 		Let me go just a little on the META side about IG/OOG:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I don't want to bring up the PM's past effort much more, but there is most likely a general rule of thumb that this will follow. In Con08, all of the sites were hosted on Moonfruit, and so far all of this ARG's sites have as well. If the site doesn't end in one of the following, it is a good bet it's OOG, or at least just reference material:
.t83.net
.kk5.org
.sm4.biz
.mfbiz.com
.moonfruit.com

 		Just playing catch up here. HELP! I'm confused.

We have a Russian Imperialist KGB unit trying to find a leak?
A wacked out UFOlogist.
A top secret modified Typhoon class submarine (Hunt for Red October) missing? sunk? located? in the S. Atlantic.
An experimental aircraft downed in Russia made with materials from S. Africa.
A Nazi eugenicist and his progeny
A Japanese whaling ship and its Eco-defender chase boat.
A Japanese? Secret society?

Maybe secret society, whaler and sub link together?

Dunno Dunce ... Coffee

It all started March 17, when members of the UnFiction Community received a cryptic email from Ilya Muromets entitled "Instructions Are Attached" simply stating "Vengeance is their duty". It contained two attachments which led us to a Russian website, apparently ran by the First Chief Directorate (a division of the KGB).
Somehow, we were granted access and a Level I clearance, which allowed us to view this 1969 video, depicting what at first seems to be a spyplane crash. But upon further investigation, it self-detonated and the remains are metals from South African mines and the technology is advanced but definitely of this world. The Russian's are sending out a call to all agents to discover who is responsible and to try to recover the technology to reclaim "superpower" status.
This information is somehow leaked to an Alien Enthusiast named Ellie, who has her own website. There, we discover her weblog and more UFO sighting videos
Now, we receive another email from Ilya Muromets stating our objective: to find the traitor who is leaking information and hand over his name.


EDIT: From the wiki

 		Damn my prophecy coming true! I said last night I'd have to trawl through 10 pages, and I'll be slapped with a spade if I wasn't spot on Razz

Well luckily I haven't missed much so far in terms of "catching up" I see, so yay for that. Seems as though there are a lot of different pieces which are seemingly unrelated, but in the time honoured fashion, will all come together in the end. Hopefully Smile

So... yeah. Funnily enough I don't even have anything to add yet, as I can't speak Russian, Chinese, Japanese, am not an alien, do not own nor have I ever owned a submarine... probably some other reasons too. The real one being I'll decide how I want to approach things first!

That's what an alien *would* say.

As far as this ARG goes, so all we need now is a liontamer and we got a circus act?

Has anyone considered to reference the given coords in the middle of the ocean to whale migratory patterns?

 		Just jumping aboard this game, I did get the 3 emails from this mysterious person asking for the traitor. I also emailed Alienslove...

OOG: Since LGLabs ended I think I'll get into this. Since Gate Reaction is getting boring.
