http://hiru.starvedart.com/yours_truly/fin/

i'm guessing is the last step (fin) and i'm also guessing that CANINI is the user....but the password? i'm not sure....11x9x14x6 = 8316.....8316 isn't the pass though....i'm not sure what to do with it....i'll keep plugging away i guess

:edit: obviously a=1 b=2 c=3....etc etc....therefore

11=k
9=i
14=n
6=g

which gives us king...which lead to a very interesting memo. i was stoked b/c it mentioned where Hiru was last spotted which means we are closing in on him. but the memo on the whole was rather confusing, i understood what was happening,,,i just wish i new how xxxxxx and yyyyyyyy are.

i fired an email off to travis as soon as i saw the memo. which was like...1am in the morning...so now he's off to Tappahannock to check out the diners, i doubt he'll find Hiru, but hopefully he'll find something. hopefully he'll find xxxxxxxxxxx and stop him/her from doing whatever it is they have to do by the 19th.....unless its a good thing.....haha oh well we'll find out in time.
anyways, heres the reply i got from the email i sent travis this morning.

Who knows? Yours Truly is a completely mad individual.
it's impossible to tell what she could do -- stay safe, Brett.
Anyway, thank you for being clever enough to work through
the little rabbit hole Yours Truly has set up. I'm sure she'd
be delighted to feel she challenged someone. Regardless,
the end of the puzzles was certainly . . . enlightening, eh?

Thanks,
Travis

Travis makes it sound like that's the end to the puzzles. But what about all the codes in the memo from Canini? Anybody cracked those? And the mayoi picture is still a mystery correct?

i think the mayoi picture is a red herring and you should ignore it. heres a quote from one of travis's emails to me


Quote:
We can't talk about the blocked out letters in
/mayoi/ for. . .legal reasons. . .it may seem like a wild goose chase


and another....

I'm starting to think anything that Yours Truly has done has
been a red herring. She's insane, watch out for her.


and what puzzles are there in the memo??? it has the names blocked out and the IP blocked out...but thats not a puzzle becuase there is no way of solving it.

Good call on the red herring. After reading your post I would be inclined to agree. As for the memo...sorry, I am a noob and still not sure of all the codes and encryptions. I thought maybe that was in code but I guess its just blacked out. Ok, so I guess we just wait for news from Travis.

Possible clue in the memo

I'm also a noob to this type of game - but have got me hooked. I've been playing around with the memo and i'm not sure about this. Edited post: I think I got it wrong - after playing around with the memo by opening it up in Notepad - think there is only one picture now - just the logo - originally thought there may have been two pictures, was a little confused at the break in the picture code half way down the page. Never mind.

Jack, when I open it, I can only see one? Even when I highlight everything...where abouts on the page is the 2nd one?

I don't think this is the end of the puzzles...just that the end of this one happened to provide a lot of information ("was very enlightening").

Thought I'd post Travis' email...don't think it has anything important in it, but you never know.

Wow, you've really been a major help, with this time being
no exception.

It's good to know Yours Truly doesn't have any "corporate
support", but it still bothers me that she's willing to share
this big of a lead with us. Regardless, I guess it means
it's time for me to take a page for Kerouac's book and get
"On The Road" again.

Thanks,
Travis
I think the reference to Kerouac is just a figure of speech, btw.
Quote:
Jack Kerouac's "On the Road" was written on a scroll that was nearly 35 meters long. It is a wandering narrative told in a continuous block of text and is a relic of a literary phenomenon. Kerouac's scroll is currently on a four-year national tour of museums and libraries.


The reference to YT & "coporate support" is from my observation to Travis that it didn't look like the law firm had anything to do with YT or were involved with Hiru's disappearance (looks like he's gone by himself)...except that why is YT hacking into their computer system & why is the law firm tracking Hiru (& going to great lengths to stop him leaving the country)?

Guess we'll find out more once Travis returns.

But you know, Travis seems to be hiding a lot of stuff...don't know if I'd 100% trust him...
