Interesting idea, but I would like to add some spec along the same path of thought

What if the wav file is a recording of a officer listening to the telephone coversation in his office? This would explain some of the pacing around and sounds of shuffling papers that are in the background.

The coversation about the Apocolypso could be between the person listening to the recorded telephone coversation and some marine under his command.


Hmm, that's quite possible too... but what would be the motive? And I'm not sure it would really change anything, anyway...

The officer is either eavesdropping for a reason or play-acting TOM and making a call for a reason, and it seems to me that reason would more or less be the same, right? So, maybe the bigger question is, what is that reason?

I just wish I had an answer for you... time to listen to the wavs again! lol

TOM=DV?

Okay, something's been bugging me about the whole "The Old Man = Deep Voice" theory...

If we assume DV *is* pretending to be TOM, then it really does make more sense that DV/TOM knocks on the door and walks into some other room rather than the lower ranking officer knocking and entering DV's office.

This is what's been bugging me, though... in Goodbye.wav you hear the door open, but you never hear it close. And you hear footsteps immediately following the door opening, but no more footsteps the rest of the wav. When Maria comes off hold, does DV just stand there in the middle of the COMM room? Then why do we still hear DV shifting in his chair at about 25 seconds and papers ruffling at about 40 seconds? And why does the background music not get any louder or softer as DV moves around? Maybe DV really isn't moving, but the LRO did come into DV office?? Hrmm...

Edit: Maybe DV isn't TOM and you're right... maybe DV is just eavesdropping on TOM/Maria conversation. So perplexing.

This may not belong here. I apologize in advance if it does not, but...

Two new axons have been added to the "recipe3" page:

I guess we'll find out when we hear the files for those new axons. If it's more from the "old man" story, then it's related. If not, it probably should be somewhere else.

I teeter on the edge of lockies.... but then the SP puts two more on the recipe3 page, so I guess we'll keep it open a while longer....

[META][SPEC] Recordings done week by week?

Does anyone else get the feeling that these recordings are done every week or so? The payphone reference by Kamal seemed a little too close to what we've said to be coincidence. The cranky old man/grumpy old man paralel is interesting, too.

Agreed, it's not like it's totally bizarre and unique for Herzon to call his persona "cranky old man", but it is strange that his subordinate makes a point of giving us the name. It's almost as if the PM's are teasing us, saying, "You can eavesdrop on the future... and we can eavesdrop on you."

If this is true, then there's a good chance that what we do will influence the outcome of this ARG, even if it's only in a minor way. I think the official crew is one of the steps towards that.

[/META][/SPEC]
