Re: Net Threats

I renamed the hotwebcamgirl.jpg file to .rar extension and used WinRAR to open it... there seems to be a file inside called vid3-1.mp3. I cannot extract the file, though, I'm not sure why at this point.

Maybe someone else might have more luck, or maybe the rest of the archive is out there somewhere?

Pretty sure it isn't password protected.

CRC failed in vid3-1.mp3. The file is corrupt
Unexpected end of archive

Meaning either there is another piece to the archive (that is the way RAR compression works), or we need to do some hacking in the binary of the file to get it to extract correctly.

It would ask for a password if there was any there.

I know that RAR is probably right because the comment on the .rar archive is "bristelgoodman.com".

I'll think about it and try some other stuff.

your rite about the rar if you open the file in notepad its says rar in top corner but theres still a code at the bottom can it be instructions or a message on the file???

i got the file out its an old song but theres that code i was onabout in the text file: aSBvY3NybiByZWNyZWUsYmh2VyBtbCBoLlBydCxpbmNuZSBvZWVndCxzcm
VkciBvYWRjLGRhaCBlaXQsZWUgZXRvIGVhIHJhd2FldXluZSx2aXl1bix3aSB0cn
IgbnNydG8gbA==

just drag it onto your desktop both of them they work fine

ok its eric clapton and the songs called white room

edit: its not a video its an mp3 file thats says vid-3 which i was guessing has something to do with the 3rd video????

EDIT - broke up the long letter string to fit forum structure - SG

Okay, when I saved it as a rar file I got a text file-

{3-1}^64

aSBvY3NybiByZWNyZWUsYmh2VyBtbCBoLlBydCxpbmNuZSBvZWVnd
CxzcmVkciBvYWRjLGRhaCBlaXQsZWUgZXRvIGVhIHJhd2FldXluZSx2a
Xl1bix3aSB0cnIgbnNydG8gbA==

(I thought this was telling me to rot 2(3-1) then put it through the base 64 decoder, but that didn't get me anything.

I also got the vid3.1.mp3 file, which is a 22 second clip of Eric Clapton's "White Room"

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Lyrics are:
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines;
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves.


(edit: Aww jazkat, you beat me to it!) But what does it all mean??? In video 3, Ru-Mi's room is yellow with white curtains!

EDIT - broke the long letter string to make it fit the forum structure - SG

edit: i know that doesnt make sense but we cant go further untill we decode this message :

How do we feel about our main point of contact or this changing his email address?
Im not sure if anyone even noticed it, but its changed from eddieSPLATbristelgoodman.com to ed1SPLATbristelgoodman.com

This has been pretty confusing since we had been using the origional email address from day 1, and unless you actally checked the latest sie update wouldnt have noticed this.

annoying.

Shame, he's still putting his email out there so he'll get annoying emails either way.
I hope this wasnt an attempt to filter out who is involved with this stuff (read that as who plays).

I am brand new to this whole ARG thing, last night my friend sent me a video of girls in bikkinis getting tazered (ah the life of a 21 yearold) and one of the videos that was (like) was the bristel goodman video

and now im hooked (even though i swear someone walked into my house last night while reading all this stuff)

I dont know anything about codes, sign language, or anything for that matter, i am however, EXTREAMLY good at research.

On a side note (NEKKED) anyone could have wrote those lyrics, my 4 yearold brother could have wrote those lyrics.

And this has to be a game, because too many of the videos have the Bristelgoodman.com link at the end including the Holiday one which ends (on youtube) Happy Holidays (or something of the like) from bristel Goodman.com in nice 1980's bloody lettering.

My main question is, How long do ARG's usually take, cause honestly it seems as if almost nothing has been discovered, are we any closer to finding the person that we were day 1? Its all confusing to me but i love reading up on this stuff.

No belive me im definitly here for the "game" i was actually kind of upset that it wasnt over already, cause i hate suspence, I looked on wikipedia to try to figure it out, and google and all those other sites the only things i get when i look up Bristel Goodman are Forum sites.

there seems to have been a lack in development as of late

Think the creator gave up?


And on Ironwheats myspace, that third picture, a girl claimed it to be hers, but now that profile is private

Also the Rhino guy (who we are taking as the bad guy at this point i assume) isnt it weird the first time he was IM'd he denied everything, but since then has become a very trick suspect?

And on top of that, the Hicnickchick or whatever, i noticed her myspace as well as alot of the other ones have the same Top friends (as well as the guy who looked like eddie) So either the actors suck at keeping thier secrets or The creator is clueless

Who knows, i just stumbled onto this yesterday
