Main Page > List of Investigations > Frog Fractions 2 > Red Pages Podcast The Red Pages Podcast, co-hosted by Frog Fractions 2 collaborator Justin Borntick, has tied into the ARG on multiple occasions.
Contents
Background
On this podcast the hosts — Justin Bortnick, Casey 'Gord' Weederman, and Paul Kim — discuss books and video games with various guests such as Steve Gaynor, Ashly Burch and Jim Crawford.
Clues have been given in the podcast itself and on its twitter.
- 2015-10-11 A tweet with borgified King of Spades and a message from Herbie.
- 2016-02-06 A code in the Comment field of ID3 tags of the MP3 file (episode#68, guest Jim Crawford) lead to the Museum of Jurassic Technology event.
Patreon
Two ARGers have chosen to support the Red Pages Podcast on Patreon, and as part of their reward, occasionally receive a physical item in the mail. Justin has stated on his twitch stream that these items are important.
Items appear to be numbered by fractions of twelve, but come in out of order.
Jul 2016 - 3/12
A postcard. The back included the message "Help I'm a bug", and the fraction "3/12".
Aug 2016 - 11/12
Theeyeshaveyou letter
Sep 2016 - 4/12
A letter with just "The", styled like an essay from SpongeBob animated television series. 4/12 is in the bottom-left corner of the second sheet of paper.
Oct 2016 - 9/12
A laminated book excerpt. It appears to be a quote from Writing Machines by N. Katherine Hayles - 2002
November 2016 - 1/12
Fake latin generated with a lorem ipsum generator (probably lipsum.com) with some other words blended in. 1/12 on the backside. The paper was torn into quarters, different backers got different pairs of quarters.
- All images of the letter recieved by Norgg: http://imgur.com/a/BGTDz
- All images of the letter recieved by frogmc3rd (jimmc3rd): http://imgur.com/a/V1HNH
Typed in together by Randomiser: here. Words paired up according to their position (by word count) in the paragraph: here
Notable ones:
- 11: ridiculous It's not even funny — a Kingdom of Loathing reference
- 37: up 'Til frogs do fractions
- 69: I can see you now
- 78: be Sure to drink your — a meme reference
December 2016
A hand-drawn QR code that links to a jsfiddle page with some numbers. No x/12 fraction this time. The numbers can be decoded from base36 (1036 is a hint for that) into:
NO TH1S I5 N0T 4RG R3L4T3D HAHAH4HA JK IT IS JK 1T 1S NOT JK 1T1S jk
We don't know yet if those extra 1337-sp34k characters are decoding into something too, it's an open line of investigation.
