I'm assuming our expert cryptology team here is using the pictures as keys or something for the ciphers, yes?

Because I honestly have no clue how you guys are working that crazy Russian machine otherwise XD Ciphers are NOT my specialty.

 		Right.

The Spysect way of using it.

Used MrToasty's program m1253.zip
http://home.arcor.de/joedro/d/m125v4.rar

Open the Program. (PIC 1)
Click the lever twice so the P is showing (as shown in a green circle PIC 2)
Click the button at the bottom right of the program shown in a blue circle(PIC 2)
Open the code text file you have copied from the email and then saved as a txt file.
Then click the BIG Green Button and watch it magically decode!

Click the Copy button (under the top right X) to open the decoder screen so you can copy the decoded message Smile

Now can I have a piece of chocolate? Razz

New Email, by the way, I was the one who sent the name. I was playing stupid because of the sudden expression of everyone. Sorry guys, but he/she REALLY trusts me.


Awww! You're not the one who has to explain to Mary why her contact is suddenly dead! Smile

Thanks for letting us know scott. Guess it's time to move on! I wonder if Mary will play any part in this still.....

Scott sent Ilya the name of the contact that was talking to Mary, and in return he was sent the pic of the "Journey to the Centre of the Earth" book and the message.

Aaaah. I was under the assumption there was a key involved, since you guys just happen to decode something every time a new pic comes up.

I guess the pics are to be added to the list of WTFs, then.

Spysect obtained chocolate! Brownie

Level up!

 		Yeah. SO the pics and Scott's message are two separate things. I received the Jules picture, but not the coded text. The coded text was meant exclusively for Scott since it mentions Florida.

 		New e-mail from Ellie/Mary. Recall that I asked her for clarification about her name. She dodged that question completely.

I think aliens are our friends. I have no idea about the UFOs at the Russian base, my contact promised me a video, but he seems to have suddenly disappeared. Where are you from?

 		Holy jebus. I get dragged off to an all day meeting and this is what happens! I too received the emails today: a movie, a code, and the recent image; sadly I have nothing to contribute.

 		As expected, Mary contacted me again. Seems her contact was going to give her a video of himself explaining what he saw. She explains in the chat how she can't get ahold of him now.

She says there's another contact who has a video relating to sightings in Iraq, but he's not back in the states yet. Here is the full transcript:

Quote:
This chat is off the record Learn more Cancel
firstname: ok i am back

firstname lastname is busy.
firstname: I cant find him, i keep calling the phone he gave me

Sent at 8:14 PM on Tuesday
Max: Did he have an email?

firstname: Sad there was a middle man and he promised me to send an email. but he never did. I was only able to talk to the contact through phone.

Max: Hm.
Was there any information he gave you that you haven't put up on your site?

firstname: now the phone doesnt seem to even exist now Sad
he was going to give me a video!
otherwise it would be up there now

Max: Did he say where he got the video from?

firstname: No, it wasnt a video of the aliens or anything. just him explaining what he saw to a webcam or similar
what did you do with the name?

Max: Ah, alright.

firstname: I hope you kept it to your self

Max: I haven't done anything with it.

firstname: good

Max: I'm wondering if he could perhaps have uploaded it to youtube or something.

firstname: oh well, i guess now the only other news to do is the guys from Iraq
no idea Sad

Max: Hm.
What's the information from the guys in Iraq?

firstname: his sightings near US bases there
he is not the only one, i have a video posted already
and people telling me of other sightings on other military bases

Max: Ah alright. Well, there wasn't anything connected to that, so you should be safe enough to put that up.
Oh, you have a second video up now?

firstname: not yet, he said he has to come back to america before he can tell his story
he is from texas
san antonio i think

Max: Ah alright. So your second contact is going to give you a video once he gets back.

firstname: the website needs some updating, i got new pics!
yup
anything new with you?
you ask a lot of questions

Max: There are many questions to be asked. Smile

firstname: well do you have anything cool for me?
>_<

Max: heh
Not yet! But if anything comes up that I think should be on your site, you'll be the first to get it.

firstname: ok
btw, lots of people came asking about the russian guy
even more than the chupacabra thing!

firstname: you know the chupacabra right?

Max: Oh yeah
The Mexican Goat Sucker.

firstname: latest events that i am aware are in australia

near melbourne i think

Max: I haven't looked much into it recently, but am aware of the stories surrounding it.firstname: i think most of the things are fake
but not the ones in argentina
and not these in australia
those are really really freaky
their skins seem to simply fall off

Max: Most recently, I saw a video of what seemed to be a gnome captured on a cell phone camera

firstname: and their eyes explode into blood or something!

Max: That was a little... odd.

firstname: lol really?
i want to see that
is it on youtube or do you have the video?

Max: Looking it up now.
It was posted on The Sun's web site on March 11th.

firstname: mmmmh...

Max: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article902014.ece
The video is embedded on the site
This is also in Argentina.

firstname: fake
creepy
but fake

Max: heh

firstname: the chupacabras thing i mentioned is real. you should look it up Wink
ttyl

Max: Alright, take care!


We might be able to use Mary's website as a way to 'get information out to the public', so to speak. But for now, I think we just need to wait for her site to update.

 		The first thing I notice is that the Chupacabra attacks Mary speaks about occurred in locations that coincide with Kantsaywhere Institute locations.

 		I got this email around the same time Scotty got his and initially thought it was the same. Just looked at it again and I think mine is different. Seeing as how I need to head to work, I'll just post it here for you guys.

 		Hey guys, finally able to poke my head in here for a bit today. Looks like I need to catch up a bit.

Anyway, Mary seems to be stressing the chupacabra bit - any ideas as to where she may be suggesting to look for it? Also, any thoughts on the last image sent in the email (yes, I did get that one Smile)?

Actually I was thinking that the coincidence might be of use. Have we decided the IG/OOG status of kantsay? Might Vlad be able to use this to weasel info? If Ivanov isn't dead yet he might be on the run, etc. Nazis and Communists never got along well...

You can't kill something that's inanimate... Does that mean the Japanese subs are actually powered by ATheNA some sort of biological weapon? Razz

Okay, I'll stop with the silliness now. Maybe.
