 		Idea
The boat icon on the sonar image represents TIDO Wave's boat.
Eh?

 		i wonder if they will have a headline update soon on tagruato.

teddy was probably captured questioned and killed by tagruato on whatever the station he was on. chuai seems like the most likely place though. teddy pretty much snuck on to the station. so if they were to kill him and dump him deep in the ocean somewhere...


oooooooooooo... what if teddy IS mutated when they are disposing of his boy. probably why he would attack the station and head to new york. probably looking for the stuff he gave jaime.

Well, it appeared to be something triangular so maybe it is. Or maybe it's what was left of the station.

 		do we have any images of Tagruato's stations?
If we could compare it to the sonar image, it might give us a better idea of whether or not that's what is being shown.

And this is the ultimate confirmation of TIDOwave being IG or OOG. If Tagruato responds in kind to the destruction of a station, then we know once and for all that TIDOwave is IG. If there's no response, then it's damn certain they're OOG. Which really screws everything over...

Personally, I'm pretty confident we'll get some response from Tagruato soon.

All I can think of is the background of Tagruato's Deep Sea Drilling page: http://tagruato.jp/deepsea.php

But I've been out of the loop.

 		Cool, some new(ish) comments have finally been added too!

Possible the straight edged parts on the sonar was the station, don't know about the rest of it.

 		Noob here... I don't know if it makes much difference but the Chuai Station on the Tagruato site is the only one which doesn't have an "Estimated Ultimate Recoverable Resources"

So I am guessing that might a be a clue that something is foul in the station of Chuai?

 		Do we have evidence, the Chuai station even exist? Perhaps it was just an "station on a papers" for Tagruato to explain their financial leaks in their secret project. ?

Like that Tennô Chuai, whose historical existance doesn't also have any evidence.

 		It may not have evidence of existence now but didn't Teddy say 'they' were on the station. Of course it doesn't have to be the Chuai station, but he did say station and that is the one we are focusing on at the moment so it would make sense for us to think he meant Chuai station.
I guess we'll find out what happened soon.

 		WARNING long winded post forthcoming
all i can say is HOLY SHITAKE MUSHROOMS BATMAN!!!! so here is my thought. mgp is definitely the cause of the station going kaput. which to me will just emphasis how enormous he truly is. oil drilling stations are no small things. methinks that he got pissed off for whatever reason and decided to just reach up and pull it down basically, had he gone berserk and just rampaged through the station as he will rampage through new york there would have been debris. I think that that is the most telling line of the post, "NO DEBRIS" just think about that for a second. for something the size of a drilling station to just disappear and leave no debris where would all of the chunks of it have to go? either straight up (which i am not sold on the whole "alien" theory just yet, but if it were true than they could have beamed the whole damn thing up) or straight down. either way it would have been done very fluidly, no real struggle no explosions no nothing.

and please everyone quit with the whole "is tidowave ig or oog" stuff, it is ig, it always has been ig. i personally cite the fact that the whois info has the site registered almost 2 weeks prior to tagruato getting hacked which was the first time that anyone had heard of tidowave. not to mention the fact that on the 18th they posted the message saying that the mission was having problems, and then the whistle blower sends us peculiar sonar images that were taken on the same day. so drop it already.

now onto the theory of an under water station. this can't be the case due to the fact that teddy spoke with/contacted randy in some way after infiltrating the base to let him know to contact jamie after the ninth so they would have known if it was an under water station.

as to tagruato's response to their (i'm assuming) multi-million dollar drilling station vanishing off of the face of the earth. what is the first rule in business and or politics when something goes wrong? "DENY DENY DENY" I think that tagruato will not mention this event publicly but we will get a new messge from the whistle blower of an in-office memo telling the high ups about what happened and what to do if asked about the station. as for their website the only change i see as possible in response to this is that the chaui station will just miraculously disappear off of their drilling stations map and will not be mentioned again ever on their website.

something else that i just realized while typing this that i think has more importance than initially thought is the fact that due to whatever happened to the station they (tidowave members out there) were unable to contact anyone. to me this implies something along the lines of a massive electro-magnetic field (sorry if this is wrong, i am no scientist) or something of that sort that would cause phones/pda's to not work. once again as i stated in my parenthesis i am no scientist i have no idea what in the world could cause something like this but it is something that i think will hold a lot of importance in the coming weeks.

now as for things to come in response to this happening:

1. Randy will finally contact jamie and we will probably see another video from J&T something along the lines of either jamie saying that randy finally contacted her and she told him about tagruato constantly harassing her and randy told her to get out of town to get away from tag, or as has been speculated before a vid of tagruato breaking into the apartment and capturing/torturing/killing/interrogating jamie (take your pick)
2. whistle blower will have a field day with this sending us more info on it, i would expect that the rest of the arg/are will more than likely revolve around what happened to the station.
3. Everything will start picking up big time with this and leading up to the final countdown to the 18th.

just my $0.16 (it is so long winded it had to be more than $0.02)

 		So if a BIG SOMETHING hit the station on January 1th, why is it, we haven't had something in the news? There are people/relatives missing, maybe an mass polution with oil/radioactivity from the station is happening? Is Tagruoto keeping the news secret? If there's a oil leak somewhere on this planet, a meltdown (ok, no good example, Tschernobyl took a couple of days to get fully noticed) you know it almoust instandly. Maybe there is some fictional newscoverage about the missing station (Japan?), we haven't heard of at the moment.

 		well if they didn't find anything today, meaning they got back from the station today, then news won't hit till tomorrow morning

then again, it is in the middle of nowhere, they could go for a week or so between radio communication with the base in japan or something and so no one will know until a week has passed
