You're now my official God Troon.

Good cracking although the last bit of the result makes no sense to me =/
What cypher did you use? There seem to be many possibilities.

So with proper spacing, that's

NEITHER MY FIRST JOURNEY NOR LUBBOCK TO TEMPLE


Those are both places in Texas again. I've drawn a line on the map you posted, Wang, in green to show this second route that it isn't.

Perhaps it's at the crossing point, the Abilene/Clyde area?

hehe Yeah I was just about to post that picture.

Good call on the A/C thing. I completely miss-read his message, and just blindly figured he went to the last spot.

Only thing of note I can find in that Area is Dyefs Air Force Base... I hope he doesn't plan on stealing a plane

I think I have a solve for the newest riddle.

Oh and for those tracking me: 20,6,377


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I'm fairly certain it's giving the road directions. Abiliene is on I-20 (Eastland)...take that to Texas State Highway 6 (near Cisco), and it intersects US 377 in the city of Dublin in Erath County, home of the oldest Doctor Pepper bottling plant (courtesy of Wikipedia)

You are very sloppy at hiding stuff on the internet We even know your wifes name.... who is in charge of the deus ex sight now it shows you are not on your profile??

Oh yeah, Theophilus is either a Pope-wannabe, the guy that wrote Luke's Apostle or litteraly "Lover of God". According to trusty old Wiki.

Now this is SPEC but I think I've put 2 and 2 together in the right order.

The guy in the new video is Brother Theophilus. Adam's new Blogger name is Brother Theo...

Brother Theo(philus). Too close to be a coincidence.

I think the videos Brackin finds and shows us, are information sent to him by his future self. He's trying to warn himself of what Foo has done with the information he's being sent by DefenseCorp, and hoping that his past self will change the present, preventing the Foo-ture (bad pun i know) from happening.

This also explains his "My death is a scientific impossibilty" tag on his blogger profile.

Trout as fitting.

-Spec out

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. It creates a nice symmetry, Foo is communicating with Fujimoto, his future self, just as Brackin is now getting messages from Brother Theophilus, his future self.

Also if Troons puzzle solve is correct (seems fitting to me)
this is where Adam is headed now.

Brother Theo blog:

Found it!

I traveled three towns to find them:
Maxwell, Mandrell, and Wright.
Only one had what I sought,
although I knew it not,
all three had something I needed.
The first gave me courage,
the second one strength,
and the third the knowledge required.
Now I move up to follow the trace,
beginning with these:
Westwood Hall and Reaves,
forever leaving my friends behind.

I can't figure out the riddle here yet, but Maxwell Mandrell and Wright could be the names of the people on the project.

The only last name we know other than Brackin and Fujimoto is Alexis WRIGHT, after all. Maybe we need to check for account profiles for the other people on the project now (although if the last three are names too, that leaves us with eight people....one more than we should have)

EDIT - Since there's no comma in between Westwood and Hall, it's possible that person's last name is XXXX Westwood Hall. When I get off work, I'll fire off an email to Alexis's YouTube account to see if she's been in recent contact with Brackin (since as the third person, she'd be the one with the "knowledge")

Ok here I go, tell me if you think I'm wrong:

From everything I've searched, Westwood Hall comes up as being a Unitarian Church in Houston, but I can't find the connection to Reaves yet. Maybe a person or could be a street, even a building.

Ok, so, replies? Ideas? Come on people, lets work together on this, I'm sick of doing all the work. Just kidding, I know I rely on you all for a ton of the work.

Good Job ALL
