Kade is OOG IMHO.

The PM has no problem using real world crimes as fuel for his ARG. (re: 7 dead in Wilmington, those feet washing up near Vancouver are REAL) so yes, the meta for this ARG is going to reach into MANY backstories.

If this fact does not strike you as morally repugnant, then i suggest contacting the owner of the Tinfoilhat blog would be the next step.

yeah there's serious OOG stories being used for the back support of the ARG. the foot thing in vancouver is as real as it gets (i live in western canada).

i also agree with tempest and monkey. all these blogs are OOG and back story to be used later. we are probably supposed to familiarize ourselves with them for use later on (some kind of important meta / info).

the question is, how much of this is real and how much of it was constructed previously. if "the egg project" is as big as i'm thinking it will get, all of this meta was constructed in advance for no other reason that to provide us info. that's a lot of work.

how can we contact kade? can't find any reference on his site.

I don't know, I think tinfoil hat is pretty OOG too. This has to jsut be built around it, because that actually looks like a legit (albeit paranoid and a little idiotic) blog. the promo23 thing was posted in June of last year, and I don't think it has anything to do with Demolay or Port. Honestly, I think everything uncovered so far is OOG, except MAYBE the pictures on the RI forum. Has anyone tried contacting any of those people?

Also, I'm certain Kade is OOG, but he might have more information that we're not seeing/connecting.

agreed, the tin foil hat blog link comes from kade, so if kade is OOG then so must the tinfoilhat blog...

however, the tinfoilhat blog is clearly spoof, but using IRL things like the washed up feet. this is the calling card of the PM, IMHO.

i am a rigint lurker, this is why i am here, and i have to say, you are not going to get too many straight answers over there. As my fellow rigint poster's sig line says, Everyone is Suspect. the people over there who know what is going on are not going to tell u much. again, IMHO.

and i, too, wonder WTF is their motivashuns.

ok let's focus on our best source of info / puzzles -> JDM.

according to the email, we've figured out the twitter part. what about the mouse and the maze? our next steps come from him.


Quote:
Do you think that the mouse knows when it's in a maze? Maze.

I can see the clouds building from here here. And ooh they are darker than they appear. Darker


Could the reference to a maze mean that we are going through a maze of meta / blogs, and ultimately have to find the right place?

I don't get the cloud / darker thing.

There's also this snippet from Kade regarding the PK story:


Quote:
3. Part of the story appears to take place on the New Jersey coast or at the very least on Asbury Parkway in New Jersey. Blake's body was found off the coast of New Jersey and the story was reported by the Asbury Park Press.


The Palm Harbour, where Jenny was killed, is "off Asbury". Jenny Blake? No that can't be.. PK was holding her body. Someone else? Asbury Park Press

PK is / was a detective in those parts. I just emailed him asking if he knows of a Blake murder off Asbury.

Grady just made a good comment on twitter - JDM landed @ "O'Hare" - hare as in rabbit. suspect we may have to concentrate on rabbit-related things.

Hm.. While we're on the topic of rabbits, what of JDM's repeated words? They have to mean something, and while they're not strictly similar, they remind me of a certain white bunny who was constantly late, and made a point of telling everyone multiple times.

Perhaps we're being led down the rabbithole by Mr. JDM here.

Just emailed him / her. I asked "who are you". We'll see what that produces.

What about the other info?

Panaji is a city in India.

Aardam?

that is most certain...

I do not think that JJdeMolay's repeating words are a clue, just a way of showing which character is talking, ie we got an email from Kelvinator, but it sure wasn't Kelvinator any more....

Quote:

and that address looks totally fake.

agreed, monkey. the repetition of words is a character trait. i think it also serves to identify key words for us. i've gone over all this repeated words and phrases and there's no discernable pattern.

the address is quite fake. i think we need to figure out what it relates to. same with the pj3134. that doesn't bring anything up in google.

i'm getting a total donny darko feel from one of those rabbit masks pictures.

*edit* Body Love owns about 5 domains:

http://whois.domaintools.com/she26.com is one I found.

based off what we've already found, I think it's safe to assume numbers are a very integral part of all this. The question is, what do these numbers mean? I've already looked at them briefly, they don't follow the same cipher as our earlier code. Anyone looked any more into Watership Down for key words? Panaji perhaps? It's been a very long time since I've read it.

I have enough on my plate going through all of the OOG/Meta content found in the past 48 hours. Trying to connect this to Rachel's Walk in addition to everything... well, I guess sanity was never a favored trait of mine anyhow.
