They answer them sporadically. Some times they'll answer the ones they're getting right now, and sometimes they'll go back and look at questions they got days ago. I've had one of my questions answered after two days, but also had four questions answered in a row within ten minutes of me asking them.

They answer certian questions when they can reveal certian information. So maybe you asked something that is only relevent now.

 		looking thru google results, http://8-3-11.webs.com/ popped up.

also on this particular site, the image of the little girl is called 8611s.png

so some could agrue, in the very beginning it seemed to be planned for august 6th.
i dont know the policies of webs.com, but the domain is called 8-3-11 though and can't be renamed afterwards i guess

It might just be that. I personally have Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. It's terrible pain that makes my life hell, but it's treatable. I think the reason why they are telling us not to worry, is because they want us to focus on their "cause." Perhaps the date 8𠖥1 is in reference of the bible because they wanted to create art (that STC diagram) so they could raise money to pay for an operation, without having to collect donations. Their secrecy and people "following" them by posting up flyers everywhere could help the promotion of their art, so they can pay for an operation for her.

Even though my Lupus isn't as "dangerous" as cancer or stuff like that, it's still bad, and there are procedures that can help, but are expensive and aren't covered by normal insurance.

Perhaps 18,000 is a family friend, or family in general, and the reason why Belle would be "mad, but not for long," is because she's someone who doesn't feel comfortable accepting help, even though it's positive. I'm the same way. I'm not used to people wanting to help me, so when people try, it makes me mad, not in the "oh my god go away before I kill you" sort of way, but in the uncomfortable sort of way.

You guys get what I'm saying?


I get what you mean. I thought it could have been a chronic pain syndrome because I have fibromyalgia. Like you, I'm living with pain. I'm just not one of the lucky ones whose symptoms go away. I asked their formspring if Belle had a chronic pain syndrome but it's not been answered yet.

 		a clue?!
attention! :)
hey folks.
at first i have to say, your forum is really cool... i'm from germany and i like to come here every day, since i saw that 8-3-11 thing Smile

Thanks also to all that postings, to find out whats up with belle, this 8-3-11 site, and so on!

OKAY! Let me explain my thoughts:
Anyone has written, that he finds the 8-3-11.webs.com site. On this site, belle's picture is named: 8611s.png

Okay. We all know (from the formspring) that Belle is "ill".
I don't know if anyone has this idea before, but i try to use the numbers in her named picture, and replace them to its alphabet order.
1 = A, 2 = B, 3 = C, etc...
The Picture from the 8-3-11.webs.com site was named 8611s.png
So we have HFAAs, right?! Smile
When you google "HFAAS" you get this:
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/HFAAS/message/1

Okay.
When we do the same with 8-3-11, we get HCAA
When you google that one you became several results. Ipicked this one:

I googled it and get following results:
http://hcaa.medcom.amedd.army.mil/

and

http://www.hcaa.org/

Is this a clue?! ... i don't know how to get further. But in relevance to the answers on the formspring it can be more than a clue?! Smile

What u think?!

 		It may be because Belle is 6 years old in that picture.

 		Interesting find, but I honestly couldn't see anyone creating a super secret creepy ARG (or whatever this ends up being) about someone with High-functioning Asperger's.

My assumption from the weird picture splice of Belle, is that it's completely physical, that may have happened later in life. Maybe a victim of a crime that left her disfigured, possibly a sexist related hate crime.

 		it's more likely to stand for H-C-K since K's the 11th letter

 		Autism is a far rarer in girls than in boys.... and 175,000 was clear that her sickness is physical, not mental/psychological.

I noticed that yesterday not only did they add the Pictures page to the website but they also changed the word associates in the message on the get involved to the word helpers.

I went looking for other changes and noticed that at the bottom of the get involved page in tiny white font it says "Top Down." which I don't remember being there before. You can't actually see it, you have to either look at the page source or highlight it.
http://8-3-11.info/GetInvolved.html

Also, the name of the .mp3 playing on the Pictures page is called TopDown.mp3

Personally I think they're trying to give some kind of clue. I have no idea what it means though.


Ok that's definitely relevant. You don't hide words on a page unless they mean something. Good find.


I don't know why I didn't think of this yesterday

The alphabet reminds me of this kind of shirt where you fold it to reveal a hidden message. We were talking in the chat about it.

Just found this forum. I looked through all 28 pages to see if anyone else had noticed the "Top Down" hidden text in the Get Involved page, jokes on me for not starting at the last page and going backward. I was pretty amazed by the person who realized it corresponded to the PNG file.

A couple things that haven't been mentioned yet:

On the same page -- the Get Involved page -- "~18,000" is in the same tiny white text as "Top Down" at the bottom of the page.

Also, probably more important: Someone mentioned early on in this thread that one of the first few questions to the formspring was (umbrellasymbol)?
The answer was a cloud (or sky) symbol and a downward pointing finger.

Top down.

Have you tried folding it? I have, nothing so far. It would help if I had a printer or a program to fold images, lol.
