 		Bwaaaah. So many ideas. If any or all of those are true? Exactly where are they connected to their purpose?

I'm sorry but it makes absolutely no sense at all. For all the reason I already said on the site. He clearly has no idea what's going on, because he has no idea who 68,000 is, or that the site has only been up for a few months not years. He doesn't give any indication as to how he decoded it, and the letters are different from what we've already decoded. The way he got 2011 from those two symbols was hilariously bad, and on top of all that he's talking about the end of the world. It's the biggest troll post i've seen in weeks.


Do any of us know for SURE what's going on? I mean, we are all doing the same thing this guys is, right? Just guessing and theorizing. He obviously did his research and came up with some stuff we haven't even said yet... so who are we to just blow it off and say it's wrong? We should take his theories and look into them, like we do with anyone else's... unless we just wanna sit here shooting down ideas until August 3rd. (whenever that may be)

8 march (3-8-11 or 8-3-11) is international women's day
ties in with the original info about the female lawyer?

 		Also this was posted on reddit

"looking at this(the first diagram) again, the stones marked as "FOR CASTING" and "DONT THROW STONE"[the drawing actually says CONT. not DONT.] lead me to believe that that bible quote about adultery might be applicable, since it looks like a person buried to the waist, which is how adulterers are killed by old religious custom. I think buried to the waist is how they killed women, men to the shoulders, so I'd say it's a woman in the picture."

 		bump



. . . I'm kidding.
That's a very good point from reddit though. I was wondering why it was buried like that. . . If there is a bag over it like the theory diagram showed, that would make EVEN MORE sense. Who knows? Maybe if the adulterer was a woman, this whole 8-3-11 "operation" is to prove her innocence? Sorry, I'm rambling.

No, 'yep' is going over ideas, trying to think of new leads. That kind of thing is good, and keeps us all thinking. What Anonymous Coward did was make up a string of letters that he could then decode to make a message we wanted. It was completely seperate to the letters which have already been decoded, and was based off no previous clues we've gotten up to this point. It's not helpful.

On the topic of 8-3-11 being used as a non-US date (not just an australian date), March 8th is international women's day as has been said, which ties into Arabella and the theme of women's rights. I think that's as far as that reference goes though, because they've repeatedly shown they're using 8-3-11 to mean the 3rd of August, not the 8th of March.

EDIT: In fact, if you go to the leaked image and try and translate along with him, you won't even get past the first word before he's used two different symbols for S and two different symbols for O. He wasn't just mislead into thinking he'd found something relevant, he actually made it up for the sole purpose of trolling some people into thinking this was an end of the world thing.

 		I swear, if the broadcast activates when the dummy moves, and what's broadcasted is a girl screaming (as she, the doll, is struggling around) There is going to be some major brick pooping. By me.

one more thing i found but this is even further out there

http://www.thecorktree.org/ (based on the corktree image)

basically a post about how god is speaking to the author through music and magazines

in the questions and answers on formspring

"God no" is mentioned 3 times (i think?)
They believe in a higher power
And the answer to where is god is "everywhere"

but once again i dont know how or why this would be connected

 		I came across that site as well. I'm sure it's related. I also googled if cork trees grew in georgia, but that's how I got that site.
