TIDOwave being scapegoated for whatever happened at Chuai certainly seems to be the way they are going with the new TIDOwave.com update. I don't think TIDO is infiltrated per se, looks more like they're being hunted down by TAG agents.

Tido's latest blog seems to state matter-of-factly "HEY, TAG'S HERE!"

Like Tag made that one person post saying to come back while Randy appears to be posting from a remote location. The Internet is a wonderful thing.

Thanks right where I was thinking too.


New Tidowave post....

"January 05, 2008

Do NOT return to The Farm. It's crawling with agents on Tagruato's payroll.
It's a set up!!! All of our members know our goals and motivations are preservation of Mother Earth - NOT mass murder!!! Granted, we're not upset that Tagruato has one fewer "death station", but we would NEVER kill to accomplish our goals. […]"


Well it looks like maybe some of this theory might actually pan out. Look like they have been infiltrated and are baiting ppl to come in....

It's cool to read this thread after we've seen the "broadcasting news".
And somehow it could be plausible.
I mean, perhaps it was just bad timing: while TIDO activists, searching for Teddy&Co. arrived on Chuai and were arrested (why not?) by the Tagruato privat army, the monster was awaken and also arrived.

Big crossover, I'd say.

Then Tag's ninjas has more jobs to do and finally Tagruato workers escapes. (Perhaps leaving TIDO people on the crushing drilling station?). Shocked

And the Tag's agent write in TIDO blog: "Nothing there, no station" and later "Don't come back to The Farm (whatever and whereever it is)".
I mean, if Tagruato has Whistle Blower, why not the other way round?

2) TAG learns the location of TIDOWAVE headquarters and captures our unknown member. They coerce him to send out a message to all sleeper cells to in order to capture as many TIDOWAVE members as possible.("They told me to post here.") He slips in the message as a warning. (I'm the only one here right now.)

edit to add tag ~rose


All though I believe TIDO and TAG is just a very small part of the movie to come, yet contradictory, is still a VERY big part of the game we have been playing and will continue on even after the movie.
I believe his theory holds a very good portion of water, if not exactly on.
The above paragraph he written makes the most sense of all, "someone" is telling him to post here, yet he the only one there? Shocked And then continuing on to the next posting is another stating that TAG spies are everywhere and not to go back to the farm?
I believe true and true that h311b3nt's theory is right on the nose.
Props to you! Very Happy

Well, here's a theory for you...what if Randy DID call, and we've already seen the entire conversation?

IDK if anyone's thought of it already, but after Jamie called Tagruato, someone called her back...but no one said it was the same person that called back. What if that was Randy's call?


The person on the phone with Jamie didn't speak "American". If Randy was to contact Jamie, he would have to speak English.

THanks I am Blushing....while some of my ideas seem to not have it other still seem plausible. I just hope they play out this "Janice" twist. The ARG seems to be losing steam now that the spoiler reviews are hitting the internet. Even though I have regrettably read a spoiler review, I still love to see this ARG all the way through.

i think so, i mean im reallyhoping that not everyone has read the spoilers, and im hoping JJ doesnt give up because all this new stuff has just come out. He cant just start this and go nowhere with all these websites, can he? i would actually like to this whole thing extend even past the movie and really getinto wut the monster is, unless heplanson doingsoon very soon. I ahve my doubts about his ambition with this now that thespoilers are out, and that its been pretty much two days since anything relevant ARG-wise was released...TIMES A-WASTIN' JJ...dont leave us hanging forever Shocked

For those of us that have control and realize that the work to get where you wanted is more valuable then getting there, yes, it does matter.

Thus the meaning of a GAME.

Truthfully I find it rather dishearting to see everyone just go and read the spoilers and give up on the ARG. Why even play the game to begin with? It seems so similar to a bunch of kids at Christmas time trying to find out what the present is under the tree then just give up and rip it open anyways.

No sense of duty or self control.

Yes, this is depressing. In a way, I feel like a boob for still looking for IG updates and so forth, knowing that there are apparently complete descriptions of the movie in other threads. I've read some of the not so spoiler-ish reviews (like Harry Knowles) and the production notes, but I've avoided the big "I saw the movie" thread. I used to check this forum umpteen times a day, but now I don't even feel like coming around.

And now the game, which seemed to be building to a fever pitch, goes quiet for several days. As excited as I am still about seeing the movie, I'm starting to feel let down by the game, and I get the sense that those that have seen or spoiled the movie have learned reasons for no longer caring.

Sad

I believed up till this week that tagruato was bad & tido was the good guys....now??? Unless they do provide us with more clues/background/history what ever you want to call it...do we know for sure 100% that MGP attacked Chuai or was it Tidowave? Need that worker guy staring at the flames saying "Grumpypants,Grumpypants" to confirm he attacked Chuai.

I'm still gonna come here everyday for probably next 2-3 weeks to see if clues are still coming out.

Have faith!

I read the spoilers & encourage you NOT to! I also would like to encourage the people posting them here to stop. (or possibly move them elsewhere for now?) I also was following/checking every hour for updates in the game; which has apparently stopped updating after the last photo on 1-18-08.com. Hopefully more is to come in this game & will reveal the true origin of MGP & what went on at Chuai & how MGP gets to NYC. Maybe the "game" will eventually provide the true origins or a backstory to MGP???
