Signed up for it some time ago and recieved the link to "rainisfalling" today. Haven't been able to check out Home for any clues yet so if you find anything in there, keep us posted.
This game might not be very subtle but if since the guys at Quantic Dream have a taste for thrill and intriguing sceneries, we'll certainly enjoy this one. Have fun folks =)

So, this is something I posted on the facebook fan page but I wanted to bring it here. This is only the 2nd game like this I have done. The first was Vanishing Point but I started doing some digging and I found something odd about the tweets.
If you go to Twitter.com and in the search box you type in any of the names in the puddle you get a few hits. I have done both @drikp and @aquagirl01213. Now, these hits are from two people. One is named BEST_FICTION and the other is from EnzoRacer.
Now it gets really odd. Granted, I NEVER us twitter so I am not 100% sure how it all works but if you go to either BEST_FICTION or EnzoRacer all the messages on there page are the SAME messages in the puddle all linked to the persons twitter. For BEST_FICTION there were all posted about 6 hours ago and EnzoRacers were all posted about 3 hours ago.
This now gives us ALL the tweets from the puddle in one place without having to search them all. So, I started digging some more. Most of these twitter accounts seem to be normal people. However, @elisabeth_26sm which had the message of Dead has had his/her twitter account suspended due to "strange activity". The other odd account was @drikp because not only is it the only twitter from the list in another langauge, but the background is of flowers which seems to be one of the killers symbols.
Thats all I was able to come up with and I hope it helps somehow.

Some of the twitter accounts appear to be spam bot ones so I'm not sure of the significance of any if them. The elisabeth one though might be worthy of keeping an eye on.
Walking 'round Home with my new T on. Quite a few people have it. I'm following anyone I spot like a detective. Ha ha.

Guys, shouldn't something more have happened by now? I mean we're almost 1 day over (in 4!!)..
Anyway, has anyone collected the twitter accounts that appear on the rain on the main site?

I don't think that any of them are actually involved, but I put together a list so you can follow all of the people involved in the anagram: http://twitter.com/#/list/dan_hoerr/fourdays (except elisabeth_26sm since the account is under investigation)

Finally, it's started! If anyone's interested, I've started up an IRC for the challenge, which can be found at http://mibbit.com/chat/#4days
I'm figuring that the game will speed up a little so a chat might be a good option. Feel free to join us. (=

For right now its EU only. They said on the facebook US players will be able to get it.
Apparently the shirt in home allows you to participate in some clue finding or somthing in home.

Cool like Xi, which was pretty fun I must add. Although I hope the whole thing does not play out in HOME. You want non PS3 owners to get excited about it too...maybe enough to buy the hardware.
