 		sam tyler
hello evryone, im new to arging, and have been watching the forums for while now, trying to get my head around it all.

anyway, dont know if any of you know, but sam tyler was in a show called life on mars in britain,

he was a policaman , who was in an accident, and and wakes up in the 1970's the point was, he didnt know what was real, if he was in a coma, or had gone back in time,

dont know if it will help, but thought it was a bit of a coincidence

I checked to see if they were stegged but they test negative.


Woah, I'm lacking some software!
What program do you use to test stegs?

StegSpy2.1 for jphide, StegDetect for jphide.
With Camouflage you can see if it's stegged by opening up the image in Notepad. I haven't found any program that will accurately find a Camouflaged steg.

If you open the Camo example in this Tutorial you'll see what I mean. Look at the bottom after it's opened and you'll see white space with a few black characters.

Kags, that is a big coincidence. Good find. Smile

Wow, that IS good.

 		It is already too late. Something big is going down when they get to R.F.'s wife.

 		Oh no...
I don't think there was anything we could've done.
But maybe he didn't do anything as bad as we think.
I'm going to ask.

 		A quick theory
Lo all,

I'm new to ARGing but have been drawn into this. The more I read it, the more I am reminded of the movie Identity. I really do believe that Sammy, R.F. Greg, and the Twitcher could all be the same person. My main question is, 'Is R.F. the Red King subject?' I know at this point that it is somewhat farfetched, but to me it seems plausable. One thing that leads me to believe this is the comment by Greg that "Sammy is back in town." It seems that he may know much more than he has related to both R.F. and us.
Also, the nightmares and hallucinations, once again this is my opinion, could be caused by latent psychic (telepathy, telekinesis, etc) powers awakened by the RKP that also caused the psychotic break that resulted in R.F.'s MPD. As to why only Sammy is experiencing these powers, there have been cases of MPD in which one personality exhibited skills that the others had never shown such as musical or artistic talent. I believe this to be the case here. As I said, I'm new to ARGing so please be patient with me.

Thanks,

Ender

What happened?

 		I am watching this thread for a couple of days now. As far as I can see at the moment this is a very 1-sided story. What I mean to say is that we (as players) didn't accompish much. We didn't find new sites, we didn't progress the story. So... what is the goal ? We are only spectators in a strange story. Throw us some bones !

It's not so bad if you think of it as interactive fiction, although a bit more player interaction would be nice.

 		Hey all unifictioners, I've been watching the Red King Project for a while, and I can't help agree with the above poster's mention of somekind of schizophrenic main character. It's just a feeling, but I have seen alot of movies and such where you aare kept in the dark till the end. I'm not saying this is a movie, and the PM so far has proved to be a great writer, so it is not the most prominent explanation, but it is plausible. As for the website or next step, I'm in the dark like the rest of you.

Been lurking on this one awhile too. Thought I'd mention that this blog was stumbled upon - in other words, there wasn't a typical trailhead/puzzle to kick things off. So, at this point, we don't really know if this even IS an ARG. It's possible this may turn out to be nothing more than a really good, slightly interactive read.

On one hand, I agree that more interaction would be fun, but on the other hand the author has totally kept me in suspense and I'd hate to mess with a good thing. I'm content to sit back and let him/her take me wherever they want with this one!

 		I actually perfer a story that is more about character development than trails laden with puzzle after puzzle simply because some of the more mathematical puzzle types are not a strong suit for me. Still, I'm with the rest of you that it would be nice for us "players" to have impact on plot direction and character.

 		I guess we can assume that things didn't go well or we would have another post by now. I wonder if this is the end of the story. Confused
I have been hoping for an email from Sammy, but nothing there either.

 		Yeah...things have been quiet in my e-mail box, too.
I doubt it's over, though. At least I hope it isn't. Sad
It could very well be entering another phase...
