I mean, i'm 99% convinced, I'm just saying that I've been this sure about other ARG things and seen them fall through.

I'm excited, and will for sure keep my eye here though.

[blaqueice]

just wondering...

how closely should we watch http://500rads.blogspot.com/

the most recent post directly refers to the Super 8 trailer...

I did not take part in the Cloverfield arg...do I need to back track on this blog?

Was it ever actually mentioned on the ScariestThing website? If not, ignore the Rads website. It's a game hijack.

If they have a legit web domain for the main game site, they're not gonna use a shitty blogspot website for another website.

It's completely unrelated until actually mentioned on the main game's website. Use that as the rule of thumb.

I've only heard mention of 500rads.blogspot in a few random posts here and there and remember it being pegged as a game hijack. Really doesn't seem to be IG.

That blog has been dubious at best, pretty much shown to be OOG. The key factor to note is that all the info there relative to the trailer and such is showing up in a sort of reactive manner. Nothing in the trailer points to it either. In the Cloverfield viral the trailer pointed to a pair of sites (1-18-08.com and slusho.jp) to which all the other sites basically directly connected. When new things appeared on official sites like the first mention of kaitei no mitsu, the other site(s) where it was found had content predating the official site's emergence of info. There was also a recursive validation of sorts, like how Tagruato.jp pointed to Slusho.jp, but never pointed to the gamejack site for the Bold Futura subsidiary.

Another telling thing is that 500rads has made many references to Cloverfield and is supposed to be happening in real time, not in the past as Super 8 is, and JJ Abrams has said this is 'unrelated'. I don't think JJ wants to contradict himself so badly here, and he never actually managed to do so for Cloverfield.

Looking at the trailer, I honestly see a lot of Spielberg's influence here.

I'm really excited about this game now.

I see 20 [ ] slots so I'm hoping for a lot of content

Wow people, great job everybody!
That looks awesome!

This is all I can add now, because I have to borrow my laptop for some hours, and perhaps cannot analyze the program from another pc.

But I'm happy, they are doing it again.

Ok so now the number 1 slot says "previously accessed". The countdown is still going, though.

Like the trailer, there is also something written in the film going by the lens. More than one grouping of letters. At first I assumed it was the scariestthingIeversaw again, but I see an L, K, and a Z in there.. My brain can't quite catch it, anyone able to freezeframe or hack the flash to read it?

[dharma22]

I checked the source code of "scariestthingieversaw.com" and I noticed a long line of letters and numbers. Here's a section:

%3C%73%63%72%69%70%74%20%74%79%70%65%3D%22%74%65%78%74%2F%6A%61%76%61%73%63%

Is it just part of the website coding?

[amandel]

dharma22, your string converted from Hex reads: "<script type="text/javasc". So that's page code. Am also keen for news.

[kosmopol]

Am I wrong with the countdown, or in 7 days there will something happen?

Because:
