 What if it's TIDOwave, not Tagruato?!
O.o

I mean, think about it now. Alyse called out TIDOwave and blamed them for not taking her brother into account. To me it seems like Tagruato aren't the bad guys. Maybe TIDOwave are the ones framing Tagruato for their past bad deeds, only to cover-up their experiments on the parasites and trying to catch Clover for their own use. I know that in the Cloverfield: Kishin manga, we could clearly see a Tagruato tanker carrying the monster. But we never really understood WHY they had attained and captured it. Where was it taking it and for what purpose?

TIDOwave just seems like a suspicious bunch where it has a bunch of blind followers. Of course, that would be the obvious attributes to any eco-terrorist group..or should I say, cult. That's right. TIDOwave aren't the people whom you think they are. Why would they suddenly abandon and not further acknowledge the whereabouts of one of their missing members?

After the 17th of January they went into hiding, commenting about how 'mother' will protect and watch over them. They seemed to have been talking about a monster or a deity, not mother nature. At least, that's what I believe. Doesn't it at all seem strange? Maybe we're missing something in the ARG. Something just doesn't seem right about TIDOwave.

Alas, something to think about. What do you think?

I still think TIDOwave are the good guys. I dont think they just left Teddy behind, the guy who posted on the TIDOwebsite ("To MissingTeddyHanssen. There's no help coming. Stop your campaign. There's nothing here.") was probably put there by John Garreti or some other person who wasn't involved with TIDO. Yeah that would mean the site was hacked, just like they put the sword on the website.

i gotta agree with sander. TIDO is definitely the good guys in this storyline, or at least the people who are trying to expose tagruato for what they really are. On the other hand, part of what melodyman said is right. I think that your putting way more thought into the game than the puppetmasters are putting into it, only in that i highly doubt that they would put that many twists into the story line. The mystery of the whole thing is enough, i they made it pretty clean cut on who the good guys and the bad guys are. Nice theory though Smile

I wouldn't be suprised if TIDO somehow was responsible for pissing MGP and (subsequently) the destruction of Chuai

Yeah but why would TIDO say: Stop your campaign, that makes no sense.

Agreed. I think TIDO have good intentions but are essentially shit disturbers. Kind of like PETA. Their fight is a good cause, but the way they go about it is aggravating.

TIDO was there at the time that monster woke up, so you could have a point. Hopefully we will find out more about this.

Haha this is starting to bug me now. If Tag had known about MGP for a long time and that was the reason Chuai was built (researching MGP, getting seabed nectar from him/parasites/whatever) then it would be fair to assume that Tag had the situation under control to the extent of the Chuai disaster. You could say TIDO was responsible because they could have shown up to Chuai to protest against something else (on the TIDO website they say something about noise pollution in the ocean because of Tag and how whales essentially starved to death because of it so maybe they were there to stop that?) and instead they found out the secret Tag was hiding and literally blew it out of the water. That's one way to look at it.

Thats a possiblity, but we know Tagruato did have contact with the monster and the parasites not saying Tidowave couldnt of woke him up, just saying Tagruato discovered him and used him and or the parasites to make a profit.

I'm just trying to bring some discussion since every other thread in this goddamn section of the Unforums happens to be related to someone else's death. If you don't like it, fuck off and don't bother posting. If you don't want to contribute, then do me a favor and leave. I'd like to offer theories every now and then. Whether they have some credibility to it or not, that's up to people to decide.

Oh wait, 'Shut up' seems to be something a troll would say on a message board.

Haha, okay then. No one feed the troll from this point on. Wink
