blue can, lion on it?

Many of the emails in the game summary that josh sends to players are sent early in the morning (2am, 3am) and josh insinuates that this is later than normal for him...maybe the blue can with the lion is the energy drink roaring lion?

josh could be doing something that requires him to be up later than usual for him (working on something, looking for someone/something, researching..?)

I saw that roaring lion drink when i searched google images, but didn't really think of a tie in. Your explanation makes good sense. He does mention late nights.

I'm less inclined to think it is an energy drink, especially since I've never seen any Roaring Lion out there. Roaring Lion also seems to be marketed more towards bars anyways (according to the wiki and their website). A 5 Hour Energy would be a better choice anyways lol.

Really? Not sure if I agree about what this guy is asking for, but if it is this, then there is this!

audio clip
question

Has anyone tried to break the audio clip down. It sounds like there are two different audio tracks running together, one louder than the other. Has anyone tried to seperate the tracks? There is defenitely a crossing of sounds and two distinctly different audio tracks.

Yeah, I'v also thinking about splitting the sound, the question is, how? I even hoped, it were stereo channels with various sounds, but it's mono, as far as I see...

In the photography realm, is a "can" the thing that holds the film? Maybe "they" are looking for a film can with a lion on it?

the two notes that play in the audio file, has anyone put them infront or behind the original set of notes and see if these new ones fit with the golden ratio or anything?

completely off topic, but when i first heard that last one there, i immediately thought of Paul Gray from Slipknot who died in May btw, anyone else think that those two beeps kinda sound like when you open a door at a convienience store, the bells ring?

Train?

Confused This is just a theory thrown out there, but... The two men talking in the audio file COULD possibly be the train operator and the person we hear at the Area 51 communication station (groom lake one, wright patt) in the trailer. some vocal similarities, people.

I can't beleive no one has thought that they are in a film processing store/labratory!! The noise in the background is not a plane but the machine that processes the film.. and you can clearly hear the camera noise as well...

Either the conversation was accidnetally recorded when adding/removing the film from or perhaps Mysterio has followed Josh there and is recording it to see where the film is and they lost it at the store... "If we had it we'd know".... everyone has their own thoery though.

Also, don't assume the trailer is what's on the "film" or what josh can see.. only the interjected flashes of super8 between the trailer is actually whats on the Super8mm - STIES printed on the film is probably the message from Josh's Dad to him (or anyone who gets the film) to set him off on this big treasure hunt...

Very early on in the Trailer head thread someone posted a clip of all the Super8mm shots seperate from the trailer.

Slinky;

You said that "the noise in the background is...the machine that processes the film.. and you can clearly hear the camera noise as well."

I've not been around those machines enough to recall what they sound like, but I've heard the clicks, buzzes, and whirrs that different cameras make and I can't make out any of those sounds on the clip, but that's me.

And the questions I'm asking are not intended to shoot down your theory, but to help me understand you better.

So, just to clarify, are you saying that Josh took the STIES film (which I don't believe any of the S8 trailer is part of—with the exception of the leader with the red writing) into a photo store/lab to be copied, perhaps, and the store lost it?

What would Josh's(if it is him) comment, "Blue can/cam, with line/lion on it" mean?

And I don't know how the S8 cameras/film cartridges work, but is it even possible to accidentally begin recording while attempting to remove the film cartridge?

I do feel that Mysterio either was there and was deliberately taping Josh (to send the message, and validate his statement, "I still found you easily"), or had a partner tape the incident.

Thanks for your theories—the more we can come up with, the greater the odds, we'll reach that "aha" moment! Laughing

OK, right I've been out of this for a very long time so I'm playing catch up. Bear with me and feel free to shoot me down and trout me.

Right first off I cant find the audio on the desk top. I'm assuming you mean the http://www.scariestthingieversaw.com/ desk top? but before you enter the PDP sim? So I've only just got the sound from this thread.

Also I do think the print out is telling us we are looking in the wrong place. I know some have said this is breaking the rules, but TBH I'd rather be told were on the wrong track. However I wonder if we are meant to be looking in the real world rather than for another website IE geocache.

Finally, has anyone stegged the new print out image? I know most people do without mentioning but thought I'd put it out there!!
