Pfft! Perfect timing to make me feel bad about stepping out :/ I'm guessing it's not their intention to have people get left out and left behind, so, I'll tentatively step back in, even if only on the sideline. Yay.

Can I ask something though? I (and I'm sure others) can't follow this as directly as some of you. If you post a link (like this: http://dailymurderfans.eamped.com/ or a code solve for example) can you please explain where it comes from or how you found it, etc. Sorry and thankyou!

Posting

No need for apologies plug. It's actually more our fault for neglecting the forum. We've been reprimanded for this oversight and plan on correcting the issue.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to use the Dailymurder forum for IG things such as ciphers, emails, conversations, etc.... and UF forum for game theory, speculation, and other OOG "iness"?

just got an email from Shrii, as follows:

Quote:
The blog is taking the backburner, currently. There has been suspiciously no murders in a long while. The count is still at 20. Rabbit is currently out on the field taking notes of the newer murders. She likely won't be back until much later, so expect no responses from her for a while.


ETA:
I wasn't sure where I should post this on the dailymurderfan board or even if I should post it there, but I got an email from Josh in response to my thanking him for the great werewolf info. Here's what he sent:

Quote:
No problem!

But shouldn't we think about who the real enemy is? The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

EXCELLENT! So, I'm supposing we should apply multiplication in a similar sort of sequence?

By George (or loli in this case), I've got it!!

see http://dailymurderfans.eamped.com/topic9.html for a complete explanation as to how this worked, but the number sequence code translates as this:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
you are conversing with many werewolves


I can only take some of the credit for this though, as loli was the one who came up with the idea to divide by the fibonacci numbers instead of multiply.

I got an mp3 from None today. I don't think the voice needs to be reversed, but I'm not an audio guy, so one of you audio whizzes should take a listen.

More of my conversations with Josh:

MickeyFinn:
Quote:
in your experience, have you heard of vampires and werewolves coexisting in the same place?


Josh:
Quote:
There is a town called Forks where they apparently coexist, albeit not entirely peacefully.


MickeyFinn:
Quote:
have you ever read or heard anything about werewolves and vampires teaming up against a common foe?


Josh:
Quote:
I have, my little sister read a book once about it...

Have you ever heard of Forks? It's a town in Washington.


which leads us back to the Twilight book series - particularly the book Eclipse - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eclipse_%28novel%29

I'm starting to notice the similarities here. Heh, and I guess they were lost on me since I kinda skipped over reading up on Twilight when it was first mentioned back in the beginning.

Here are a few of the points I noticed in the plot of the book:

-There is a string of killings in Seattle
-A group of vampires kinda 'teams up' with a group of werewolves to stop the newborn vampires that are behind the killings
-The character Bella has to choose between a vampire she loves and a werewolf she loves

There are more interesting things in there, but I'm tired and it's also possibly too early to draw certain parallels between the happenings in the book and what's going on in this scenario.

Dunno if I qualify for this list - I didn't get Josh's email, but I did get one from Mr Fibonacci (crescent.pentacleSPLATgmail.com):

Mr Fibonacci wrote:

Take a look:

Do YOU believe in Vampires?


Emailed him back, basically telling him that I believe in what I can see (and setting him a little puzzle). Twisted Evil

ETA: The address Mr Fibonacci sent the email to was thegovernmentSPLATwants-to-silence.us - and I don't remember giving that to anyone except a few friends and the Studio Cypher team.

Could this be a revival of Studio Cypher? (bounce bounce bounce)

Heh, I hope Shrii doesn't think I already knew this, as this is the first email I've gotten from her from this address -

from Shrii Love - shrii.daily.murderSPLATgmail.com:

Perhaps you should make it known I have an email address? Lol.

Macavity, the email you received was from White Rabbit. That's the email address for her, the Mr. Fibonacci thing was just a clue to the latest cipher.

The BG audio is backward, the voice is not.

I couldn't make out much at first, except the part "Stop trying to hide."

Electronic voices freak me the hell out, though, so I'ma gonna hold off on listening to that puppy again until later.
