face

You should probably take note of the face next to the policeman. The english policeman. paranormal activity in the little boxes in england= woman sees husbands face on window, police investigate.

Everyone needs to check the first couple pages of this topic. : D We have taken the photo, did some photoshop work and realized the two images behind the bobby is a photo of sea urchins, and the dark outline is that of a Windows Default Icon. The magnifying glass is right over the Policeman.

Sea Urchins: Aquapolis??
Deafault Icon: Search for the Bobby? On a computer or web? He is obviously missing.
Card in the Roladex pulled up at "G": We should call some one with the name G Gairden?
Ceaser quote: Carelessly is omitted
File Name: 00000100 Binary Code?

Questions:
Who is that man? The one from HeIsMissing?

Someone has brought up that ceaser, the one updates Paintover, is trying to tell Beth something. But Beth is the one, according to the emails, who has put up the heismissing site. Therefore, she must know Ceaser well enough to link her images to Ceaser's website.

Ideas??

'carelessly' omitted

uhm, being an English geek, I might point out that the word 'carelessly' might be missing because they used a different Folio/Quarto for their script...

Anybody care to compare versions to see? might lead to something...to explain, Shakespeare himself has more than one version of the script. There were lots of reasons, but i think part of it was just changes in artistic judgement, or a desire for a different pace for a scene, just to cut out words to cut down on time. Same sorta editing motives seen in movies today, but I'm pretty sure he used the different texts intermittently, and then some stuffy school in london put them together and called it the 'final folio' which is both of them kinda smushed together. Anyway, just thought i'd be nitpicky since i'm really embarassed by my inability to keep up with all the people working on this(i'm a dunce on decryption scripts and stuff)

Damn, straight, just read the last couple of pages and it seemed like a lot of the earlier work had been forgotten. We need to build on the work already done or we'll just keep going in circles.

Has there been anything on other boards to help narrow this down?

After sleeping on this, I've got a fresher head and hopefuly can look at this with fresh eyes (no pun intended)

Okay, how about this -- the word Cassius is directly over the G file-tab. If G is for Gairden, then that means the Caesar who runs the page is accusing Phillip of betraying him.

It's possible, I suppose. I Never considered this.

On the contrary, the best way to tackle problems like this is with a diverse mind set. We need to look at it from differnet angles and with different points of view.

In some ways a person with no decryption skills might be better at spotting more obvious stuff. As you'll see from some of the posts (mine included Embarassed ) there is a lot of guess work and brain storming involved.

Ideas feed off ideas so it's better to have a dozen "off the wall" ideas than just a few precise calculated ones. Keep the ideas coming.

Dont know if this has been noticed, but the icon is not EXACTLY the same icon. This might have been done for copyright purposes? or Since there appears to be two folders(the magnifying glass is on top directly of an semi open one. but there appears to be another behind that ne as there are definatly 2 seperate tabs to the left of the magnifying glass whereas in the actual icon it only is on top of one tab.
Sorry, I'd register, but I just began this adventure yesterday from the www.comingsoon.net website. I dont think Id be of any substantial help.

The folders are identical. The "second tab" you see is just the edge of an urchin.

Also, someone from another forum mentioned that the "0000100" numbers translated into playing card symbols; Alice in wonderland style.

Can someone expand on this, I'm not familiar with it.

I had begun to wonder if we were wrong moving away from the "Alice" theme.

If so, only the one with "carelessly" exists in Google-accessable space. Try putting that line, quoted, into Google: 255 results with "carelessly," zero results without. I would hazard a guess that it was removed intentionally.

Anagram of "careless" = "carl sees"

Not a very complex one, but hey Rolling Eyes

Is it just me or is the pic of the "bobby" at this site from the same source?
Probably taken from the same clip-art or public domain source.
