I realize that you're a player who has connections, but it would be helpful for you to seperate the two spheres, as using your connection to the PM to hint at incoming content ruins the air of mystery around the videos.

 		Checking the frames On "Malfunction" -the map zooms to around Oxford, Ohio. With that stated: that exact location, the mentioning of Project Saphire & TataniumLegman having contact with the PM, -to me this looks like the latest iteration/creation/off-shoot of Bookerville/SignalAntenna/TylerGreek.

@TitaniumLegman: IMHO you should stop dropping hints & just let future IG events just happen. I read about this sort of thing in Bookerville & it didn't work out for the best. Just a thought...

ETA: XD umm yeah what Gregoriev just said

That was my hunch, being that Project Sapphire was a site/mention in Bookerville and I believe it was used in TylerGreek as well. I didn't know SignalAntenna was also in the series.

I wouldn't consider myself "entrenched" by any means and am not familiar with these ARGs, but I was really excited to be around for the start of this one. Will I need knowledge of these past games to keep up with this one ya think?

Well, Bookerville was about meteor bits filled with aliens landing in Bookerville, Ohio. Sounds quite like this. In contrast, Tyler Greek was about a military program following a conflict with supersoldiers. Well, probably not quite that, I didn't pay too much attention to that ARG, but that was the gist of it (correct me if I'm wrong). So you'll probably want to just know the type of ARGs the PM makes more than any specific knowledge. And if specific previous knowledge is brought up, I think one of the players of those previous games will be more than willing to help the newer players by bringing them up to speed.

sorry, I guess i'm just excited about finally finding a game that i have a chance to get involved in, and when i get involved in something new, i usually get a little out of control. I'll mellow soon. Again, I'm highly sorry -_-

EDIT: And now the new vid did just come out, I just randomly checked Youtube so please don't yell at me. Anyway, the first thing i saw was this

at the very beggining of the info is a line that says "lookatthereflection.blogspot.com" which is a real site.

http://lookatthereflection.blogspot.com/

the apparent name of the computer's user is Tyler.

There is some other text that i am unsure if it is important or not.

Then there is the symbol at the end that say's Hive Matrix

I'm checking out the website now

 		Posted a comment on the blog...interesting discussion of an alternate timeline.

Hopefully this goes somewhere fun - I haven't really participated in an ARG in a while.

 		Also, I did a google search for "Technology Resolute", the company our blogger worked for, and came across this: http://www.trcorporation.net/

EDIT: The source code had an interesting note in it that vanishes when I try to put it under spoiler tags. I'm not sure what to make of that.

I saw that too. I'm not the most tech savvy person; does anyone else know if there's a way to mess around with videos found on youtube and try to separate possible different layers?
