Hi everyone,
have been following this came for a few weeks now.

My guess is where putting to much meaning into all of this. All of the clues so far have been in-game (if I'm not mistaken).

A few ideas:
Contact me through the usual channels. - Could be a lead that we need to find a new password for the cache.

"Where an Aleph meets the Star" - Has anyone done an anagram with this one? I'm new to this so I don't know how.

And finally, (and a bit far-fetched), could it be that he is really saying: "Where an alepf meets a star" - alepf being an anagram for apfel (apple in german), leading us to the apples and the alledged star chart on the marble table.

So far in this game, all the puzzles had solutions that did not require googling or doing research on a particular topic, they were all in-game, or directly linked to it (friendsreunited link in the cache).

Which leads me to think we're probably looking too far for a solution at the moment.

The 441 gates are a nice coincidence, but there's so few references to be found, and it all seems to originate from that 'kabbalah', so that I'm definitely sure it's a false lead.

Apart from the sableshuck.com 'aleph''s anniversary, there is another reference to the aleph in game, that's in the Hilbert Hotel's guestbook (Babel):
"I came here to discuss the use of the Aleph in Mathematical Philosophy. I must say it was a most enlightening experience, and will never forget it. As far as Hilbert's went, I find it wonderfully appropriate. Although you can't help thinking there is more around the corner"
(The capitalisation in that message is a bit bizarre too, but I can't make anything of it)

"around the corner" of that entry is another entry, "ophidia in herba".
and one page back, it reads "all the latin i assumed to be meaningless turned out to have a purpose after all".

"ophidia in herba" and the names of the six signs on HWAU are the only latin phrases i have found in-game so far.

the order of the guestbook entries changes every time you reload the page. no help there. i think it's just a joke on the infinite hilbert hotel.

Cool similarities, Meak

ok here's my two cents...

aleph meets star. i think what with the recent updates we should be looking at the hornchurch star for alephs (or however you should pluralise aleph :p). just seems the most logical thing and its ingame so it fits with the current idea of looking in those sort of avenues.

just a thought (ive been pursuing it obviously, but no joy)

laters

[flo]

i can confirm there is no aleph on cans of stella.

[Noizzzey]

I think this is it

[alcofribas]

so Flo, how many cans did you have to drink to substantiate that?

(think it would have taken me quite a few before I was really sure, and of course, I would only be drinking in the line of duty )

hmm...

well we seem to agree the answer to clue will be "in-game" if it follows all the others

but Meak, I think you would make a pretty good detective if you ever give up the day job...

Hey,
Just thinking out loud:
If I was right in my last post, then the place where Aleph and Star meet is in the east banks Acheron (thats the only thing I can think of...).
Since the river Acheron flows through the realm of Hades it has to be near or in the Elysian Fields (forgive me if that was mentioned somewhere else..). Where Hotel Europa is settled... So it could be that they meet in Europa...(Pathway) Could anything be in the guestbook?
