 		The Not So Eiffel Tower
It's becoming glaringly obvious that images13 on FATP isn't the Eiffel Tower. I've been looking at the list of Eiffel Tower replicas and have a few I believe could be hits. I really want to believe it will end up being one in a "soviet" country.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Eiffel_Tower_replicas

Another feeling. What if that's a replica Eiffel tower being held in the mountains...trying to illustrate The Eifel Mountains in Germany?

I keep wanting that front page of 16 images to be a visual puzzle. I've tried to think about the words related to the images, but i get no good progress towards an acrostic. Then I started to wonder: Why are there two cats? Two images use that rainbow loom craft stuff. Could we pair the images up? Two images have beads with letters on them, although I would rather that second one be more about the star-shaped boxes or the music notes which are more promiment. The jewelry box looked like it had bracelets in it, but at least one thing in there looks more like a headband -- and if the wreath is another head/hair accesory, I could make those a pair. The ice cream sundae is really tough to pair, as are the Eiffel Tower and the paint-splattered shoes. OK, maybe there isn't a matching game here after all? Wishful thinking?


What if it's a message?

Chicago, Sunday, fly, see you (there is a reflection), Megan, do you want to talk?, John Goodman is one fat cat, love you

I would love to try to figure out the rest, but I have to leave for work.

 		Or.. Maybe she hasnt answered because she is missing?

Could we be in for another missing person hunt?

I've looked back and correct me please, but did we ever uncover the initial steps that led us to Tagruato's employees of the months?
Its kinda odd that you cant get back to the EOTM page fro within the main site.. even if you just want to read the other info there.. unless you use the provided EOTM link..Is it possible we missed something in that area that alerted Megan to look at this site with his tshirt to get to FAPT?

Maybe meowing up the wrong tree, but curious...

 		As far as I understand it.. some enterprising person saw the auto-respond emails that we were receiving with January/February Employee of the Month 2016 and tried all kinds of things on tagruto.jp looking for employees -- and ultimately arrived at tagruato.jp/employeeofthemonth There doesn't seem to be any other links to that page.

I've been staring at Eiffel Towers and am mostly convinced that this is a small model that has been photoshopped in somehow, rather than a real-life replica in the wild.

Finally, those musical notes have to be bright blue cookies, right? I can't figure out what else they might be.

Ah yes, brilliant! I also found them here: http://www.countryporch.com/darice/view.asp?item=9199-82#sthash.B5AHgd5H.dpbs

Okay, so this just continues the 'crafty' theme.

They're just foam craft shapes.

And I'm certain the Eiffel Tower is a small model in front of a window with some blurring around the edges. Nothing that can't be done quickly in Photoshop, or even in Instagram. It's unidentifiable on purpose.

 		Hack job
I removed the tower to see if anything would stand out without it to distract. Clone stamp for the win. I was hoping inputting the edited image into TinyEye would give me a match but instead it still finds the occurrences with the tower still in place :/

 		I messaged Peter at Slashfilm.com on twitter and he wrote up an article on what's happened so far. http://www.slashfilm.com/10-cloverfield-lane-viral/

I love how everyone else who has become employee of the month is happy while Howard looks miserable.

Did they add onto Bold Futura's section on Tagruato's website? Seems like there is more added about secrecy and military application.

According to this, it's the same as it was before: http://cloverfield.wikia.com/wiki/Bold_Futura

Doesn't look familiar to me at all. Darn. It seriously looks like it could be anywhere. :/

 		So, FYI, the guy from Slash films is good buddies with Dan. Here they are at the Star Wars Premiere together:

Guy may know more than he's saying. Or at very least he could find out more if he wanted to.

Also I'm still feeling pretty sure those mountains are the Hollywood Hills. They just look so familiar to me, like they are the mountains behind Stars Hallow (AKA Warner Brothers Burbank). You can even see a few houses up on the hills. Which would be consistent with LA.

 		Gator Eiffel Tower?
ibeleafit posted a lightened version of the Eiffel Tower image from FATP on reddit. Is it me or do you see alligators on the base of the tower? Is this edit to fit the Louisiana location?

http://i.imgur.com/58YbN9y.png

There's also another thing in the base of the tower, but I'm unsure what it is. Starfish? Compass?

To me it looks like a badge or service medal with a star in the center surrounded by filigree.

edit - I see what you mean about seeing alligators though! I also see dinosaurs and someone else earlier in the forums commented that it looked to them like bodies.

Yea, to me that looks like a 3-D compass rose.
