What? No no no. You misunderstood me.

When you click on the facts about Tagruato on that board, the "fact" includes some katakana which, I assume, is supposed to be a placeholder for Tagruato or something of the like.

Hmmm an interesting site, and its conflicting.

Im gonna bring up a few points.

1) The Gmail accounts may be possible because this isnt a company as much as it is a group. The reason we previously had domain name emails is because they were companies. So I think its hard to use this as evidence for either side....still why use gmail?

2) The name makes no sense. TIDOO fits 'Tagruato is Destroying out oceans' where as TIDOwave means nothing, and seems and inventive name to FIT the hack. What does the TIDO stand for?

3) The contact details for Tagruato? Why put them on the site, granted it may be so that people send them leters and emails, but either way I find it...off.

4) No Urchin tracker.

If I find more, ill post it.

Yeah i noticed the katakana thing, especially since they quote Tag in roman characters in the end..so do those symbols truly mean Tagruato ? or is it some sort of devilish metaphorical equivalent...

regarding the tidowave name, i think there's a chance WAVE might mean something, just as D.R.A.I.N. and P.E.A.K....

Tagruato Website Hacked!


Although TIDOO would mean something (Tagurato Is Destorying Our Oceans), the numerals do spell out Tanner, Irukandji, Dumbo, Ogre, Wave.

Whois + Logical Clue = IG.

[IG] tag it.

Re: the words on the Tagruato Fun Facts: 力の手 is the original name of Tagruato, if I'm not mistaken. As seen in the history section of Tagruato's website.

Yes, but the name itself still makes no sense. It may spell it out, but I dont see why the company would call itself that, other than to name itself after the hack. Granted there may be something else, or the PM may have not thought it through.[/quote]

Made me question the hack too because it had no tracker either. If this is oog so is the hack I would say, as they both seem to be very connected. At the moment I believe it's all in game and maybe the lack of tracker is for realism and to disconnect the cause from the company but the name is interesting indeed. Where does TIDOWave come from? My Guess is it's a site set up by the organization specifically to target Tagruato, they possibly would have had other sites and names for each cause with this one being specifically for Tagruato. What exactly does TIDO stand for though "Tagruato is destroying our Wave" bit strange, but maybe?

Nice find.

Creation date seems to confirm it.

TIDOO = no, TIDOW = yes
Trouted myself with that earlier

I'm cautiously calling IG.

Let's hope there's more to come.--m0r

The history is there for you to read T.I.D.O. wave is a Tagruato-specific campaign of a larger collection of eco-warriors...

Sure looks "in game" to me. And the designer's name that comes from the CSS style sheet (Stephan Lough, http://loughcreative.com) is associated with a truckload of other movie websites and located reasonably close in Pasadena, California.

Dish the dirt on Tag's dirty deeds!

Are you a current or former disgruntled Tagruato employee? Seek revenge here! We all know Tagruato is a company that deals in corruption, pollution, greed, and good old-fashioned corporate bullying. Nothing hammers the point home better than first person testimony. Tell us about the crimes against Mother Earth you have witnessed. Describe to us what lengths they go to cut corners and save a few dollars. Documents, photos, and recordings are all welcome. TIDOWave guarantees total anonymity.


Someone needs to send a copy of those secret documents hidden in the Slusho! packages to TIDOWave.
