 		I think I might have found the PM but I am not really sure. So just read if you want to have a peek behind the curtain.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Searching for "Joseph Ryan" got a hit for this vimeo account:
http://www.vimeo.com/user564196

Definitely OOG but seems like this could be our PM. There are a lot of nice videos. One of them is "What's in the box". Another one is the "Teaser Trailer for my upcoming game Here Lies Hope." with a link to a site which also seems OOG for this game.

Not sure if this Joseph Ryan is at all related to this game. Nevertheless it is a site with several ARG references.

That's odd, the Intro post wasn't password-protected before. And nope, I don't think we know the passwords yet.

Weird tweet from Joseph, but it's not the pw for any of the posts:

EDIT: Looked it up online, it's an acronym for "Search And You Will Find"

 		OK what we know so far
Joseph ryan is running this ARG
Samuel Ryan is his brother
Samuel died at the bottom of the bermuda triangle while working for the Worldwide Seafaring Administration Department (WSAD)
Joseph got news of his brother's death from a secretary that worked at WSAD and was soon fired for giving out information
WSAD is good at keeping out of the public eye.

Anything else?

Also here is the full blog post:

My name is Joseph Ryan. My brother, Samuel Ryan, died mysteriously several years ago. Since then, I have not been able to find many answers, just more questions. So now, I am asking for help.

Let me begin with the circumstances of my older brother's death. He worked for an organization called the Worldwide Seafaring Administration Department. Most likely, you haven't heard of them. Not many people have, yet they are the authorities for the world's oceans. How they keep this level of secrecy, I'll never know. But I digress.

What I know of Samuel's death comes from a report a secretary at the WSAD was kind enough to give me. She must have been new there, and was fired for it as soon as her superiors found out about.

Apparently, my brother was part of a team investigating the Bermuda Triangle. He went on a dive mission to the bottom, and never returned. What lies below, what killed him, I do not know. But that is what I want, no, need to find out.

More information will be made available to you soon.

Stay tuned.

- JR

Was using his brother's name a guess or did you find a clue I overlooked?

 		Coffee Had read the Introduction blog entry before it was locked. So using "samuel" as pw was just a lil hunch.

OK so I know someone kind of already posted a little something about the bioshock2 campaign that's going on and if this arg is not related to the bioshock one then this is just an eerie similarity. I think we should investigate this further, I'll get a jumpstart since almost everyone is asleep right now anyways!

 		This looks fun. I'm in! Smile

EDIT- New tweets from Joseph

Quote:
Both my compasses are out and I am trying to find Fort Lauderdale, Florida.


followed by

Quote:
I am over land, but it's broken. I'm sure I'm in the Keys, but I don't know how far down, and I don't know how to get to Fort Lauderdale.


I've sent him tweets with the GPS coordinates for Ft Lauderdale to see if that helps. Failing that, I've also sent him directions for using the "Overseas Highway" which runs between the islands in the Keys up to the mainland. From there, he should hopefully be able to follow the coast up to Ft Lauderdale.

*slaps head* Ok, he wasn't actually asking for directions, it was a clue, as revealed with the next tweet:-

Quote:
I know where I am now. I'm at 2,300 feet. Don't come after me.

 		Heya,Merago, nice work as usual. Now there's a new entry titled Verloren which in German and Dutch means "lost".

EDIT: removed my slow fingered solve from the thread Laughing
