It looks like we could be back soon. Jadusable has favorited a new video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7DkkF5rv-yk
"Chapter 2 preview" is about the only info I gleaned from that.

Also of note: http://www.youshouldnthavedonethat.net/ has been updated with new music. On the front page, "probably not," from the 5th paragraph has been crossed out. Checking the source code of several of the pages (meta name) gives you:

Chapters = http://
The Truth = WHAT
FAQ = IS
Donate = Not so fast
ARG Timeline = .com

The domain name whatisben.com has just recently been registered, as well, though I'm not sure if this is what we're looking for.

Looks like we're live again.

A bunch of new stuff was posted on the wiki, including something about passworded files?

[kolixela]

another section of the game has concluded. still missing the password for the login page to youshouldnthavedonethat.net

still have had no luck getting a decryption on the following cipher

EBOAKBBYCKWWXQGMEQNOK,RKZVOKCIVOWYJJMBKA (taken from file 59, the password protected download of mhftt.txt)

looks like the players have missed some recurring connection.

If ANYONE here has any luck making sense of that cipher please post. It'd be nice to see something come of it.

the lens of truth, truth, 423, HUBRIS, Matt HUBRIS are all possible keywords for anything cipher related based on the youtube videos.


ALSO anyone able to pull something out of the audio on this youtube vid? game apparantly said there's something missing

(sounds.wmv)


My own notes on the Sounds vid.

2:18


odd sound

2:57

another odd sound?
Maybe someone saying help?

3:50

another sound, seems added, maybe some light musical instrument?
goes till about 4:01

4:52/4:53

Sounds like a keypress then another odd sound.

[Secret_Tunnel]

Yeah, we really need to crack the cipher.

EBOAKBBYCKWWXQGMEQNOK,RKZVOKCIVOWYJJMBKA

Also, mhftt could be MattHubris423. My personal theory is that "They took my eyes" means we need to remove the letter I from something and use that.

I don't know why people assumed 'MHFTT' to be Matt Hubris 423.

Makes more sense for it to be 'Matt Hubris Found The Truth.'

But yes, the cipher needs to be cracked.
Somewhere within the files Ryukaki had sent via Mediafire, there's a key.

Hello, everyone. I'm a noob around here. Just finished my first participation in an ARG with Tempus Umbra. Fun times.
Anyway, I saw this topic and had to check it out since I'm a big Zelda fan. (I actually just played through the game again a couple months ago.)
I followed the links and read the whole of the story for what was apparently the first part of the game (where it ends with the creation of the Matt file on the game.) Then the timeline, which ends with the announcement of the indefinite suspension of the game.
Is it ongoing again, or have I missed the boat completely here? I only ask because I notice the last post here is from a couple weeks ago, while the timeline stops on September 20th.

[BearerOfBadNews]

yeah, you missed the boat

[Cobalt Monkey]

Darn. It was just getting really interesting too.

Thanks for telling me. Great name, btw.

Re: yeah, you missed the boat

[Cobalt Monkey]

Wait, so it is still on?

The one that told me it was done was a Guest account...
BEN, is that you?

[Illy]

From what I understand, it's not on RIGHT NOW, but it should be starting up again around the holiday season.
