Question from Phase 6 puzzle - for further instructions

http://www.thematrixisreal.com/emailme.htm

I just IMed O.V., and got a link to that as a response. For the oh-so exciting log...

ZeroXSilver12: Hello
OhVerisimilitude: Message Po5ted((Link: http://www.thematrixisreal.com/emailme.htm)link).

Tried several other things, but that's all O.V. responded with. Oh, and for now, it's an AIM bot. Responds too quickly to be anything else.

EDIT: Possible solve from my promt "is the matrix real?" on the quote page.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

A wealthy man = God. Five sons = five continents.


2nd EDIT: Check the page again. Seems I've figure out our two questions that O.V. wants us to find out - Who is the god and who are the continents, as well as what is the truth that has become the lie? Any hints for the answer to those two questions yet that I've missed?

Not so sure about that, the God, five continents thing is just something someone has IM'd him with while he is not there and so it ended up on the quote page. If you notice there are also a couple of other solutions there, for some reason a lot about love, that people have messaged him with.
Apart from anything else I don't think the continent thing holds up since the puzzle states a lack of waterways dividing the land (I think, I'm not looking at it right now so I could be wrong).
Correct me if I'm wrong about this or I've missed something by the way.

towards the end of the loop on forestentrance.htm there is a series of techno like drums and cymbals.... to me it sounds like it could be morse code, but it was going to fast for me to try and correctly get it typed out.

morse code

Could be something could be nothing but...
I have a free audio editing program (Audacity) and I zoomed in on the back end of the sound file from the forestentrance flash page. It has a series of beats and snares. I made an assumption that the beat would be a dot and a snare would be a dash...could be the other way around. I slowed it down to 11025Hz and looked at the sound spectrum to see the beat/snare spikes. I have not really looked at morse code before but this is what I saw/heard....

.- / ..- / .- / ..- / .....- / ..- / ..-- / ...- / ..-- / ..-- / ----. / .. / .. / .. / ..- / .-....-.-

the slashes are where I "think" a space might go (I have no ear for music at all) but translated it looks like crap....

A / U / A / U / 5? / A / nothin / V / nothin / nothin / 9 / I / I / I / U / nothin

so who the heck knows....maybe the song is from a computer game or from something random....

When trying to get the sound file from the flash, I found this picture.

If you look closesly at that flash animation, when the colors are changing, the transparent layer that moves over the image is actually that image of clouds Smile

Has anyone else noticed that part of the "Wait, loading" animation on forestentrance.html acts like a Rube Goldberg machine?

When you get to this chapter you find this flash.

Also, we're no longer in phase 6.

In a recent convo with OV:

Quote:
MayorAdamWest87 (2:06:20 PM): Do you know Morse Code?
OhVerisimilitude (2:06:27 PM): Yes.

Someone want to look into this? possibly find out what that really means?
