can you spoil the password, or give a small hint on how you got it? I have been trying, but havent succeeded to find it yet..

Never mind I got it, a good word password recovery tool helped me..

I like the background used on the document its the poem of the echoing green in mirrored..

Some interesting things in the properties of the document:

the subject of the document is 0 or XXI
the company for the document is British Museum - 'O'
Author is Howard Fair

Last modified however gives us a peek behind the curtain:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Paul Giffney - maybe the PM ??

some interesting trivia,

Jack Vance has a novel with a character called the watchman -

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

the eyes of the overworld

- which is the second part of the tales of the dying earth..

a fair coincidence, since the watchman tells us that the green is getting smaller

The password involves info gleaned from the email.

[posse]

Been trying to download the word file and the WMV file that got posted earlier ... is anyone else having problems with this? Either I missed something or the WMV file has a length of 1:55 but cuts out after 12 seconds, and there's a password on the word file that I don't seem to know and isn't covered in the recent posts...

Indeed, it does. I haven't tried to read it yet.

Here is his response from a brief thankyou I sent him.

Quote:

Ah yes, one seeks to answer the capital question. I know fully the reasons why - should you even attempt to send a golum to the green by the way, either of you, any of you - understand this. You will never have existed. It can be done. The Green is not a toy. Not something to be toyed with. But something that is getting smaller - something which we may, ironically need your help with. Something we, the council of humans of the Green are discussing with the elders as I type. Choose to help us and bridges can be made. Choose to leave well alone and life will continue as normal, and this will be just a game, a story written by a man a long time ago. But Jack in the Green understood - nay understands - well the adVances we could make together if the correct bridges are made. What say you - do not just reply with a brief answer - this email only welcomes those who have proved themselves of mind and spirit. Hence the older email having closed... The Watchman, knowing how older names have more power...

The email is different--I just realized this--howardfairisthegreenSPLATgmail.com

I will think on my response...

Food for thought: Jack Vance wrote Green Magic. Research it please. I got to take an exam soon.

The Watchman

[draghkar]

I sent the following mail, lets see what reply I get on it..

Quote:

Child of man, you did not hear my warning and now Howard has befallen the same fate as I. Dee also walked this path but listened to our warning. please tell me about the warning, and I might heed it on the green.. As I already have started thinking of green, I would like to posess the power of green, therefore, I need to speak to either of you... If you are not able, I will seek out Misthemar or Jaadian.. Allow me in and provide me with the knowledge that I am seeking.. If worse comes to worse, I will summon a golum and send him to the world of green... Enteresthes, Akmai Adonai Bidemgir! Elohim, pa rahulli! Enteresthes, HVOI! Draghkar the Green, also known as Draghkar the real, or simply Draghkar

I guess Gerald was talking about his conversation with QAlchemist here.

howardfairinthegreenSPLATgooglemail.com: Gerald here - I sense someone has been trying to get hold of me? me: you sensed correctly can you explain to me why Howard thought you were dead? howardfairinthegreenSPLATgooglemail.com: We are here but briefly - we spoke to someone who made us doubt whether you were worthy of the knowledge that both Howard and I possess... Howard is returning shortly - though you willl most likely not recognise him - his email will be restored when he sees fit. For now - be patient. Goodbye. me: hmm

Which sucks because I couldn't ask who they talked to in time. Hence, my hmm.

[JehosephatDostoevsky]

I've only ever seen Gerald online once, and that was about 5 minutes after he sent out the most recent parchment, not seem him online since. But worth a shot...

[Zobot257]

Thats it. I need to talk with Gerald. He uses google Talk, yes?

Ah, gotcha.
