Hi all, long time no see. I'll be following this I think.

So Nick is the one who places the messages?
I think I will try to contact him about the blog.
As for the new message, do we have any sites to execute anything?

So there's a main page update. Where's Barry Li gone?
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
In the white space xD Just highlight the text and you'll see that you will highlight some hidden letters which when put together make Barry Li. Why go to the trouble of hiding the name? There's also a hidden message that says read the dots which I assume is reference to how you can find Barry Li's name.

The Barry Li thing has been their from the start AFAIK...

You misunderstand me. Barry Li has always been there but he hasn't always been hidden like that has he? No one's mentioned that anyways. I have been lurking. Also, I do know about the anagram.

The hidden Barry Li is mentioned on the first page
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Read the dots" could refer to the morse code found in the library page (and has been solved) or to the notes on the mozart page.

Ah, I didn't realize that it was actually hidden. I realized his name was signed previously but thought this was new with the site update.

It probably has no meaning but Liam Top is an anagram for

I checked there is no link leading to that, so again this probably is not of importance
But is someone could look at the command line stuff would be cool.
As a game design student I can see that LunarLabs has a really cool game idea. (Might even say that we are unintentionally beta testers of some sort)

Tho it may appear elsewhere I saw http://www.lunarlabs.org/cabbage/ with a knock knock while looking for coding errors in the "Mozart" source code.
MEGA HELLO and welcome back to Thunderwolf who being bril will determine that "line 33" puzzle. Obviously, the "Cabbage" source code is a must-do. Cyas...
Message hidden in the Cabbage source code
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Evidence #1154CH
[From]: Nick Bristol
[To]: Maria Liebkind

[Body]
Maria,
WE did it! I finalized the code, our only chance to stop everything. This will probably be be my last message , they are close. I am sorry that I was so careless you have to finish it. I hope I can see xou soon, if not know that I love you.
Nick
ETA: Maria tweeted that she "Never did learn to read music though" so have tried the Mozart notes (CGAFEGF) for the knock knock with zero success.

I tweeted that I never could read notes. She tweeted that she could read them all perfectly and she was off to a piano lesson.
Did you notice the ascii-art in the cabbage file?
EDIT: I also notice that the link on the cabbage site takes us to https://spideroak.com/browse/share/core1/ c33
line 33?

just to do a little analysis on that, "Liebkind" translates to "lovechild". Common enough, surname, but from the cabbage source it would appear that Nick and Maria have a bit of a thing going on. and the ascii art shows two parents with a child... is this a missing person case?
EDIT: I don't think that's JUST ascii art:

If you strip out all non-alphabetic characters, there is a hidden message: "JAMBKAYO". I tried it as the password but no luck
