 		what now
EDIT - I made an error when writing this and my reference to weephun ended up in front of the wrong paragraph. I am sorry and I have corrected it.

EDIT2 - Also, bill move this wherever it belongs. I didn't sneak in I am just slow Very Happy.

weephun: I think Sin is right and people should choose where they want to play. Sometimes that may be determined by the game itself. IU allows characters to post to the boards and interact in ways that are not allowed by the TOS here. Sometimes it may be a matter of personal choice, I can't manage to keep up with two boards so I look at IU very rarely.

As evident, this topic seems to generate unwarranted and unnecessary postings. You know that I support people posting their own views and that it is illusory to pretend, and foolish to even want, that everyone will have the same points of view.

But, in my opinion, making defamatory accusations about jonathan (or anyone else as far as I am concerned), especially when he is not around, is just not acceptable or justifiable. That is way outside the bounds of fairness to fellow players.

And not to mention way off topic as well....

so back to thebruce:
a question, why are we going for the sound alikes with these words? did something specifically point you in this direction?

?????
Sin is right???
??????
IU??? .... ah, figured this one out = ImmersionUnlimited
???????
unwarranted and unnecessary postings???
????????
jonathan???
?????????
accusations??? (from me, wha???)
??????????
HUH ???..........???

Did somebody do some editing / removal of a previous post/rant/argument, is this an argument happening elsewhere, or am I missing something obvious?????

As far as I could tell, there is also a thread relating to this puzzle over at immersionunlimited.com In fact, that is where most (if not all) of the solves so far have come from (props to them). But I didn't know that any one site or forum had "rights" to an ARG or the discussion thereof. Is it not possible to work concurrently, or separately, or some combination of both? If not, then I apologize for any bad feelings and/or arguments I've brought up. Well, even if it is possible, I still don't like bringing about bad feelings (yah, I know, I seem to be real good at it Rolling Eyes )

Sorry, I split off the OT stuff, but Rose must have snuck in afterwards with her post.

He said he searched other ARG forums. Last I checked, Deaddrop still qualified.

 		meanwhile
So this was solved in this thread

http://www.forum.immersionunlimited.com/viewtopic.php?t=944&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30

you have to scroll down because I don't know how to reference the actual post here, sorry.

but the answer is credits

which was found by someone named Craig who translated the consonants to their code number to get what he thought was a phone number

Quote:
3o 1oo8 5ie 4ueue 9o 2a0e 1ee9

(318) 549-2019


which our darling Sin transformed by the primer into

Quote:
3 18 5 4 9 20 19

C R E D I T S


so thus:
http://www.errantmemory.com/credits

 		According to this post, the answer is explosion. The solution involves rearranging the white figures into consonants (like so), then adding the vowels in the right places.

 		EDIT: bah! Rowan, beat me by seconds! Razz
EDIT2: woops, I just posted already solved credits puzzle Embarassed sheesh I'm on the ball this morning... cleaned up the post Smile

ok, quick update from IU...

the image with EOIO repeated in the foreground, and thick slightly differing lines

S is an easy solve, someone solved P, another tried X L and N from the remaining lines, giving SPXLNEOIO... an anagram for the current stage...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

http://www.errantmemory.com/explosion


thus... we now have the puzzle:

So um... yeah... *sigh*

 		Okay, this is rather random, but I googled for 'frejus' and 'seikan' as those two seemed like words, and it turns out they are both tunnels... so I tried

http://www.errantmemory.com/tunnels

so um.... Question was that the correct answer? Very Happy

EDIT - googling the rest, there's a laerdal tunnel, and a romerik-sporten tunnel, so I'm guessing it must be Smile

What's this page all about? Lots of random stuff in the source..

 		heh sequoya, I just posted the rest on IU Smile

now I wonder if this will work... the tunnels puzzle... (edit: expand your window if the lines are double-spaced, until they're single-spaced)
