Hey Mosaic...you can comment on this one...I don't want to spoil.


Perceptive folks at RedPandaResources have noticed that they rearrange background objects in Oscar's videos. Fruit mysteriously moves around, etc. I just think that they're having fun with us, but you never know with an ARG. There are origami objects on the shelf to the right side (from our perspective) and one looks like a lunar lander (with a booze bottle behind it, heh). You might be onto something there with Denmo, SF.

Here is a screen grab from the "Meeting With the Mystery Man" video from the secure page. It's the same as the grab I posted back when I was linking the keywords to this same photo from a previous promo video.

Regarding 'Denmo'; every-time that I read that I 'hear' it as Den-Mo. Which, given the western motif, leads me to think that the bus-line runs from Denver to Missouri. 'Den' is very often used as part of a portmanteau, involving Denver.

One more versed in the Buddhist traditions and hierarchy may be able to shed more light on this. But Demno, and more properly Denma, is, I believe, the man's given/taken name and not a title. And a small nit-pick here also, but there is only one Dalai Lama, though there are other Lamas.

Hey you guys...Yeah I was following the himalaya thing with the name denmo. You're probably right it is a western theme.
Ok now what about the doll face? Those were key words to unlock the puzzle. I noticed things changed in Oscar's videos, also...the magnifying glass, sometimes there's a sticky on it or not.

Apopheniac79, the find above was from Summer Fun. Yeah, "Denver-to-Missouri" line occurred to me as well. The battleship USS Missouri is called the "Big-Mo" or "Mighty-Mo" from WW2 history. So you are likely correct that the bus line takes its name from that route.

I'll add here now a crop of the first (5 second) video that seems to have "target boxes" at four locations. Some of the graphics app windows are the same between the two monitors.

Not a problem. Taking off from your mention here of DENMO, I made up a simple straight line map from Missouri, through Denver and onward to SLC. Interesting how it's a very straight line. I placed the "cupcake co." in SLC as it was in the group of the 18 keywords, along with GIBBONS. I've added a theoretical bus line route that would jive with a "DENMO" context and connected it on to Salt Lake City, Utah. I wonder if the fire that the evidence photo is taken of will be located in SLC and "D. Gibbons" will be a POI (person of interest) of the FBI (Wedeck's team of Benford, Noh and Hawk).



So, are you all going to be watching the series premiere tonight, eh?

Yeah, Benford probably went right to eBay and bought his metal flask after that. Poor guy. The look on his face. Crying or Very sad

In a way, what I see is that if you look at the DenMo lines route, it points like an arrow (should have added that) to SLC. I wonder if that is where Benford and Noh will go to next week?

I would not be shocked if Noh is killed before 10 pm by the same '3 star' people who were trying to kill benford.

Cool
I'm not sure Beneford will go to SLC just yet...need more plot development. Noh will probably die...but will he get married first?(as seen in what did you see?)
I noticed in the second replay of the flash..there was a female picture on the board not seen previously. Did anyone else see it?

I'm wondering if truthhack and this extended experience will continue on through the show, or if it's done, for now at least. Everything's pretty much wrapped up, except who the Mystery man is, and where Oscar is.
Mystery man = man in the surveillance perhaps?

David Goyer said that Oscar and Marcie are going to be part of the show.

Ah, cool. Knew about Marcie, didn't know about Oscar.

Random thoughts...
What if us playing this experience was a kind of flashforward itself? wonder if they'll implement some of the player community input into the show =) this is based on the premise that Oscar's first appearance in the show could be from where we left off with his story, meaning on the show, everything we did with him would be actual history for the character. Maybe they'll mention Comic-Con along with the Collective's website and public FF collection initiative. Razz

anyway...
