Has anyone considered running the Frog Fractions Reimagined album through a spectrogram?


I've ran the whole album through the one in foobar. Nothing interesting pops up I'm afraid.

 		Guys, frogfractions2.com now redirects to a game on Kongregate called "frog in prauge". And what seems to be a bad copy of frog fractions. The only thing I noticed was some interesting comments at the end... Thoughts?

Any interpretations on the video? Or the audio, for that matter?

Looked up Numbers 6:9 (469) because I was thinking about Numbers 5:1, and while the verse itself didn't contain much (something about dying men and shaving), 6:3 & 6:4 are interesting:

Quote:
"He shall seperate himself from wine and strong drink, and shall drink no vinegar of wine, or vinegar of strong drink, neithar shall he drink any liquor of grapes, nor eat moist grapes, or dried."
"All the days of his separation shall he eat nothing that is made of the vine tree, from the kernels even to the husk."


Basically, no wine, no bread.
This sounds like a coincidence, however I found this in the New Testament:

John (4th NT book) 6:9 reads:
Quote:
"There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?"


This sounds much more suspect.

Quote:
A.B.I.G.S.


Ashley Brewery Indie Game Studio?

Also, there is a reoccuring theme of the 19th century, specifically the 1860s (chalkboard at the end of the video, time travellers during meetup, twinbread copyright at 1863, etc). There are a couple of possibilities for what is going on with this:

    These TTs are from an alternate timeline where time travel is discovered before or during the 1860s.

    These TTs are in OTL, and they are the only ones that know about this time travel by the 1860s. (I think this is the likeliest. It explains the ability to contact us, while the former has trouble with that.)

    These TTs are actually from the future, and have dressed up as people from the 1860s to blend in. (This has a lot of inconsistencies, however. Why aren't the time travellers in the Kickstarter video dressed up like us? Why don't the time travellers sound like they're from the future? Why aren't the time travellers' costumes consistent? etc.)

And this may be a bit of a stretch, but could it be that Twinbeard and Twinbread are seperate, possibly rivals or in a conflict? All of the TTs seem to be aligned to Teambread some way or another, except for the TTs in the Kickstarter video.

EDIT: Also, it may be important that after John 6:9, John goes on to talk about how Jesus then splits up the bread for the thousands of followers. I'm not entirely sure.

 		Is anyone able to help breathe some life back into this? Current state feels like a mish mash of unsubstantiated conspiracy theories.

Could we have missed anything simple, like the password we missed?

 		Before I start I just want to state that my computing capabalities pale in comparison to those before me, so if anything all I will have are theories.

The puzzle has not been solved yet. Although I'm sure most of you are aware of the fact, but I wanted to make sure so I emailed TwinBeard Studios and got this reply

I'm fairly positive this has nothing to do with the clue, although his word choice of number instead of address threw me off for a bit, but it was probably nothing.

Another thing, and it may have been mentioned and I just glossed over it, but I didn't see anyone mention the twitter post from @Obeardy on April fifth:

https://twitter.com/obeardy/status/452609380878258176

The image in question was taken at Taronga Zoo, which is in Australia. I wouldn't be surprised if there was something to do with everything being upside down in Australia, maybe we were looking at something with the wrong perspective?

Maybe someone could convert the image sound file? I honestly don't know how to go about doing so.

No more butts, pls. Crying or Very sad

 		After realising most of my friends never played frog fractions and recently enjoying bringing them into the fold I have come here to try and find some kind of solace. I realise this thread has never been too active but I find myself tumbling down a dark Fez-style rabbit hole, jumping at every tweet Jim Crawford has made recently and it's making me crazy. D:

A few days ago http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=404111723&searchtext=shower+with+your+dad a trailer for this game was posted on GiantBomb and though I've long grown past biting at suspicious games like that this one... seems to directly reference Frog Fractions. :/
The bottom left character in said trailer is a frog shooting his tongue, I am not familiar with a game that could be as significant as Frog Fractions in this spot, especially given most of the other characters seem to reference extremely well known or (game) culturally significant things. D: the time stamps are ~1:10 and ~1:15.

The Giant Bomb post describes the video as "really something else",
the video is highly polished but then all of a sudden seems to have jarring elements that I don't understand D:,
the greenlight account is almost brand new and the cool trailer doesn't seem to reference any of the gameplay shots given,
I am reminded that they describe in the kickstarter "it could be xxxxx 2015 simulator or something" but it seems way too obvious and on the nose D:

and stuff like that just keeps stabbing my poor, stupid hobo brain so I'm posting this in an effort to make it stop D:

I don't even expect anyone to read this at that point but I had to throw it to something cause *no one* seems to be takling about it. D:

 		On the note of Shower With Your Dad, it also points out one of the eventual races will be titled "DAD DIVISIONS"

 		 No frogs in the shower!
Darn, sorry you guys, but it looks like Shower With Your Dad Simulator 2015 isn't actually Frog Fractions 2.

At least, according to Jim Crawford.

I sent him an email with a link to the Shower With Your Dad Simulator 2015, see the image below for details.

https://imgur.com/6ZKDSA7

I moused over the 'this' hyperlink so that you could see in the bottom left that it leads to this link: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=404111723

EDIT: Whoops, I just realized that it didn't actually show his email, jim(AT)goombas.org, so I moused over his name and took another screenshot.

 		I want to explore the theme of C64 some more. (The Tape, "Kernal" of Truth reference) It's entirely likely that FF2 could be a C64 release, or that there could be something out there in the C64 world to look for.

 		Domestic Dog Simulator
Could it be this: http://store.steampowered.com/app/340340/

It's C64 themed. By an obscure developer with little to no background information, it'd be an easy front company. Even if it's not actually in DDS yet, they keep talking about a new DLC being worked on. maybe in september like the KS said they'll put a "DLC" that's actually FF2. I already contacted the developer to find out more.

 		Notthe dogs
Emailed Jim, he said "Nope, sorry!" so it's not. It's got to be out there somewhere, maybe. Maybe try looking at this from another perspective than the breadcrumbs we've been given.

 		I doubt it, but does anyone have news on Frog Fractions 2?
I'd really like to know.
