[UPDATE] VanGogh Directory on VKOC

Cookster cracked the VanGogh directory as told in the puzzle thread.

I haven't even gotten through all the Naoko directory, so I leave this thread for you to discuss as you will.

----

Going through it now. Another Virgil movie: 53484557414E54534D4500.mov

Did Virgil kill the drunk driver who killed his wife? We see his picture twice in the Naoko directory, once when he's speaking of him and once earlier (when you click on the word "shoot"...eek!)

Then in the Van Gogh directory, Virgil says he wouldn't kill him, even if it was justified, but there's a link to a creepy out of the way location, and a white hat lying on the ground...the same white hat the drunk driver was wearing in the picture!

Virgil might be more dangerous than we imagined.

Nisha

I haven't had a minute to look at any of this, but maybe one of Nisha's email correspondants could dash off a quick note to tell her to look at the information we have found about Virgil? Or at least tell her to be careful? I would feel better if we warned her.

And, yes, I realize how silly that sounds, but I don't want anything to happen to her if we can help it. Maybe it is just because my favorite characters always die. Laughing

Done.
Let's see what she does with it.

There is a link to it from this page:
http://virgilkingofcode.com/mastersofart/masters3.html

(That's the 3rd page in order after clicking on "but I digress..." on this page: http://virgilkingofcode.com/mastersofart )

There are a few other pictures / links as well in those pages, the links look like regular text so it may be easier for you to view the source or just move your mouse around until you find the link. Smile

Has it registered with anyone that the title of this picture is chaulk_outline? I'm seriously beginning to think that Virgil did kill Bruce Miller. As we know that Ian hates Virgil, I was thinking of sending him an email asking him to run a check on what happened to Miller. However, as Virgil now looks like he could be useful in cracking the SD card, I'm wondering whether it's a little early to be putting bad ideas into Ian's head. Any thoughts?

i think virgil is playing a game with himself. One part of him wants Ian dead, and probably had chalk_boy killed, another part likes to think that he is superior to jealousy, anger, anguish, etc. He's constructed an enigma around himself, a world of riddles, to protect/hide his true feelings. Just like his mother before him.

And of course the third and dominant part puts on a wig, and Naoko's dress, and sits on his roof in a rocking chair chanting "puzzle me puzzle me, puzzle me not, ive got a puzzle for you ive got!"


no, i will not subscribe to the pity-club-let's-all-feel-sorry-for-virgil.
he is deeply disturbed. and did i mention its nisha's turn to do a dance video?


(limits self to 1 post a week.. ohh the inhumanity!)
