I don't see how to access the .php page you linked from the main STIES game page, so I doubt it's part of the game — rather just server-side mechanics, that's my guess.

Type in "site:http://www.scariestthingieversaw.com" (without the quotes) into Google Search. Then click "omitted results".

Looks like there have been two updates; one on June 27, and two on July 4.
One page wants to translate from Japanese!?
i.e. : www.scariestthingieversaw.com/?guid=ON

Not saying this is IG, just a curiosity as I've been playing ARGs since the early 70's and the time stamp being "visible" is odd.

 		I believe i know what the printout is.
The printout is until recently said that they had proof and that somebody should stop posting publicly because they have answers. Originally we were led to believe this someone who should stop posting publicly was us.....BUT IN FACT!!! It is a specific person! The printout is a conversation between two people. We are getting the end of a conversation and slowly getting more toward the beginning. Example…the first line with something being reactivated is the first person and they say to keep "it" hidden (my idea is the super8 footage) the second guy says he has "it" and doesnt know what the damn thing is. This is followed by the first guy again saying that he has the answers (what "it" is) and he will give him the answers so they need to stop posting publicly! Tell me what you think! I believe im really onto something! btw. i believe the picture is of him using the camera footage and proving he has "it" I know this because this is the format of a conversation on an old computer. DISCUSS!

Yours has also been discussed.
There's no need to use the 1 or the 2 at this point.

The files A5RSR1, CL03, DD09, and GMRF71 cannot be accessed. It is very likely that we do need to use 1, 2, or 0 and need to figure out how to input them.

Quickly becoming the king of the trout pond..

All this was found and discussed many times already as has every post you have made so far.. indicating that you are looking at these things as we all did 2 months ago for the first time now..... Please go back and start at the beginning and read all the threads since the trailer was released.. This will avoid any more trouts and also bring you up to speed so you wont have to go back over ground already covered.
Thanx..

I think you misunderstood me. I even stated in my own post that I was aware it had been previously discussed. I meant to say that I think we need to go back and find a way to input the 1's and 0's. And my first 3 posts were trouts.... not all of them.

I can input a zero if I use my keyboard's numeric keypad. 1 and 2 on the keypad still produce Y and N, however.

 		AfroPanda;

On the last link that was given supporting the fact that this has been posted before it states:
FITH CONTACT - some thing may have reactivated.
> FOURTH CONTACT - See I have the damn thing.
>> THIRD CONTACT - Stop posting publicly I have proof.
>>> SECOND CONTACT BLANK???
>>>> FIRST CONTACT BLANK???

Just to clarify so that I understand you, are you suggesting that the FIFTH (sic) CONTACT above, is actually the 1st as respects the postings; that somehow we're seeing the timeline in reverse?

Just want to make sure I'm following what you're theorizing.

Welcome!

LOL, AzureWolf ...

I was NOT referring to the countdowns of FILE LIST B4 (as in the two links you indicated with trout).

I am referring to the CURRENT countdown that is going on, and if you clicked on the link
[http://www.scariestthingieversaw.com/time.php?time]*
I provided, you would see that the exposure of this type of time code is not normally exposed.

*If you re-fresh the page, you will see what I mean about a "countdown."

Like I stated, I've been playing these types of games since the early 70s, and this is NOT normal for this type of game.
Tho, this ( Super 8 ) game has been far from normal since its inception.

 		Re: [TROUT] Re: TIME?

Actually Ras, you are talking about the filelist B4, the SWF references time.php to find out if the countdown is finalized which it was about 2 months ago, same time this was brought up before.

Cool

time.php simply gives you the server time, nothing special and is certainly not a countdown.

ETA: 2 more things:

1) http://www.scariestthingieversaw.com/time.php is the same as http://www.scariestthingieversaw.com/time.php?time and the scripting in the swf actually points to http://www.scariestthingieversaw.com/time.php?time=*your local time in seconds*

2) A nice quote, from one of the posts you trouted (Did I phrase that right??)
obwez wrote:
Technically speaking, your browser does in fact contact the server. It reaches the time.php endpoint which is used for time verification. This protects the SWF from the user manipulating his/her system clock to a date in the future - thus spoiling the surprise at the end of the countdown.

Not talking about the FILE LIST B4.

I use the "Site:http://www.ETC ..." Search offered by Google every day to check up on updates, and this wasn't there.
(It was back in May, when the B4 File activated the RSCOM8 printout, but was gone since then)

A NEW countdown has begun?

And, I still say it's not normal for the creators to leave this information to be found.
