[DEAD SERIES] AFriendsGifts
Maybe some actual ARG stuff?

Earlier today I was sent an inbox message on YouTube from a user named AFriendsGifts:

Quote:
Subject: I met a man, he tipped his hat And drew his cain

Body text: his name is in this riddle


Then soon received another message from the same user:

Quote:
Subject: hey

Body text: sorry about that last message, i got that riddle in the mail,
can you solve it?


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I think "his" name is Cain, judging that in the riddle, "cane" is misspelled.


He has some videos on his channel.

Another possibility for his name is Andrew. I'll check the videos out when I have time.

I'm more inclined to think his name is Andrew because of the capitalized A. Last name could be Cain because it's a very obvious typo and I really don't want to consider the possibility this person actually thinks that's how you spell "cane".

edit: Well I actually watched the videos. Disregard what I said about "cain".
Edit 2: Also I re-read the message to viewers where he spells cane correctly so clearly I'm not paying any attention tonight.

Solution:

Or, at least, this is the most likely solution.

I messaged him back my answer, "Cain", but the person with the account answered back saying that he didn't mean to send me the messages and that he meant to send those to his friends only, along with his friends' friends.

EDIT: A new message from the poster on the channel:

Quote:
Thanks to DrStevzious117 for solving that message

But I still dont think thats the answer.


Do you guys think that the story won't progress unless we solve this riddle?

Huh, so we know for almost a fact that the answer to the riddle is "Andrew". I wonder how that will be useful here.

Also, very interesting video. The person on camera looks very suspicious, and of course doesn't belong there, so this may either be the antagonist or another protagonist.

DIDN'T I SAY THAT THE ANSWER WAS ANDREW!?!

Anyway, now that I have that out of the way, that was an...interesting update. I wonder what we'll see next?

I would like to point out that I also said his name is Andrew.

So I just watched the videos, and the reliance on slender is already starting to bug me. However, I like the audio distortion, and I'm hoping this gets good.

Ok, please tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this is Michael trying to make some amazing series, and then coming out and saying "I'm the creator" like the creator of ICANSEETHEGIANT did. There are too many signs that point towards it, especially the type of distortion and how much of it there is when Slenderman isn't even seen on camera. Just watch, I'm 99.9% sure this is yet another attempt by Michael.

You know, a lot of series use the posterize effect . Also, there is often distortion when slendy is off cam. It's kinda part of the whole deal.

Chill out there, Michael. It honestly does look a lot like your work. You don't need to go off on us about it.

EDIT: New post on the channel:

Quote:
I'm in class right now, and i just noticed that there is a video on my YouTube channel with no name.
But the weird thing is: I took that video last night.
Well i was recording with a cell phone at the time, maybe i pressed upload or something
and forgot.
besides there doesn't seem anything wrong with it.
