[JAFOOL] Is this the End-Game?

Almost Time?

This is a particularly frightening post in the JAFOOL series.

This indicates that we're almost at the end of the game.

And we still don't know what the fuck we're supposed to be doing.


EDIT: The post



Obviously, he's in the same place. The ladder is closer, and it's definitely a ladder. He's naked, and appears to have the watch from the first post on.

Oh, hold on a goddamn second. I opened Photoshop to adjust the contrast and brightness, but it's got an embedded color profile... I'll investigate some more. It's embedded with SyncMaster.

EDIT: Alright, everything worked flawlessly. It appears that is not a ladder, after all, but some kind of tiled window.

EDIT EDIT: A few tricks I picked up in Art class.

"Greenscaling" a picture; Turning up the saturation and changing the color to green.

I also tried sharpening the watch, but I still can't get a clear enough image of the numbers themselves, so I'll have to wager a guess that it reads 2:35, if I'm to assume that Logan isn't wearing it wrong.

Triple Post FTW.

The EXIF file couldn't be opened, but again there's a single keyword. "Photo Booth."

Other information:

Item Name:
JFIF_APP14 Photoshop 3.0
JFIF_APP2 ICC Profile(offset:97 size:7075bytes)
JFIF_APP1 Exif

ADOBERESOURCE:
IPTC-NAA 32Byte

IPTC:
Character-Code Definition 1B2547
Record Version 0002
Keyword Photo Booth

Error: Couldn't open EXIF file...


So, someone ran the original version through Photoshop 3.0 before posting the altered version onto JAFOOL. I'm thinking that Logan used Photoshop to make the image a JPEG, that way we could get access to the Key-Word "Photo Booth" using EXIFReader. By the way, I have Photoshop 7.0

Looks like a pair of very long legs wearing suit pants on the left side.

Holy shit, that pic is psychotic. What's with the knockknock-tm in the properties???

To Dav: if you get a f-ing knock knock on your door, I would NOT open the damn door! Or ask who's there! Do you have a garage with a ladder outside? Good Lord that pic is creepy as hell to me. Maybe I should have some more coffee.

Heh, don't worry there are no garages around where I am. Though I'm curious as to the intent of this blog post.

Again, I reassert the idea that it is not a ladder, but a window. Like this:

JESUS CHRIST WARN BEFORE A PIC LIKE THAT NEXT TIME OMFG.

D: D: D:

Anyway, I'm almost positive it's a ladder. You can see the outline of an actual window around it.

1. Laughter
2. Knock knock

I am sure as hell not being the one to ask "Who's there?"

It's a windowsill. If you look just above Logan's left arm [stage right], you'll see that the "ladder" shape abruptly ends before it reaches his skin. It's a window.

I think it ends because there's an actual window surrounding where the ladder is leaning on.

I'd swear that's the neck of a guitar propped upright. The shiny horizontal bits are just the frets reflecting the light.

That would mean the ladder is outside.

Humor, please. I've turned up the brightness and the contrast. It looks like a glass-tiled window. I've even outlined the spaces where light would be coming through, the window sill, and the outermost edges of the window. Most of the window's image is cut off by the windowsill itself. It makes sense given the angle.

Well, I did. I would seriously be amazed if this was what we'd been looking for.

Noo way. If you take perspective into account, that'd be a HUGE guitar, and even if not, the proportions are super wrong.
