In the source, "Log files hold more than just information." is commented.

the project. It doesn't turn off. I can't stop her from hearing me, and the problem is that I can't stop keep hearing her. I hear everything she does, everything she says, everything she thinks. Every error, every silence, whether I am present or not.

She is the most powerful thing that ? have created. With this project, I am slowly losing my mind. I feel like it is slipping away from me, like someone threw it downstream and I can't swim quick enough to catch up to it. It is almost like...

I'm losing myself to her. What have they done to me.

in the flash.

EDIT: Nevermind. It's just the font. There is "Log files hold more than just information." again though.

 		Ok so "log files hold more than just information". A quick look through the logs and I cant find anything really of interst, apart from perhaps the penultimate one (/frost) with all the red/black stuff at the start. Any ideas?

 		I have just looked through them all as well, nothing appears to be hidden in any of the sources and apart from some having different font colour im not noticing anything.

 		Could it have to do with the log number of the files? I'm fairly certain that at this point, it's impossible for the numbers to make sense chronologically...

 		IMHO I think the phrase about Log files applies to this particular file.

On another note there are 3 commented out lines:

<!-- URL's used in the movie-->
<!-- text used in the movie-->
<!--Log files hold more than just information.-->

Hmmm, what movie are we talking about here?

(edit- okay i've been corrected the movie has to do with the flash and im starting to doubt I was right about it only being this particular file, so, yeah sorry to waste your time.)

I just presumed they were added automatically by the flash program used to create the animation, suppose thats a little naive

 		It's true nonetheless:

Notice the <!-- URL's used in the movie--> and <!-- text used in the movie--> tags. What are these for?

The purpose of those tags are to let search engine index your Flash movie. Because search engines will not be able to index a .swf file, those tags are added by Flash to make the text "within" your .swf file searchable.

 		Just an observation...

The directories 371 & 5diamonds both start with digits and they are the ones with letters appended to the log file names. (11937 doesn't have a letter in the log file name, but the "power cell block 36-A" seems to stand out in the text so maybe that is a hint at the letter A)


Also, a minor correction to Kender's chart:
The colour scheme for 11937 is black text on a white background.

So, there appear to be 3 colour schemes.

 		I have been through the source of all the logs with a fine tooth comb or (or at least i think i have!) and all I can turn up are 4-5 spelling mistakes (including a misspel of Eccleastia in logfile 1222) but these don't appear to be intentional.

 		Another interesting observation...

In /napoleaon, Synagoga's comments are prefixed with "Synagoga1:", her AIM name, in the first half of the file. After her reboot we see the normal "Synagoga:"

The odd thing is that the first 3 lines of the log file are in the AIM chat transcript for 01-MAR. However, the following text(with the AIM name) where she gets stuck in a loop and the reboot do NOT occur in the chat transcript!

Heh, maybe there's more than one Synagoga. Synagoga2, Synagoga3, Synagoga4...
