[Trailhead?] Amrazago
Youtube.

Hey. I Thought I would stop by here, im a lurker but never REALLY had the honor of helping out, so I thought I could come to you all.

What I bring is this: Amrazago. My friend, a fellow ARG Maniac sent me this to dig into, and I have to say, it looks like it has potential.

This looks interesting. From what I can gather from the video:

He woke up in a strange location. The building says "OPAL1" on it. Google says this is student accommodation in various parts of the country.

http://opalstudents.com/

The look fo the front of the building to me suggests he's in Newport:

http://opalstudents.com/student-accommodation/newport/opal-1-oon/features/

Wallet has a note in it that says "Forget". He appears to have a £5 note and some change in his wallet.

Click here for the Google Maps Streetview of his location.

definitely the right place.

Do we post a comment on his YouTube to tell him where he is or do we assume the story will unfold and he'll find out. He's not specifically asked for help.

You were right about Newport.

This looks cool.

Not really a lot to go by from what I can see on the new video. Other than confirmation of the location.

One thing I think I should point out, I saw it and called "Slender" ARG, but... complete amnesia doesn't fit Slendy's MO. Even in marble hornets, Jay doesnt remember the 7 months... but he knows who he is, what has happened... This guy seems to be completely out. Who knows, we have to wait and see. Although, I cant wait for the next vid. I want a name to call the guy.

If Slendy was in the UK I'd gasp with excitement!

He posted an update to his Youtube account which says:

Quote:
Following a suggestion from someone who has seen my videos (thank god) I went and asked at the front desk here who booked me in. The response I got was: "You booked yourself in at the beginning of this month. You're booked in until the end of the year." I tried to see what name the room is booked under but she saw and gave me a funny look.

The number of questions is building every day.


And just three hours ago:

I've got so many questions but no one to answer them. Guess it's back to exploring the area and seeing what I can turn up.

The name on the IM looks like morse code to me.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
..-. --- .-.


Which would translate to:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
F O R


Any ideas?

No idea on the morse-code name though.
I'll try to see if anything turns out when its written in binary.

Me too. Sent a variety of questions and will post if I get any interesting answers.

Amrazago's avatar picture thing on the chat is interesting... A yellowy orange dot. Hmmmm...

TWO DAYS LATE LITTLE DOGGY.

NOT MINE TO GIVE

ALGSININHPIT


The gibberish is no ROT and nothing struck me for anagram sollutions, but maybe i'm just blind.

Two days late for what?

Don't know about the two days late, but the gibberish is:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
humble wordless (there are other anagrams, but that looks most likely)

and more interestingly,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
IN PLAIN SIGHT
