Who's doing it, exactly?

Wow that got your attention!! I'm not in the habit of posting personal details on public forums. I refer you to my original statement, all the info is freely available out there. Or you can take the over-whelming evidence and ride with"gamejack" - It's so badly done it won't last too long, and honestly is a complete waste of time for the "kiddies" playing plus I assume it's their bed time soon-Just makes them look thoroughly incompetent and incredibly dim witted. Not desirable personality traits Laughing

I guess saying that you know the person will make the skeptics even more skeptical. I think that you just don't want to eat humble pie.

Lets check out the apartment complex that he has written on the box.

So, seems the profile is actually in game then, because with a phone book look up of the last name Minker in WV there's only 4 and none are names that have come up for us so far.

EDIT: Apparently Mount Morris, is actually in PA. Really close to WV though.


And how do you come to the IG conclusion?


Because if it he was a real person, the name and address would come up upon searching the name in the phone book...



I don't follow your logic, if it was a GJ then it wouldn't be a real person.

The facebook and meemi are coming far faster and simpler than the other clues we've had so far. They just feel completely different from the stuff we know is IG. We've gone from advanced tools PDP-11 simulator and the Braegen14 to really basic and unimaginative youtube and facebook profiles.

They just feel completely off to me.

Yet another point to GJ. We mention the photo being taken down and not long after it's back up. Just face it, it's someone who wants a game of their own so steals someone elses.

And for those who are saying we "don't want to eat crow" I have no problems admiting I'm wrong, when I'm wrong.

Edit due to stupid mobil browsing

@Dust King- Agreed.

It would be cool if the youtube and FB were totally IG. But those were found by a random search, unlike STIES, and HM. It's probably a random guy who's really into this, and trying to throw people off for his personal enjoyment. Until Josh links the youtube or FB on his blog, I'm not convinced.

BTW I'm not trying to be a Debby Downer xD

Debie Downer....

Alright... I have no problem being the "Debbie Downer" and tell you all this crap wreaks of a GJ. If you can prove to me FB is legit with undeniable proof then I will post a picture of me wearing a dress in the middle of Walmart. To be completely honest I'm still in doubt about HLM due to the sketchy link to SITES. Some GUEST finds a couple of CL items that vaguely resembles the hat off the pic on SITES and viola.... we take it hook, line and sinker (pun intended.)

I went through enough crap with the Cloverfield stuff to have to go through it again. Maybe something will come up and I will be completely wrong (and wearing a dress) but until then I'm not convinced, going all the way back to the Craig's list find. We all need to go back and figure out where this thing went south. Bang Head

Why I feel facebook is GJ

OK, I've weighed in on this before, trying to be subtle about what I thought was missing from (at least the pic I had seen earlier of) the Facebook page.

I said that based upon what we know of the hooklineandminker site's journal, whose photo should we expect to see, but don't? And I believe I said that if that photo now shows up, definitely GJ.

So, to spell it out to the one's supporting Facebook as being IG, who is the only person that we know (based upon the journal's on his site) that is conclusively a "friend" of Josh?

Now, again, if they've added "Barney's" favorite bud to the site after I posted my comment sometime back, it's GJ. (And for the supporters of the site, check out Josh's journal and see who I'm making reference to.)

It's GJ, and poorly done. If the PMs are behind that Facebook page they should be banished to the super star fringe island of the eight lost trekkies and buried in a field of clover!
