Yes, I realize the whois was covered on the first 3 pages of this thread - I was on it too then, but by page 3 this topic got jacked by the Ethan Haas thing and while it *was* covered already that the phone number for Pike and Kelvin whois info (1-18 site) resolved to the airfield, the person who came in on page 3 pointing out that the same whois info is ALSO on the Transformers Sectorseven.org site is the same got trampled under foot. As if this was totally irrelevant when it's glaringly linked. Why this is getting glazed over is curious to me. It's your starting gun, smoking gun, your first solid proof that there's some argishness going on. Dismissing it as useless *because* the info is fake is missing the damn point.


The thing I was pointing out was the phone numbers are ALSO the same - and that means the same people are behind it. The Henry Kelvin clue points back to Abrams and LOST, Albert Pike points to Transformers/S7.

Question: what do they have in common?

ARGS.

Connect the dots. Picture: ARGS.

That IS the clue pointing out this 1-18 site, hidden like it was and already there waiting on somebody, complete with visitor tracker proving it (and keep in mind 1-18 was created in March. ALL they did to this site was make a black page and add one photo...in FOUR MONTHS? That aint a "site"...the WHOIS info being linked up this way is the clue that suggests this IS an ARG....and it's getting lost and sidetracked and hijacked by the Ethan Hass crap that likely hasn't got anything to do with 1-18.

For every post about 1-18 and what's up there, 5 more show up trying to present us all with breaking news it might be related to Ethan Haas, or speculating on how they came from the future and formed a resistance against aliens - when nothing about 1-18 has so far indicated anything about aliens or all that. The Ethan stuff is like trying to link it to 1-18 instead of finishing what this thread started.

That was the main question IS THIS AN ARG OR NOT?

Before we made it to page 3 in just trying to determine that, it was hijacked. The above information that I've pointed to several times now to keep it as a frame of reference here for the above question, is what should be considered legitimate clues. Of course it's fake information. Not the point. Point is the same identical fake information is used two places on two different sites, that just happened to have a release date back to back 5 days ago...and both of them are directly linked to known ARGishness.

So that should clear up this IS likely gonna be an ARG style game here and not just some viral marketing. Otherwise it would have more of that professional quality style marketing nuance to it, like Pirates and DV Code. The LOST arg didn't show up out of a cereal box with a flash game. Nobody knew there was one til they called a phone number or managed to look up the hidden websites....which is the MO here for 1-18.

I agree with the above that we should be looking at 1-18 and the clues on there. That's why we ended up here to begin with.

RE sectorseven - I did log in day before yesterday using deceptibots pw and checked out the stuff there, which looked to me like various files regarding incidences with the d-bots. But it's still active, stuff is still there...and maybe that game will continue since they're already working on T2 sequel.

Only one thing I can add at this point

Consipiracy nuts was perhaps a bit condescending, so I apologize for that. I just don't buy that it's one face split in two.

Now, I'll grant that that picture of Caplan isn't great, but I've got uninitiated folks who saw hwe on the Class that recognized her as the hispanic-looking girl in the first 1-18-08 pic. I'm not saying you have to be convinced it's her, just saying I am. The only reason I posted is because I saw that someone ran the face through a celebrity recognition system of some kind further up.

As a better analogue, look here: http://www.circa1978.com/catch/ehwr/. Caplan shows up at :12 in the trailer, says "What is this for?." Note the eyes and the hair. Nose looks different 'cause of the angle, but I think it's a good enough match.

No problem It's like the demon thing - once you see it, it's hard to not see it.

I was probably already watching the video again while you posted ;-p The audio is fuzzy for me and 3 places I would seriously like to know what is being said.

at 0.36 after the girl says it sounds like an animal, there's a guy saying something and then what sounds like "everything" but not sure.

at 0.46 when they're coming out on the roof, the group standing there, some guys are saying something, just before it moves to Rob and whoever saying he should've left town earlier.

at 1.16 to 1-18 about, after its alive.huge, some guy is louder, saying something at 1.16, sounds like he repeats it...and then another roar happens and the flying SOL head.

I can't make any of that out. Anybody able to pull out a clearer audio or make out what it says at all?

As for me personally, I'm leaning toward the theory that since this was done in Blair Witch mode, and since the site presents one still shot timed at 12:36A and then couple days later adds a second one timestamped 12:01A, and that Rob's drink pic takes place before the monster attack, and the distressed chick happens half hour later, that it's flashbacking, but more that it would be a case of piecing it together from recovered videocamera footage after the fact....and for the site, using still shots might be frames from the same videocamera, or might instead be pictures from a digi camera or cell phone camera that is found.

Like after the event, the cameras are discovered and the gist is to figure out what happened (to NY, to the nation, to the world, to the planet, etc), when, who was involved, what their story was through what these people experienced. Not so much people from the future coming back, but being in the future looking back via the footage - along with local info/lore, like Blair Witch. Like all the people at Rob's party, even Rob maybe, end up dead, save but one - possibly the girl in pic 1, but she's lost it, traumatized and only gets out bits of stuff that regard what happened, the rest is pieced together via the footage....somebody finds, or that she's clutching to or something "after" it's all said and done?

If this is a game then those photos are relevant the way they were presented....the timestamp is obvious, but they are presented in reverse order, the tick/rotating business could be pointing to the clock ticking forward or counter, directing us to keep an eye on a timeline of events.

12:01 Rob and friends are still obliviously partying. It's midnight into January 18?

Some point after this the party is disrupted.

12:36 is half an hour later, and the girl/s distressed. This shot is curious because who took it? Why such an angle as to get one eye of each girl (or if it was 2, why alter it, etc).

Also I noticed there's a time jump in the trailer, even tho there wasn't a timestamp showing on the screen. There's a split from the party to the first roar...and at the end, after the disruption flashbacking to the guy saying it'll be the best night ever. This is also one of the reasons I tend to lean toward a story in flashback....they're presenting things out of time sequence....nonlinear....and that's what BW did....

If it's not what they have in mind, oh well...but that's about all we got to work with and apparently nobody's found much hidden in the flash pics. If they're presenting it from the POV of the group, and in flashback, then trying to glean a story from the stills might be the game itself.

Never know but it's intriguing. Why would they give us 2? Those two. Are these two people connected in the story? Or is it just pointing out the timeframe window?

The Girl

[tinag222]

What specifically did you do to it outside switching it around?

I ask because in your version the left one has smeared eye makeup and the one on 1-18 doesn't - only the one on the right is smeared.

[JHarmon]

I relistened and here's what I got

[rucker]

[theonetruebix]

You could probably take half of MY face, looking up wide-eyed in terror, put it next to that and put smeared makeup on me, and it would match up.
