Got a friend who's good with steganography stuff. He had a look at the image and said that there's possibly the word "GODODO" hidden but it may be just a coincidence. I'm trying to get more info from him about how/where he found that.

"Go dodo", though? There's a dodo in Alice in Wonderland...


EDIT :: OK, he thinks it's a coincidence, so I guess we shouldn't waste too much time looking into it. As you were!


Been reading back through Alice's posts on her blog today. I noticed more Silent Hill connections - she says she's adopted. Alessa (in her "Cheryl" form) is adopted in the first Silent Hill game after the protagonist Harry finds her abandoned as a baby by the side of the road. Alice also says that she's bullied at school. In the first Silent Hill game, we discovered that Alessa was also bullied by her classmates who called her a "witch".
Of course, Alice says that her adopted father left after she was adopted, which is different to the Silent Hill story where Cheryl/Alessa was raised by Harry alone after his wife died. The movie is different - both her parents are alive and are still a couple.

In Silent Hill the game, Cheryl was born thanks to a ritual involving the god Samael as part of Silent Hill's strange religious cult - the young Alessa was deliberately burned horrifically in a house fire. She was supposed to be reborn as the reincarnation of Samael, but something went wrong and instead she split into two halves - the burned Alessa, lying unconscious in a hospital bed, trapped in a world of her own nightmares, and Cheryl, abandoned as a baby on the side of the road. They each have two halves of Samael's soul. The cult want to reunite Cheryl and Alessa so that the god Samael can finally be properly reborn.


Anyway, I'm not sure if any of this is actually relevant (especially as the references at the moment seem to be referring to Silent Hill Homecoming as opposed to the original game) but I thought I'd put it out there, just in case this does turn out to be related to Silent Hill in some way.

Perhaps it is an ARG for the next movie?

Based on this information. I've been lurking on this one as it is interesting, but was browsing IMDB and found that.

Could be. That would be interesting. There's also a new game in the series being worked on at the moment.

Well, there are still elements of Alice coming in to play here too. It's sounding good, all the similarities Alice has to the girl in Silent Hill, that added to the fact in the new Alice movie, didn't Alice's father die when she was relatively young? It could be tying them together.

Oh wow, derp.
For the paragraph he tells us the time in, you notice how we got the time from the last word in the paragraphs? Yeah well, notice how the last word in the second to last paragraph is late?
Derp. PM.

I've set up a forum for this ARG. It's because I'm having a difficult time keeping track of all the different ideas on all the different sites. so having a place where it can all be in separate threads by topic will be immensely helpful. I have class right now so I won't be able to do much more than creat the first Welcome thread but I'd really like to see if we can create a central place for tthis ARG discussion. Please join if you think it's a good idea. even if no one joins I'll keep my thoughts organized here.

Also Alison, I think you may be on to something there.

I appologise for the double post I'm double posting because this is a big one and You will all see it like a new contribution which is what it is.

I was talking about the time puzzle with someone and they asked if I'd looked up lucky numbers in Sikhism. No, I hadn't. Turns out they have an unusual one. It's 13.

so if the numbers revealed by these words are 910113 then we have an extra number right? No we don't. Remember that ṣafira is arabic meaning to be empty. The numeral 0 is pronounced "sifir" in Arabic. ṣafira means nothing/to be empty. This word has no number to contribute. I means nothing, it's 'empty'.

So now we are left with 91113 which translates to the time 9:11:13

BAM

Actually, the cards decode to "pocket vatch".

But since v and w are right next to eachother, it might just be a mistake on the rabbit's part.
