Thanks for the warning Cortez - I'd have been ticked off if I had read through all 65 pages for nothing. So - the original never went anywhere? Pretty creepy, though. Stuff like this makes you wonder about keeping the curtain drawn so firmly in the spirit of "this is not a game" - I think I'd like a little reassurance that it is a game in this case! I know he says it is, or does he just mean that murder is a game for him?
Ugh!


That's pretty much what the whole previous 65 pages is about. People arguing about whether it's real and wanting to go to the authorities. Rolling Eyes It was tedious the last time around.

 		Lol...I remember playing The Human Pet (my first ever ARG) a couple of years ago and feeling exactly the same. This definitely looks like an ARG, so no worries (although hey, you never know, right? Laughing )

I'm going to feed the sound from the vid into Cubase tonight (if I get time - 2 little kids) to see if I can add to any of the finds from the original thread.

The original thread started with a hex-code found on the YT profile page:

Quote:
49 54 20 49 53 20 41 4c 4c 20 41 20 47 41 4d 45 2e 20 4c 4f 4f 4b 20 48 41 52 44 2c 20 4c 4f 4f 4b 20 43 4c 4f 53 45 2e 20 59 4f 55 20 57 49 4c 4c 20 4e 45 56 45 52 20 46 49 4e 44 20 4d 45 2e


Which translated as:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
IT IS ALL A GAME. LOOK HARD, LOOK CLOSE. YOU WILL NEVER FIND ME.


And

Quote:
SSBCVVJJRUQgVEhFTSBDTE9TRSBUTyBIT01F


Which was base64:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I BURIED THEM CLOSE TO HOME


And...

Quote:
73 32 67 76 69 65 78 69 68 32 85 80 32 65 76 76 32 79 70 32 84 72 69 32 66 76 79 79 68


Ascii code:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I CLEANED UP ALL OF THE BLOOD


And...

Quote:
52 54 32 52 57 32 52 101 32 52 52 32 50 48 32 52 100 32 52 53 32 50 101 32 50 48 32 53 57 32 52 102 32 53 53 32 50 48 32 53 55 32 52 57 32 52 99 32 52 99 32 50 48 32 53 51 32 52 53 32 52 53 32 50 48 32 53 52 32 53 50 32 53 53 32 53 52 32 52 56 32 50 101


Decoded to:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
FIND ME. YOU WILL SEE TRUTH.


These codes were on the YT profile page originally, but are no longer there.

The original thread lost its way after that. Looks like we're starting from scratch (assuming the ARG has come back to life).

 		Yea it was pretty chaotic to say the least. We responded back and forth with him on the youtube page. He left a drop package with some locks of human hair and a code nobody was able to crack. If I get time i'll try to find the pictures in the old thread of the code that was left with the hair.


Never mind, all of the links to the package aren't working anymore.
Start from scratch it is.

 		There's a french forum for this ARG that says stuff did indeed happen in October 09. They seem to have a lot more info. Most of it didn't mean much to me though, since I still haven't read through our thread...it does look like there is too much info from last time for me though, I hate playing catch up.

 		These could be the images of the box and its contents. Also, I've Gimped the hieroglyphs and attached...these were never solved.

Please note: the, ahem, 'annotations' on the note are not mine. Laughing

 		Yep those are the pics. But there were some more with a math code that was never solved as well. Good find on the French site. But I think the I'm Being Followed was a different ARG. I know there was thread here last year. I don't think they're connected.
http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=28557

Good find but I think 2 similar ARG's got combined. It's just odd that he didn't check that Youtube account in October of 2009, but October of 2010 he did.

I was hoping you'd see this Caff!. The only reason I even brought this back up is because He signed into his youtube account after over a year of inactivity. He said he'd see us in October. It's October and he signed in. and changed his About me on Youtube to "2010" so something has to be up.

 		Oh damn, didn't know a new thread was created. I really hope the PM actually started something up again. This was one of the coolest games I had participated in.

Sorry for the double post, but this reminds me. I sent the PM a message on via youtube right as the game came to it's halt.

Quote:
We had some great fun trying to find you. But, over the course of the game, you made it rather impossible to actually solve anything, making it no longer fun. We no longer have any drive to move towards finishing this.

Your video truly lives up to it's name. Congratulations, you have won. We will never find you.


I never got a response. I kind of wish I did, to reassure me it was over or to confirm he was still out there.

In fairness, it was a bit of a mindf*** - the guy was so meticulous that he was walking the fine line between reality and fiction in ways I've never known before. Beautiful work, and if it's back, I may have to end my ARG exile to get back into it.

i remember actually bothering to get through a somewhat long-running arg for once, and it turns out that it had been dead for like a month after a few hours straight reading of the thread Rolling Eyes

so yea, if it is starting up again, i'm in
