Well, that's obviously Connor on the vocal track, though I wish I could get it without the music and odd effects.

Not sure what to make of the first image of the water droping off the black thing. Looks like it could be a facemask of some sort.

As far as the water running down a sewer drain, perhaps that is meant to be taken literaly?

Does anyone else find it a bit weird that after the initial frames the video just fades to black with just the audio, only to show the same frames again at the end?
It could just be because they needed to fit all the audio in, of course, but if so, why not just loop the pictures as well?

Ok, am I being slow or is that timer on the Aguatero Industries website a new addition? http://aguateroindustries.com/carter/
It seems we have 16 days and 6 hours, give or take, to save Connor, or his fate will be determined by someone else (Lucinda probably...and that can't be good).

well the comment to the video says we have to find Connor and the FIRST key is hidden in the video.
If we could get a better handle on the first scene we moght have it. The audio is apparently Connor talking prior to the presentation on Thursday. maybe the key is in the presentation.

My notice came as a text message from Lucinda at 22:39. from enviro ment "Find me on youtube to find a message from your friend Connor Arter. the hunt starts now. LR"

So my math may be flawed but i have the timer hittin 0 on july 10th and a google search for water july 10 brings back three interesting links

So in the video, I don't want to give anything away, but if you look closely, does anyone else see what i see? I think I have the key, but where do i enter it?

I found the video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vN3Ckni3YUA

The comment reads: "The first key hides within this video. You'll need to find that and then enter what you've just seen."

The choice of wording might be important here. 'hides within this video' and 'enter what you've just seen' both jump out at me. So, what's hiding, exactly. The next question becomes, how, and where, do we enter what we've seen.

Obviosuly there's a stormdrain and that black thing... have no idea what that is. I also find myself wondering if the keyboards that play in the background are something we should be paying more attention to. To me it's telling that every frame of actual video centers around water drops falling. Even the account name is dripdroph20.

Also, I'm thinking that so far the puzzles for this game have been pretty simple and straight forward, is there any reason to expect this isn't the same. The answer may well be 'stormdrain' or 'rainwater' or 'drops' or something really easy like that. But, again, where do we 'enter what we've just seen?"

Rewatching the video, the cuts happen at :04, :11, :17, :27, 1:37, 1:45, 1:50, 1:59

Found the key

I agree with Fieldy, I may be oversimplifying it, but just look closely and hopefully everyone will be on the same page?

[Euthanatos]

Put it in a spoiler tag here... I'm also thinking that if you somehow 'enter' the key into the H20 blog, that will do the trick. Or maybe the aguatero site.

The Key

spoiler?

[MensVenatus]

OK, whole new stage of this game starting...cool

Trying to spoiler the appropriate stuff here...

[heejin]

and what's this about a countdown?

[Euthanatos]

yeah, there it is... and here I was looking in reflections and at the odd refraction of that drop in the black thingy drop...
