I thouught about the courier of simpler times as the pigeons we keep seeing and Claude's only friends over the last years. Hana could leave Hiro a message now and it would appear at the same time for Hiro on the rooftop. That is where we left him last episode and maybe that is where he will be on the 15th. Alas this makes no real sence since he has given an email address and what can Hana tell him? Unless it's where she is so he can find her and beam back there. But the email make more sence since he is "monitoring" that. Ny still has internet connections apparently even after a bomb. If he is hanging out in the 15th century neither email nore notes left near the pigeon coop would be useful.

According to crew from the show the blog title is a hint and the addition of an anime character in the blog may be what we need to see since we don't seem to be seeing well.

So far Bound by death and luck have gotten me no direct connects but lead me to Tales of Arthur, focus on Lancelot.

Well, if today is the day, then you need to tell Hiro something specific to pique his interests. I tried again to redirect him to Hana and got :

To expand on Barbarellany's post, the name of the poster has been changed to Jotaro Kujo. More can be found at wikipedia

Also Masi's comments about the nature of the post can be found
here For some reason, I am unable to read the spoiler.. I will assume that it has something to do with the title though.

I posted this over at 9th wonders but thought nobody seems to be getting this so i run some ideas here as well.

A thought. 15 is also 1 and 5. First and fifth? Is that a writing style? Somehow something pathgarean keeps tickling the edge of my mind. Ring any bells for anyone else?

Another thought. Bound by death and luck > all words in the passage that would come between the words death and luck in the dictionary. This is what I got.

I didn't use punctuation or caps. Hope I didn't miss any words. Does this look like something we can work with?

It might if this is where the 15 comes in. Hana, before HRG, was a code breaker, maybe that is the reference to simpler times. Someone who knows codes if told the title was important would look at dfferent ways the title could be meant. I took a stab at words bound by death and luck and thought of a dictionary. It did reduce the message significantly. Maybe caps and puctuation involving these words is important as well.

I don't know all the famous codes, maybe there is one that uses 15.

Didn't say I was right, just trying a different way of looking at the problem. So far we haven't gotten very far. Just tossing out possibilities. Maybe it will make someone else think of another angle. We still don't know how difficult they might be. They only just asked us who was good at what. I figured they would use that as a base in setting up the game.

I was thinking 15 had to do with episode fifteen in the graphic novels series. Fiften is Wireless part three, so it ties in with hana, but no luck so far.
I was just trying keywords as my subject and body in the e-mails, I tried "conviction", "Dr. Henry Strauss", and "Tanzania, Africa", but nothing. Thought I'd throw it out there in case anyone else sees something I didn't.

At this point, I really have to wonder if we are actually supposed to be doing anything right now or if they aren't setting the stage for something later. Every other portion of this thing has been somewhere between easy and spoon-fed in difficulty. Now they go and ratchet up the difficulty to completely obscure? I don't think so.
