How about "pages"?

I got "forms" instead of gazes, but I didnt get much sleep last night so dont trust me for anything at the moment Razz

[EDIT] Ah I didnt read the backwards line one, I was having trouble with an R somewhere along the lines with the cipher funnily enough, so that would explain why it says prges instead of pages, so yeah it probably is.

MG, Your first one is hex, too. Just take out the commas if you're using a decoder.

This decoder applet allows you to paste a string of hex characters along with their comma delimiters.

It accepts comma-delimited decimal chars as well.

I got this from Enoch earlier - I am NOT a math person, nor do I like Sudoku, so you all enjoy this one... I DID translate the Latin though (just to feel useful)



This was in the body of the email:

I'd love to, but I don't have the capability - but that's a nice thought!

ETA:

Soul - nice work (and thanks for doing it)! I didn't know if you had emailed Enoch w/ the answer so I told him that you had solved it - just got this reply:

Quote:
Well done, my child. I would like to award you and all of those who worked on it. Please pass the message to them that there is no need for you to be humble, but I hope you understand that this is but a small step into a whole new world.

I get the impression that this test has brought people together. Such is the meaning of The Wolf.

Wolves are family, they travel in packs, they look out for one another. All of you have looked out for me, and I also look out for you.

Without this mathematical equation, the incantation lacked balance. Your solution is what allowed me to finish the rite, and therefore move you forward so valiantly.

A man, a doctor of sorts, holds a piece of what can free our people, and give power to all of mankind. He is an enthusiast of books, but the divination I performed leads me to believe he does not know what he has.


Ghf qtayy erxo trp rx Zlhvra.

Please work quickly, our life is on the line

I just had a chat with CaineVIVIVI and boy does his name fit. He's a little devil.

Quote:
CaineVIVIVI: hey outsider
MountainGirlXD: outsider?
MountainGirlXD: I'm inside.
MountainGirlXD:
CaineVIVIVI: the hell you are... do you honestly believe that outsiders can help bring Gatewood to its rightful place in the world? Lemmie guess... Father probably told you some crap like "I see potential in you, my child." What a load sinister defication.
CaineVIVIVI: There's a revolution coming, and the old man won't even see it coming.
MountainGirlXD: I don't believe it can be done without them
MountainGirlXD: Who's revolting?
CaineVIVIVI: Why he asked for the assistance of outsiders is beyond me... You really don't have any clue of what you kids are playing with do you
MountainGirlXD: kids?
MountainGirlXD: I believe you are mistaken, friend
CaineVIVIVI: Your kind has trampled us, burned us alive
CaineVIVIVI: why do we need your help? Enoch is only using you anyways.
MountainGirlXD: There is evil everywhere. That does not mean every outsider is evil.
MountainGirlXD: How is he using us? Perhaps what needs to be done can only be done BY us.
CaineVIVIVI: Hahahahaha. Real cute sweetie. Lets see if someone gets an email from him tonight asking for some really useless info. That request of his will give him power over one of you.
CaineVIVIVI: Your just a bunch of puppets
CaineVIVIVI: Why don't you ask him about the chemical that diverted us from our natural skills?
CaineVIVIVI: I'd love to see the look on his face
MountainGirlXD: Hmmm, you sound angry. What chemical?
CaineVIVIVI: why do I bother... imagine firing a gun, being a marksman, always hitting a target. Now imagine injecting yourself with something that made the process a child's toy.
CaineVIVIVI: You don't know what your dealing with.
MountainGirlXD: How do you know. Perhaps I know more than you think.
CaineVIVIVI: I'm not like the rest of these idiots. Sladius, Arius, Athena, Isabell...
CaineVIVIVI: I wasn't born in Gatewood.
CaineVIVIVI: And I don't intend to die here either.
MountainGirlXD: Where were you born?
MountainGirlXD: I suspect you must know about the pages?
CaineVIVIVI: What difference does it make? Your lawmen found my mother in the middle of an incantation. They saw the sacrement of the animal, and they shot her.
CaineVIVIVI: The thought it was a freaking human!!!
MountainGirlXD: That is truly sad. Was it a ritual for Aethiopes?
MountainGirlXD: Obviously the pages matter very much.
MountainGirlXD: At least your father thinks so.
CaineVIVIVI: You people shoot first because you don't understand us. Why should we trust you now?
MountainGirlXD: I am sorry for your loss, but I dislike "The Man" as much as the next person. "You people" is not very kind terminology. I'll thank you to not lump me in with the likes of those who killed your mother.
CaineVIVIVI: and I will never forget the looks on their faces when the shot her either.
MountainGirlXD: Smug bastards aren't they?
CaineVIVIVI: Don't patronize me. I'm giving you a chance to back out of this whole thing before you are in way over your head.
CaineVIVIVI: you should thank me.
CaineVIVIVI: Oh, and your pages will only make your situation worse, babe.
CaineVIVIVI: Ask yourself this--
MountainGirlXD: I'm not patronizing, I'm serious. They're pigs. Don't call me babe, and I don't thank people who speak to me the way you have. I can be trusted because I fear nothing, and I only wish to help
CaineVIVIVI: Why doesn't Enoch get the pages himself?
MountainGirlXD: Perhaps he has stumbling blocks in his way such as the likes of you.
CaineVIVIVI: Touche'.
MountainGirlXD: You first called him father. Is he your father or do you refer to him as father as a religious term.
CaineVIVIVI: Hell no. It's his fricking "law of the pack" terminology.
MountainGirlXD: I think you would do well to remember the nature of the wolf.
MountainGirlXD: A pack it may be, but a pack will turn on traitors.
CaineVIVIVI: a wolf is NOTHING compared to THE Wolf. Don't say I didn't warn you. I suggest if you're going to keep going the way you're going, you better kiss Enoch's ass a little more and learn the incantations. At least be able to defend yourself for what you're walking straight into.
CaineVIVIVI: And I'm not a traitor because I have never sided with the old fool toots.
MountainGirlXD: I don't know why you're concerned for me. I'm a stranger. You must have alterior motives young one. I'm sure Enoch will not be pleased
CaineVIVIVI: How about this, we make a bet. If I'm right, you'll have a chance to side with the coming revolution. If I'm wrong, then Enoch will be able to dispose of me. Win -Win, sugar.
MountainGirlXD: Hmmm, I'll take that bet merely for the entertainment value.
CaineVIVIVI: Unfortunatley, I am one of the few who he can't touch right now. At least metaphysically.
CaineVIVIVI: I have gotten my share of beatings from his sadistic ass.
MountainGirlXD: Why can't he touch you?
CaineVIVIVI: The blood of my mother was spilled over his boundaries. I am her direct blood, therfore the sacrifices were the animal, my mother, thus making me immune.... immune to what? HE USED MY MOTHER FOR POWER. Are you getting all of this?
MountainGirlXD: Who was your mother?
CaineVIVIVI: I won't lie to you, I may be a bigot when it comes to you people, but our relationship is nothing more than an ecosystem.
MountainGirlXD: How so?
CaineVIVIVI: I guess you'll soon find out since you seem to have it all put together. Just think about it. Revolution or Extinction. We'll chat later hun.

What a snot! You did well to hold your cool - 'babe' and 'hun' are two terms that do not sit well with me...

While it is late and I'm suffering from an overdose of tryptophan, I can't figure out the latest from Enoch, I'm not seeing a substitution here and am too tired to try.

Also, Sladius has an update.

Double posting - sorry...

So, I just had a chat with Sladius, it was rather lengthy and uneventful
Summary: I "helped" him get his digital camera up and running, and he mentioned that he needed to leave to get a drink of Quinine and water - after MG's convo w/ Caine I did some research and Quinine can lead to Cinchosim. Just a thought.

While I was chatting w/ Sladius I received this email from another Gatewood member:

Quote:
Hey there, I'm Athena! I live in Gatewood, building XI. Father Enoch rewarded me with network privalages, so I thought since we're so close in age (I am 27) that maybe we could send letters to each other, maybe even type back and forth sequentially! Have Chat! I am so excited to be doing this, it gets sort of dull sometimes around here. I am specializing in Herbal Invocation, so my best friends are plants! Ha ha! I am making a joke. Actually, I spend alot of time with Isabell and Sladius (he is so handsome, but don't tell him I said that!)

I hope to talk to you soon!

May the Wolf guide you!

Athena



And with that I am heading to bed, like I wanted to 3 hours ago.. hope you all had a good thxgiving!

ETA: this is why I'm going to bed - here's the chat:
