What address did the email come from? Any chance of posting the headers to the email? Not sure if you can even do that with hotmail.

There's something significant in this ad. My gut tells me that there's no good reason why the ad would look so, for lack of a better word, sloppy.

But yikes. Prepare for the hordes to descend, gang. They are sweeping broader than just people who see the rabbitholes and their friends or people who read media reports. We're going to get a lot of n00bs. And idiots, maybe. Sharpen your politeness tools and links to basic resources. You'll need them to explain to the masses what's up. Sigh.

We are welcoming. And patient. Sort of. We like [Search] and people who think before they post. And the TOS. But not much more.

But really. Expect lurkers to get active. And people who speak before they lurk. And people who wander in with the complete answer and are just looking for someone to tell. (whoo! thanks!) And people who really want to figure out how to do this stuff (tell them). May be more raucous than we're used to, but fun.


Oh, and please remember: [trout] is best served cold. By that I mean not in the heat of the moment and especially not with n00bs. And if with n00bs who persist, served only with an explanation. Gentle, gentlefolks.

Surely you don't mean that we should intentionally feed any trout to the noobs, do you? Herring, perhaps, possibly of a crimsonish hue ... Very Happy

 Red Herring

Are we on the hunt, or saving the fox?

Kitsune leads to fox, her eye reflection is green, leads to kitsunesuki? (possession by fox usually female...hmmmm...loki is female) but shadow in lore reflects a fox at end of video seems like blurred could be outline of a fox face? Red Herring [trout in a crimson hue?] has a tie in it seems as a diversion to let a fox escape by using to hide trail (ie, RED DART? symbolism?), they have power of foxfire (FireFox perhaps? reversed for the program) further tie ins i'm chasing in circles is the idea that pi, the movie also made by requium of a dream? in the movie pi (symbol not word) the guy plays Go with his "mentor" very similar to some puzzles it seems....wonder if it ties in? the number 7 keeps repeating in my calculations, and says has 7 tails. so..... is anyone else being driven mad by this all? it's easy to over-think these.....
plus when i went to the puzzle with the coordinates when i searched loki under people in the program it brought up e loki at
555 New Brunswick Ave Apt
1G, Fords, NJ and the phone numbers scrambled together, when you roll over but not touch the names, varying parts of numbers and letters shift, i'm still working on this any help if it's even anything woulf be good, there are 2 listings that come up untouchable and theres one under Loki Wulf too.....anyone els see something in it perhaps?

just another noob i guess...

Well, I could be just another 'noob' that you guys seem to be so friendly towards Rolling Eyes but anyway...

I thought I'd help you eliminate this from your suspicions. This is a copy of the header from my email (of course with my address taken out). No reply necessary... thx.
