did anyone see...?

Hi - haven't played ARGs in a long time Smile This one looks awesome, so here I come...

Did anyone see the newest posting on the blog? I looked through this thread and didn't see this posted?

SINce u all like riddels
First there were three,
Then there were four,
Now there are two,
Soon, there will be one

And then, there will thirteen

PERFECTION

Perfe are in red
ction are in blue... This was posted on the 19th I believe... and the title of the blog has changed.

HORRIBLE TENTACLED THINGS
IH AVE HER I HAVEH ER IHA VEHER

I also dont know if it matters, but if you look at the gmail account, you've got several labels that dont come with gmail AFAIK

Personal
Travel
Receipts
Work

If you look under settings, Personal and Travel (PT) are "show" and Receipts and Work are hidden. (RW)

The list is

Personal (show)
Receipts (hide)
Travel (show)
Work (hide)

And I'm not sure if this'll break the wall but in gmail it lets you see whos logging in from what IP address... That might be OOG stuff and I dont want to get into that if thats not the intent of the puppet master.

Also with his name being DM_17JN10 , is it possible that the "17JN10" is a date - June 17th 2010? Is there something big happening on that date? Maybe thats when the 6.7MM people will die or something?

Also, if you look at the settings of the gmail account, it also links to a Yahoo account, same name, same login. 1 unread email - not sure how relevent that unread email is... take it for what its worth. Smile

welcome aboard TremereBear,

you are indeed the first person to post on the new blog post. i don't think it was there yesterday but it seems to fit in with our assumption that MMMF has snatched LL.

searched the gmail area and couldn't find any useful info other than the blog - altho as i don't have gmail myself i didn't realise the labels you listed aren't standard. not sure if it is going to be relevant, worth keeping an eye on tho.

i thought of a date as well, but haven't seen anything significant IRL that is set to happen on 17/6/10. maybe an in game date to watch out for, as you say. btw i think the figure is 6.7 billion people to die - i.e. the whole world's population.

will have a think about the new puzzle now and post later with any ideas,

mycroft

hey, still kinda getting up to speed here, just thought it was a lil weird, he listed a birthdate on his yahoo. i wasn't sure if it comes standard that way or won't create the account with out it or whatever but does the 31st of December 1969 mean anything to you guys? Ha or does it just mean we could be looking for a guy in his 40's?
About as much as i could turn up was that it's at the centre of a computer malfunction thingy that makes some computers set the clocks back to that day due to overflow of numbers in seconds since the last Epoch (Unix?) i don't really get it but there's some mention of it being kinda like the Y2k thing back in 2000. Although, this overflow isn't really meant to happen till 2038.. i mean sure, it could cause some computers to spaz out a little i suppose, but 6.5 billion deaths?

Thinking about the whole 17jn10 thing, it does appear that the A-OKs are having a CD release party on June 17th.

Twitter update -

"One"

Thats all it says...

EDIT -

Quote:
OCIAL MEDIUMS

so the new blog page gives us this title and then FBWMT

we already know that the F = facebook (link is working)
presumably the other letters also suggest a page or site for us to find, all connected to a social medium type site

B = blogger/blogspot/bebo?
W = wiki..?
M = myspace?
T = twitter?


Did anyone notice that the colors of the letters correspond to their respective sites? IE - the T is the same color as that thats used for Twitter. The B is the same color as the orange around the B for blogspot. But I dont know what colors the W and M are for.. M certainly isn't Myspace which is a dark blue similar to Facebook. And the F is now a link so the color doesn't work anymore.

BTW, realize that when you are logged into the gmail/blogger account that it has web history enabled. This means among other things that it keeps a history of all the searches done while logged in. From the looks of it, somebody has been looking for some rather adult material Wink I'd suggest logging out as soon as you are done using the account.

Someone needs to link up everything we've found, because I sure as hell am confused.

I tried both wordpress and mylife. Wordpress def is the right color for the W but it doesn't host blogs on its own. So I dunno. Mylife doesn't really give you any kind of information without having to pay.

I've been lurking for a while... but I noticed no one posted this yet. The Tumblr was updated.

The blogspot has a new post as well, and appears to be open to view without logging in.

RADIO links to the tumblr account, TELEVISION to the youtube for MMMF and BOOK isn't linked to anything.

On Twitter, TremereBear asked, "What kind of dreams do you have when you sleep Diam?" to which Diam replied, "1. a singular yellow canary, suffocating in a cage. what could this mean?" I think he's talking about the canaries that coal miners would take into the mines with them to test for carbon monoxide leaks. A "canary in a coal mine" is someone or something that is an early warning for something terrible about to happen. Maybe that means Diam was sent ahead of someone/something else as a warning?

Sorry for double posting, but there's a new video up on manyform's Youtube now. I extracted the audio and have been playing around with it in audacity but the only thing I can make out is "all of the little itty bitty". Hope someone else has better luck with it...

ETA: The most prominent numbers are 8483868... a telephone number maybe? Denver's area code is 303... I'm committed but I'm not really "making phone calls" committed yet so I'll let someone else try it. :]

ETA2: I think it's definitely a phone number. I just noticed the caption of the video on youtube is "YOUR CALL."
