Trapped - I got the same e-mail with the same wording exceopt for the automated Dear Mr. XXXXXX at the top.

[Trapped Under Ice]

there are posts in other threads that are exactly the same. not many though from what i have seen.

I received the same response, Trapped. My documents aren't legit, so we'll see if this filters me out. But I did take the time to invent a reasonable sounding business (Phil 'n' go Gas Stations), and fabricate some spiffy documents. I want a slusho machine, dammit!

I told them I had a cart outside of a homeless shelter and that I buy food and drinks of different kinds to give to them and that it wouldn't hurt to be charitable. I don't think it worked.

[Nighthawk]

Seems like they're only answering to people that make a conscious effort to play along, either through real corporate documents or through fabricated ones. The flat out absurd ones are being tossed aside.

Frankly, I like that approach. Gives the atmosphere more substance.

 Re: Tagruato Distribution Email

[buildingblock]

I know its not really possible with the links and everything... but wouldn't it be funny if Tagruato Corp and Slusho were actually real life companies in Japan, with nothing at all to do with cloverfield?

Lol they would be all like "who the hell are all these randoms sending us all these job e-mails? Whatever we're doing, its working!" "ever since that guy from the props department on that new movie decided to chuck one of their actors in one of our shirts, its been all good ever since. Alot of them have been fake though... so we've had to ask for documents of authenticity for the businesses. Tons of hits on our new site as well"

lol

Again I know its not possible because, for example, the clues sent out with the slusho t's etc.... but just a funny thought I was pondering.

Speaking of which I really don't think we have paid enough attention to those clues that came with the shirts (the Japanese newspaper clippings?). They should have provided clues, not just lead to dead ends like they did; they basically gave us nothing, possibly because I don't think we spent enough time analyzing them. Maybe we should backtrack a bit? See if we've missed anything?
