 		OK, at first, here is Youtube text by Noriko-san

Quote:
秘密のサイトを教えてもらったんですが、自分のデータを入れて出てきた言葉は「Sop hrosune696 is active」どういう事？ What means?　このサイトは誰が何の目的で作ったの？何で私のデータが暗号として使われているの？何より、次にとるステップは？


translation:

Quote:
I've got information about secret site, and I could input my own data, so I've got the message "Sophrosune696 is active". What does it mean? What means? For which purpose has he made that site? Why is this my data like a password? And, what's the next?



And here translation of her speech

Quote:
Last weekend Ariadne told us about that historian Eli Hunt and asked us to cooperate with him. Firstly Mr. Hunt hestitated, but after that he also cooperated with us. And after that I've watchen his 3rd podcats, but I haven't recognized anything similiar to my thought. Then there was a secret website. You know, this website is a little bit strange. There is just that IP address, and no domain or site name. And you can see there a planetarium alike image of moving Earth. But Vladimir-san and Michelle-san told me about it: if you input "Sophrosune", you'll get an confirmation. And if you put in data of my right ring finger length and my pulse, there comes a message "Sophrosine is active".

I absolutely don't understand this meaning. I dont't get this meaning, why is it? And if this site isn't made by Hunt-sun, who has generated it? And why they have my data in their system? And the others get the same message.

And what is the next?

 		I've transfered our chat to this thread.

Well, actually yesterday I've chatted with Noriko again.
I've pointed out the mysterious site.
And she told me about one phenomenon. (My previous translation of her second video was a little bit wrong - I'll update it and wiki. And in some mysterious way Noriko-san knows I haven't understood that her second video Wink)

Here some take outs:

Quote:
Nanashino:
ウラジミルさん、私がYoutubeの２回目ので言ってた事って、分かった？
えっとね、私、今まで、って言っても１ヶ月位なんだけど＾＾；道に迷った事ないの。
Sophrosune６９６を思い出したのも、ミキさんに遠くに車で連れて行ってもらって、そこから走って家まで戻ってきた時に思い出したの。
１５キロだよ！それに、何で方向感覚がこんなに良いのかもわかんない。
コンパスとか地図持ってるわけじゃないのに。
で、ハントさんの３つめのポッドキャスト見てて、ちょっと似てるなあ、って思ったの。。。　でも私ギリシャ語とか全然わかんないし、偶然だろうけどね。(Did you have understood my second video? Well, that video is already old one... Anyway, Miki-san has driven me with her car far away from her home, and from there I was running all the way back, and I've recalled that "Sophrosune696"-stuff.
I was running 15 kilometers long! And I don't know, why I had that pretty good feeling for direction... And I haven't any compass or maps...
And after that I've watched the 3rd podcast by Hunt, and I thought: "It is in some ways similiar...". But since I don't understand Greek, I suppose, it's just a coincidence)
Ich: あの、ちょっと分かりませんでしたけど、１５キロ走ったの？ (Sorry, I don't understand, was you running 15 kilometers?)
Nanashino: 家から１５キロ位はなれた所に、車で連れて行ってもらったの。
知らない所ね。
そこでおろしてもらって、走って帰ってきたの。
で、道に迷わないのが不思議だな～、って思ってるの。 (I was driven 15 kilometers far away from home, Miki-san let me off in the unknown place and I was running all the way home. Since I don't know the streets I thought, it were just a miracle)
Ich: 分かった！すごいね！ (I've got it! Awesome!)
Nanashino: うん、自分でもすごいと思う。笑
ミキさんも、最初は偶然と思ってたみたいだけど、そうじゃなさそうって事で、遠くに連れてってくれた。＾＿＾ (Yes, I also think, it's awesome ^^. Miki-san seemed also to think, it were a coincidence. But I don't really think so, since she has driven me far away ^-^)
Ich: っていうか範子さんのオリエンテーション は素晴らしいね！(Your orientation seems to be great!)
Nanashino: そうみたい。＾＾； (Yes, it seems to be)


Then about Hunts mystery site:

Quote:
Nanashino: あ、それと、メールで言ってた心拍数は、いつ図ればいいのかな？
運動の後とか？それとも今？ (You asked me in the email about pulse, when have I to measure it? After exercise? Or just now?)
Ich: どうかな。。。たぶん、普通の？ (Hmm... perhaps just your norm?)
Nanashino: 普通の、静止してる状態ってこと？ (You mean, my current condition?)
Ich: はい (Yes)
[...]
Nanashino: じゃ、今計るね。＾＾ (Well, I'll measure it now)
Ich: ありがとうね＾＾ (Thanx)
Nanashino: ５６
いえ、こちらこそ有難うだよ～～＞＿＜ (Now, thank you)
Ich: じつはね、
あの秘密のページを見ました？ (The thing is, have you checked out that site?)
http://164.109.150.213/index.html
Nanashino: 何か、コードがいるんだよね
名前もないし、不思議なサイトだね
テクニカルな事は良く分からないの＠＿＠ (Well, I cannot input any code there. Very strange site, without domain... I don't really understand technical stuff)
Ich: ねあの、このサイトで コード書けますよ (But you can input a code there)
Nanashino: え～？どうやって？ (How can I do it?)
Ich: この地球のアニメーションに
クリックして、
あとでペースして、
でこれからそんなコマンドラインの感じがあります
>
って (You have just to click on that Earth animation, and with space, and than you'll see a command line with ">" sign)
[than we've tried unsuccessful to get it, but Noriko san will contact Kai about inputing that code]
[...]
Ich: 僕は今、
範子さんのデータインプットしてしまった (The thing is, I've put in your data)
Nanashino: OO!
Dou desuka? (Oh! And how is it?)
Ich: あのう、
そんなメッセージがきた (Well, following message comes:)
Sophrosune696 is active
Nanashino: おお！ (Oh!)
Ich: よく分からないけど (I don't really understand it meaning, though)
Nanashino: 何か分かった事がある？ (And what have you understood?)
Ich: あの、このシステムで 皆さんの６人のニックネーム（って言う）あります アリアドネとか、マルクスとか (Well, in this system there are nicknames of all your 6 people, Ariadne, Markus etc.)
Nanashino: ニックネーム？ (Nicknames?)
Ich: いえいえ
あの (No, I mean)
Ｓｏｐｈｒｏｓｕｎｅ６９６って
Nanashino: ああ！ (Ah!)
Ich: ニックネームじゃないけど
でね (Well, that aren't really nicknames)
Nanashino: はい (Yes)
Ich: ''Ｓｏｐｈｒｏｓｕｎｅ６９６''だてインプットしたら
Incomplete agonothenai ID. Please include boistats. Correct login form:
strength#/R r. finger length in cm/RHR in bmp
って言うメッセージきます
あのう、
もっとデータのこと書いてくれって (If I give in just "Sophrosune696", it shows me the message, that data were incomplete)
Nanashino: はい (Yes)
Ich: でね
strength#
って言うのは、範子さんの場合でＳｏｐｈｒｏｓｕｎｅ６９６です (And you know, "strength#" is for Norikosan, for "Sophrosune696")
Nanashino: はい (Yes)
Ich: だから、Ｓｏｐｈｒｏｓｕｎｅは
strength
って言うか
力
の意味でそう (So "Sophrosune" means your strength)
Nanashino: はい (Yes)
Ich: でね
このシステムは、
ちょっとＳｏｐｈｒｏｓｕｎｅについて知ってます (And you know, the system does know more about "Sophrosune")
Nanashino: どういうこと？ (And what?)
Ich: You bring balance, self-control and an open mind to our mission.
You will be one of our advisers.
って
Nanashino: おおお～
私、ほんとにそうなのかな～？
だって何にも覚えてないよ！ (Oh! Is it really so about me? But I cannot recall anything)
Ich: あのね、範子さんのデータだよ (It was your data, Noriko-san)
Nanashino: 英語もエスペラント語もギリシャ語も分からないし＠＿＠ (I don't speak neither English, nor Esperanto, nor Greek)
Ich: たぶん、この前に分かったかも (Perhaps you used to speak it once?...)
Nanashino: う～ん、どうだろね。 (Yes, how could it be?...)
Ich: たぶん、範子さんは記憶喪失の前に
この入れ墨をエスペラント語で書きました (Perhaps you have written that tattoo yourself, before your amnesia?)
ごめんね、
僕のシェフ
今来ますから
ちょっと行かないと (Sorry, my chef is coming, I've to go, cu)
Nanashino: はい　：） はい、又ね！　ありがと☆ (Yes, buy, thanx)


SUMMARY:

- Noriko has perfect orientation feeling. (Some connection to omphalos system? Noriko see some similarities with 3rd podcast of Eli Hunt)
- Miki-san knows something. She has extra driven Noriko far away from home and let her off. (Do we know enough about people, helping our 6 heroes?)
- Yes, her pulse is 56. (Well we know it already, I just don't wanted to alarm her)
- She thinks now more about meaning of Sophrosune

I'm waiting for her next blog/video Smile
Perhaps she'll get some new ideas.

 		@kosmopol:

I think we should put your chat log also on the wiki. When was this chat (March 11, 12 or 13)? Would you copy it there or should I do?

Thank you, you can update a bruce wiki and argr wiki also.
I've chatted with Noriko on 12th March.

(Btw., in argr wiki you can write, "kosmopol" aka Merzmensch Smile)

Viele Grüße! Smile

 		And to the admins of wiki:

Blog 119 is not a blog of Noriko. This is just blog of media watchers, who writes news about youtube media news. So it has no clues to the game. But perhaps interesting, though (I mean, Japanese perspective to the game).

 		ah yes, good point, thanks for noticing. Even the translated text included reference to Noriko, along with a translation of her real blog entry with the video. hehe.
It's out now. All the blog119 stuff was duplicated from her two first video blog entries.
