I have just watched the Avengers the second time. How about the Avengers Cake? :D :D

Well, he updated with the Don Quixote burger. Again, I don't know what to make of this-- no obviously recurring terms; on the other hand, today's an appropriate day to make the post, considering that today/last night is when we found Quixote's armour.

He says he's making the soup (from the Phantom post) on Tuesday-- I guess we should keep our eyes open for Phantom (or Christine)-related activity on Tuesday, then.

I'm going to request an Arthurian legend -related food, and see how he takes it. Maybe we can get confirmation of Morgana.

You know what... I've decided to fight fire with fire. I'll try asking Cheshire about the cakes.

He responded to my Arthurian comment with interest-- figures that he'd mention Gawain and the Green Knight (green = limes), but... still. He says he'll try it in "a week or two"-- Halloween, anyone? I'm sure there's something going on here.

Yeah, I've noticed the "two weeks" part, but I didn't realize the Halloween connection. Maybe date is what's consistent in his posts? If we do get some activity from Phantom next week, that should become our working theory.

WMG: He is foreshadowing... The comic is foreshadowing... Maybe we should show him the comic somehow, but I have no idea how to start such a conversation. :|

Ask for recipes inspired on the scenes from the linked images?

Of course we can do that, but if I were a real cook, by that time I'd start asking "OK, what's up with you people?" :?

Which means we can use this to determine whether he's a real cook.

Is he working on Quixote/R&J stuff? If so you could go: "Here's some inspiratonal material for the recipes of Quixote we requested earlier! ^^"

He already gave us the Quixote recipe. And didn't seem so interested in doing an R&J one (he called it "too easy" and described the cake in a comment).

"Well... You said R&J was too easy... You know, the lovebirds, overly sweet and all that... But what about this adaptation? *link* Does it spark another take on the R&J recipe?"

I wanted to suggest showing him on of the shards, but I don't think there is enough information to build a coherent story, let alone a dish. :?

He's taking this all in stride, which is really interesting. If he's not a part of it (slim chance at this point, what with the dream of Mr. A and all) then he would probably be a bit more suspicious of the fact that he now has followers. Anyway, I agree with those who think he's foreshadowing events with food somehow. Maybe the Foreshadowing machine is stuck in his subconscious?

He has to be related in some way. The ezblog domain was made for the ARG.

Personally, I think it was kind of like a practice blog. So they could get used to writing them. It's probably not but it's definitely not a real blog.

It was posted on April 1st. Either its a joke or the most crucial and important thing to the ARG, ever.

What about Ben's Manga? These are the only 2 ezblog.co sites that don't fit, excluding efp, which does, weirdly.

Yeah, Ben's Manga still drives me crazy. While the CF blog really seems to be a test one (the date is out of the timeline, too), Ben's Manga seems to have some purpose - at least, it wants to look this way. AND it's tangentially related to Echo Chamber. AND it's been there since May. AND its alledged owner never wrote me back when I asked him whether or not it was his blog.
That blog makes no sense. :evil:

Very well.
Both of these have a single user registered: localadmin. Pretty default name for when you set up a server and start trying out the tools just to be sure you can handle the tasks.
Meta reasoning sugests that these localadmin@ezblog.co where testing grounds for the ARG, and left there to be Red Herrings in case someone swept the domain names (Dryu and I both did it).

The cake guy? Username Rick and the blog is active. These localadmins? Meh... No activity from them whatsoever.
Therefore, Rick and efp are related, if only to foreshadow or to play a bigger role I don't know, the others, I don't have reason to believe they deserve attention. Besides, I've already scanned each pixel in that damn manga blog when I found out about the IP address (the IP address is a dead end).

Is Rick one of the youtube guys at all? Does he have a youtube? Maybe we should ask him. Or a twitter.

Don't think so. If he has, it surely is not @Rick so it can be hard to find.
