 		Sorry - I kept forgetting to check the flash when I got home. There's a message in it from vis - cute but nothing vital since we already found hint4 (I've attached a screenshot).

Kit? Is that vis' name? And I wonder what Dave is doing that is worrying him so.

Btw - the weasels are fine :)

 		There's some new text on energy->tartarus, below the pictures:

It doesn't appear to be a ROT, maybe a Vigenere?

Edit: oops, check other pages too:
idea:

Say you're on a road. Where does it lead?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
to Rome, of course! New keyword

 		Whoa, this gets its own post.
From energy->rome:
Quote:
The city shifted as she walked through it. Buildings rose and fell, constructing and wrecking themselves in ceaseless, tortured motion. Fire raced willy-nilly through the streets, any trace of its passage quickly swallowed in the vast remaking. Shrieks and groans rent the air, not just of masonry...sounding, as always, as though heard through a thick wall, or perhaps a head injury.

The roads, however, were always the same. Perhaps they were the only things the shadowy inhabitants' memories agreed upon...


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
new keyword! hell


Still looking into it, but there's a new text box with a button labeled "cross". Not sure what to do with it yet.

Edit: well on idea->rome they talk about Lutetia, which is an ancient city that eventually became Paris, so I tried that as a keyword and got a cute answer:
idea->paris
Quote:
That was an interesting, though pointless response.

It is a vigenere.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Use "energy" for the key and you get:

communicationcommunicationcommunicationcommunicationcommunicationcommunication

This is a valid keyword - but on energy at least, it seems to be the same as the hell page. Idea and Will though both have their own communication page.


Thanks to johnny nitro & sapagoo in #uf for helping out.

Edit: funny enough - paris also gives you the hell page on energy. What's up with that?

 		bridge is also a keyword now, but for energy only. If communication is to be believed, bridges are the sort of thing she would need.

As for the new text box, I'm making a logical leap of faith myself and assuming that it's a way to communicate, perhaps with this Jill herself. I've typed in two things so far - one a request for a better way to communicate, the other a hint that she should try using those stalagtites and trees as a makeshift bridge.

We'll see what happens.

...no, I *didn't* encode the mess this time. This person's not vis. ^_^

 		It seems like any invalid keyword on energy takes you to that page with the new text box, so I don't think "hell" or "bridge" are true keys.

I'm going to try to send something to wunderSPLATchaoseed.com, since nothing has appeared in her directory yet.

Edit: wunderSPLATchaoseed.com doesn't exist apparently.

 		There was an update yesterday, but the only change I've found so far is that only "communication" on the energy page takes you to the page with the cross button.

Before that, any invalid keyword on energy would bring you to it.
