I really think we should be focusing on whats in the picture... How many times has the file name mattered in the past? (The answer is 0 btw Wink )

Hey

I am sorry to say that I have no idea why my URL was on that fortune
cookie slip and I have no clues to give out. I wish I could help you
solve the puzzle but alas...

Could you guys do me a favor and please don't call or email anyone I
have linked to on my site regarding the game. They aren't involved
either.

Good luck with the game! Have fun...

Kristen

I am working on connecting words that overlap.
so far I have:

BY MY GAME FIND A RED EEE (E3, the game expo?) SLR? (a type of camera?)

or

BY MY GAME FIND ARE EEE

I think that when we solve this crossword type thing, it will point to something in the picture that is the answer. So I will be working on:

1- solving the crossword
2- brute force attacking with objects in the picture

PM if you want to chat on this.

My guess with the BC picture backup is merely a government employee trying to work on the puzzle at work, saved it as an access file so that whatever server sweepers they run won't pick it up as he's saving images from the web.

Regardless of the details, doubt it's related...

Ok guys, I think we need a quick reminder about the game thing again, remember the last challenge. The gamem8ker doesn't seem to want game titles or car names etc... instead he wants cryptic phrases. Also, if the truth is hidden in this picture, and you were to read some of the words from the crossword as find [***] by my game. Then you could essentially say "Find truth by my game" This could be nothing but it is just as far as we all are right now anyway. Is somebody willing to recap these 46 pages, I have been on this thing since about 10 pm yesterday back when it was 8 pages, now 46 and we HAVE ruled out somethings. We just haven't ruled out the obvious TRUTH about the picture.

the truth is staring us in the face, we are just all looking through the mirror instead of at it this time.

EDIT: Wargames... Joshua was the computer named after Dr. Faulkens son (The designer). Joshua died early in his fathers life. I was named after the computer in the film and because a networking tech. Wierd huh?
