Punkymoney can't really blam them... They are probably posting on forums for the first time in their life. I guess that's what defines one as a forum noob.

Anyways, I've managed to somewhat decode part of the murder so far (at least for Eric's point of view). If you guys haven't really annalyzed the Eric's third entry, the fact that Eric says "I didn't want to go that far" and "I'm not the middle child anymore" probably means that he's sick of being the one that's not getting any attention. And that is the most common expirence when you're in between. I guessing it is most likely that Eric was seeking attention from someone.

Here's another idea. If we consider the age of Paul and his 18 years of marriage, you get the idea that the 3 brothers' age are pretty far apart. Meaning that Eric gets even less attention because:

1. Janet is taking care of Luke and doing house work all the time (since Luke around 5)
2. Josef is probably in 8th grade ~ 12th grade and also more or less a teenager in his rebellious times. Meaning that he's going to be hanging out with his peers a lot, talking online, etc. etc. Therefore doesn't even give any thought to Eric.
3. Luke is way too small for Eric to "hang out" with.
4. Paul is working on Sarah and not even caring about what family's condition. The usual type of computer engineer. (My dad use to be like this)

With these few points one can only conclude that Eric is feeling that he's left out of everything and no one really likes him. A sort of passive depression bomb ready to explode. Eric wanted attention, no matter the good kind or bad. He never really had an well planned intent to kill Luke, but, it was in the back of his mind. He doesn't want to be left out.

At least that's my theory on what kind of clue we have so far...

Oh, yeah, if you guys are interested, here's a basic and vague time line I managed to come up with the family history:

1968 - Paul born (I don't know why we would need this...)
1986 - Paul and Janet were married
1987~1990 - Josef born (approx.)
1991~1995 - Eric born (approx.)
1999~2000 - Luke born
2004 Dec. 3 - eni-dmd.com set up by Paul & Paul writes profile
2005 Feb. - Luke killed by Eric
2005 Feb. 20~25 - Luke buried

The rest you guys know.

Alright, going to sleep now... Have school tomorrow...

No major updates yet. I was hoping for a major puzzle or plot twist when week 2 comes. Maybe something is on the way..

hey this is punky I don't feel like logging in right now. So does anyone have a clue about the new LOVE pic? I can't seen to make a pass out of it and no one on the other forum has come up with anything constructive. Does it seem that the major updates that we saw in week one have kinda died down to a trickle of background info with a few clues. Kind of frustrates me. I was hoping for a major event like a new web page opening up but nothing of that sort has happened yet. Well happy Hunting and gooday.

Yes, I have made a discovery and hoped someone else would see it. But evidently no one has the same (or even close) thought proccess as mine (but then again, I am quite weird when it comes to annalyzing things), so after much frustration (at the wait) and other forum members' convincing, I post up my proccess to my findings. Now everyone will see how I have gotten the picture to look like Joesf's description in his blog.

Later

well it's rad that the deltatech site opened up but I still have nothing on the LOVE pic and I can't make anything of the little squares on the twoheads pic. All I have deduced so far is that there are two sets of 5 x 7 making a total of 70 squares. I dont know of any cyper using colored squares. I'll poke around on google and see what I can dig anything up.

None of those pictures are completely solved yet. I think GM decided to change the level of difficulty since we were so good at the beginning. Figuring out so much stuff in a mere 3-4 days.

well there's been a find on fardown.jpg.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
it you open up closeup.jpg it gives you a better look at the message in the mirror. The pass has nothing to do with love but if you flip the image horizontally the numbers in the background read: 359


apparently someone has solved twobrains.gif too and there is a new set of pics to ponder.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
since zaphod had his initials burned into his brain, and there are two fuzzed out spots. these are, of course, his initials and the answer to the puzzle. zaphod beeblebrox is his full name.

i'm kingkiki217 on the other forum too.

[puzzle] dvorak

ok so the new puzzle is the walrus and the carpenter/dvorak that came from josef's latest post (D I believe). Well there was a picture referance in the source code that was named walrus.gif. this led to http://www.eni-dmd.com/josef/things.htm
which was a referace to "the walrus and the carpenter". The missing portion of the poem led to 5 more pages:
http://www.eni-dmd.com/josef/shoes.htm
http://www.eni-dmd.com/josef/ships.htm
http://www.eni-dmd.com/josef/sealingwax.htm
http://www.eni-dmd.com/josef/cabbages.htm
http://www.eni-dmd.com/josef/kings.htm

each page had a picture of a children's orcastra that had creapy skulls over their faces and music from the composer Dvorak. So far we don't know the name of the composition and really have no leads.
