Horns down. If we go quiet, it won’t be permanent. May the great mother protect her servants in their greatest time of need. She guides our hands.Does this mean they are giving up... or preparing for war?
* Thanks to Matthew S, Richard P, and Dan B for emailing me first.
So the plot thickens.....
ReplyDeleteI am excited to see what develops of this. Does the monster attack suddenly stop what happens?
Also, quick question: does Cloverfield take place on Thursday night into Friday morning, or Friday night into Saturday morning (i.e. 17th into 18th or 18th into 19th?)
Thanks, I hope we can find out more soon!
OH COME ON!!! one day left and this is what we get???
ReplyDeletethis ARG has to keep going past tomorrow. I mean, i think its pretty obvious that it will.
I think this means that they have surrendered to Tag. God, this is so frustrating, i just wanna know everything!
Could great mother be a refrence to Noriko?
ReplyDeletethe great mother??.....is that the monster? if it is, that means they know about it..which means they probably created it?
ReplyDeletewhat the EFF?
ReplyDeleteOoh, is T.I.D.O saying 'MGP' is Mother Nature's rage personified?
ReplyDeleteCould it be..that they know what's about to happen?
ReplyDeleteCan some one tell me what this means? I don't really pay attention to TIDOwave so please help!
ReplyDelete-Fluffy
I was fully preparing this ARG to wrap itself up... Why hasn't Randy contacted Jamie per Teddy's recording? Where is Janice's picture? Why is Jamie not being crazy? Whose pictures are 1-18-08? Why have the Myspace pages gone dead? WTF?
ReplyDeleteWill it continue after the movie? Will there be updates?
sounds like a war speech, if so...
ReplyDeletegood luck Green Warriors...
maybe they are being chased into a corner and cant do nething and picked off for being tido
ReplyDeletePerhaps the monster is TIDO's avenging angel? They know its coming, perhaps they drew it to the Tang ship(s) heading for New York to create a major PR disaster for Tang.
ReplyDeleteHorns down means preparing to charge. "If we go quiet..." is their justification for the charge. The rest is a battle prayer.
ReplyDeleteListen to this .. i think its a cryptography sentence. please dont aks me why. but its to fuzzy to be anything else.
ReplyDeletei tried playfair but no luck
Warm towel and swiss army knife are still in my head as mayor key words
i am fully convinced TIDO is either just as or more evil than Tag. They either know what is about to happen and do nothing so that Tag can suffer the consequences of their actions, or they are directly responsible for what is about to happen.
ReplyDeletemaybe there committing mass suicide like that one cult porcupine tree wrote a song about.
ReplyDeletethe cult with the quarters in their pockets.
meh, i doubt we're that lucky.
I'm assuming the "great mother" is referring to mother earth they talk about often. I also think this is just a way to let us know that this story line will continue after the movie when it says "If we go quiet, it won't be permanent." In other words, this is the last post on tido until sometime after the movie and then we'll pick back up where the movie leaves off at some point.
ReplyDeleteWell, the great mother is fairly obviously Mother Earth (thus the Mere-Terre in their name). "Horns down" could either be "quit trumpeting all our movements to the enemy" or a call to arms (like a bull lowering his horns before he charges)... or it could be a not-terribly-veiled reference to Ganu Yoshida (remember the horns the "mystery hacker" placed on him?).
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure whether this is considered a spoiler (feel free to edit out this paragraph if it is, Dennis), but I understand that the events of Cloverfield do not actually take place on 1-18-08. The ARG might conceivably go on for some time.
I can't shake the feeling that we're missing something crucial hidden in these TIDOwave posts. There are several cryptic references in some of the older entries... maybe the film will make it clearer.
I believe that this will continue if it doesnt then we must be missing some sites or something.
ReplyDeleteDennis, you forgot ME telling you about it in Cloverfield Manga Translated!!!!
ReplyDeleteI dunno if I got there first, though, I'm happy I finally found an update by myself.
Horns Down?
ReplyDeleteThey've taken a defensive position. They must think they're still in the fight but can't do anything but regroup.
Has anyone checked google earth for a cloverfield tie in? i know it was mentioned months ago that there might be an image on google earth near new york.
ReplyDeletei cant see it happening at all though.
this whole campaign has just turned bizarre.... not sure whether its being rushed but its a bit disappointing atm =/
my friend told me the other week that it might be set in 1969!! haha
very bizarre indeed. should still be a good movie regardless, but completely different from what i was hoping for :/
thanks to dennis for keeping everyone up to date, cheers mate.
Folks, it's saying "horns down," not "tails down." Since it is the former, it can be interpreted as a call to arms, in preparation to charge.
ReplyDeletehey all, new poster, been reading for awhile. Something someone said up there earlier drew my attention. They mentioned the sentence that had the word "playfair"...well on the risk of sounding stupid (and if you all end up thinking that, then so be it, I dont mind ^_^ ) but isnt there such a thing as a playfair code? or some type of coding involving that word (yes I got it from National Treasure, so not sure if its real)
ReplyDeletejust throwing it out there to anyone who may be able to take that any farther if possible!
I just re-read the posting @ tido...and it seems to me that they know whats going on...and that there just getting ready to re-build after it's all over--
ReplyDeleteI'm kinda disappointed. I thought we would at least know more about the monster and its origin before the movie. Oh well, at least I get to see the movie tonite! YAY!
