Monocle? Top hat? Sounds very steampunk.
Notice about the watch...and it needs to start soon.
Where have they gone? Do they know I can't read their Ancient Earth Warchive? I keep hearing circuses. I like circuses. Once, about 80 marsecs ago I played a tuba rather loud, and it never seemed to come out right. I like this place. You people are funny. I was once told I was funny. With my top hat and monocle. The circle never took found me serious. Or was that surpeti? Anyhow, I am still wondering about my monocle. It has a watch on it now, and my sub-routine claims that it needs to start soon. I am supposed to be remembering something. Can you help me?

Good sleuthing Rantalope.
Ties in with the "the Porch" and "Hekadem" (Hekademia):
EDIT: Which, if plugged into Google instantly brings up a location near Athens, Greece.
EDIT II: According to the all-knowing Wikipedia, Athens is one of the world's main centers of archaeological research. Maybe this is where we can find our Mr. Wallace Happenish? He did, after all, mention Oxford already. So we can place him in Europe fairly easily.
EDIT III: The location is:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Akadimia Platonos, or the area in which Plato's academy was built, though it now appears to be mostly housing. But this area has to be important somehow. The GPS position those six numbers correspond to is exactly the same as Google Maps' Wikipedia link to Akadimia Platonos.

Using an enigma machine simulator with the rotors set to I, II, and III with rotor start MCK and the rings set at AAA the message decodes as this:

Wallace goes by another name? But we confirmed the blog was IG right? 8 left? Should we work more quickly?
Also it's clear that stumans is not a typo. Are perhaps a race of people who can manipulate the timeline?

I get the sense this is a rotor setting for an Enigma machine.

Gah!
What am I missing? I've used both the Caesar cipher..and vigenere cipher. I have used everything I could think of as far as key codes .

I sent Allied Broadcasting a message on reddit asking if they could confirm that Wallace's blog was the right Wallace and there was a difference in time or space between them and him.
This is the answer:

time. time is nothing but a lie by the CEYTOs. they will claim that there was a place called in Earth. In a place called the present past. We discovered that their lie, was meant to keep us apart.

Gypsies. Aren't they fun. I once traded my mid arm reticulator for them to paint a rather delicate ear on my casing. They are also fan of rabbits...

That 4th Law doesn't really seem any relevant... or even reliable.
For those who are wondering, I skimmed it and it basicaly says "Time must be taken in account when analysing events under Aristotle's Three Laws of Logic"
Reading their blog, it would seem to me they call themselves (or at least their men.) "Keepers", and that there are only 11 of them left. (Call me Captain Obvious, but that actually had me thinking.)
Quote:
11. They found two of us last night transecting the neutocean. 11. There were days when we had thousands of Keepers.
I'm pretty sure that's not really relevant, but it makes me wonder what exactly do they "keep", or if the name means something else entirely different.
EDIT: Did anyone try to comment on their blog to ask what exactly they are trying to achieve sending those messages to our timeline?

Today's Allied Broadcasting post caught my eye when it mentioned the "4th Law". I turned up this about the 4th law of logic:
I'm not sure if this is related in any way as the material is a bit beyond me but seeing as it references "time structure" quite a bit it might be of some use.
EDIT: Hm. Probably not after further review. That article comes from the website of a crackpot, self-proclaimed PhD. But you never know.
