Doesn't look familiar to me... But I could be wrong.

Go ahead and trout me if this is already known. But at itallstarted there is more code at the bottom of the source that looks a lot like the code on the cards you guys got in the mail.

Well, I emailed Dan about my letter being tampered with as well. I have a different RF # too. Not sure what's going on, but I think I need to be able to read something off that sheet using that #.

Welcome, phantom321! \(^_^)_ Hope you enjoy the Failtech frenzies!
As for punxtr's package, I'm quite curious about what he received as well. I wonder if it has the same contents as the one posse is getting, or if there are slight differences, like with codes or other things.
EDIT: Here's what I received today! Feel free to try your hand at the code on the ID, too.
This is the yellow text from the Dan Miller letter:
Quote:
If you can clearly see this block of text in YELLOW color and the body of the message in BLUE, it means the envelope has been tampered with. Contact the sender immediately regarding this security breach. This text will only appear after 48 hours of exposure to contaminated air, while the black-to-blue security ink will switch from black to blue color upon release of signing agent when the envelope is opened.
Unfortunately, this file is no longer in our archives.

There is yellow text at the bottom of the letter that didn't scan well. See EDIT in post for text.

Description
Both the number and symbol in the top right corner are actually written on a label, which I suspect is the reader for the ARC data due to the circuitry, but I haven't looked into it yet.

Just sounded like you were having a conversation... you said, "the same OOG mail package" so it seemed for me like it was meant as a PM for someone. hahaha
anyhow, what's in the package?

Glad to see old faces. The message was indeed to be OOG, but on this forum. I just want to be transparent about it.

glad to have you back punxtr! I'm also trying to slowly crawl back into the game... but for a moment there, I had to ask if the post you just posted was intended for the forum or as a PM...

For the record, I received the same OOG mail package as well. I've been slowly cracking each code on it to determine if it has any strong help or relevance for season two. I hope it does. Also, it's good to be back

Thanks for the summary, zeighy, it did help quite a bit, and thanks for the emails aswell.

I've sent phantom321 a PM as a quick recap of what's going on... and what went on in the past...
also to contact the characters you will have to shoot them emails... I haven't done that, but most of the other players have... emails as follows:
LAINSY (the FAILTECH super computer super AI)
lainsy@failtechnologies.com
commandSPLATlainsy.net
Genus Orein -- genusoreinSPLATgmail.com
Daniel Miller -- dan.millerSPLATfailtechnologies.com
Inno Ellis (supposedly has to give us a mission but went to another dimension in the Rifter accident) inno.ellisSPLATfailtechnologies.com
Joseph Dillinger -- joe.dillingerSPLATfailtechnologies.com
Matthew Johnson -- matt.johnSPLATfailtechnologies.com
Pablo Jose -- pablo.joseSPLATfailtechnologies.com
Patrice (Netspec, former FAILTECH, and help us on occasion) netspecSPLATtechnologist.com
Skyfall (Oriru Serku, but not available at the moment) skyfallSPLATinsurer.com
Might have missed someone, but these are probably the major ones...
Also, I have no clue if we have collected any six digit code recently... Maybe Matthew would be willing to share? He's the most open of them, right?
EDIT: Updated lainsy's email, Thanks Lystella!

I've been reading quite a bit that we're getting in touch with some of the characters, may I ask how?

I'm about to board a plane so I'll be quick!
This is a Nox Ordo number, texting just returns a MSG to call it, a call gets a recorded message from Nox Ordo systems asking for a 6 digit verification number. If anyone knows this number let me know I can try it out later!

Welcome phantom321! Sorry to say that there is no such guide. the Wiki is what we have. This game has been hectic at times, slow moving at others. Posse and Zeighy have had to bow out the least (have been the most continuously active) throughout this game, so one of them would probably be the best to ask for more details on something.
Also, in follow-up to my previous post:
LAINSY finished her attempted analysis on the site. She said she couldn't even get in the front door to analyze their server. She said that it kept returning "2508002669". I asked her to see if she could find a purpose for the number.
One thing that I first brushed off but am now thinking might be a lead is the fact that both my phone and Gmail want to hyperlink that as a phone number. I first thought it was just because they do that for any number string the right length (which they do), but I just noticed that it does look like it could be a very real 800 number. The area code is for British Columbia, Canada. Does anyone in that region want to chance a call or text?

Well this ARG seems very interesting, and I've read all of the timeline on the wiki, but I'm still a bit lost here. Has anyone made a guide or anything else?
Also hello everyone!
