fairness, when did you receive your packages and when were they dated. If this is real and new, there should be a point at which they began to add such a thing.

 		the thing about this Blowerjob's message that Fits
This fits the timeline of influx of Clues a week ago, given the way Most shipping avgs about a week?

but i agree need some more UFers vets to authenticate the WhistleBlow-jobbers msg.

bet the Japanese translates to

Dear Secretary:
Do you want to go eat some sea urchin off a naked American woman? I do and i want to play with your sea anenomea, and take some Egg Nogg and sake's, or as micheal scott calls them Nogg-n-sake.

 		Last package from Slusho!
If I recall we got it Friday last week after waiting about 4 weeks it seemed. So ok, benefit of the doubt. But Geezus, I always gotta be cynical bout this kind of stuff.

 		I'm looking at the new ones. Nevertheless, I'm having a hard time making them out. I'll give it a shot, though.

Please, SOMEONE, type that Japanese message onto this thread so I can translate it.

I can't blame you with the cynciality, but still. Anyway, mine was around four weeks of waiting, too.

EDIT: One more thing. Why is the first thing people ask is why I put it here? Where would you have put it if you found something like this and noone else has yet? Just a question.

Are you zooming in on them? They look clear to me, I'd type it if I knew how to type in Japanese!

Here's the full text on its own.

Don't just throw out the Japanese yet - I still think it could be important, and we won't know for sure until we translate it.

EDIT: I know a little bit of katakana and hiragana (no kanji, sorry), so I attempted a translation, but all I could make out was the first few lines, which say -

Level 1 [Kanji]
[Kanji]
Site [Kanji] of [Kanji] concerning
11/24/2007
---------------------------------------------------
[Kanji] protagonist (could also be city hand) [Kanji] of good (could also be who sprout)

Really, though, you're going to have to get a fluent Japanese speaker or someone who can work a translator really well to translate this. I can only get so far, but it looks important.


Just thought I should repost this since EVERYONE SEEMED TO MISS THIS THE FIRST TIME *snarl*.

I think something's wrong at Tagruato, maybe at Chuai, hence it's not open yet. I attempted to transcribe the words into romaji, but it's difficult when you can't remember what small tsus and straight lines in katakana mean. Though words like "bad thing" and "load" kept popping up.

That's what I was wondering. I COULD assume that he signed up, posted this, created another account, posted that he too found a ripped up paper, and then that would make it seem like this is real.

But I'm trustful and I believe all this. Sort of.

Well, I was thinking the same thing. BUT since he never gave us any pictures or other proof, mine is the only one so far. If showing pictures isn't enough for skeptics, just talking about it won't help.

(No offence to those who want more proof. I only used it as an example. I still agree about not believing %100)

EDIT:OliMango, the only thing I can say is thank you for sort-of trusting me. And, yes, it is possible to make two accounts and all that. It's just that no one else has found one of these, and with something like this many fake things have been thrown arround.

No, I see the picture fine now. It's just that, I can't type Japanese. If someone who knows how to (and I know we have people here who can), then I ask that they do so, so that I can get a smooth translation from it.

Bacon, I'm using a translator that reads Kanji, Hiragana, AND Katakana, and something about the words you've found just doesn't seem right. I'm sure you have the ability, but my translator is saying differently than you...

I'm not surprised that yours reads differently than mine. That last sentence is probably wrong, because I was using an online translator to figure out the words, because I only know how the symbols sound. I'm pretty sure that the first couple of sentences, with the exception of the missing kanji, are correct.

 		There are people on here who know fluent Japanese. We just need to get them in here, somehow.....

I'm dying to know what it says.

 		I can confirm this 100% ...I received my Slusho hat yesterday with the same insert...I received the right half of the tagruato letter. The note on the back says:

American,
The Chrai station holds a dark secret. Good people are going missing. Expect further communication in the near future.

- The Whistle Blower

This is an awesome collector's piece!!
