It's nice and straightforward. Should be interesting to see if it gets any reaction, the twitter attempt came up empty.

For some reason, I can't stop laughing, Shoeler. I think it's the deadpan way you add "We're also not positive you exist". Here's hoping we get a response one way or another. A good idea would be to make it a video response, then see how the guys react to having a video response to a video they can't see.

Anyways, to really quickly clear up the concerns from before:

77 and 78 were on a flashdrive Jeff received via means I don't recall. They were initially corrupted, but became clear after some time. The titles refer to the 76 video chunks (currently on the main EverymanHYBRID hard drive) that the original A Day In The Life footage consisted of.
Elsewhere, Evan also received a flash drive with corrupted footage on it. Only one file was valid, and was the surveillance footage of Alex in his house. If you want to pull at some loose threads, I'd ask Jeff to take a look at the rest of those files.

Also, just noticed this Shoeler, but it looks like Evan is in the background of your video.


MAYBE IT IS EVAN...

nah. just a coincidence. side effect of living in a dorm room with 6 people. tried to clear everyone out of the shot. they stayed quiet at least.

I was thinking of something more like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tXwZgzHLoM0

But Shoeler has already posted a vid. Should be interesting, waiting to see if you get a response. Smile and yes that does look like Evan.

While hopefully wait for a "sign", I was bored earlier this week and emailed the guys about some other avenues they could pursue for some info ( in hopes of triggering something else storywise) , specifically the Officer Matten from the Memory Town letter. I wondered if maybe he was someone they were able to contact(assuming he's alive).

I got a reply today(yesterday)

Quote:
Contacting the officer is something that completely slipped our minds. Its been so.....hectic ( the only way I can describe it but it doesn't do justice) lately that we haven't been thinking straight for a long time. We just might look into this Matten and see if we can't get a contact address or something of that nature. Thanks for the thought, we'll let you and the other Hybrids know of the outcome.

Vince


I think it was mostly a "Hey, thanks for the email..here are some words to imply that I read the email" reply, but who knows.

edit: Maybe we can use Randomguy's message as a video reply on another morse video?

Sounds like a plan. This way we could gauge which one works better for communication, should we get a response, Hybrids or Arkies.

no, please. use yours. i already put mine as a video response on . . . . , so whatever you want to put it on is cool. honestly, yours is more likely to get a response, so i definitely suggest going for it. two can't hurt. would actually probably help.

I believe yours is fine too. Maybe multiple responses aren't a bad idea though. If anyone else wants a try on another morse video, I'm just replying to ". . ." (the first one).

Hmm.... All this talk of responses gave me an idea. Why don't we take a lesson from the Jadusable ARG and post the music video of Who Could Win A Rabbit as a response? Something could happen, you never know. I'd do it myself, but im currently on my ipod and dont have access to a computer.

I'd go with RandomGuy's right now. We don't know if they can even process direct verbal address given what has been sent and in what condition - assuming for the sake of argument that someone is sending us this.

If it were possible, I would add a morse version of his words to the bottom of the screen, but I guess it isn't. I'd stick with a single response for now, though. ETA: Oh, never mind, didn't see the note above.

Oooh, video responses! I think this is a good idea-- in the same medium, messages are more easily understood/received. I hope this works; it's the most we've been able to do for a while.

I think the second video posted here is most likely to achieve something. The addition of an offer for help is good, as is the general atmosphere/reliance on clips that the Arkwards-EMH. Both are good efforts, but I think before anyone puts anything as a response to a hidden clip we need to think this over more thoroughly.

I agree with Mattwan: we have no reason to believe that Slendy won't come down hard on this avenue of communication. This may well be a one-time deal, in keeping with His policy of isolating His targets and keeping them away from help.

So: we need to know what we intend to do. "Help EMH" is great, but not specific enough. Do we want information, do we want to directly influence the timeline, is there anything we're missing that they have access to? That is why I feel the second video is, so far, a better choice: it states a goal.

I want to make it clear that I'm not pouring any haterade on shoeler, just that we need to consider what we want to do before we make contact. It's a volatile method of communication, so let's treat it like it may not always work (if it does, and I really hope it does).

...all this is complicated by the "stop watching us" tweet, but I have pizza burning in the oven and I need to think about that more anyway. Thoughts?



god i hope this post makes sense, i am having a flu and everything is sharp and strange

I think we need to know who they are, where this is from, what they want to do, and how this footage exists. Is it future, is it an alternate timeline? How do we help? How do we stop this?

The future/alternate timeline question is good. Is there a turning point that we haven't passed yet, or is this truly a different timeline? And what the hell is up with the leaked videos?

Do you think asking them about HABIT would be a good idea? We still know very little about what his involvement in all this is.

I think we need to leave HABIT to HABIT right now. I made a goofy attempt to talk to him about the whole cycle thing after we got Box 5, but I heard nothing. I think that's my second or third attempt to speak to him and I had thrown in the towel after that, but I was thinking about trying again once he got back to the trials. Of course, I think the more of us that try, the better chance we have that he will talk to one of us.

Wow, I am both torn and in awe (which is some form of inception probably) at this discussion. To cut my response really short: Very good progression of thought on a complicated problem. The video response plan is a clever idea, and I think RandomGuy hit it right on the head. At the same time, I think the two videos are more than enough, and I would seriously hold off on any more video responses. Give time for a response, and I say take no response as a signal not to continue. Again, this is very smart, but I would rather we avoid emulating jadusable. As fun as it would be.

As for HABIT, yeah, qaqa. I don't know if he's pissed about the storage discovery or he's in Libya or what, but I also get the "just don't mess with him right now" vibe. Incidentally that makes me want to mess with him, but I will leave that to you. <3

[Humor]Why would HABIT choose rabbits?
I've always wondered, and now I found out.

Because, apparently, they are vicious little shits.

I never trusted those little bastards. Anyt mammal that hops around crapping pellets/jelly beans/brightly colored eggs has to be evil.
