I've been reading things on /x/ before I could even find out what this is about.

There are apparently 12-13 confirmed runes, and a few other unofficial ones. The goal is to lucid dream together with the people who share your symbol. And one symbol is for the control group.

/x/, being /x/, points towards theories of aliens, demonic pacts, and mind control. One of the most interesting threads is a tripfag behaving like he's from the institute, talking about how "their kind" will lead you through the dream and show you what you need to understand. Knowledge that will help you in the coming events.

Maybe my mind is overreacting, but with all that's going on with Assasin's Creed, this reminds me a lot of all the new questions from Brotherhood:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The "ones who came before", more perfect beings with a sixth sense, knowledge, which they tried to keep for themselves, us humans being their slaves. Of course, rebellion, things backfired, cross-breeding happened, and now they're gone, except for traces and data.


Might be what "their kind" refers to. Of course, not a lot of 4chan's sources are to be trusted much, but if it is then I can surely be the one to keep up with the site for the game.

...If I get into it. I always seem to loose interest in these. Or get busy.

leelzebub, mine was listed 13. And sadly, nothing last night, not even the whisper of a dream.

Smile No worries, CarnageBlack, there's now extended info regarding The Experiment on the KISS website including this:

If you wake up and did not have a lucid dream, you may still have time to repeat the instructions and try again.

True. They did make reference to two days where it's stronger or something like that. Then again, it's been a while since I've done it.

This looks very interesting. I think I'll be following this one.

[Meta] This looks very similar to a few very good ARGs PMed by someone going by the name of XIII over the past couple of years. He liked to include ties to old German/Nazi organizations, as well as Japanese/Asian influence[/Meta]

As of 11AM (possibly earlier, but that's when I checked the site), the intro image to http://kiss-international.org/ has changed.

Is someone on /x/ trolling the ARG, or is KISS an /x/ prank? Is this really an ARG at all? Confused Mad

didn't notice the music cause i'm typically in areas where i can't play any...

I sent a tweet to Kaiser Institute's twitter mentioning this. After further reflection, I would be surprised to find out that "Hannah" isn't a hack. Creating a twitter account and a slick website (as it was before), along with the pdfs would be a huge waste of time for something that isn't actually an ARG.

Well, not sure whether it was the right thing to do or not, but I have enough things disturbing my sleep as it is at the moment...so I made this up and sent it in. Will see what they say...

It's been a long time since I've had any control over my dreams, but I had a go. I did NOT feel well rested waking up. I remembered waking up with the alarm, looking at the symbol for only a minute or two before I must have fallen asleep again. I think in my dream I got up out of bed to go to the bathroom, and caught a look at myself in the mirror on the way by, and stopped. I felt surprise that I was dressed. I looked a bit closer, and my clothes were not my own; they were filthy, ripped, practically falling off. I looked like hell; I think I had a tooth missing too. And I looked a lot older. But that was it, I think I just went back to bed, rags and all.

Not that helpful, I bet. Let me know when/if I should try this again. But I really need some sleep tonight...

I was thinking of doing the same, just haven't had the time lately. It's finals week in university! Yaaay.... Bang Head

Site has not yet been changed. Sad I was enthusiastic about this, too...
