 		Same stage
I'm also at the page which tells me who wrote Shakespeare's plays... thank you, I know.

Since I'm not really experienced at puzzle trailheads, this is probably going to be way off, but...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
If you take the "Stop bothering me. I'm not here to help strangers" message and take capital letters. You get SITA.
If you use it the same way as "frabawrtnarno", you find ONE subcriber to that. "Fricke".
Click on that username and you'll see that he/she only has one video. But it seems to be meaningless?!... Some 4-second stupidity.


Otherwise, I have absolutely no idea what is it all about...

Mmm this isn't exactly a clue about this stage, but rather something to remember about the game in general.

Take into account that, as in any other page, there are some features of Youtube that one can control once registered, but others that one cannot. For example, I can decide whether to allow comments on a video uploaded by me, but not the view count (unless I hire a hobo to smash F5 during hours). It wouldn't be too wise of me to use as cyphertext those features which can't be controlled directly...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

...and, as anyone is allowed to subscribe to anyone, a subscribers list isn't something that only I can manage.

 		I think there are not many places to hide information.

It could be in the text, e.g. related to numbers (28 times "FRA BA WRT EAR AY", 6 times "FRANCIS BACON WROTE SHAKESPEARES PLAYS" and the age 4Cool.

It could be in the user name: FRABAWRTNARNO (still thinking that this has some meaning like FraBaWrtEarAy)

Or it could be in the background image. (Found no stegged info - but I am not an expert). Not sure what all those lines should be - could be some letters (similar to the posted image at the beginning of this thread)

 		Just to make it clear, it's not like I've abandoned the game or something; I have a look at this thread almost daily to see if someone advances, and I'm surprised that everyone up already, given that you were on the correct (and for now relatively simple) path.

 		Thanks for watching this thread. Even though we might be on the right track I am still stuck Sad
I think this is a nice puzzle trail and don't understand why so less people are trying to solve it.
