I read earlier posts talking about the time between the bytes being loaded. Strangely enough I'm clocking them at precisely 3 AND 6 second intervals (stop watch with a "lap", more specificly the iPhone stop watch). Here is the sequence I got:
663663636636636636
It looks like the 6-6-3 repeating, but randomly(?) breaking this repetition.
Here's a longer one:
636636366366366366366366366366
Can anyone confirm this? I'd like to make sure it isn't my computer doing this.

I also have a suggestion for the forum. Add your current byte count to the end of your posting? If you think it's dumb, I don't mind...

48407 or 134640

Welcome to uF Very Happy

I don't have a stopwatch or anything, but mine's looking a bit more erratic that the usual 5 second interval too.

Also, I think it'd be good to post our count too. Not much else to do Laughing
48503

Yes but the point is that "Stop posting publicly" hugely and directly implies there's a post somewhere that we're missing.

And that's why I continue to search.


Well, yeah, you got a point there.

Why do I feel like this campaign's going to make the Cloverfield post count look trivial? Razz

Source Code

Some interesting things I found in the source code.

img src="img/error.jpg" alt="Remote Access Not Supported With This Device"></div>
</div>

"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"

function thisMovie(movieName)
{
if (navigator.appName.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1)
{
return window[movieName];
}
else
{
return document[movieName];
}
}

function addLoadEvent(func)
{
var oldonload = window.onload;
if (typeof window.onload != 'function')
{

Yes; but there were multiple websites for Cloverfield and we had new content found or a secret uncovered all of the time. This is only 2 out of who knows how much sites. 1-18-08.com wasn't even a part of the ARG really; the only thing that sort of added to the ARG experience was the Teddy Hanson missing poster

Photo of kid

Remember that screen of the boy in the trailer...
Somehow I think that is one of the teenagers that was filming the incident.. if they are filming it in the first place.

It'd be pretty sweet if it was all in Super 8 effects AND related to cloverfield.

I've been going at that AF File Library for a huge chunk of the day, trying to see if there's a web site we missed. Imagine my surprise when a combination of "Sector CL56" turned up a train locomotive... a*TOY* train locomotive... lol.

Oh well... the hunt continues.

This may be true. However, this...

yeah it basically prints out a few lines:

Stop posting publicly. I can answer your questions.

Thanks Yiddleja...I finally got it to print..

what does it mean though...do you suppose there is some site where someone is posting info publicly about the Area 51 thingy and someone else is telling them to stop? If so...should we be looking for a website?


That's pretty much what I think. I have been trying different things with some of the code but so far nothing. All dead-ends. May have found the Official Facebook page though...

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Super-8/119732268054336

Not sure if this is legit or not but if it is it brings up Kosmopol's point of the "leaked" teaser being on purpose as they have it there as well.


... makes me feel we're missing something.

Awesome captures guys!

The only obvious difference I see is the missing ladder/cab thing on the back.

Not sure if this should be read as anything more than a nod ... or a more direct link?

Should I go make a mashed potato mountain now?


If anything, a nod.

Come now, the aliens in Close Encounters were "let's take your children on a field trip" nice, not "let's bust out of a shipping container screaming" mean.
Good point, Nighthawk - that rage-filled roar we're hearing at the end reminds me of "Mr. Grumpy-Pants" a lot more than any "Phone...home..." warble, that's for sure... Wink

Hey Automaton, chill out on the condescending attitude. you arent the God of Unfiction. I know it can be annoying when there are multiple and repeating posts but some people are new to this and dont exactly know how this all works. The only time i see you post is to denegrade someone or tell someone off about their posts. If you arent contributing something positive toward the forum , dont post at all. Or, as mama used to say, if you dont have something nice to say, then dont say anything at all. Not trying to start a fight here, we just dont need the negative attitude here. Thank you


hah, I never meant to sound condescending in my posts! If I did so, sorry? Razz
I don't see how I could've been interpreted as that though (I was replying to his queries after all)... I mean, I'm reminding people to check back as a general rule for those who don't know how this all works. That usually saves the most time.

I've been lurking Unfiction for years, I don't post much, but from all the time I've been here that's the best advice I can give anyone. Not here to ruffle feathers though bro.


Ok , no prolem. apologies accepted. U just kinda came off that way. Some people dont understand how this works right off the bat. If you didnt mean to come off that way then its cool, it just seemed kinda condescending. I apologize in return if that wasnt your intent. We just need to all play along nicely and ive seen little things blow up into large counterproductive arguments here before and was trying to head it off at the pass, so to speak.

If were gonna make mashed potato mountains im in lol
