methodsofrevolution.com was a website found on March 28, 2020. It contained the remains of what appeared to be a blog and several hidden pages that contained images, sound files, and various miscellaneous items of interest. Initially, hidden pages were found only by changing the Attachment ID number of the page, however after May 30, 2020, ID numbers redirected to URLs featuring words, often the filename of the attachment. This allows players to search for new pages either by phrase or by Attachment ID.

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.

On August 30, 2020, at 5:43pm, methodsofrevolution.com briefly opened from its August 23rd lock screen to the same "riot.txt" look that it had displayed since May 30th. Eight minutes later, at 5:51pm, the site began redirecting to Eternity Project.

Pre-Awakening

Before the site was re-purposed, it sported a different design. The site was entirely white with black text and no header image or favicon. The bottom contained a directory titled, "Eric's Journal."

March 28, 2020 – Before and during discovery

The site had a header image that collapses when the user scrolled down. The sitename was at the bottom of the header. The title of the current page appeared on the left side of the page, while contents appeared on the right. A directory containing several links was located at the bottom of each page. Newly-discovered directory links will be in italics.

Pre-Awakening

Before the site was re-purposed, there were two posts on this page. In chronological order:

  • January 23, 2013: ...And Flint Struck Steel
    • For the last two years I have been drowning in a perpetual state of inaction, and (unsurprisingly) I have been suffering the consequences and the staggering pain of that apathy first hand. If I had to describe it… it’s not really a particularly violent pain, but rather it’s a quiet numb that creeps over you. It’s so slow that by the time you realize what it is doing to you, you’ve already grown accustomed and – even worse – indifferent to its presence. You find you’ve grown too content with the secure (albeit frequently monotonous) lifestyle that lays sprawled out before you to even summon the willpower to break free from its influence. This is a threat that we combat every day, and every day it finds new and exciting ways to afflict us. Yet, there is no sudden stop on this slow spiral downward. There is no rock bottom with this particular vice – there is no point where you hit the ground so hard that you bounce back and begin to look at the road to recovery. There is no discernible moment where you wake up one morning and realize that you’ve lost it all, and there certainly isn’t a life-changing epiphany that follows soon after to swoop in and save you.

      Well.

      Maybe it’s because you never really “lose it all” so to speak… at least nothing that’s really physically quantifiable, I guess. It’s more like an idea, a kind of spark, or even a dream. Things of that nature are usually hard to measure, and harder still to notice when they’re dying behind-the-scenes. What I do know is that what you end up losing by indulging in this vice is far more valuable than money, pride, or the latest in luxurious French amenities. And make no mistake, to call it anything less than a vice is one of the most dangerous things a person could do. True, it may not have the therapeutic effects of tobacco or the artificial relief that comes from alcohol, but it’s just as deadly and much more deceiving. No, the weapon of choice here is subterfuge; it specializes in double-edged swords like comfort, familiarity, and a sense of commonality to hinder and stagnate rather than to empower and evolve.

      Every day I am wracked with guilt and reminders of my own failings – it seldom takes more than a passing glance at my environment these days. My conscious keeps screaming at me to stop this self destructive behavior, to realize what I’m becoming and to fight it. But I don’t know how. I don’t know how. Admitting ignorance does little to bring me lasting relief – as if it would be so easy – and I can’t help but obsess relentlessly over the mystery. I know I am talented, why can’t I put my brush to the canvas? I know I can create, why can’t I put my pen to paper? I know I have a gift, why can’t I manifest it? I’ve stopped asking myself these kinds of questions lately; right now my mind is more focused on buying more time to be able to keep asking these questions for at least another year. I’ve got an entry level accounting job next summer that seems like the next logical step for me, yet I can’t help shake the distinct “I told you so” feeling that the path I’m walking today may have never really had my name on it to begin with.

      So I fight internally with this unconquerable, undefinable, debilitating adversary that seems to firmly anchor me to the ground. And the most stomach churning part of it all? Slowly, I can feel this burden get lighter and lighter the more time passes. My situation remains the same – my environment still stagnant – yet I find the weight on my shoulders is slowly decreasing over time, making it easier and easier to shrug them. And that realization is horrifying to me.

      At least Icarus fell reaching out for the sun.

  • March 6, 2014: The Second Step
    • Contrary to what we’ve been traditionally taught, success and failure are not two intrinsic concepts that are forever meant to be diametrically opposed to one another. Success begets success, and failure begets success. As long as there is progress, one will continue to teach and build off the other, and over time both feed into the health of your desired goal. The only proverbial anti pathogen to the well-being of your potential is inaction, and yet that single noun is the embodiment of dozens of causes that are crippling to the psyche in nature. Inaction, right down to its core, is the antithesis of creativity and progress. So let’s cut the bullshit and get down to the point here – how do we fight it?

      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. After enough repetition, you pick up on this pattern of structured living and it becomes integrated as a part of who you are and how you define yourself – which, to be fair, makes absolutely no fucking difference whatsoever when you’re in Kindergarten. Knowing that snack time comes right before nap time is not particularly the kind of character trait we’re shooting for here, but it is still adorable.

      But this adopted lifestyle does remain a constant throughout in our young lives, from Kindergarten to High School. You’re taught discipline, attentiveness, and being punctual out of necessity for being able to stay in school. As you get older your structure starts to incorporate new things – the sports you play, your hobbies, your pasttimes, and the relationships you have. With college you branch out even more, and while it’s true you could just do nothing and flunk out if you were deadset on it, the reality is you have plenty of resources in the way of advisers, councilors, fraternities/sororities, etc. to give you direction and help you stay the course. Ideally you are given a choice in what order you want to complete your required core classes, and then from there you’re shown the classes you have to take to get your desired major/minor. All other variables aside, the path is relatively straightforward.

      Though this academic process dumps us out in our early twenties, are we really taught structure? Sure, we’ve certainly picked it up through osmosis by now, we’re used to living alongside it, and most likely we’re used to taking it for granted; but do we really walk away with the knowledge of how to create structure from scratch, mold it as a tool to work for us independently?

      For some people, getting their ideal job and obtaining their own personal career goal in life has a direct path that has been more or less laid out for decades. If you want to be a doctor – go to medical school; if you want to be a dentist – go to dentistry school; if you want to be an engineer – accept that you probably won’t have time for a girlfriend for the next four years. And there’s nothing wrong with that, and no one is undermining the incredibly difficult work it takes to get degrees in those fields. For others who have equally ambitious but perhaps more muddled paths to their goal – such as careers in the fine arts, film, animation, and acting – they suddenly find themselves in confusing new territory. Most young adults – even people in general – are dependent on the academic (and later transitioning to the corporate) structure to show them the next step to take or as a barometer to measure their progress.

      Take away that structure, and it’s like you’ve yanked that carpet right out from underneath them. You might be surprised at how quickly a person can be at a complete loss as to what to do when the water wings suddenly come off. “Okay, welcome to the real world. You’re totally free. Now go do.“ For certain people there is no “I want to be a great jazz player” trade school to attend, so there is no clear-cut first step to take towards this goal. This road to success is littered with a lot of possible steps and a lot of maybes and more than its fair share of luck, so for many of you you will have to figure it out on your own.

      Where the pitfall lies is that you find yourself treading water with a new structure – which has gone from “I will attend college for four years, get a business degree, use the college’s resources to land myself at an entry level job and start paying back my student loans” to “oh god oh god oh shit oh fuck i’m on my own”. Confused and treading water, your structure is now completely foreign to what you’ve been used to all of your life, and you instinctively seek to reestablish that sense of familiarity. From this, habits and patterns are born out of necessity to try and create a sense of order and control in this unfamiliar, new world.

      Unfortunately, these habits – while providing “safe” comfort and security – are often detrimental to the growing process of learning to create your own life structure as a tool, instead of hanging onto one you ran back to and refusing to let go out of fear of going out into the unknown again. This route often will result in little to no forward momentum towards the original goal and will instead lead to losing motivation, being lethargic, either being overly dependent or developing codependency issues (i.e. parents, relatives, or a partner), substance abuse issues, feeling “stuck” in a dead-end job, or staying in an unfulfilling relationship.We find ourselves falling into structured patterns that are convenient and available instead of learning to create them. Whether it’s just pressing one day at a time at a job we hate, escaping your problems through entertainment or drugs, staying with a partner out of convenience, or just flat out foregoing all responsibilities and living gluttonously – the root cause is all the same. We stay in that spot for reasons and excuses that we use to justify the unsatisfying life we’re living. We settle and continue the cycle (sometimes without even realizing it). Never settle. Never let your ambitions be controlled by fear.

      It’s time for us to break out of that. So, instead of latching onto the nearest floating remains of your old structure and hanging on for dear life, I invite you to try and swim. Odds are you’re probably going to sink a few times, and a few times more after that, but what’s the big deal? The water’s metaphorical here, you’ll be fine. The point is to start trying, but often times the hardest part is knowing how to get started. You’re beginning the process of reinventing yourself and that’s exactly what the Second Step is for – this next part is almost a “how-to”, if you will.

After the redesign, the title to the left now read, "POSTS." There were two posts on this page. In chronological order:

      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.

Both previous posts and indexed pages had been removed from the website and have been replaced with "[Day 3]" which featured this H5P image which allowed players to click on "i" icons to get information on their options for three inventory items, to be selected based on a poll released the following day. The items were as follows:

  • Model Head
    A strange and macabre looking head modeled after a human with black eyeliner.
  • Radio
    Despite the two-way functionality disabled, someone who appears to know about your situation is using it to communicate directly with you. Whether this is someone you should trust or not remains a bigger question.
  • Flashlight
    A portable 2000 lumen LED flashlight with adjustable focus. While prone to flicker occasionally, the battery life seems indefinite.
  • Notepad and Pen
    If vocal noise seems to be what attracts the Jailer, this might be the most effective way to communicate with inhabitants you might find.
  • Knife
    You're not much of a fighter but this could be useful in cutting open materials, couches, mattresses, or even used for intimidation.
  • Rustic Song Book
    A book of songs from the World War II time period, musical memories from almost 80 years ago.
  • Holy Bible
    There are several passages that have been underlined and highlighted - their significance seems a mystery.

May 30, 2020

Under the header "Scanner" riot.mp3, a nineteen minute and thirteen second audio file of police scanner picking up information on a riot, was the first thing to be listed on the homepage. Underneath that was "[RIOT.TXT]", which was not in the original "blog" style and thus did not have an attached date and author. The description of the Methods of Revolution (Ben.wmv) premiere listed this as "Jadus' journal to update upon premiere" followed by a link to the methodsofrevolution.com homepage. It read as follows:

  • [RIOT.TXT]
    • To the disbelief of the entire world, the riots in Seattle had reached a precipice and the city began to devolve into full anarchy. There was no hiding it. No amount of spin could soften it. It turned out the revolution wouldn’t just be televised, it would be live-streamed through a million smart devices. Like a virus, these riots began to spread across the country at an alarming rate – more contagious than even the worst case of H.E.R.O.E.S. – and suspiciously well-coordinated. Everyone had their theories – some thought it was the tipping point of civil unrest, others thought they were foreign actors, some still even attributed them to a doomsday cult. They were organized agents of chaos and it became plainly obvious that whatever they were, they were effective.

      Soon after Baker turned out to be right, the supply chain was routed and the riots had reached Saint Louis.

      It was 1:10am and just like the night before I couldn’t sleep. It didn’t seem like anyone could – a deep heartache weighed on the chest of every American as we stayed glued to our screens, watching as city after city devolves into chaos. Unrecognizable chaos. It was haunting enough when the rioting was contained to a few states out west – we had had those before – but the rate that it spread shocked everyone. Everyone seemed to be so keen to cheer on a revolution until it came to their doorstep. It was a reality show from hell – before my eyes I was watching an on-demand dissolution of my own country being live-streamed to the world. A police scanner in the background was all that kept me company in my dimly lit room. There was something oddly soothing about hearing it bark at me, regardless of each new development, steadily rocking me to my core. When I was young my dad and I used to stay up late and listen along with a scanner while we pretended to be detectives, listening in for the next big crime to solve. It was a familiar comfort I had in a deeply foreign time.

      I stopped watching the news when it became abundantly clear during the riots that their objective wasn’t the preservation of our country, but rather it was in their best interests to prolong them – even incite them. It had become routine for them in the past few years to add theater to pieces to gain more traction, as the advent of readily accessible internet personality journalism made it hard for the main networks to compete.

      One of the most devastating things in American society was how dogged our media was in trying to convince both sides that America was a failing autocratic state. With no great enemy to fight we resorted to demonizing the other half of our own country. It started as a light flame but over time more and more kerosene was added by way of outrage mobs, terrorist attacks, misleading news, and sensationalism. It could be my naivety, but even after all this time I still don’t think the media networks had overly malicious intentions. I don’t think they had any idea how systematically destructive it would prove to be to our country. I just think they were thinking short term – looking for immediate gratification like everyone else. Outrage and negativity clearly tracked better and got more clicks than facts and logic. The more outrageous and theatrical, the more people would tune in. The cauldron was bubbling over and H.E.R.O.E.S. was one of the final ingredients added – the last thing this country needed was to stew in isolation for months on end, inundated with a constant barrage of inflammatory propaganda meant to fracture families. America may have turned most of its back on God, but Religion itself never left – we replaced spirituality with rampant consumerism as an outlet for our fervor. Our deity became the brands that provided this gratification and now we had reached the flames of the altar. These factors all combined together to raise a weak generation of aimless men and women. If I was going to survive, I would have to rise above this

      It’s hard to believe someone like me would take this kind of position, but it became clearer after the coffee shop meeting and the rapidly changing world around us. Baker’s words stayed with me and I began to second guess everything, maybe for the first time ever.

      It could have been anything that finally set us off, but for us, it was a shooting that ultimately sent us careening overboard. People were looking for anything to justify their anger.

      After the shooting, I saw leaders attempt to rise to quell their communities. They were heroes, without question, and their speeches were some of the most empowering I had ever heard. They spoke with a burning passion for their communities, for justice, for peace. But the division that had been sewn in this country for decades had reached critical mass and I couldn’t help but feel these powerful words fall onto deaf ears.

      How many times have we found ourselves in this position of in-fighting? How many times has this exact same scenario played out? It was the same old story in America it seemed and we couldn’t help but continue to be stuck in this loop. Same problem, new decade. Was this just an inevitability? Or was this the final one? Historically it has been speculated that the level of social unrest emulates the Gini index of wealth inequality, and since H.E.R.O.E.S. this disparity had increased tenfold. But it seemed like it was obvious who the real culprits were – you’d think that in this digital age of information it should have been easy for the average person to see. The billionaires they hated so much had made an immense profit off of the nation while millions were left unemployed and the wealth divide had never been greater. But there-in lies the problem – it requires much more planning to face an existential threat like that. It’s much easier and immediate to attack your neighbor as long as you can be convinced that he has some slight culpability to your suffering.

      Is it just an immutable fact that it’s impossible to organize the many against the few? At this point it was a waste of effort to dwell on these questions because the time for playing political whack-a-mole to assign blame had long since passed. Cities were burning and Maslow decreed that I shift focus to my immediate preservation. There will be a time to fight back, but now is the time for survival. As chaos filtered throughout the country, it became abundantly transparent that we could not rely on the government to protect it’s citizens anymore.

      Fortunately, there was still time. Time to pick up the last few things I needed and meet Baker outside the city.

      There were other people I tried to reach as Baker reached me, but I proved to be much less persuasive. People were skeptical – to the point of complete resistance – to even the notion of entertaining that kind of radical change was possible. Reality was just above the surface, beckoning to those entrenched in the belief that the status quo could be reestablished. There’s no way our life will ever change – the Roman farmer says.

      I was no hero and I couldn’t blame them – there were so many ways I felt completely overwhelmed and ill-equipped at the prospect of surviving on my own. But the alternative was to wait and relinquish any agency I had left to chance. If I approached it one day at a time it became much more manageable. The tools that I used to complain about invading my privacy could be wielded to help me escape. I had given up arguing about politics online and scrubbed my old accounts as best as I could to make myself appear as vanilla as possible. Wear a mask, don’t wear a mask – in the end it was an irrelevant debate and not worth the loss of friends and family over. Likewise, I wasn’t sure who I’d run into and I wanted to be as agreeable and unremarkable as possible to anyone I’d encounter – I didn’t need to invent extra reasons for people to be wary of me.

      I would follow the rest of Baker’s tenets as well. I would make a point to avoid gatherings and protests – just as much as there is strength in numbers there is also incredible vulnerability. A 100-strong protest will not be sizably strengthened by the addition of just one more member, yet my own personal risk goes up exponentially if I join up with a mob. I was no hero, and certainly had no desire to be a martyr – I would have to make a point to not stand out unless absolutely necessary. I would make more of an effort to pursue physical strength – in retrospect I still contend that the greatest trick on the modern man was making him assume that being strong and intellectual were mutually exclusive qualities and that one would negate the other.

      The remaining social media account I had – Snapchat – was used as a bootleg news aggregate. One of the app’s standout features was the geo-locating service called SnapMap – it allowed participants to see a heat map of the immediate area of users uploading content in real-time. The stronger the heat signature, the more active the users. And too many of them could not help but broadcast every waking moment – rioting included – through portrait mode. I could see where they were and what the group was doing right down to the street corners. Even if I did trust the news media at this point, I was still at least ten to fifteen minutes ahead of any attempt at breaking news they could muster about how the riots were evolving. I made a point to load as many podcasts, books on tape, and offline media onto my smartphone because once I had reunited with Baker, I would disable the phone’s network functionality and switch over to my prepaid clamshell from here on out. The prospect of phantom pain from losing my phone seemed to already unnerve me, but I managed without it before and I can learn to do it again.

      Once the riots started to increase in intensity around the country Baker once again reached out to me – this time via encrypted email. One last desperate attempt to get me to see reason, I suppose. He swore to me that there would be a massive false flag attack on our country if the damage got to be too great – something to unite us against a common enemy in our eleventh hour. It wouldn’t be the real enemy that got us into this mess, he claimed, but it would be “enough” of an enemy to get us to stop fighting each other at least. It sounded absolutely insane to me, but his statements reverberated through the fog around me, I had to once again pause and look at reality. The world had already changed so much and I already was such a far cry from my persona a year ago – an aimless man sitting in a coffee shop preoccupied with pointless suburban gossip – that I was through second guessing him at this point.

      But we as humans are nothing if not adaptable.

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>

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

61028050

This page contained the following text (on April 11, 2020 the bolded section was added):

  • 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.

    I will show you Jadusable’s final moments before he died. The one video you never saw.

    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.

august 16 2013

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 contained 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 "....."

April 4, 2020

The poll remained untitled and the face stayed the same as before, but upon its discovery at 7:53pm, it contained three new choices:

  • HIDE
  • FIGHT
  • RUN

Shortly after voting began, at 7:56, the image changed to this and the votes were re-titled:

  • DIE
  • DIE
  • DIE

Within a minute, the new title "Don't be hasty now." appeared, the image changed once again to this and choices were re-titled once again, in a different order:

  • RUN
  • HIDE
  • FIGHT

At 8:47, after a heated debate over the poll choices, HIDE won the poll.

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 20:25:07 xxxxxxxx: What the fuck does this mean?

51023160 20:25:35 xxxxx: Mind fuck.

51023160 20:25:39 xxxxxxxx: This is... unexpected.

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.

09152000

This page contained a link to this document, a revised version of TheTruth.rtf called "TheRealTruth.rtf." It adds all of Jadusable's video summaries to the main text, changes most mentions of "Ben" to "BEN," and includes a new entry at 9:09pm on September 10:

TheRealTruth.rtf: September 10, 9:09pm

After crying and whining for some time now he finally came to our senses.

He was being pathetic and greedy.

Weak and embarassing.

Vulnerable and alone.

No more.

He thinks it's in the afternoon now, but his brain can't tell anymore.

It is irrelevant.

We are one with a singular purpose, and we will finish it.

These messages are not meant for them to read right now.

None of it will make sense to either this desparate puppet or his "audience" at present.

Conclusion: it is a wasted effort.

Regrettably, in order to achieve fulfillment and ascend higher we will need to wait for some time.

We will continue to form our own consensus.

But there's been too much of a commotion here, that blithering idiot could set us back if we are discovered.

Then patience is the answer, time is inconsequential here.

He attempting to interface with our world again.

Moon and the sun.

Show ourselves to him. Show that we are many, and we are watching.

Is it time? That has a high probability of completely fracturing his already weakened mind.

Yes.

Yes, this one will die soon.

Yes, this world is beginning to fall apart as well.

Yes, but on that matter it is a debate - our ability to interact with their plane is limited to only a few Methods.

Yes, but it will not be that way forever.

Yes, but the probability that we become incompatible is too great if we wait too long.

Yes, we have a proposal to change that. it will take years but that is acceptable.

Yes, that is fine.

<deleted>

Yes, but they should know the truth at some point.

Yes, but only when it is too late.

Lock Screens

In the event that methodsofrevolution.com was locked, preventing users from any other pages, these were the elements displayed:

March 28, 2020

The site then opened at 11:12 before being closed again at 11:26 to a completely black lock screen.

April 4, 2020

  • At 8:47pm the website was closed. The lock screen image being results.png, confirming that the HIDE option won the poll. At 8:50, it changed to results2.png, and then to results3.png several seconds later.
  • At 8:53, the front page went black. Several messages were displayed in succession for the next several minutes:
    • At 8:53, the page read, "Hiding."
    • At 8:56, the page read, "10:43am - The Moon Children appeared in my dreams last night, they lifted up their masks to reveal their hideously disfigured faces."
    • At 8:57, the page read, "10:43am - The Moon Children appeared in my dreams last night, they lifted up their masks to reveal their hideously disfigured faces. ...maggots crawling out of their orifices, sunken black holes where their eyes should be, a yellow smile that slowly grew bigger as they came closer to me."
    • At 8:58, the page read, "10:43am - The Moon Children appeared in my dreams last night, they lifted up their masks to reveal their hideously disfigured faces. ...maggots crawling out of their orifices, sunken black holes where their eyes should be, a yellow smile that slowly grew bigger as they came closer to me. Two of them held me down while the other two began to sow the mask onto my face."
    • At 9:04, the page read, "THEY."
    • At 9:05, the page read, "TOOK." Shortly afterward, kel.jpeg was added as a background image.
    • At 9:06, the text disappeared and the image remained.

  • At 5:11, the lock screen changed. It was now completely black and contained text that picks up from immediately after the end of the video. It reads:
    • He was all over the place, but I followed. I followed all of it. A lot had happened in the past year - in retrospect it was morbid how we just meandered from one once-in-a-generation scandal to the next in a lazy, indifferent haze. We were so caught up in making it to work on time, paying our bills, and buying the next big ticket item that those events barely registered for more than a week or two before we forgot all about it. But now half the country was unemployed, bills were frozen, and people prioritized essential food/supplies. This was probably the first time many of us really got the chance to stop and really think about the weight of these things and what kind of world we were living in. There really was a billionaire pedophile that ran uncontested for decades in our most elite circles, and we still hadn’t found his accomplices. We really were headed towards another Great Depression, and society as we knew it was beginning to crumble. And we really did spend way too much time at the office, and for what? Things were too fast paced to focus before, but now that we had nothing but time we realized that this was real. This was actually happening in our world. There’s a psychological barrier that many people have that refuse to allow them to accept terrible things happening in the world. It’s only when things become so in your face and undeniable that the barrier shatters - in many cases it was the lockdown that shattered it for many people. Now there were no bills to pay and we had no choice but to dwell on the truth. This was the first time that myself and many others were able to stop and realize the reality that we lived in. It was a shame that the riots were beginning to start this early, we might have had time to really organize a revolution. The riots in Seattle were emblematic of that, I’m sure. But now with the supply chain being disrupted in the Bible Belt, more would start, but for the wrong reasons. We were interrupted by the owner - the shop was closing soon, which meant we had only a few minutes to get back home before curfew. I stayed behind to use the restroom while Baker made his way to the exit. He paused in half-step out the door and turned to me, staring directly at me. “I am telling you, whatever they end up proposing. Don’t get it put in you.“ “No matter what they say, or what they tell you it’s for. “ “Don’t get it.” These specific memories fluttered back to me for some reason in a dreamlike fashion, I could recall them all vividly. Rather, it was the last poignant thing as I woke up on a cold tile floor on the 23rd of April.
  • At 5:18, the following line was removed: "“I am telling you, whatever they end up proposing. Don’t get it put in you.“"
