For some reason, the page will not work for me now that I know the un/pw.

When the page was loading, I noticed an address - kyletompkins.com

Kyle Tompkins is an artist based in Vancouver, British Columbia. It appears he also uses the phrase Art Against Art... and on this page, I found he was born in St. Augustine, Florida.



Yes! We're getting somewhere!
Kyle Tompkins is definitely part of the game.
This page: http://www.kyletompkins.com/wp/?page_id=26
Shows a beating heart. Augustine had a black and white version of this picture as his avatar on MSN. See attached.


Not seeing anything in the source that would involve kyletompkins.com.
Am I missing something in the scripts?

I see it too, but Rogi is right... nothing in the code. Maybe it was unintentional and we've stumbled apon the PM.

 		He's probably pulling stuff from the site. Kyle is too real to be in game, there's far too much out there about him. Unless they started this a long, long time ago Wink

Well, it may have been unintentional for us to notice the site the data was being transferred from, but they are dropping hints..

AA says...
BRAVO ... on the butter chicken.


A new clue? I believe so.
Aulus Agerius?
That's the other half of Nomen Nescio. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerius_Negidius

 		We should assume that Kyle Tompkins is Out of the Game, his website appears due to an error with the server (http://nomennescio.org/images/) all images in there redirect to his site.
I assume this is why he uses imageshack - because there's no other alternative.

 		From Wikipedia:
Quote:
Si paret Numerium Negidium Aulo Agerio sestertium decem milia dare oportere, meaning "If it appears that Numerius Negidius ought to pay Aulus Agerius ten thousand sesterces".

 		doing a wikipedia search on the name Aulus Agerius redirects to Numeris Negidius, which also references Nomen Nescio. Someone asked if this name might be a clue. DEFINITELY.

edit: oh, I see mason already updated his post. Wink

I'm not so sure he is out of the game, especially when Augustine uses one of his paintings as his MSN avatar. I think more research is in order.

 		litmus was referenced at least once before. I made a note of it. we've done a bit of research on litmus on the IRC channel, but nothing substantial has come up yet.
