 		MissingTeddyHanssen blog
Teddy's sister Alyse Hanssen
Posted in another thread, but maybe it deserves its own?


http://missingteddyhanssen.blogspot.com/


I found it because of this comment on the TIDO site:
That's what I thought. You're pathetic. And if you think I'm giving up on my brother you're stupider than I gave you credit for. Anyone who's tired of being lied to should come to my blog. We have to stick together. There are more people out there affected by this. I can't be the only one.

Just guessed and went with missingteddyhanssen @ blogspot.

 		I'm calling OOG, but only because I don't think they would use Blogspot to make a site.

 		I'm calling IG. It just seems like this is going to tie up a lot of loose ends.

Why wouldn't they use Blogspot? They made MySpace profiles.

I know these boards are quick to call everything OOG (remember how long it took for people to admit that TIDO and tag were IG). But seriously...It's kind of hard to deny when the last TIDO post says:

To MissingTeddyHanssen.
There's no help coming. Stop your campaign.
There's nothing here.

And the ONLY comment that they've allowed (because comments at the TIDO site have to be approved by an admin) says:
That's what I thought. You're pathetic. And if you think I'm giving up on my brother you're stupider than I gave you credit for. Anyone who's tired of being lied to should come to my blog. We have to stick together. There are more people out there affected by this. I can't be the only one.

AND the blog started in March, while the missing poster was posted April 1.

If this isn't it, then that means we still need to find MissingTeddyHanssen's blog.

Just sayin'....

WTF?! Seriously?! Animal testing? The Messiah?

Is she some kind of nutjob or what?

I believe she (I assumed it was Teddy's brother not his sister) was just letting off steam and being an a-hole. Read the next entry, she apologizes for saying and was just pissed that no one has helped her yet.

 		I never said it was OOG, I said I'm calling OOG. Meaning if it ever turns out to be OOG, I was the first to say it.

I just don't know why they would use Blogspot instead of just making a site. But I suppose it could be for the realism.

 		She was being sarcastic.


I have to go ahead and call shenannigans...it seems like something that would be really easy to do to gamejack. Maybe the admins allow comments that are mostly cryptic? This has a fair chance of being IG, but until there's real authentication of it, say, leading to another viral site that is more easily verifiable, I'm going to say OoG.

Good point. The post dated March 22nd says "Mom took Teddy's picture off the mantelpiece. I don't know where it is." So perhaps that's their mom's (Janice?) picture that ended up on the missing poster.

 		I'm calling IG, i think the TIDO post was a way of politely shoving us in the right direction, her posts clearly show that its been up a while with no one looking at it.

EDIT:

PROOF (maybe):

we discovered the 1-18-08. com pic of the Teddy Missing Poster on April 1,

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=24978

the first post on the blog is from March 20.

see above post

I would say that anyone can post comments on TIDO, but the fact that hers is the only comment says otherwise.

I'm starting to lean towards IG. I think we were probably suppose to find the blog a while back, but since we just weren't getting it, they put that comment up as a clue.

 		Yes, anyone can make a post on TIDOWave, but comments don't automatically appear on the site once they're made - they have to be approved by the PM's. This weeds out the people who intentionally mention "Cloverfield". It's hard to believe that they'd approve comments from someone they'd have to know was a gamejacker. Then there's that tiny little reference to the poster they made in a previous update...

Being that MissingTeddyHanssen specifically mentioned a blog in her last comment would lead me to believe that the site is IG. Just as the MySpace profiles added legitimacy to the characters being ordinary everyday people, this blog adds that bit of realism they need for this new character. They even picked the most generic blog template available from Blogger. It's clear they're trying to stress the realism.

However, the last post was made on April Fool's Day. But I'm sure that's just a little "wink, wink" on behalf of the PM's.

Seems more is pointing to it being IG than OOG, so there ya go. Should prove to be an interesting next coming of weeks. "Successfully concluded"? "Archive"? PFFT!

 		Blogspot is SO easy to fake, though.

they have never used Blogspot... why now?

it's free to make and easy to manipulate the dates.

every other single Blogspot that has been connected has been deemed OOG and gamejacking.

I will check in on it as I wait to see what cloverfieldfiles.com brings us, but there's no overwhelming evidence to make this even remotely IG for me.

Aside from the fact that TIDOWave.com approved a comment from an IG poster and she mentioned a blog, huh?
