augustine initiated another chat with me. please excuse all the nonsensical cryptic banter:

I've bee lurking since this all started, but it really caught my attention. I compiled a list of everything seemingly important that's happened from the beginning... It's entirely possible that I've left stuff out, so feel free to correct what's wrong.

+This morning, www.highfivegame.com said:
"Why is a raven like a writing desk?"
Also, the description was: "42 1 18 76"

Currently, it says:
"06
Palmer Was Here.
Counting: 1442
You are not expected to find it.
Give up."

There is also the found.jpg, showing an open book with a few diagrams.

None of this has been answered yet..

+Currently, www.6op1libra.com says:
"Janus had two faces, one looking forwards and one looking back, since a door can let you in, or let you out.
Volg het Witte Konijn nadat u zijn voet vindt"

The translation of the last part (from Dutch) says, "Follow the White Rabbit after you its foot find."

We've found an entire rabbit... but no foot.

The Janus they are talking about is the Roman god of doorways, beginnings, and endings. He's also what the month of January is named after... and he has a face on both sides of his head (one in back and one behind).

There is also the black and white graphic, which we haven't done anything with yet.

+Eric said, back on page 3 of this thread, "I can't say what nevar is - that is some how tied to the code. All I know is there will be a location - a key - and then a place that key works."
This hasn't been answered yet either, but probably has to do with the un/pw to www.nomennescio.com.
Also, when asked about raven, Eric mentioned that he didn't know anything about a raven, only nevar. But as mentioned, www.highfivegame.com had a riddle involving a raven this morning.

+Something Augustine mentioned in conversation to Reedus:
"Just remember who made the key and maybe you'll have an easier time recognizing it. Good luck!"
There is a literal key in the owl's left wing on www.nomennescio.org.

+On Augustine's blog, under www.nomennescio.org, it says:
"1. A Constant Speed of Light"

+The file names of the different gifs we recieved:
life1cs0
life8yu8
life5yz0
life2ea2
life4fe9
Thinking maybe "csyuyzeafe" means/anagrams to something?

+The name of the www.nomennescio.org image is "Litmus".
A litmus test has a few meanings:
chemical: using dye to test materials for acisity
political: "a question asked of a potential candidate for high office, the answer to which would determine whether the nominating official would choose to proceed with the appointment or nomination [wikipedia]"
colloquial: "any kind of social indicator used to classify someone either favorably or unfavorably [wikipedia]"
the Litmus Test of Medjugorje: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Litmus_Test_of_Medjugorje

+The "es Ci" on the image is in grey. [no menn/es ci/o]

Hope this helps, or at least makes things a little more organized.

Augustine's latest blog has a comment from Numerius Negidius. Wikipedia says it means "one who denies (negat) that he should pay (numerare)".

There's also a new link to a specific page of the Canadian Design Resource: http://www.canadiandesignresource.ca/officialgallery/?cat=44

And a photo called "faceless", but it doesn't actually show up.

Ok, having been to Augustine's blog page again, it's showing a couple of updates since I went to bed last night. There's a link to http://www.canadiandesignresource.ca/officialgallery/?cat=44, an avatar, and (for me) a non-existent picture under the category of 'Faceless' - it's showing as 1 of 0 pictures and is blank.

Edit: beaten to it

OK, I had a quick chat with Augustine (chopped slightly for brevity):

[gott_sei_dank]

so we're looking for two things here a user name and a password, how about Anonymous as a username, maybe a backdoor has been left open, as for the password my expertise of dead languages is er none, es ci seems to be the important part.

I just had a conversation on MSN with Art, who is apparently head of All May Pass Security Inc (re: the WHOIS I acquired from nomennesci.org), which was rather interesting.

off-topic: his status on MSN was "Loblaws", which is a great reference to arrested development.

[Reedus]

given the banter about latin, I'm almost positive the username and/or password has something to do with the whole no mennes cio. as was stated in an earlier post, nomen nescio (same letters, different spacing) means "noname nobody" (which was even referenced by art himself). of course, those words don't work as username/password either. but I think we're pretty close.

also, re: a constant speed of light - I think it's safe to assume the letter "c" is a suitable answer for that (whenever we're at that step (if we're not already)). finding an exact number to fit that is a bit daunting, as it seems the actual speed of light is different depending on who you ask. in fact, you could even go so far as to say the speed of light isn't constant at all. *rim shot*

check it out: the attached image is art's MSN avatar. it's also the second to last image on the canadian design resource page. its caption reads:

I'm just a little newbie, but I would love to help out here as best I can. Something that sticks out for me is:

1: This guy is definitly Canadian. Obvious, but sure.

2: For some reason, I am drawn to the tag. I dunno why. Maybe Aquarelle is the username and 3411 is the password, I dunno.

3: Maybe "Es Ci" is French. Canada has two languages, one being french and one being english, after all.
