Re: [META] Maybe having to choose sides in this game
compare to Dark Knight

Yaha. Am certain that no one would enjoy experiencing Dee, like Jimenez, "bound to his (her) dining table" while Infinity has a kill feast-meal filled with irony. Having seen and read some of Dexter, thankfully believe this isn't about anything so simplistic as "choosing sides" and is about our ability to perceive dark motives and (possibly) to keep secrets.
Coffee DITTO on crossing fingers we'll be moved to Chaotic Fiction to have even more fun figuring out both Dee and Infinity.

A little OOG, but I wonder if the writers behind Dexter met together to develop this as a hobby. If they did, we'll definitely be in for a few top-of-the-line twists. So far, the detail put into the game is great, but hopefully it picks up like a Dexter season into an incredible finale. I wonder who, how, and when this was put together. I'm hoping for a behind-the-scenes interview when this wraps up.

I was browsing the fotolog site (shown in one of the graffiti pictures from REgis' travels) to figure out what that website address led to.

I believe the cutoff portion is /jamese.....

Searching fotolog members for that gives http://geo.fotolog.com/search_users?expr=jamese

Nothing really stood out on that list to me, except one member listing their location as West Palm Beach Florida (i know not Miami, but at least in the right state).

His fotolog only has a single photo on it, of a brown haired guy in his late 20s-early 30s, and the photo is titled "toanotherreality"

All in all, its probably nothing, but it did seem suspicious to include a picture with a mostly legible and easily searchable web address in it.

[SPEC] what do we know about Santos' death

That idea is interesting and I give you great credit for tracking that down. I have no where to go with it though...

Maybe all we were to get out of Regis is that the F8 knocked him out and got his shirt so he could gain entry to the house. So F8 may have known that the security system was out, either through hearing it on the tapes or disabling it himself, and waited for Regis to appear so he could knock him out and get his shirt and then get entrance to the house. Alternatively, the guy under arrest because of the brick under the seat could have given the information away, but did he know the system was down?

I guess we also learned that F8 only kills the victims he has targeted.

Clearly F8 has good sources of information and is a patient man.

Maybe that is all there is to this part of the story, seems like there should be more for all the work we had tracking down Regis ( though I like his blog) I did wonder why Regis was going to South Africa and then changed his mind to Australia. Guess it is easier to get to from Hong Kong.

What we know: dirty cops are involved and knew about the security system being out. There was a delivery between 11 and midnight on the docks. We know Santos was a high level drug dealer. We have the audio of F8's gloating over how hard it was to get to Santos, so we know that F8 was the person who attacked Regis. Although we only have Regis' word for this, so who knows if any of it is true. Smile

What we don't know: why F8 is choosing these victims and how he finds out about them.

Quote:
@rose, The reason I was trying so hard to figure out the company name is because it was that security company's technician who received the error screen capture. Find the company, find the technician, find the message. But I guess that didn't pan out. I left the little bit of information we got from Bisinha on Dee's tip-line, so maybe that might move things forward. Otherwise, I don't know where to go from here. Unless we've gone as far as we're supposed to for now and Dee'll release more info next week? I wonder what that means we'll be getting tomorrow from F8 though.


Ah degravedi- I assumed that because Regis was the tech coming to repair the system he would have the screen shot! We were aiming at the same thing!

[Question] About Vince Masuka on Facebook

Does anyone want to contact Masuka on Facebook and mention anything about the Dexter game to him - I mean the facts we've found out and about a murder in Miami? Not that this is a game Wink

I have a strong aversion to facebook and hate to have to use this to communicate. I have a facebook page and all the settings are so private it is practically.

I wonder if I should create a page as unfiction rose to just use for ARGs and ARGfest...etc.

"toanotherreality" Hmm, might be a clue Wink. Actually, after seeing the picture, it seems like a cheap Photoshop, so I have my doubts that that specific picture is related to this.

My favorite thing about that spoiler cut is that my browser displays the link as a different color, overriding the spoiler highlighting. Curious.

But anyway, what are you thinking the letters are for?

His first tweet are different companies in the Armed Forces. I responded with BravoAlphaCharlie which is another 3 companies.

He is the key, but to what?

F8's first tweet's caps (krkhojkmknip) are a letter substitution for ONLY "onomatopoeic". That means sounds imitating words (http://www.answers.com/topic/onomatopoeia).

Am thinking it refers to his twitter avatar JPEG name: Cha_A-Kha_Tsah-As-Zih_Wol-La-Chee_Gah_Be_Dibe-Yazzi

That said, it's still gibberish to me...hehe

EDIT: Degravedi recognized my same post on the IG forum as not-gibberish. She's translating now from the Navajo Code Talkers' Dictionary as I'm still TGIFing with girlfriends.

EDIT again: I got lucky and found it leads to the next website: http://www.hoyardley.com/#fbid=rn3b4icUOM_

Okay, so I'm totally baffled as to how you got the letter substitution thing. I guess I don't need to know, but I want to! What did you use as the substitute?

Sorry A, just got home. At Decrypto you'll see it's the only valid letter substitution and that lead me to SemperF8's odd avatar JPEG name (Navaho being a form of onomatapia) etc. Maybe "dynamite" just leads to the "iamdynamite"twitter accn't? Dunno

It's being worked on on the SH forums. The first part decodes in binary, but the rest seems corrupt? (And it's not just my transcribing skills, everyone gets the same thing)
