i was just messin wit u lol (had to edit it cuz it messed up)

tell me the background music at the bonaro video didn't sound like transformers code/language!!! which Coincidence leads it to be out(was now its 6-29-2011) 7-1-2011 (i don't believe in coincidence =) ) and mission icefly site looks mechanical so new possibility Transformers 3 ARG o.o anyone agree?

but then again anything is possible

btw anyone decript the text at the bottom of missionicefly.com yet?


Working on it.

Assuming that it is monospaced and that the first letter of each line is intact we are looking at around 50-60 missing letters with 34 letters provided.

Making a program to work through a word list for potential matches. Not sure if I will finish it in time, but I figured it was a good way to pass the final 4 days.

PS. Need a wordlist.

IceFly Videos
I've run some tests...

I've Downloaded and ran both Mission Icefly videos through some filters, using After Effects. Tthey seem identical other than the obvious addition of the garbled bloke at the end. I then over layed the second video onto the first with a 'Difference filter'. Apart from the mission icefly url at the end being a frame or two out, again nothing unusual.

Just looking for anything hidden in the video. I'll keep trying with other filters. I'm half expecting the videos to be updated with a bit more to the end as time progresses.

 Event of Game

@ Fellhawke


Thanks for sharing the info. Cool

I just came off of a long and somewhat disappointing ARG. So I was wondering if I should hanker down and prepare for a game or will this be a event?

You can even PM me Event or Game If you are cognizant of this information.

Thank you for your time

Note that "Reboot" is in there.

Fellhawke!

Did they tell you to come to this forum and tell us about your blue package, phone calls and emails or did you decide to come here? Or else, are you an NPC/in-game character Smile

Going to fiddle with the letters on the homepage. I can tell you something for free: This has squat-all to do with Anon.

FYI - No package yet.

Shocked

Oh damn. Www.missionicefly.com would now certainly be an always-open tab in my browser if it wasn't for the annoying audio that cannot be switched off Sad Smile

I was poking around the Mission Icefly site and the message that everyone is talking about can be saved as an image.



Looking forward to Thursday. Also wondering will this be considered for Chaotic Fiction after the countdown ends?

This is pretty clear to me. Mission Icefly is close to being underway, and with his blue package (he being the only one to recieve one) is going to be our leader.

Cheers. Thanks for wasting your time in reading that long paragraph. lol.


A marine leader, looks like they made the right choice! I'm okay with this.

According to the w3 schools website:

"The <input> tag is used to select user information.

An input field can vary in many ways, depending on the type attribute. An input field can be a text field, a checkbox, a password field, a radio button, a button, and more."

It's probably just where you fill in your username.

Hello folks. Just a thought about the new text. Maybe the fact that "operation reboot" is hidden in a collection of letters on missionicefly is a hint that we should be looking for hidden messages in the text on testsubjects.com. Some of the wording on testsubjects is pretty weird, could just be for effect, but it could be because they needed certain letters to fall in certain places. Perhaps the added letters on missionicefly means we will find a message on testsubjects by stripping away some characters. I will try a few patterns and let you know what I find, but thought I'd put it out there if anyone is better with ciphers than me.

Been checking mission icefly for 10 mins. nothing new as the timer passes the four day mark. At least as far as text at the bottom is concerned.

Edit: Since I had just copied and pasted the first string of letters, here is the screen shot:
