There's another Findings post including a message from someone calling themselves "1221" and talking about how Worldview is somehow altering our (their) past. Something about... Atlantis?

If you translate the symbols--and fancy letter Z--scattered through the message, you get:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ALVAREZ SAYS HI


Thoughts?

yeah i've been trying to wrap my head around this one. could it be written by Alvarez I guess? He doesn't even KNOW us in the current timeline buuuuut we know he's at least been in contact with malcolm. The post definitely is NOT good for Worldview, so maybe Malcolm is influencing Alvarez to write it?! but then why not just SIGN the damn document as Alvarez?! why the hidden message to say his name????

As to the CONTENT of the document. Cool! The Atlantis mention is confusing, but interesting. Makes me think he's talking about differences between their world and ours.

The first part of the first paragraph "The world is not as it was supposed to be. History has been changed. People have died who were supposed to have lived. People have lived who were supposed to have died. Wars have been started, and wars never existed" really makes me think. does the author think Worldview has changed their history??? "I have seen into the heart of worldview and know they are behind this" WTF??

I guess all we can do is wait for more posts. hopefully there will be more, as the blog post says there should be.

Kinda hard to speculate since our last email is a month before the supposed time date stamp on the message. My first two stabs on guesses would be Ace Geas or Malcolm.

It does mention the Guardians more as an entity so that might support Malcolm more than anything, though it makes you wonder why he's taking such a roundabout approach to it.

On the other hand it could be Alvarez because we don't know if it was him who inserted the letters. It could have been one of the brains (since they had been popping up in messages on the time hops) or Henry. It's hard to say in context who they are.


On the point of time manipulation I did throw a theory to Vidal at one point that said it wasn't too far fetched that you could build something off the base that Henry could connect to different time periods, it wouldn't be too hard as long as you understand the basics.

Bump for new findings post.

The encoded message is:

Quote:
THIS MAN IS REAL WORLDVIEW EMPLOYEE. TRUST NO ONE.


I didn't much coin in it, but I guess it could possibly be Jess Chard?

I only thought of it because the newest post said

Quote:
They took everything from me.

That would make me think it was Jess Chard since she lost her son.

trust noone... krycek maybe? first thing i thought when i read that was X-Files.

and he's definitely getting into differences between the timelines. very interesting read, gave me goosebumps.

Oh, and cherrytree. the latest news article says that both jess and kevin chard had gone missing, along with Ace and some others. i guess it was late 2029 article, but still. worth noting considering the blogger is mid-2028. the disappearing people could be the aftermath of whatever the hell happened with Malcolm in between. it looks like the people who are missing are the people he had brought to xalapa for his so-called lawsuit.

Not sure what to make of that one either.

I would assume it to mean as the posts get more noticed the Church and Worldview get more frantic thus it becomes more dangerous for the poster to stay in hiding as they strengthen their efforts to find them.


I still think Jess Chard is a good contender as "Melinda Bellhurst' is talked about convincing the post in this most recent one and I know her journal entries she talked to Melinda a lot. I would need to review them again though since it's been a long time.

i agree with cherrytree, that's definitely what it means. it seems the poster is already pretty paranoid and im going to bet that wont help much.

that's also a great point cherrytree! didn't even think of that connection. Jess's journals had her paling up with Melinda quite a bit. she didn't LIKE melinda, but they spent a bunch of time together.

one thing i dont like about the jess theory, though, is how these blogs or exnet posts or whatever are written. this person is clearly pretty unstable and really kind of showboating (almost like malcolm except this is definitely not him) I just looked over the jess chard journals for the first time in ages, and they are clear, concise and not even remotely the same kind of mood to them. if that makes any sense (: and this is early on still in the timeline, and not too far after the end of the journals. could she really have gone this crazy in such a short period of time?

also we have the coded message from one of the posts which said "this man is a real worldview employee" which makes me think the person leaving the hidden messages is not even the author of these posts. "this man" would logically be the person writing the blog posts, dont you think? especially considering he talks about himself in that post, says he was "one of them" and all of that stuff.

Kickstarter back in action!
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/idgi/consortium-0

If you're following the Corporate blog then you'll know that they've restarted the Kickstarter campaign for Consortium with more meat to the description and a lower goal (which they've already passed 10% of!).

Anyway, their new video has many instances of the star symbols—is that what we're calling them?—and I have the translations.

The first is a simple message that appears on a series of sheets of paper tacked in the background. They, together, read:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
THANK YOU TO THE PEOPLE OF UNFICTION YOUR TENACITY HAS MADE THIS POSSIBLE


In addition, a series of symbols flash rather quickly at the tail end of the video. Their message is... odd:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
TRUST IN THE SEEERS
This might mean "seekers" as there's no K in that alphabet, but the paper message added one, so I don't know.

It's really just promotional, but I still thought I'd point it out:
The new promotional image they just put out through Kickstarter points to a new website: http://whoistheseeker.com

The image links to the KS campaign and the symbols decode to
