I need help identifying the leaves in video 5.

At 0:29, you can clearly see leaves, to me, these look like Acer circinatum 'Vine maple' leaves (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acer_circinatum), which would mean he is, in fact, living in British Columbia.

Edit 1:
They usually grow as shrubs, which explains why it doesn't seem like it's coming from a tree.

Yeah, I just said BC because his profile says he lives in Canada, so I'm assuming he put correct information

Edit 1:
It's sometimes cultivated in Ontario, too, but only as an ornamental tree.

You don't want to share information because I offended you? I thought you had to be over 13 to register on this forum.

Anyways, the plants don't grow natively farther than 300 km from the ocean, so he lives in middle - left BC (the right side is past the 300 km mark), and their mostly in southwest BC, so we can exclude the north part of it. However, Vancouver is southwest BC, so he likely lives in Vancouver; as it fits the geographical area and is the most populous place in the province.

Doesn't that slow the progress of the game a bit? 2 heads are better than one, right?

Why make a post about this? I wish I knew how to report. Can anybody tell me how?

The tent to me looks like "Sherbet logs" to me, but when I google that I just get a quilt making site.

Yeah, I informed her she's a hypocrite and now I'm her sworn enemy or something. So much she'd rather block my posts then progress in the ARG.

depends to be honest im waiting on a mod reply because of this issue. , its not slowing progress of the game at all. i have people on here who whole heartedly agree with me about this user bullying and harassing and trolling so no its not slowing my progress at all... but yea im still working on it, im just sharing my info via twitter and via pm here.

edit - TBH im about ready to walk away from this one because of one user which is a shame really because im enjoying it but its just not worth being harassed over.

Also, notice that most of the times there's a path beneath him, this implies a National Park or a walking trail. It is not, however, a walking trail, unless he goes to more than one, as in video 4 there's what appears to be a bridge.


right im gona look for national parks

edit: found a list there is 44 in canada :/ hmmm i hope finding the location will help us with the story


Does this include provincial parks, or only national parks? You could use Google Maps and narrow down the ones in southwestern BC.
