Might be unrelated, but when you go to locked-down, at the bottom it says:

"powered by codes made by Dabomstew"

I was hoping it wasn't the case, but I have the inclination to agree that all this stuff might be unrelated and just a coincidence that they have the same name.

Hi guys, been lurking.

The picture from Robbie's Facebook is the logo Big Brother UK uses, they vary the colour scheme but otherwise it's just that eye image with "LIF3" added rather badly in Photoshop. Could still be stegged or something but seems more like a simple logo to make for a fan game, and British people would probably make the link quickly surfing Facebook during play.

This does have shades of Dead Set but doesn't seem related, in that the zombies were everywhere eating everyone and there were bodies everywhere outside etc.

It's true, it's a twist on the BB logo and there's plenty of examples here. It does kinda stand out if you live in the UK as it's hyped up beyond belief once a year.

I had no replies to my last few messages (sent one to a few of the housemates) but then again events have moved so quickly that they're kind of obsolete now. Sent Robbie a message through Facebook.

do we have a consensus as to pursue this avenue further? or look in a different direction? i was just curious as to where everyone stands on this one.

I think we pursue it until it becomes obvious that it's not part of this. Lance hinted at a website. I emailed Shawn about it, but nothing yet.

Ugh, I've run the text part from dabomstew.com code backwards and forwards through ROT and Base 64 with no luck. I don't have enough energy for the numerical part. I'm sure it a code, maybe not even for us, though I'm sure there's something. I'm still a n00b but its fun. Lol.

EDIT: Well, a little something maybe, more google hunting got me the company info for dabomstew.com via http://www.aboutus.org/DaBomStew.com

Private site
8 Orchy Crescent, Island Bay
Wellington, Zealand 6002,
NEW ZEALAND

Phone: +64 43838316
dbs.stewSPLATgmail.com

I emailed him/them asking about their involvement and we'll break the code. I want to see if the addy will bounce back. Could be the Mast3r? Though I guess we don't have much to say till we break the code. I won't be up till the afternoon. Good luck everyone!

More Googling:
-dabomstew.info and .net lead to dabomstew.com
-http://vgboy.com/ and http://mccodes.com/ is on the DABOMSTEW.INFO server via WHOIS but seem irrelevant.
DaBomStew seem to be a really good programmer/coder/gamer. That's what I gather from his online personalities. Not sure if it'll tie in.

More from Robbie on the Get Lif3 off the Air group:-

Robbie Sheppard wrote:
There is nobody around whatsoever... I went out, in the early hours of this morning. Not a soul in sight. It's not an attack though. There was no evacuation procedure, no news report signifying ANYTHING; people just... Disappeared!

I'm holed up in Shepards Bush right now, not too far from the BBC Studio's in White City, London. I'm not too sure what the hell is going on, but Claire you said you're from Birmingham? Is, everything okay up that way?!

Hi thanks for the help!

I heard an Aeroplane outside, I'm sure I did!

Ok, it seems Robbie is out there on his own too, maybe we should get him to tie up with Diane and get to the Lif3-house? I know I'd want to be where others were.

EDIT: (SPEC) Then again thinking about it. It's a little strange that Robbie seems to be the only person outwith the Lif3 contestants that's still around. Given that he is a friend of Lance's (who is the only person separate from the others in the mansion), is it possible that Lance and Robbie are the.mast3r, or are at least more than we've been led to believe? If this is the case and we get him to tie up with Diane, we'd be putting her in danger.

I got an email from Dabomstew:

placeholder for lack of a real site.


Rule that puzzle out.
