Phone Number

So I called the phone number, entered the code, and then I was told I was the first caller and that I would be connected when another caller calls. I thought that was weird, so I hung up. I decided to google search the number. Apparently, it's an Iowa area code, and a BUNCH of people have the same number with different access codes. This leads me to believe that the number is just a re-routing service. Given the information found on the contact page of americandistro.com, something different will happen at 7pm mountain time. Oh, and only 96 people will be able to call, or something like that.

Anyone else have any new info?

Also, how in the world did someone find out that "redflag" was the secret keyword to break the cipher? These things are addicting, but hard as heck!

Found Something On Blog Site

When I had copied and put what the previous person had said about the phone number and code, that someone had noticed something in the headline

Quote:
On 10/12/07 3:07 AM, "northdash" wrote:

>the air is clear and the birds are flying only ninety six will be admitted


Now if you notice northdash if rearranged becomes "shorthand" and notice the time being 3:07 which is when Hope received those strange phone calls from her mother...now also take notice to the quote "The air is clear and the birds are flying. Only Ninety six will be admitted." If anyone put in hope is alive in the Contact box and put pretty much anything into the reference box it clearly says that. Now also if you read in the blog a few logs down, her fiance dispells the theory of shorthand saying that he spoke with the department of journalism at her school and they tought no shorthand. Which also brings me to the scene in video 2 when the 2 gregg shorthand symbols pop up in front of her moms face that clearly says "Save Me". Yet, he says it brings him joy BUT she couldn't have if she didn't learn it. Which makes me begin to think that he's in on it because clearly thats shorthand and its no coincidence that if it really isn't shorthand that it would say "save me" it would say something entirely irrelevant to the story and clearly "save me" has alot to do with it. So I think with that I'm on to something...Anyone agree? I'm defintely gonna call that number and try to see if I'm one of the 96. Also GMT is greenwich mean time its not a US Timezone and its 4 hours ahead I believe.

GMT is 7 hours ahead of PST, 6 house ahead of MST, 5 hours ahead of CST, and 4 hours ahead of EST. So, us Californians gotta call in at midnight tonight, since the message said 07:00. I believe the zero in front means 7am. If not, at least there's another shot for the 7pm. Either way, it's tomorrow.

secret blogspot

I'm on myspace (melissa/ pokerhoney 29) and on stage 6 (mekdahl) Rolling Eyes and here. So it was posted several times by different people. But I do think it's funny that Kevin Blaine whom I've never seen on here or other sites in the last few days now shows up and creates this blogspot, posts just for this conference call, and then makes it private so the rest of us can't figure out stuff, and then disappears and doesn't help with anymore clues. But then I send him messages asking him these things and he doesn't respond... Sounds to me like he may be from the inside. Thoughts?

ppl please. This is all a hoax. there is no Hope Wilcott. it's all made up to promote this movie. kind of like the blare witch project thing. all a hoax to get money. that is all.

rack your brains on something that matters.


I'm new to all this, BUT find it very entertaining. Since no one has mentioned it yet, Head TRauma is already out. It went straight to video.

http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?pid=7256039

So, I don't think the purpose is to make money. However, I will probably be buying the DVD.

It actually is supposed to be released in theaters on 10/20----> So I'm not sure seeing that being sold is supposed to mean.

this is very interesting; i actually own a copy of Head Trauma, having picked it up at a local music store for fairly cheap, so i can confirm it is definitely out. I know it's the same movie because I recognize the still of the guy floating facedown in the water as being from it.

EDIT: holy shit, guys, on the back of the title slip it says "DEPRESSION ANGER BARGAINING ACCEPTANCE".

this actually might have clues. i'm going to search over it, i'm positive there's more.

Have you all seen the new video? It's got a lot of weird stuff in it.

It's got more weird codes!

In the video it gives a link to americandistro.com/arch/

Something to do with a picture of Eisenhower....

Also...in the video are other hidden messages.
The footage of hope walking through traffic and filling her car up with gas, pay CLOSE attention to the liscense plates. They change.

The first plate change is SMR 98.76 (Or SUI, or SUR or something...). This changes to ADC, who is the signing author of the Americandistro homepage.

Also, in the part where she is filling her gastank it shows another plate swap.

It swaps three times. First showing M3M3 then showing then showing the repetitive 307 again and suddenly changes BACK to M3M3

Also, notice the mirror scene. These is more decipherable code at the bottom of the screen. I haven't dechiphered it yet, maybe one of yall can watch the video and see what it's about.

Later in the video it shows her taking footage of herself sleeping.

If you'll pause it and watch as close to frame by frame as possible you'll notice that a dog has been superimposed onto the footage in the coloration of a negative photograph. Also, he play the footage backwards. Take the time to watch this frame by frame as well. With each lightning strike the scenery in the room changes.

First Lightning strike-Shows a four figures around Holly's bed with superimposed cartoon wolf heads in a negative coloration that put at the base of the neck and top of the shoulders of everybody around Holly's bed. The rest of the scen gets really interesting

Second lighting strike- there is a man on the right side of her, two people on the left and a person standing at the head of the bed.

There are two strikes afterwards showing the same scene. Immediately AFTER the third minor strike it displays the eye in the camera the at at the bottom of every htmob video page. The screne has more coding on it! Fun stuff!!

At one point in the video during a lighting strike it shows somebody cradling Holly's head as she sleeps

The zoom out of this strike shows a FIFTH person in the room, and clearly outlines most all five people excluding the newcomer and the person cradling holly's head.

There is a black man, a woman with a bun, and another white mal.

The person cradling holly's head has what looks to be a feminin figure.
Also, the newcomer on the right side at the foot of the bed seems more masculine...

I don't know if I was the only one that found this obvious correlation:

Someone said that she was traced to the location Mono Lake, well went on google earth and brought this image up:



which looks strinkingly similar to the outline at the end of the Something's Wrong with Mom vid that says Let Us Kill-observe:



Again this only seems to support the Mono Lake theory. Perhaps the series of numbers has something to do with that?
