It is actually! lol

And yes, after the ARG definition is every ARG project an ARG, whether related to another project or not.

I'll keep an eye on your blog btw. We need every hint we get.


Why are there so many @#$! monsters on this @#$! train?!?

 		If I recall, there was an official gamejack thread for Cloverfield. Perhaps this thread can serve that purpose?

 		Oh man, Bold Futura, and the other Tagruato affiliates (paraFUN, Yoshida Medical) that brings back some fun memories and wishes at the time at when those sites would go live, as slusho.jp did.

Actually, on speculation was still going on whether this was or not a Cloverfield sequel, I went immediatly to Slusho.jp and Tagruato see if there were changes or those other sites were working. No dice Sad


EDIT: plus, there was that environmentalist group site that I believe most people were thinking was a gamejack and then it turned out at the Tagruato page proving to be IG!

 		Yeah, TIDOwave was ingame, it was cool to see the confirmation in those international faked news, which were one of the coolest part of Cloverfield ARG/ARE.

You're welcome Smile
My spoken English is not really good, so I spoke in German. I'll try to cover the whole story in this podcast.

 		Well, I cannot listen to sound here, just video/graphics so I had no clue you were speaking German. Thanks for posting that, it was great reliving old Cloverfield memories, haha.

I'm all excited for the timer to count down now.

 		Nubi....
OK guys ..I need some help here... I assume a "gamejack" is somebody trying to hijack the game for what ever reason ...

If I'm following this properly people are saying the "500" thing is fake, but I've come across something interesting. Follow with me:

http://500rads.blogspot.com/

Click on "view profile" (right side of screen)

Takes you to

http://www.blogger.com/profile/14047445230686681131

Click on "Audio Clip" takes you to

http://sciencetracker.net/out/from/am/per/sand.mp3

and plays about 5 seconds of white noise...

Tracking the URL directory back ... you find:

http://sciencetracker.net/out/from/

Which has the following "extensions"

Parent Directory -
19/ 01-Apr-2010 21:10 -
am/ 21-Mar-2010 13:44 -
inside.htm 01-Apr-2010 21:08 1.0K
inside_out.htm 01-Apr-2010 21:09 2.3K
last_blast.mp3 19-Apr-2010 11:01 99K
the_thread.png 01-Apr-2010 19:45 2.2K
the_thread_hides.png 10-Apr-2010 01:43 6.1K
the_thread_shows.png 01-Apr-2010 20:18 3.2K

Following the various directories...

Try these directories:

http://sciencetracker.net/out/from/19/nineteen/xix.htm (didnt somebody find something with roman numerals in it?)

http://sciencetracker.net/out/from/inside.htm ---> this jumps you to a few different websites eventually ending on http://churchoffundamentalabsence.org/lite_ampersand_dark.htm (the image reads "life is meaningless")

the right side of the graphic seems to react to your mouse but not do anything else... about halfway down the screen there is a rollover that says "you've gone to far" clicking on it flips through another series of pages ....

Some of the pages you jump to are:

"I am dr"
"I am"
"...an accident"
and
http://4-27-2010.com/news.html

The "church" site that you are brought to at one point accepts "donations" but not cash... they will sell you a "coffee mug" for 13.00 with the 4-27 date on it...

I dont know if any of this means ANYTHING or if this is all somebody's joke or just internet nothingness... but I thought I would share it ...

 		First off, you made a huge jump from 500rads simply linking to an audio file on another site. There's nothing linking the two sites. Second, and this is pretty dang hilarious considering the current date, if you view the source of sciencetracker.net you find this snippet (fixed):

Quote:
"name="description" content="The world is going to end on April 27th, 2010 and most people don't even know this is about to happen! Science has the answers and I follow the science, visit me here to see what is happening right now!"


If you hadn't noticed, it's past 4/27/2010 and we're still here. Draw your own conclusions.


----

My personal take on 500rads, well it was mentioned by someone else, is they scour the net for random pics/audio clips and repost them on their site. Why the heck do they have a pic of a Mantis fly?? It's completely irrelevant to everything, as is most of their site. Frankly I think the owner's are just going for max hits and we're helping them.

 		I don't want to be an accusatory asshole, but has anyone else noticed Rasgold is one of the few adamant supporters of the 500rads/Cloverfield/(now)Super 8 connections? And does anyone remember when he used to post cryptic information and links on the imdb pages for cloverfield that always ended up having nothing to do with anything?

Someone tell me I'm not the only person who at least sees something weird here.
