 		Somehow the game seems to be a bit more intelligent than leetspeak to me and I can't recall having seen it anywhere else.

Daniel3 is an interesting thought, did somebody looked it up already?

 		Just looking, but not much there. Is a text on Nebuchadnezzar who makes an image of gold. Could be a clue somewhere, just don't know where.

Nebuchadnezzar the king made an image of gold, whose height was threescore cubits, and the breadth thereof six cubits: he set it up in the plain of Dura, in the province of Babylon.

 		He set up the golden monument in the plains of Dura, near Babylon, where Borges' librarty is located.

 		Wait a minute, I got this from http://www.theseason.org/daniel/daniel3.htm

Three score cubits is 60 cubits, the biblical number for satan. Then, with the combined breadth of 6 cubits we have the dual sixes (66). This is only a type, but it is set up by the king of Babylon. It is the king of Babylon in Revelation 13 that brings to pass what we will see.

The king made one (1) statue of three (3) score cubits with the combined (x2) breadth of six (6) cubits. Does that ring a bell: 1366. Just can't find the name of that statue.

if you take the letters + 12, you can read from O gcadzshs fsr vsffwbu : a somplete red herring. note that the s should be an c.

you read: all is not seems thcrc are clues everywhere
note that the c should be an e.

i still don't know what to do with that information, but it should mean something! haven't checked for further hidden characters!


And in the song title in the HR, the "x" should be a "d".....hmmm this is starting to add up to a translation table.....

 		Babylon and its whores
Hoi Pronage

A lot of interesting stuff came out of babylon. I lost the way after loads of reading but hey the tower of Babel connects with the pathway destinations.

Furthermore the statue you are seeking might be found here >> http://yahushua.net/babylon/liberty/ which is maybe farsought, but you never know.

Something different; the lay out of the crooked book on the right site is rather strange, it looks like some figure and as far as I know none of you debate this yet.

Cheers

ps the telly/dvd section does not have any clickable items ? or does it.

 		Tried the DVD section again to no avail. Can't seem to see any clear picture in the book. Too bad the headers are unreadable, and we can't see the title of the book.

just a tought about the c who needs to be e. as you might have noticed c=3 in this table. 3 is the holy number of the church which might refers to the bible. somewhere als in one of the books it says 'daniel5' which is a part in the bible. But daniel5 is written in it twice, referring back to the number of c's, meaning the 3 need to be 5 to be read properly.

An other question is why the a is outlined. might be because of the numbers needed for the message, but it could be an other clue.


Oke, this could be posted somewhere else allready. yesterday i've tried to read everything, but it's a lot, so i could have missed it.

maybe it's just coinsidence, but the number on the plain of trident air = 51366A

The 1366 is allready known... so the '5' and the 'A' remain... don't they have something to do with it?

(btw, sorry for my lack of english, it's not my native language..)

The "5" is probably an "S", then it's SA=Stella Artois

 		Another typo?
When you place a comment (contact) on www.tridentair.com you get a popup with the following text:

"Thankyou for youe comments"

If tried this at al the other pages, but on all the correct text appears:

"Thank you for your comments"

In light of al the other typo's and www.thisisnotatypo.com i think we sould take a closer look at this.

 		Hi, I'm new here, also my first ARG. I've been looking at your posts with great interest and I've been searching for clues for myself. Maybe you've already noticed, but the typo's in all the messages are strange.

first: the s = c , the c = e and the e = r

Then you've got CER that's the beginning of the word Cerberus, the gatekeeper of the greek underworld. I've tried to use it as password for both the HR and SS contract, no luck. But I thought it could be useful anyway.

So the obvious question is: Are there any typos corresponding to the 'b', 'r' and 'u'? Could the resulting string sce?ce?? be the password for either the mezzanine door or to view Jon's contract?

It's also midly interesting to note that c = e but e != c and s = c but c != s.

BTW: New here too, so hello all.

Cheers, Greg.

 		Substitution code.
Still wondering abou the substitution code.

s=c c=e e=r... interesting that so far it's transitive. I think it's coincidental, though. Otherwise, in some sense, s=r, right? Smile

Other less likely substitutions (these are a stretch):
x=d: From the unklesounds sounds for an eXit or eDit. Maybe coincidence.
ps=y: Privacy message for S&S has a greek part that translates to 'purgatorps' for 'purgatory'.

Unfortunately I can't access any of the sites from work (weird.. must be an alternative port or something, because I can get to other flash sites).

Anyway.. I'm wondering if the 'so nice to have. space' entry might somehow be telling us what to use for the space character.
could .=space? (could a period be the code for a space)?

This may all be worthless. Smile
