London/ Puzzle

It would appear my new scribe page leads to the Olypics to be held in London in 2012.

When I tried triskabiblios.com/london I got another password page.

Also there seems to be new scribe pages for Rowan and the one for McGyver is missing.

I love how you completely failed to put spoiler tags around that, thereby spoiling it for anyone who wanted to work out the solves on their own.

Thanks.

Perhaps we need to enter some value other then toolate into the box. looking at the source it mentions rule four which is be cautious but trust however timetotrust timetobecautious becautious and trust do not work. Also has anyone tried setting their clocks back to monday morning at the time toby said he left the book?

On the page after St. Pancreas (looks like London burning?), the text says, "Book Seven, the eternal diary of Triskabiblios, will begin in Austin."

Sounds like the search will be going state-side very soon. But will we have to find Book Zero first?

And in the big, red "L" are the words John@TheRedLion. Do we need to pay "John" a visit, or has he been referenced before and someone know who he is?

And on the "Last Sighting of Book Zero"page, can anyone make out what the text on the poster says?

I think that kelly may be the one who has book zero. According to the story she saw the teapot and she seems to be special to islington. Maybe fate placed it in her hands.

On the poster all i can make out is the word triskabiblios backwards.

You can look at http://www.vibration13.com/triskabiblios/london/lastsighted.jpg for a larger version of the image - the text on the poster appears to be 'normal service will resume!'.

Edit: Have people noticed that http://www.vibration13.com/triskabiblios/london/london.jpg is a corrupt jpeg file (it appears to have been truncated)?

Edit 2: Did a search for 'red lion' in islington, and it found this one: http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/54/5431/Old_Red_Lion/Islington - wonder if John works there?

The other night (in our chat with Toby) we were informed that Book Zero is not needed to find the 13 books.

It would be nice to find Book Zero.....but the quest for the 13 would continue whether we do or not.

Carry on.....

As spotted by draghkar:

If you go to http://www.oldredliontheatre.co.uk/tlml/production (the Red Lion), then Trick or Treat, then go to the pictures link on that page, you'll see the following:

http://www.leftwithpictures.co.uk/Pic%20Pages/baby%20me%20page.htm

Which seems like a familiar phrase!

Furthermore, if you head to http://leftwithstu.proboards31.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1128763696 there's a post about time travel, followed up by 'Tobes'. I imagine it must be Toby Knowles (part of their band), but it's an odd coincidence nonetheless.

May well be a red herring, but worth mentioning I think Smile

Also, I noticed the director of the current play there is named John.. Hmm Who knows? It's worth questioning.

On the petal of the flower here http://www.vibration13.com/triskabiblios/london/kelly.php

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Sister" is written in an anagram. Could this Kelly be Izlington's sister?


Welshmam,

That hinge you received...I wonder if it is necessary to make the door Kelly needs.

Just some thoughts.

The text says that the pictures on Kelly's walls tell a story. Perhaps when we find Kelly, she'll not only have Book Zero, but her walls will give us some important info.
