4 day-old Gangatweet:

So, yeah, it looks like we have the right place. But "be very observant" is the kicker. Take pictures of EVERYTHING! Maybe even video! LOL.
Also, this:

Snateraar noticed something that is quite common to the clues: Certain words are capitalized.
Count
Slating
Concrete
Likely you'll have to count something, and it'll have to do with concrete.
A quick Google search for slating returns http://www.thefreedictionary.com/slating so maybe you're looking for roofing tiles?
I just checked the google map for the place again and I don't see anything that looks like it would have a roof! It looks like some sort of outdoor structure, maybe a monument or something. (This guy does seem to love monuments after all!) Here's some street views:

Also, with how precise the X,Y point is on the map, even without Gangadiddle's confirmation, that's got to be it. If it was wrong, it'd probably be pointing to a lake or the woods or something.

So Paladin, you are a real soldier for doing all this driving! Between you and hunter1, this is going much faster than it would have!
Also, I tried to post here at RobloxHQ the other day and I was getting a "do not have permission" error. WTF? So I xposted it over at TDRL and now here (I hope!).

Not really off topic, as they're running parallel with RHQ.

Yeah...about that... I dont really have the cash, nor the time to make another trip at the moment, so the trip will have to be mothballed for a bit. And well, paypaling me cash for gas probably wouldnt work either.

I feel your pain! I went from not having a car back home to having one but not having the cheddar to keep it gassed up! Once business picks up, I hope it will be a different story.
Maybe some other intrepid hunter could make the trip. Maybe someone who lives near there?

Yeah, I would totally help you out if I had money or a Paypal account. We need more Virginians.
And I thought people lived in Virginia . . .

WOah I haven't posted in a long time, not that I was helping ahaha.
Anyway, new gangatweet if you haven't already got it;
"warning: they approach" - 2 hours I posted this
Looks like you'll want to look out for "They" next time you head out, Paladin/hunter1.

There's a new video on the gangadiddle channel. Apparently there is some new competition. I don't think they are about to destroy the world with arcane words this time, but they are trying to find the Gangadiddle before us, which could obviously be bad.
The video says S 3 3 k 3 r S, which presumably means "seekers." Whether this is a reference to the hunters or a name for this new threat (or something else entirely) is not clear.

what the fuck is this i dont even. so is the point to uncover the truth or something or

It's an ARG, and it has been going on for some time. If you are interested in understanding it, you can read through the thread. Actually, there is a wiki at gangadiddle.wikidot.com that was used for a few weeks. It hasn't been updated in months, but it could help get you started.
The rabbit hole was a Youtube channel called poocheeandpansy. The sixth video contained the word "Gangadiddle" very briefly which led people to find the Youtube channel called "gangadiddle" and the Michael Filters Gabriel blog. From there, we have solved a series of puzzles. The goal apparently is to find the Gangadiddle, but we don't know who or what the "Gangadiddle" is. Apparently it can travel between worlds and possess people, not only individually, but in fact as an entire species. Our domain is not safe, as Gangadiddle has come to own it.
We first heard from Nathan Israel here: http://x.datchan.org/sanctuary/x/arch/r … sreal.html a long time ago, but nobody knew its significance then.
That /x/ page is very informative for backstory, by the way. Apparently that Mr. Israel was corrupted and is trying to corrupt others, like a virus. However, another Israel (specifically Nathan Israel) was resisting and sending cryptic messages. The possessed Israel simply needed time to find the coordinates to come to our world. I guess when he did (which took a year), Nathan somehow came with him. However, he is still bound, so he can only send messages with extreme difficulty. There is a lot more to the story by the way, but you can find that at the wiki and on the threads and such.
Or something like that.

Uh...Houston, we have a problem. Obviously means we gotta step it up. Also leaves questions for us:
Are they hostile?
How would they know I/hunter1 are there?
Would I have to kick one in the head with my boots?
I'm currently working on my financial problem, but its gonna be at least mid june till I can go. If someone can paypal me or something for gas money, it'd definitly help speed it up. Either way, we got the Seekers, and this just got much, much, harder. Keep your eyes open.

Uhm, You guys ever tried street view?
its not the best choice, as its outdated and you can only look on main streets
but google street view might help

The Gangadiddle lands in the ''real'' world in March. Your isolation ends when you join the hunt.
Marble Hunters might be a red herring.
You cannot hide BITCH!
what the heck is this?

JUST FOUND SOMETHING!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fdowAzScqk
I Googled for s33k3rs and got an overwhelming plethora of results, most of them likely unrelated. Then, on a hunch, I searched for s33k3rs youtube and I might have missed it if I hadn't noticed the "We approach" title. I felt the first brix in my bowels at that, but upon clicking, there was no doubt this is related.
I'd call "troll", but the picture is the same in the beginning of both this video and Gangatamer's latest. Interestingly enough, the video dimensions seem to be slightly different, though s33k3rs seems to communicate in the same way as Nathan, that is, through bizarre youtube videos.
So either this is just another part of the game, or we're one of two sides being played against the middle! This is starting to get interesting again!

Holy shit that is the face from the /x/ thread. I KNEW THAT GUY WAS INVOLVED. He was suppressed by Nathan Israel, but not permanently.
His name is also Israel.

Looks legit, and more proof to a deadline. Something's gotta give, and fast. I'm going on a trip east on the 10th, and returning on the 21st, so my trip there would probably be on the 28th. That on the other hand, is depending on if I got the green light on funding and work.

That video ear raped me. I should have expected it.
I'm reminded of the "Multiple Israels, some good, some bad" statement.

Tbh, I dont remember that statement.

Maybe we should advertise this on /x/. Explain that we need somebody near those coordinates to go there ASAP. It would only take a few hours if you lived relatively close. It would be tough to get them up to speed on the whole thing, though.

Excuse me? Sure these people are inactive, but hey, it's a ARG. Also, It's only taking up a little bit of space considering it has stayed in one topic.

Ahh, yes, the statement dolst made in the "I'm back" video. I also remember dolst saying "There is one Nathan Israel for every Universe". So the one in our Universe (The good guy who has been giving us clues) and the corrupt Nathan Israel (The one we heard about it in the /x/ thread) possibly has something to do with s33k3rS. Well, I am guessing the corrupt one has something to do with s33k3rS. However, the good Nathan Israel is warning us about the s33k3rS.
