[DESCRY] Kevin's Email

All WA's: Check your emails that you registered with to Studio Cypher. You should have recieved an email from Kevin.

The email directs you to the Studio Cypher forum and finally to this:

http://www.studiocypher.com/files/descry/casefile.txt

Not a clue how to decypher this, if indeed, it is meant to be decyphered.

How'd you find it? There may be another way to figure out the gibberish lines...

The plain text I can see more or less matches thaddeus, copy attached.
I wonder if there is anything in the gibberish though?

Either way this gives more info on the twins.

Again, it reinforces that the twins incident happened ten years ago. Which, I might add, is also when the Professor first picked up his WOW signal.
He seems a bit untrustworthy to me, but then, I just got here.

You could be right, he may just be being secretive because of his work, but the whole fake names thing is suspicious.

BTW I have to say the characterisation in this game isn't as strong as in the previous ones. I'm still enjoying it, but the characters are a bit flat (dimensional pun, sorry Rolling Eyes ).

they arent flat, theyre just rounded out in dimensions you arent capapble of perceiving.

Heheheheh...I can't perceive it with my crude senses of sight and touch, but hey... at least I can interact with it through form and symbol.

I just have to wonder, what kind of a guy names his cat Jefferson?

OK, not an email, but on the SC forum (for those, like me, who can hardly get in) Kevin states:
Quote:
I think that Alvin was shot at the Ayer house… the same house that the RUMI experiments were happening at. If there's any recordings of a prophesy they were with the last team's stuff, which is still all over the place here, might even be missing entirely.

I'll try to find that guy's cell, but I'm not sure what part of the complex it's in and none of the other Cyphers know, or want to say if they do know.

I, ah, I think those spirits might still be touching Raph, if he's the one creating those weird web pages. The professor is / was disconnecting something from him with RUMI. Was it those four? I'm really not sure…

I think something is building though. I can feel it, way out over here. It's like static all over my… skin. Yeah,my skin.

I think that the brothers were twins. I guess they both disappeared. One went out into thin air, and the other… I'm not sure. Maybe he just ran away.
