methodsofrevolution.com was a website found on March 28, 2020. It contains the remains of what appears to be a blog and several hidden pages that contain images, sound files, and various miscellaneous items of interest.

The main function of the site appeared to be a method of voting on the next action taken in videos on Jadusable's YouTube channel after the premiere of gateway.wmv. Links at the bottom of the page included partial conversations from as-of-yet unrevealed characters, nonsensical images, and most prominently, a polling feature. Several hidden pages were found to contain images both used and unused, audio clips, and recursive links.

A full map of this website is under construction.

Site-wide details

The site has a header image that collapses when the user scrolls down. The sitename is at the bottom of the header. The title of the current page appears on the left side of the page, while contents appear on the right. A directory containing several links is located at the bottom of each page; the number of links it contains has changed.

March 28, 2020 – Prior to discovery

March 28, 2020 – Post-intrusion

This iteration of the site was activated at 11:12pm.

March 29, 2020

Indexed pages

The following pages are visibly linked to from other pages. They will be listed in the order they appeared.

Main page

The main page contains blog posts made prior to the site's discovery. The title to the left reads, "POSTS."

March 28, 2020 – Prior to discovery

There were two posts on this page. In chronological order:

  • January 23, 2013: ...And Flint Struck Steel
    • There was a website here once. It’s gone now.
  • March 6, 2014: UNDER CONSTRUCTION
    • Welcome to the webpage! We are currently under construction so please check back soon!

      Structure is fundamental to the way we live life – we use it to refine, improve, and progress ourselves, and in return it helps give us a sense of purpose and ultimately defines our position in life. Our life’s structure is the amalgamation of our learned habits – from both our environment and our personality – from those we gain either positive or negative traits. We are integrated into this symbiotic relationship from all but the word go and it’s the key to how we live our lives as adults. In school you follow your teacher’s orders and are given set times to do certain tasks. Eventually the unfamiliar becomes familiar, apprehension turns to comfort, and order is once again achieved because you start to know what to expect with each passing day.

March 28, 2020 – Post-intrusion

There were two posts on this page. The "...and Flint Struck Steel" post remained; "UNDER CONSTRUCTION" was altered, and contained the following:

  • March 6, 2014: UNDER CONSTRUCTION
    • Welcome to the webpage! We are currently under construction so please check back soon!

      An interesting philosopher once mused that Hell isn’t the cliched fire and brimstone inferno that awaits all of those who commit terrible deeds in life. Instead, they described it as a simple phenomenon – on your last day on Earth the person you became will meet the person you could have become.

31022070 14:25:05 xxxxx: Yo.

31022070 14:25:26 xxxxxxxxxxx: maerlie is having another one of her "episodes" again.

31022070 14:27:08 xxxxx: another one?

31022070 14:27:26 xxxxxxxxxxx: yeah

31022070 14:33:11 xxxxx: I told you it was a bad idea to get her involved in this

31022070 14:36:14 xxxxxxxxxxx: what should we do?

31022070 14:36:30 xxxxx: Right now?

31022070 14:37:04 xxxxx: Nothing, I guess. Nothing we can do. No one is going to believe her anyway.

31022070 14:37:31 xxxxxxxxxxx: What if she mentions us by name?

31022070 14:38:02 xxxxx: Who gives a shit? What can they do? We're a roleplaying forum, remember? She took it a little too seriously and went a little crazy. That's all.

31022070 14:39:17 xxxxxxxxxxx: <deleted>

31022070 14:39:32 xxxxx: delete that

31022070 14:40:15 xxxxxxxxxxx: I just get paranoid sometimes.

31022070 14:40:32 xxxxx: If something was going to happen it would have happened by now with him. There's no link to us.

31022070 14:40:45 xxxxxxxxxxx: His parents were pretty hysterical

31022070 14:40:52 xxxxx: Dude.

31022070 14:40:58 xxxxx: Enough.

31022070 14:41:35 xxxxx: What are you even doing looking up that kind of stuff anyway? It's just going to distract you. It's over and done with and has been for several years now. Move on.

This page contains links to two category pages: January 2013 and March 2014. Each leads to one of the two front page blog posts:

This page contains the following text:

  • I don’t know why I’m back here again. It must be years ago.

    The vibrancy of the city always seemed to bring something out of me, but I couldn’t feel it.

    It wasn’t home and it never would be, but there was something paradoxically calming about New York. Despite all of the energy and excited commotion, it’s the only time in my life I ever felt invisible. I watched the waves of people outside seemingly flow downstream along the street corner. It feels like it would be so easy to join them, to submerge myself and let the current take me to a new life, somewhere.

    A reassuring hand on my shoulder wakes me from my dream.

    “It’s time to go.”

    Sure, I responded, I get it.

    We gather our things and exit the lobby of the hotel. My body tenses as rain embraces us – the weather outside is bitter and biting. Without missing a beat, I watch her confidently raise an arm and wave down a taxi. Her eyes looked different to me. I saw them burn with a fiery determination, as if in those few minutes she had solved a great riddle within herself. I could only admire her quiet ferocity for a few seconds before becoming acutely aware that it was something I couldn’t bring myself to match.

    I used some of her flame to kindle my own and I made it through, preparing myself for the worst.


    Except that moment never came. Why did it bring me back here? It’s time to resolve these old issues. There is a more immediate threat right now.

31026180 09:43:02 xxxxx: Any luck?

31026180 09:43:36 xxxxxxxx: Not really. I've been delving through a lot of old writings about them. But there's so much litter on the internet of bullshit that it's hard to find anything concerete.

31026180 09:43:55 xxxxx: I hear you. I've been doing my own investigating using that onion search engine but have gotten mixed results.

31026180 09:44:13 xxxxxxxx: Like?

31026180 09:44:13 xxxxx: I mean...

31026180 09:44:18 xxxxx: Theoretically?

31026180 09:44:32 xxxxxxxx: That's the conclusion I've drawn as well.

31026180 09:44:47 xxxxx: But if that is the case, as soon as we did we immediately lost control of it.

31026180 09:45:14 xxxxxxxx: I think you're operating under the assumption that we ever had any to begin with

31026180 09:45:21 xxxxxxxx: Do you trust your VPN?

31026180 09:45:30 xxxxx: ...You mean VPNs?

31026180 09:45:34 xxxxxxxx: Right.

31026180 09:45:49 xxxxx: Yea, I'm pretty thorough with all of that.

31026180 09:45:57 xxxxx: Honestly, I get it. I'm pretty paranoid about someone spying on us too.

31026180 09:46:22 xxxxxxxx: There's a strong possibility that we were most certainly on some lists before December, and aren't anymore. I'm not sure how else you explain that breach back in 2010.

31026180 09:46:22 xxxxxxxxxxx: Hey guys

31026180 09:46:31 xxxxxxxx: Hi.

31026180 09:46:33 xxxxx: Hey D.

31026180 09:46:47 xxxxxxxxxxx: Tbh I still don't understand why that happened

31026180 09:47:02 xxxxxxxx: Well it did.

31026180 09:47:11 xxxxxxxx: and it's over now.

31026180 09:47:15 xxxxxxxx: Let's move on.

31026180 09:47:17 xxxxx: Whoever breached us back then I'm pretty sure have all been left behind now. It's been years since anything. You're worrying about nothing.

31026180 09:47:33 xxxxxxxxxxx: probably, just feel weird about it. like homesick almost

31026180 09:47:50 xxxxxxxx: Everything is the same, there nothing ot be homesick about

31026180 09:48:15 xxxxxxxx: You good?

31026180 09:48:30 xxxxxxxxxxx: yea

This page contains a poll.

March 28, 2020

The poll's title read "{NULL}" and it contained this image alongside the following choices:

  • Song of Time
  • Song of Healing
  • Sonata of Awakening
  • Inverted Song of Time
  • Song of Double Time
  • Oath to Order
  • Other

After voting, the vote button would instead read "view consensus." Upon reloading the page, clicking the vote button would yield a "nice try" message above the choices. After the poll closed, this message became permanent. At the time the poll was discovered, the Song of Healing was in the lead. Player intervention led to the Sonata of Awakening winning the poll.

March 29, 2020

The poll's title was removed and it contained this image alongside the same choices. Despite the poll being closed, Other gained on the Sonata of Awakening and eventually surpassed it. The message above the choices now reads "....."

may 17 2014

41027150 10:43:31 xxxxxxxxxxx: o/

41027150 10:43:45 xxxxxxxx: Hey

41027150 10:44:10 xxxxx: I'm here.

41027150 10:44:45 xxxxxxxxxxx: this might be a stupid question, and not to go all maerlie on you, but have you guys noticed some weird things?

41027150 10:44:55 xxxxxxxx: Like?

41027150 10:45:12 xxxxxxxxxxx: just in general. like little idiosyncracies.

41027150 10:45:27 xxxxx: You're going to have to be more specific.

41027150 10:45:45 xxxxxxxxxxx: So I started summer courses early in CC and there's a kid in my class

41027150 10:45:53 xxxxxxxxxxx: Super quiet, sits in the back. Must be right out of high school

41027150 10:46:04 xxxxxxxx: OKay...

41027150 10:46:20 xxxxxxxxxxx:

41027150 10:46:35 xxxxxxxxxxx: Look at this, I snapped a picture of him:

41027150 10:46:35 xxxxxxxxxxx sent an attachment

41027150 10:46:43 xxxxx: Woah.

41027150 10:46:45 xxxxxxxx: DONT say his name.

41027150 10:46:50 xxxxxxxx: But yeah. That... looks like him.

41027150 10:47:04 xxxxx: Did... you-know-who... have a brother?

41027150 10:47:27 xxxxxxxxxxx: that's the fucked up thing about this whole thing. He was an only child, remember?

41027150 10:47:31 xxxxxxxx: That's really weird.

41027150 10:47:38 xxxxx: Life can be weird, it's most likely just a coincidence.

41027150 10:47:51 xxxxxxxx: Have you tried talking to him?

41027150 10:47:58 xxxxx: Do you think that's a good idea?

41027150 10:48:04 xxxxxxxxxxx: He doesn't seem to recognize me at all

41027150 10:48:12 xxxxxxxxxxx: but I'll see if I can catch up with him next week.

41027150 10:48:32 xxxxxxxx: Just be nonchalant about it though, OK?

51023160 20:26:10 xxxxx: weird name though.

51023160 20:26:21 xxxxxxxx: Yes, the whole thing is odd.

51023160 20:26:28 xxxxx: odd is underselling it.

51023160 20:26:37 xxxxxxxxxxx: Its because people misremember nelson mandella dying years before he did, I guess

51023160 20:26:41 xxxxx: how'd you come across this?

51023160 20:26:49 xxxxxxxxxxx: This means that there are other people that went with us.

51023160 20:26:54 xxxxxxxxxxx: I saw a post on reddit about it. w

51023160 20:26:54 xxxxxxxx: Maybe. It could mean a lot of things.

51023160 20:27:13 xxxxxxxxxxx: THEY remember the exact same things that we do, how can you say thats just a coincidence?

51023160 20:27:19 xxxxxxxx: I'm not saying anything. I'm saying it's worth looking into.

51023160 20:27:24 xxxxxxxxxxx: all this time

51023160 20:27:29 xxxxxxxxxxx: there were other people out there.

51023160 20:27:35 xxxxxxxx: Easy, we don't know that for sure.

51023160 20:27:42 xxxxxxxxxxx: It's been almost three years of keeping this all bottled up inside, how are you not more excited?

51023160 20:27:49 xxxxx: I'm no longer comfortable talking about this online, let's meet in person and discuss this further.

51023160 20:27:57 xxxxxxxx: Agreed.
