 		NEW VID
New Video up on YT: http://youtube.com/watch?v=l440N2YxONk

Who wants to do the transcript of the audio - it is not what one would expect from that kind of TV show.

Do we even have a contact address for AV? I mean, if we had that, wouldn't we have already solved the initial question of this ARG? (Who/what is AV)


I'm not saying that we shouldn't do it, afterall - I've already warned the doctor that his vlogging provides more than enough information to track him down and set up surveilance, I'm just not sure if we could.


not that i have seen... I was thinking more along the lines of fishing in an IG space (comment the youtube or blog, probly) and try to get AV to contact us?

 		The other important question is how to avoid upsetting the good Dr. If we try to lure AV out by posting a reply like that on YT or the blog, the doctor may feel threatened by 'the banana' group.

I say we do it, but we must be careful, post as if there was no contact between us and in a way that's not obvious for the doctor we're out to get him, but that hits AV's curiosity.

Something along:

"I know that cafe. You should be careful with what you post if someone's tracking you. AV could get information from someone like me."

 		((noob question - this is not considered an IG space, correct? as in, conversations here should be assumed to not exist for the "characters"))

This is from Supernatural, the show that the Dr. and I watched "together" last night... I was bawling at the end, thanks for reminding me Wink
I don't think we need a transcription.

Yes, everything here is completely IG OOG- http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=5


(side note and OT, but can anyone PM me w/ the way of renaming a url - I used to know how to do it, I know it's easy but I just can't remember!!!)

ETA: I'm an idiot - OOG is what I meant!!!!!! Thanks Wabonan...

 		Uhm Angba - everything on unfiction is OOG. And give the video a listen for me - it seemed that audio and video were mismatched.

 		Yeah, I just fixed it - mixing my acronyms with my though processes - which isn't hard to do!!! Embarassed

For the vid, there is some kind of a sound delay, but that is the right audio. I'm not an AV inclined person so I don't know what caused it. If the Dr. had mentioned the show and then posted it, I would think that possibly there was a clue. I am the one who brought up the show, when he asked me what TV shows I watched (and the season premier just happened to be the next night), when I told him I was going to go watch it, he said he might watch it too...

Have we used the chat room yet? I logged in a couple of times, but no one was there... I'll head there now

 		If we decide to lure in contact with AV, I'd be happy to. I have one instance of contacting the doctor (never got an e-mail back) and without IG evidence linking me back to you aside from the fact that we're all watching this guy...

It's really quite simple to make it look geniune. Like through a post asking how we (traitors) know we can trust him and hint that we've figured out his location. It's not flat out searching for AV, but it's drifting in the right direction. Asking AV to contact us gives the impression of baiting a trap.

To be honest, I feel as if we're being invited to do as much. After he posted the cafe video I (and AngBa) warned him that he was compromising his safety. But he persisted in posting the skull house video, the sushi video, and if no one could locate him through those, then he posted the witches cauldron. I mean, if AV can't google for that, Jochen might as well kick back with a beer and enjoy the weather!

 		((k, its IRC. figured it out.)

i'm kinda wondering, a: how paranoid will the Dr. turn out to be when we get AV into the mix, and b: how receptive will AV be to out "advances"?

will a subtle "AV could get info from someone like me" post be enough, or do we need a player (unrelated to "the banana group") to essentially offer to side with AV for the time being?

btw, if anyone wants to address me without typing my whole handle, blade is my preference for shortening it
