can someone sumarise what they've discovered by ripping apart the glass helmets tracks/track? I'm becoming quie confused and want to know if the glass helments are relevant to the game.


I've tried with the lyrics... I haven't had much luck... I was able to remove the vocals, at least for Ockhem's Razor, but I can't seem to isolate them.

I still think there might be something to the altered ID3 tags of the mp3's, if anything.

Rally Show Cancelled
We were really looking forward to seeing you guys at the Tidowave rally next week but we had to cancel our set. There's been an accident within the band and we are currently recovering, both physically and emotionally. That's all the info we can give out at this time. Thanks to all of you who sent cards and well-wishes.

Know that this will not in any way affect the release of our next single, "Arbiter of Digressions". We're super proud of it and can't wait for your reactions. Keep checking the site for more updates!

does this mean they are IG? or just a game hack?

Still IG/OOG, that blog came after TIDOwave was discovered.

Was this posted BEFORE the blogpost on TIDOwave about a postponed event rescheduled for "the weekend of the 14th" was posted??

Then this points to TGH being IG, or just damned lucky guessing!

As for the incident in the band, could Teddy be a member??

I don't think TGH is a real band at all...

(I mean in the context of the game)

It seems like a cover.

Just seems to me like Mr. Grumpypants with the picture of Cthulhu-Kitty wouldn't make it into the top friends if they were IG, or even Red Walrus for that matter, because whoever's in charge here is more than aware of Unfiction and such.

Im not sure how myspace works, but there would be no reason for this "band" not to let people add them as friends, in context of game, who should be their "top friends"?

In the same vein, why should slusho!.jp let people send obvious "gamespeak" messages to their talk-page, and publish them, ore TIDOwave have an open blog?

Basically such things just act as an extra layer of smokescreen. Smile

TIDOwave allows comments with links to 1-18-08 fan sites in them, just saying.

You put the Glass Helmets Myspace as IG. I still see no hard evidence that it's IG.

Until one of the IG sites mentions that Myspace specifically, or mentions something from that Myspace page, we can't 100% say that it's IG.

Yes I know all about the Green Force, it's still not enough to 100% lock it down as IG.


Then Tagruato is OOG? we found it the same way. The name of the company was mentioned in a review, not the specific website..

Same with all the myspace pages, actually, the clues that got us to them never mentioned myspace, just Jamie's full name.

An in-game character mentioned the group, and that led us to thier myspace. And considering the time between release of the video and when that myspace went up I think the content was all ready to go, they were just waiting to pull the trigger on it.

Of course, if they knew us as well as we sometimes think they do, they should have put the myspace up first.. but that was probably just some intern doing the easier task (the vid post) first.

Bad example: Tagruato's domain and the MySpace pages were created BEFORE we had the necessary information to find them. Glass Helmets' MySpace was not, or cannot be verified as pre-existing before the reference in the video.

The point is, not once have we been pointed directly to a particular site

"cannot be verified as pre-existing" is irrelevant, because, by your wording, we can't verify it wasn't. The only way that would have happened was someone stumbling over the site by accident w/out a clue. And if that happened thier would have been no reason to look at it twice before the vid because nothing even connected it to the IG universe.

Since it's a Myspace page the whole 'did it exist before' argument is a straw-man, it doesnt hold up. And I think most likely, people being what they are, somebody had two tasks to do that day and did the easy one first. (ie: change webpage to add link to video 5.. go get sandwich from subway.. come back, build myspace for the band she mentions)

Besides. even if there were posts from a week before the video, there would be people here saying its OOG for that reason...
