Well the e-mail link has an already-filled subject line: "About Graham"
so that could be a start!

The images don't work for me either, but that may be because we weren't meant to find this site yet.

I'm debating whether I should e-mail them asking about Graham, or just wait until another part of the game gives more hints as to what we're supposed to ask. I'm kind of expecting that the site will be finished and referenced by another character (on Tom's blog most likely) before we're meant to get involved.

For what it's worth, I'm definitely getting involved on this one. I have to watch through that archive215 site first and that'll probably take a while... So far, their character development is really really good.

I thought it would take a while, too, considering the number, but it is actually just a collection of very short clips. Very Happy

Also, also...I find this ARG interesting so far. I'm sticking around. I am just waiting for the next update, hum?

The 'April Can't Sleep' videos really freaked me out!!

I wonder if there is something about the water that is going to become a problem for our characters -- that might explain the Wastewater South website.

EDIT: Just to let all of you know, there is a new blog post on Victoria's blog titled "A Walk in the Woods".

Email Wastewater South

When you click on the email link it opens up an email with the subject line of: About Graham, so I sent the following email:

Quote:
I understand from your history page that "Graham Patrick Maxwell digging at the last pipeline before activity was suspended." I have two questions for you:

1. Why was the activity suspended
2. Where is Graham Maxwell now?

OYM
"Truth has become an Urban Myth"


ETA: Okay just got an email back not sure if is an automated message or not, suggest someone sends an email too :

Quote:
Is this you Graham? What do you think you're doing with that blog of yours? The culvert and the Cyhyraeth people and everything. "uncoveredgraham" ? You think you haven't had enough problems with that stuff? If you just come back we'll sort everything out and you'll be fine.


"uncoveredgraham" takes us to:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://uncoveredgraham.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/culvert.html


ETA2: Sent a reply and got the same email back.

ETA3: Okay it would appear that Tom's Blog and Graham Blog are very similar, their posts are about the same things. Does Tom have an alternate personality? I've pointed Tom at Graham's Blog before I noticed the similarities should be interesting to see what happens.

ETA4: The Dartmoor stories regarding 'Hairy Hands' points to 'The road is Postbridge' and on the 'uncoveredgraham' site it has a googlemap link to a place called 'Hell' in Norway.

ETA5: Last edit promise quote from 'uncovered!'

That blog looks like it's been written by someone possessed!

There are lots of oddities in the syntax and formatting, like empty links with the property name="_GoBack" (I think that's formatting junk left over from when he published from Office or Word or something,) and the numerous "save" breaks that pop up in this post.

Not to mention the completely random spelling and sentence structures and the fact that he misspelled his own name.

Could we be dealing with a haunted computer? Razz

Graham's blog must be one of the most entertaining and terrifying things I've read in awhile Smile My guess is that he now lives in the tunnels and is seen in the doorway in the video "culvert_005".

So, I e-mailed to Graham asking if he could tell more about the tunnels and if there really has been a cult having rituals there. Here's what he replied.

Graham Maxwell wrote:
nononononononononononononononononnnnonononononononoNNNNnonononononononoNOOOONNONONONOnonononoNONOnnnnonononononononoNNNONONO


That didn't really work Laughing I replied him and now waiting if he's gonna reply again.

Things seem to be unfolding at a slow pace so no rush! There doesn't seem to be much to "solve" per se, but I am enjoying the acting and I like that we're getting a good sense of who these people are. If they keep their focus on the characters I won't mind so much if it turns into an online serial of some sort rather than a game.

A couple of new videos up at http://www.archive215.com show them slowly waking up to the fact that something is up. But a much more interesting video from none other than Graham Maxwell himself has popped up on http://uncoveredgraham.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/mssage-iiiiiiii.html

It's a remixed version of Tom's video from this post, which rearranges his words to say something like:

Quote:
I am sorry Graham, and additions is a necessity. Thank you for a human being.

Expecting much.


The video is titled "strife". Not sure if there's something we can follow up here?

Well, Graham hasn't replied to me again, but I can't get to the archive site anymore. When I put the correct password, a message appears, "nonononNNnonNONONONO STOP". *sigh* I didn't even get to see the newest videos Sad Damn it, Graham.

Ha ha ha...yeah that just happened to me. I'm amused. I figured he just changed the password to some variation of the previous password (similar to how his blog posts are a variation of Tom's posts), but turning it around and upside down has not worked for me just yet.

Ah well.

Got another e-mail from Graham. I asked if there's something bad in the tunnels and he replies

Graham Maxwell wrote:

This is not the most fruitful conversation I've had with someone Smile But still, couple of questions rose to my mind. Is this video clip taken from someone else's video (Tom's or Vicki's?) or is this actually original content from Graham? And I also thought that was Graham the guy in Vicki's latest video? The one "giving them the strangest look".
I'm gonna keep emailing to Graham.

well as there is like, nothing to actually SEE in the forest video.. maybe the audio can be analysed?

Il submit my ears to the noise and see if i can give it a go

edit: well the left and right ear waveforms look different for a start.. still not convinced its going to be anything though

edit 2: yeah so nothing has really happened or become apparent with my fiddling with the audio

Pitch taken down a LOT http://www.filedropper.com/awalkinthewoods-pitchdownto78

Tempo taken down http://www.filedropper.com/awalkinthewoodssloweddownalot

Tempo AND pitch lowered http://www.filedropper.com/awalkinthewoodspitchandtempochanged

If anything ive made it creepier, and now im starting to hear screams/whistling in the audio clearer.... oh how ive missed ARG's Razz

Nicely spotted Seadevil4!!

Last edit i swear: The newest blog post here http://uncoveredgraham.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/help.html confused the hell out of me....til iread aprils blog also whats grahams email as i cant get the water one to work, keeps getting bounced back to me
