 		Would like to join you...
Hi all,

My name is Scott, I'm from Los Angeles... I played Majestic back in 2001 and really enjoyed the experience.. May I join you? I'm pretty good with puzzles, research, and deductive reasoning.. I've read this thread from the beginning, have added Catherine on Facebook, and am up to speed on the website and the need for a login ID...

Scott

 		You're welcome to join, of course!

We're sort of at a dead point, as you might have noticed.

Any word from anonymous Olin people, Geoff?

 		Catherine's Facebook page
Hi,

I was examining Catherine's Facebook page, and no one ever mentioned that she had multiple photos posted... Not sure if this helps with the password, but has anyone explored who the other girls are in the pictures, looked up the high school she went to, or found any info on her on the Ole Miss website?

I'd noticed the photos. Didn't check on the high school. Asked her about the tap dancing shoes she wears in one (says she's danced for about 9 years). Asked her what she was going to study at Ole Miss (Childhood Education). That's about the extent I've looked at them.

It doesn't seem like the August pw "bonaparte" is related to Catherine's personal life, so I don't see a reason that September's would. But we don't know that for sure.

It could be something to look in to further.

 		Need a reminder...
Who did Olin say set the password? Did he name an individual or did he say the company did it? Maybe somehow cross-referencing the individual/company with bonaparte might give us a clue...

 		He didn't say.

Just that we could use the password to get into the RSA to set up new user accounts for ourselves.

The email transcript is a couple of pages back. Smile

 		 Does anyone know?
Did anyone ask if Catherine's friends in the pictures (Catherine's facebook-Various) had parents that worked with Catherine's father? Wink

 		RSA Memory Dump
Tried to get into RSA. Tried 'louis18' and louisXVIII', nothing. but when I first typed in RSA, I got this:

Quote:
</////////SYSTEM_CRASH/////////
Initialize: MEMORY DUMP.
Writing...
!!!/0000000608/___stowe___
/!!!/0000000708/___rembrandt___
/!!!/0000000808/___bonaparte___
/!!!/0000000909/___HALT! PROTECTED MEMORY ACCESS!
Completed: MEMORY DUMP
Reinitialize RSA


I guess this means June's password was Stowe and July's was Rembrandt.

Ummm... also I didn't really check, so did I just catch a massive trout?

also, did just get a reply from olin...

I told you in my first email. You have received all of the help you will receive from me. I told you last month's pass code simply because I had to use it last month. I am not familiar with any of the other months' pass code. Please don't abuse my good nature(ha). By the way, I bet you haven't heard from Ms. Aaron lately.

uh oh :p

 		A quick google for the three names turned up several hits for "Sunny Memories in Foreign Lands, Volume 2" (text at PG here -> http://tinyurl.com/4keogr ), written by Harriet Beecher Stowe (of Uncle Tom's Cabin fame), which mentions the other two names. I'm looking for any possible passwords, but it might just be a coincidence.

 		yeah... still not finding a connection.

bonaparte is fairly specific with some other minor names other than napoleon
rembrandt is pretty obviously the artist but there are many other possible rembrandts
stowe, well that's that just a very very common name, and not just of people

what's the commonality? Confused 2 1/2 hours...
