Yeah, the damn rat was a problem. Sad

Edit:

Well, I had another idea. Since signs of the zodiac are ruled by a certain planet, I figured that could be used to place them on the wheel, in their specific sectors. So the position of, say, Aires would be relative to the position of Mars, which is to the left of the chinese character.

It didn't quite work out to anything, unfortunately, using ids Agent010 and Agent 010. But maybe I'm just making this all a bit more complicated than it's supposed to be.

Ooh, got an interesting email from "GMS Operations" (opsSPLATgrauemacht.com)...
Quote:
*** CLASSIFIED TRANSMISSION ***

To: AGENT 010

Please confirm receipt of materials.

We have lost contact with Agent 015 and cannot confirm delivery. We are sending a team to Auburn to determine whereabouts of Agent 015 and to determine whether security codes were compromised.

Upon confirmation, proceed to primary target in New York City and await further instructions.

Launch intercept remains scheduled for 13th. Cruisers on route. Will arrange air transport to North Atlantic upon termination and confirmation of primary target.

Sending a reply, as follows:

Central Command,

Can confirm receipt of materials. Accompanying note destroyed as instructed. Having problems logging into site - trouble moving to the new security level again?

- AGENT 010

Acknowledged.

Logins are currently being reassigned due to breach in security. Once field team reports on the whereabouts of Agent 015 and code integrity is verified, access will be provided through personal communication.

Await further instructions.

I got something also, Lex.

Quote:
Internal code sequencers are for authorized representatives of GraueMacht Security Services and their subsidiaries.

Please provide proper identification materials within 48 hours. You may also visit our corporate office in that time during which your identification will be confirmed by Tier 3 security personnel.

Your communication has been flagged as a Level Six incident. Failure to comply with the above guidelines within the 48 hours will signify a breach in security and will be responded to swiftly and in full force.

Once again, you have 48 hours to comply.

GMS


And I sent, back during the silence:

Quote:
Could you issue me the new sequencer, please? Obviously my current one is of no more use.


Now I need an Agent name to use. Maybe I can say I'm the missing Agent 015?

I am in New York, so that works out well with the Auburn thing if they're talking about Auburn, MA.

Sounds like we got 48 hours to me... Also an Auburn CA (and prob.14 others...)

New blog. Makes it sound like we're overthinking it?

Someone's listening...

Quote:
Today is 8/10/2008

Access Code:
Uranus 05
Dragon 03
Virgo 08
Ram 04
Dog 09
Saturn 05


If we can't figure this one out we might as well buy a rifle and start shooting adepts.

ETA: I tried my method outlined above with all 12 possible constellations, AGENT 010, AGENT010, DSN***, AGENT 10 & AGENT10, upper and lower case for the pw. None worked. So I think we can start looking for new ways to solve the wheel...

Question.. That DSN*** whatever, sort of looks like a serial number to me. Is it on both?

In other words, I don't think we can log in yet. I specifically asked that question to get us our login.

If it's a planet, count clockwise along the zigzag from the relevant line (starting at 00). Otherwise count from the start of the segment.

ALMOST got it, just forgot about starting at 00.

Kudos to Lex.
