I got message 4 of 4 from Endrid. Obviously we've got to put these 4 messages together to come up with an answer. (my thoughts are in bold and in italic.)
Quote:
Y =
ayxyzyxbyxzqyzyxqynqqqyzxcyczxscxzcxxcczqcyxzwcycxzycxzyqecxzyczxycqrqqyyzzxcz = answer (assuming the b is a mistake)
S = X in L(M Algorythm)
Y = S/(U Algorythm)
_____________________

A = 123456 = answer (this is just a guess)
M Algorythm applied to A: 261435 = B = nrawse (this is also a guess)
U Algorythm applied to B = 123456

sdrow owt = two words


brbowwotboeboowwttbobbobpbbowbowwwbbttbbwlbowobtyboowboow = reply

ayxyzyxbyxzqyzyxqynqqqyzxcyczxscxzcxxcczqcyxzwcycxzycxzyqecxzyczxycqrqqyyzzxcz = answer (once again assuming b is a mistake)


On a long shot, I replied with "two words."

Like Palm, I sent a message to Support at LazarusUnion.org

Subject: how long is temporary
The site has been down for a long temporary time. Is there a problem?

Support to me wrote:
We apologize for the inconvenience, but getting our server online is a
long and grueling process.
Thank you for your patience.
the last two lines were in purple. Don't know if that is a clue or to just make it stand out more.

I would seem that way; getting a server up with such simplistic web pages is hardly "grueling"...

I was emailed by support as well, basically the same email as Palm's except they sent me a code as well.

From a separate thread:

Silent Monk wrote:
Sent in my "long bus trip" idea and not only am I not correct, but Im a few letters short.

The response I got was from endridmercy and a jpg came back that showed this

Can't seem to figure out what it might be.... other than the second word might be....

Which would leave us with NUBURST.

Aha, I saw that, I figured he was just guessing. I was expecting an actual word or words that might make sense in the grand scope of the game. Who the heck is Stuart Washburn?

Silent Monk you still need to post the jpg you got. Never mind, I misread read your post.

Nextday, did you send a reply to the code you got?

Seems to be a professor at The University of Washington doing an independent study on a previously unheard of virus.

My first post

Created this blog before bed tonight. I always wanted to blog, but now I have a good reason. I'm going to look into this information that was anonymously delivered to me at my home. It contains various files on some strange virus I've never heard of before. They call it the "Sentient Virus".

I will post more when I have all of my information together.

The only Sentient Virus thing that came up when I googled it was the Despotellis, apparently a virus from the DC Comics' Green Lantern Corps thingamabob.

cool natas.

Sentient basically means an intelligent living thing. Therefore, what we have is an unknown live smart virus that has yet to be named.

For some reason, this virus sounds vaguely familiar....but I can't quite place where I heard about it.

Off the top of my head, the closest I've ever heard of a 'sentient virus' is the H5N1 (bird flu) virus or that new strain of Staph bacteria. (Which of course doesn't apply, because it's a bacteria xD)
