Shoot, wish I could've been around to help with that solve--but Norton popped up saying I had a virus and I spent the past few hours frantically eliminating it. XD

Anyways, nice find with that site! It seems like it's stuck on December 2, 2006 (his register date). Oddly, although his profile page indicates that he has one entry (http://doomskull.livejournal.com/profile?mode=full), his Journal page shows nothing.

It seems we can use some kind of Gizmo thing to chat with Doomskull. Hm.

Finally, we should be seeing a Chapter III on the 13 Crystal Skulls page soon.

Edit:

Not important, but I figured I'd post this email I got back from Amanda.

Quote:
I have posted the message on my wordpress blog. I just received it this evening, so you probably haven't seen it yet, but it is there, I promise.

Hugs and Kisses;

Amanda

PS: I will be more then happy to thank you, and the others like you, for getting rid of this thing for me when this is all over. I think you can understand why.

I've heard that the skulls asked you (albeit in a rather rude way) to pass a message on to us. You haven't received the message to pass to us yet, have you?

When we find the skulls and 'gather' them, they disappear from the group of skulls that is talking to you. Originally, 13 skulls talked to the chosen. Because we have 'gathered' two more skulls, there should now be only 11 skulls talking. (However, it seems as though only one skull in particular is communicating with you--sorry you got such an obnoxious one.)

So if you can pass on to us any information you get, we may be able to shut them up (hopefully this rude one, first!). Thanks for all your help, Amanda.

Sincerely,
Rekidk

Well I let Amanda know the outcome:

I wrote:

Baby steps are good, Amanda!

I saw the picture that you posted on your blog, and
working with my friends we think that we decoded it.
It is a message from your 'friend' Doomskull, directing
us to his Livejournal page:
http://doomskull.livejournal.com/

So far there is nothing on that page, but this will
change.

Thanks again Amanda! Let us know if you 'hear'
anything further. Smile

Will do and thank you very much for silencing the "voice" inside my head. Maybe now I can flirt without interruption, huh? hehe

Keep me posted on any future events, will ya? Given that I am the third, I expect there to be some more. Maybe I can give you guys a hand in helping those future people get through their experience since I have gone through it myself.


Hugs and Kisses;

Amanda

There is now something on Doomskull's livejournal page:

The code translates:

it's hexadecimal for: Your test comes soon



Also, the Crystal Skulls page has been updated with "Chapter III": http://www.freewebs.com/13crystalskulls/chapteriii.htm


EDIT: overlapping posts!

Yeah, hopefully this test will be easier than Skyskull's (which I think the PMs intended to be easier than it was).

I hope it's just as hard, or harder! I reckon most of the activity on this is going on around the weekends, so it would be good if the tests took us a few days to solve.

Ah, you're probably right. I think that we are probably blowing through some of this material faster than the PMs intended (or maybe not, who knows?).

The test is up: http://pics.livejournal.com/doomskull/pic/00001z8t

The hex codes are on the colours, so I guess we're looking for the missing ones (I make it 40 missing blocks), or maybe some of the codes are wrong.

EDIT: found the pic - it was taken from: http://html-color-codes.com/ -

The hex underneath just says the next test will be tomorrow.

Wow, that wasn't that hard! Smile

(Translation: I actually understood the solve!)

Looks like we're back to the waiting game again.

(Unfortunately, the fact that Missy hasn't blogged in a few days has kinda broken the realism for me--hopefully she logs back on soon.)

DoomSkull has this

Quote:
We Will See

We are impressed so far 20 min to solve this puzzle. You might be the chosen few, we will see. Your next test will not be so easy, and you will wait for it. You Humans need a leason in patience.

I haven't heard from you guys in a few days. I hope everything is ok. Someone, if you guys are still out there, let me know that everything is still going ok.

I Kinda get worried when the fate of the world is in our hands, and all the sudden everyone quits talking to me.

I have to go to work again tonight. This weekend has been hectic. but if you can reply to me before I go to work. I will be a little less edgy that the word is going to end soon.

/me eats his words.

Anyways, I think doomskull is right--we are pretty impatient. XD Maybe the hardest part of our next test will be waiting for it?

[UPDATE] Missy's Blog

Been Away !!!
http://missyfisher.blogspot.com/2007/01/been-away.html


Sorry guy, I had to leave with out letting you know what was going on. I had to go back to my moms house, because My Grandmother on my moms side died. So, I had to go to the funeral yesterday. I did get to meet a lot of family I didn't know I had. And I got to see my favorite Uncle He was talking about some exhibit he was showing. I don't know really what for I didn't pay that much attention, I heard exhibit and instantly got bored.

Anyways, my mom doesn't have a computer so I couldn't contact you guys to let you know what was going on. I was getting worried to because I haven't heard anything from the skulls while I was away. So, as soon as I got home I jumped on here to see what has been going on! I am going to look at the web sites you guys showed me and see what has been going on.

So, let me know what I missed????


_Missy_


Also Doomskull's livejournal is updated with a pic of a clock

[UPDATE] Aden's Blog

Quote:
Man do I have a hangover.
I am so hung over right now, I must have slept for like twelve hours today. Thanks for letting me know you guys were still out there.

I have been talking to this rude skull. But I think I am just about as grumpy as he is right now. Every time I hear him talk it makes my head hurt even worse than it already is.

I just looked at Doomskulls page, and saw he posted a new puzzle. I will try to help you as much as I can. Well as much as a hungover person with a splitting head ache can help that is.
