 		Removed previous message because it was already posted.

But doing some more "random" googles for splinternails, I found this

http://www.livejournal.com/users/p0etsou1/2002/04/28/

So, is this guy a musician too?

And nice work Ekplixi!

 		Indeed they do, nice job getting that post in before mine. (I deleted it just because we dont need tons of posts with the same info.)

 		Random info: The names of the three pages that come up are Japanese.

Kamikire=scrap of paper
Kami dete wo kiru=to cut a "kamidete". No clue what "kamidete" means, but I can get back on that.
Kamibasami=paper clip

I highly doubt it means anything. But these are some really clever puns so I thought I'd point them out: "kami" means "god" or "spirit" and "kiru/kire" means "to cut".

EDIT: Might those three phrases translate to "I'm dead." "Hey, me too." "Hear me through."

this page looks like those tiles that you slide to create an image


REMINDER TO EVERYBODY: I KNOW WE HAVE A LOT OF NEW PEOPLE ON THIS GAME. PLEASE TRY TO REMEMBER TO USE THE "SPOILER" ON YOUR
SOLVES (LIKE THE BINARY ABOVE) ITS FANTASTIC THAT EVERYONE IS
EXCITED ABOUT THE GAME BUT LET'S TRY TO STAY AS ORGANIZED AS
POSSIBLE. WE HAVE TWO OTHER THREADS. ONE IS FOR ALL QU13E COMMUNICATIONS AND THE OTHER FOR SPARKRENT. LET'S USE THOSE.
THIS THREAD SHOULD DISCUSS QU13E.COM
IT'LL JUST MAKE LIFE EASIER AS WE MOVE FORWARD.
THANKS

 		Labfly, my thoughts exactly. I've been using photoshop to put the pics together different ways, but so far nothing is standing out.

How did the person who made the text in the gate picture come up? Maybe the same needs to be done with this one.

EDIT: Figured it out, halfway.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The image needs to be put together like this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v14/yurica/pic.gif

Check out the circle--it's all zeros and ones. It's a string of binary.

I can't read binary, so if someone can translate it we'll see what it means

Its says "for your eyes only". Clearly noted a few posts above yours. They should probably have that in spoiler tags I suppose.

Well, sorry if I thought the actual image said something different. As I said, I can't read it.

 		Whether or not the binary ends up being the answer, I'm fairly sure that we have to have the images situated in that particular position. The zeros and ones matched up perfectly when I put them together, so I'm sure that's what we're supposed to do.

If the binary doesn't work though, I'm not sure what we do with the image.

 		Sorry for the double post, but MAJOR spoiler behind the cut.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The binary was "despiradox". Remove the "ic" from the url: http://www.qu13e.com/mr.espot/solitairea/despairadox.html

You'll find a note from "RM"--random martin. It reads: "If you're reading this, I'm probably dead. I certainly can't tell the difference anymore. So sick and tired of having to rummage through these variable realities like a ghost searching for its Corpse. Sifting through the what IS from the what WAS. Weeding out the what COULD HAVE BEEN from the what WILL NEVER BE. Trying to discern what MIGHT have been from the what's been MADE UP. It's tedious. Because...sometimes what IS never WAS, or wasn't entirely altogether. And maybe...maybe now as I prate and unprofoundly complain, maybe now still ISN'T, and I'm only taking for granted that it is. You see? I'll leave notes, then. Somebody's bound to find me. RM."

So to find Random Martin, we have to go to the Realm of the Dead Undead, I assume.

 		Very nice solve, I wonder if this will trigger another email. Knowing how things have gone so far we'll probably have to wait a while.
