Hm? And what is this?
Well, to tell you the truth guys, I think we so desperately need a lead we might as well check into this.


Already did. Turns up nothing for the most part. the second two dates turn up girls high school sports games, which would tie in, but they're in Lancaster and Haverhill, MA

Well, double damn. I guess keep looking. Seems that this might have been a brick wall.
=/ I appreciate the challenge but I think maybe the PM left out a link in the chain. Something seems missing, but we've gone over everything and we still can't crack the 4-digit codes.

There was a post a few pages back that said there may be morse code or binary contained in the random beeps in the audio. Did anyone check that out?

Failing that, we need to recap the details. We need a list of what we already know, a list of what we still don't know. Just so we know what we've solved and what we haven't.

I also have a feeling PM is throwing us red herrings to stall us. Maybe we can eliminate some redundant into?

I was checking it out... All it was in the end was I used too much noise removal on the track and it was the humming in the background just looping

Uh... No.

If the PM wants to give out hints, that's not the way to do it.

Any post I see like that is pretty much instantly ignored. Move on.

Well the obvious is that to me it sounds like he keeps starting sentences with "I" and I thought I heard the word "softly" but that would be a little uncharacteristic of our PM, wouldn't it? I thought I heard the word "murders" as well.

He pretty much just repeats what the codes tell us in the audio clip.
"I am a murderer" "You will not find me" "You will not find the bodies" and so on and so forth.
There is also what sounds like a woman screaming at the end of the video.. if you pitch the audio up to about 180.. she's screaming "No, no, no" that's what it sounds like to me..

Few questions I haven't seen asked yet.
How many of us are working on this?
Do we know if there is any company or marketing firm behind it?
The only release date I can find for 10/28/09 is Ben 10 Alien Force Vilgax Atta on the Wii, which I doubt this is a ARG advertising campaign for a Wii game rated E.
Excuse my ignorance, this is my first experience with an ARG, if this is an ARG and not someone's private game just for fun.
Has there been any legitimate contact with the PM, besides the clues he possibly left. After all, even the box could have been left by someone not associated with the original video who has frequented /x/ or these forums.

It is just some things I am wondering.

Yes, we have IMs on YouTube with waiting to play, and we know he's watching UF...

We also know the PM is stalling because communicating with UF was clearly a HUGE part of the plan for a game, and he's been told it's a no-no. Hence the redundant clues.

Can we or have we seen the YouTube IMs?
Also, if no direct correspondence with UF is the rules, what about other videos on YouTube or posts in /x/ portraying the hints the PM wants to get out.
Like I said, I'm new to ARGs, and just wondering why it was initiated and how many of us are playing his game, and why the game was begun.

After all, someone stumbling across that video, who did not know what an ARG was would be in for the wrong impression really fast.
Since it was posted in the Net, Mr. W8TP would find himself at gunpoint one fine morning from both local law enforcement S.W.A.T. teams and FBI (since it would take them to find out where it originated) after the Youtube account records were subpoenaed which would track back to his ISP, and then eventually him because someone dropped a dime on that video.
That is some risky business right there especially if it is for a home brew game, and has no big financial backing, because all it would take is some twitchy rookie thinking Mr. W8TP's wrong move when he is being yelled at to get on the floor was a move for a weapon because according to the video, he has killed before, and, well, it wouldn't be good, because they are trained to shoot first in their and their team's defense.

Well he needs to figure out some communication soon cause we're not making much headway at the moment.

I just want to point out, is it just a coincidence that all the coded messages are in the video? Perhaps the rest of the messages are in the video the ones that could not be decoded. Also, we might HAVE to wait until October for any further clues.
