The skype thing will be happening in a week. Be there or be square.
Edit: I got a message from nathan saying that the skype thing would be held tomorrow. Did anybody get that?
Yeah I got that too. Can't wait for the call.
Edit: Just got off of skype with both our mystery man and Nathan himself. Found out a few things that I'll post in a bit, and a .wav file that I'll post right now since I have no idea what to do with it. My first skype call for an ARG(or anything actually) made me nervous, but it was cool too.
Edit2: Alright here's what I got, apparently Mystery Man(who shall refer to as MM from now on) trusts Nathan a lot. MM gave me a lecture how time works, with things happening infinitely and all at once with a minute change occuring every time. This time, though there was a major change that altered the course of history. That's why he contacted us, his "Watchers". It's MM's job to watch for these kind of changes, but he can't do much without us.
Next, he told me that we had to investigate the site because we "haven't been looking hard enough". We have to look for more information that would help us piece together the past to predict the future. We have about two weeks to document our findings and present them to him. After that "it" will happen and "we'll only have a short amount time to do a series of highly coordinated moves".
Finally, he asked me if I was recording the call then he gave me the beeps that are in the file attached to this post.

Dang, I'm sorry I missed it.
Was at college all day. I guess it's time for us to dig. I'll spend a few hours at it and let you know what I find. Are we sure that all of the other members of the site are OOG?
EDIT: The only thing out of the ordinary is a comment my Michel Gaudin. It just doesn't see related to the blog post. I found a facebook profile for somebody of the same name, but I just wanted t ask here first if it is a real person :]

I don't know if everyone has seen this but its doesn't show up for me unless I look at the source code.
"Look to the past to find the path to the future."
Its in a <div> at the bottom of the page.

Nice find, I looked for ages in the source and found nothing :]
EDIT: Nathan has posted a new blog on www.chronoflow.com

Nathan also added some forums to the website, so we can post info there too. Interestingly enough he named two of them "Past" and "Future" which might tie into the hidden message at the bottom of the source.
On an unrelated note, I think the PM is reading our forums because he referenced long string of numbers as Mystery Man.

If it is, I don't know what it means. We gotta investigate more.

I'm thinking at this point it would probably be a good idea for me to switch the thread title to Chronoflow, since that's a more accurate reflection of what the game is called (past time, really). Any objections?

Maybe "watchers of the flow?"

And so it is. Hopefully everybody will still be able to find it -- I left the previous name under the description.

I found one thing that bugs me.
The ip address for chronoflow.com is 216.239.32.21 and has many other website associated to the ip, however the ip itself resolved down to any-in-2015.google.com
I dont know why this is but it bugs me.
-edit- i mean I know it could just be google hosting everything, but it still bugs me since its hard to find out for sure right now.
