Nope. Yesterday it was a seemingly normal blog in Spanish.

Okay. First of all, Hi. I've been watching from the corners for a few hours now, not that anything new has come up, but I got slingshotted from another(totally unrelated) forum where the first two videos were linked. I did some sleuthing, but couldn't come up with much. Then I got linked to this board, and have been reading all thirty pages or this quite avidly. One thing I'd like to point out, in the HC forums, one of Iliketofix's responses to 'the masks we wear' questions was this;

Quote:
I do not feel entirely comfortable answering that first question, and the gentleman who wrote this was more of a book reader.


Wasn't one of the video posters usernames iliketoread? This may give a little more insight as to the point of the story, because so far, it just seems liek a silly ghost story with a strange twist. I'm going to re-read what you guys have come up with, and see if anything else jibes. I have to say, this is my first ARG(if that's what it is) and I'm quite head-over-heels into it already.

Yes, and then there was also iliketowatch. Actually, with regards to iliketofix, I'm now reminded of the line from the end of the second video, "WE JUST WANT TO FIX YOU". None of this explains "givemeanumber" though.

Yeah, the number thing isn't really working in my head. From all the clues that have been thrown at us, he wants us to see the dual nature of everything, 9sisters/9brothers, good/evil seemingly, etc. But with the numbers, there is no breaking it down into halves. Not even halves at anyrate. WHAM, like a ton of bricks, as I was taking a drag from my cigarette about to say I don't know what to look for. 9 Sisters, 9 Brothers. There are two sets of three [2][(333)(333)], however, that still leaves out the last third of the sequence. Maybe it represents the viewer? The ones being affected by the two sets of nine? I'm not sure where to go with this, so I'm going to jump to something else completly. The videos all seem to have an aspect of duality in them to some extent, at least in the text, depending on how you interpret it;

Vid 1:

YOU WILL SEE SUCH PRETTY THINGS

Despite the creepy tones of all of the videos, this seems to be a promise that we will ultimately be pleased by what we see. Or, on the other hand, a forewarning that we will be ultimately changed for the worse, and will find solace in the sordid acts the 'cubists' commit.

Vid 2:

WHY DO YOU HATE?
YOU ARE ILL
WE JUST WANT TO FIX YOU

A question implying either that; hate is wrong, and the following statements alluding to the fact that we won't hate anymore at the end of this, or, that we hate for the wrong reasons, or we don't hate enough, and that this will be remedied in the end.

Vid 3:

WHAT HIDES IN YOUR MIND?
WE HAVE ALREADY SEEN IT

Another implication of something sinister lurking beneath the surface, and the idea that it is already known, for better, or worse.

Vid 4:

YOU CAN LOSE EVERYTHING
NOTHING IS PRICELESS

This one seems more like a warning than anything. The nothing is priceless makes me think of things one would normally consider priceless; moments, memories, etc, although life on a grander scale, amny things to be taken from this video.

Damn nice work, guys! I wish I was able to get on the internet more over the weekends. Sad
Been looking at Juan's blog. Weirdness. Did anyone make anything of this:

"PS: People from unfiction forums: Really, this got nothing to do with TWI. Try StillLooking4U in youtube."

Love the Mask story, too, on The Happy Cube. I am not really sure where this is going. Viral marketing? ARG Game? Performance Art?

*Edit* -- Just realized that Big Johnny's cryptic post above is a reference to Juan's Blog. Towards the bottom of the page, there are some photos of what looks like a cemetery and a gate, and the words (run through Google translator, so who knows if they are right?) say something to the effect of:

"I left a message in the entrance of the Seat First of May. Although they are only four letters, is something important. They already know, semendebuey (it entrances) gmail.com"

I have contacted him, and I can assure you, he is working hard to discover what is going on.... Wink

(It's me)

Earlier, the PM told us that contacting Jamie would be important (In the responses to the "Three questions" on the blog at http://warningunknownvideos.blogspot.com/ ) So I sent a message, it was read, no reply. So I posted something in the comments, hoping to lure him in. Gotten a couple of questions about it, but since on the same place he also told us he doesn't want the videos getting into the wrong hands, I have been pointing them to the blog at blogspot.)

I'm working on a "story so far" but the JUAN thing threw me. Now that we have proof JUAN isn't IG, I suddenly have newfound motivation to go through 30 more pages of responses and notes and webpage links.

Just an audience member guys, but... If there are nine brothers and nine sisters, and the nine sisters are Interlopers, would that make the PM one of the nine brothers?

I'm... So confused. And the plot isn't going anywhere.

I'll check back in now and then, but I don't think I'm really 'playing' this one anymore. Good luck, guys. Smile

I wish we had a name for Him...but I can't come up with anything. Why not something simple....like Steve. First order of business when he's communicating with us again: ask him his name.

At least the bad guy in the story knocked. That was kind of polite. But I don't see any connection to the masks we wear. Unless The Knocking Man is the same person who wore the Mark "Mask."
