Bad example: Tagruato's domain and the MySpace pages were created BEFORE we had the necessary information to find them. Glass Helmets' MySpace was not, or cannot be verified as pre-existing before the reference in the video.


The point is, not once have we been pointed directly to a particular site

"cannot be verified as pre-existing" is irrelevant, because, by your wording, we can't verify it wasn't. The only way that would have happened was someone stumbling over the site by accident w/out a clue. And if that happened thier would have been no reason to look at it twice before the vid because nothing even connected it to the IG universe.

Since it's a Myspace page the whole 'did it exist before' argument is a straw-man, it doesnt hold up. And I think most likely, people being what they are, somebody had two tasks to do that day and did the easy one first. (ie: change webpage to add link to video 5.. go get sandwich from subway.. come back, build myspace for the band she mentions)

Besides. even if there were posts from a week before the video, there would be people here saying its OOG for that reason...


I was involved with that Jamie striptease vid when it came out and it was relatively a short time till The Glass Helmets MySpace was found. Anyone have the exact interval. (this is just from memory so I may be wrong and will go back over the original thread) My point is it isn't that easy to find a name on MySpace. If you put search for The Glass Helmets instead of theglasshelmets it might not come up if it had just been added that same day. So when the first poster who said it's not on MySpace might have been wrong, I've done it myself. I think it was actually found 4 hours later. ( and if the PMs added it the same day does it make it automatically OOG or just sloppy work on their part). If it was OOG I think they would be having fun with it and trying to prove harder it was IG ,by adding pics and such.

Being a musician myself that song IS the exact same song except longer not someone's remake.

Also that cancelled 14th gig is quite a coincidience for TIDOWave to back it up by cancelling their event on the same day.

Like I said I'm still on the fence, but no one in all these weeks has found the original song or anything else to do with 'The Glass Helmets" which Jamie emphasized on the vid (why put that out there if there is nothing to go with it). We may be hearing The Green Force somewhere in the movie, which would be really cool.

Now there's a blank page on myspace
http://www.myspace.com/theglasshelmets
Thinking it's a jack, since it's creation is concurrent with the vid and its blank. So we should investigate and make sure it's a fake... it's super new, recently created, on 11/12/2007

 		Was it just a coincidience that the last login for the glass helmets is on the 6th. Dunno

To me it is looking more and more IG. I think if it was a gamejack they would add more things and play around with us more. But the way their page has hardly any updates and then stops is quite inline with the way this ARG? (whatever) went. Jamie did go out of her way to mention The Glass Helmets and then nothing but the MySpace page was discovered.
I think one of the last big revelations might come from "the Green Force" lyrics. Who knows, I'm kinda disappointed there wasn't more closure for us. We still have no idea even how 6 fits into this.

This is actualy the first ive heard about this myspace, quite surprised I missed it but them mentioning the Tidowave rally seems like if it is fake, its someone who knows what they are talking about...all the other gamejack sites seem to not really know anything


Maybe those jamie and teddy videos arent as useless as everyone thought...does she ever mention anything else relevant like this?
