there's a link on the myspace to E.Y.E. which is a youtube account - http://ca.youtube.com/user/EYE04012009 with one video uploaded 2 days ago.

with 'coming soon' and 04012009, looks like whatever it is will start April 1.



New video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wG6TRW0gYKE

from the myspace -
"Can E.Y.E. be trusted?" links to the youtube channel

So, watching for April 1, 2009 it seems...

 		Here's to hoping for an intriguing story, rather than an April's fool.

Also.. in the first video from youtube, it seems the audio is reversed after 00:19. Anyone figured out what the audio track would be like once re-reversed ?

I reversed it and the phrase is "Come with me, you're gonna be so proud. Don't stay behind." So it's just part of the earlier music reversed.

 		New video ?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWMyc0SMuBM&feature=channel_page

includes an email address: EyeCanHelpYouSPLATgmail.com

Got a quick reply back

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

E.Y.E. am coming soon...

Revisit http://www.youtube.com/EYE04012009
soon and you might found out where E.Y.E. am.

If you're bored, read this in the meantime:
http://adamfhperry.blogspot.com

Also, watch out for T.S.O. as E.Y.E. do not
know whether they can still be trusted.
http://www.myspace.com/thesecretorganisation


Keep in touch...


E.Y.E


A question related to some of the stuff above:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

As far as the http://adamfhperry.blogspot.com there's an intro entry and an entry regarding the disappearing colony of Ranaoke Island. Whiel the entries are in english, there are parts of the blog in another language, such as
"Geplaatst door Adam F.H. Perry op 7:02 "
Is that Dutch ? Anyone can translate ? I wonder if the posts on the blog were made today.


Coincidentally, the audio track on this video might need some analysis as well, if anyone has the knowledge/tools/time.

In the meanwhile, I dropped a comment on the linked blog, under the post regarding the Lost Colony of Ronaoke Island. I've heard of the Lost Colony before but don't know much aside from what is readily available online... anyone else has any info that could link the Lost Colony to EYE ?

 		Ooh, I think I'll be keeping an (excuse the pun) eye on this.

I've been lurking on a few ARGs in the past and it's exciting seeing one that's obviously in the very early stages. Smile

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
As for the Adam F.H. Perry blog, those auxiliary texts are most probably Dutch, I think. I'm German, not Dutch, but I'm able to get the gist of them - nothing there except the usual "Be the first to follow this" or "post a reply".


Edit - put a spoiler patch onto the last bit, just to be sure.

 		Oooooohhh, sounds like maybe a mass disappearance kinda thing. Isn't that what happened with the colony? There have been several mass disappearances in recorded history that are still unexplained. Guess I'll be lurking this one, too, along with SIC. In fact, the premise of SIC is something is coming, while the premise to date of this is EYE am coming...possible connection??? Haven't looked for connections in the source yet...my bad!

Thank you. I agree with the transcript.. almost sounds like there's two voices repeating the same, slightly overlapping, a male and a female voice ?

The date they are both counting down to (Apr 1st) made me wonder about possible connection as well. For now, though, there's nothing else that clearly ties the two Sad

 		NEW BLOG
I sent a friend request to topsecretorganization's myspace page along with a short message asking how he knew if he could trust anyone. He accepted and sent this message back:

Quote:

Subject: Not sure who to trust.

Body:
Hi Cow A. Bella.
You are right.
Currently we don't know who to trust, so we go with our gut instinct. Be sure to check the blog we posted today.

T.S.O.


Here is the blog and my comment:

February 10, 2009 - Tuesday


We need your help
Current mood: anxious
Category: News and Politics




I have never been good at writing, but desperate situations call for desperate measures.

The article on our page is from, hopefully, an alternative future.
I know that's very hard to believe, but you have to trust me.

It is up to us to prevent this future.
The Croatoan virus is dangerous.
Its original creator was murdered.
The good doctor wanted to destroy the virus when he found out about its side effects.
Unfortunately for him, there was more money in the side effects.
Greed is such a powerful motivation, isn't it?

Soon you will understand.

But for now we are on a mission.

Our first objective is to expand the organisation.
We need your help for this. Spread the word on us, but
be discreet (and cautious). We are, after all, a secret organisation.
Contact only those who you know can be trusted.
Make sure they join us.
The more allies we gain, the safer we all will be.
I trust your judgement.

Our second objective is to find out whether E.Y.E. can still be trusted.
He used to be a powerful ally, but he went AWOL and we don't know his agenda.

I suggest you keep an eye on E.Y.E.

Keep in mind that I can only provide you with more info when we are with more people. There's power in numbers, right? So, make sure you invite people to this temporary myspace of us. We need to get organised!

i am humbled that you place such TRUST in me. DANTE's inferno couldn't stop me from helping. i think i know WHERE TO FIND trustworthy friends.

Posted by COW A. BELLA on February 10, 2009 - Tuesday - 7:37 PM

There is a hidden message in the blog and a link (as yet unexplored) to EYE.

Hope I posted this properly. All help/advice accepted gratefully!

Edit: Removed spoiler patch. Thanks degravedi

 		..created a myspace account so that I could follow Cowabella's steps.
No reply yet, but I'll let oyu know if anything differs.

Now... T.S.O. = The Secret Organization
E.Y.E. = [no clue]

Whom to trust, whom to trust.. the plot thickens - I'll have trouble counting down all the way to April, I hope we get some pregame intrigue in the next few days Very Happy

 		The blog that E.Y.E. mentioned has been updated!
(Q to the veterans - wouldn't it be okay to drop the spoiler patches for that link?)

I'd like to drop a comment there, but I'm a bit unsure about what to write. The only thing I can think of is offering help if he needs it. Any further ideas/suggestions?

I have no clue as to the proper protocol to drop spoiler tags, sorry Sad

Also, comments were added to the initial post on the Adam Perry blog, by 'Secret' and by 'Dante' ( !!! )

Definitely need some help on the language here:
