Not that I've been terribly helpful today, but there's an email right there with the clue. Possibly email the answer to that?

I tried that when Nyst mentioned it. No response yet.


Well, I suck. Sorry. I was always better at taking pictures and social engineering my way into places I shouldn't be then figuring out clues. Smile

My last DM to intimation also got "NTCP NOT FOUND", so I assume that means hibernation has started.

All I really managed to get out of intimation was that "S" was the AI aboard a ship called "Lewis & Clark", commanded by Dr. Pandora Sheridan. Which is probably trout if I remember what I read on the website correctly.

Stupid graduate school and work, getting in the way of ARG time. Razz

It is indeed trout, but that's okay, every little helps, and another pair of eyeballs is always good.

The DM means that hibernation has started, but we still have to find the "Control point" for this "tentacle", and all we have to work with is "Arcturus" and "Bootes". Which sucks.

I've noticed that if a directory exists you get redirected to 404.php, but if it doesn't, you stay in place.

So, for example:

http://www.thewaytheirworldended.com/IveGotALuverleyBunchOfCoconuts

Will stay as-is. But:

http://www.thewaytheirworldended.com/SYS

Will redirect you to:

http://www.thewaytheirworldended.com/404.php

I know this doesn't help us much (NOB RUTEFO RCING!) but it is something...

Not that I have any idea where to go from here.

I'm looking for users / topics relating to Arcturus Bootes...

EDIT: Found it...

I just notice Astronomy.com when trying to get my friend up to speed on where we were.

http://cs.astronomy.com/asycs/forums/p/38740/409984.aspx#409984
The only post made by the account. Doesn't look like much.

What's up with the avatar? Anyway,

Yeah, I don't know where the avatar is from. It is not a common Halo-related site like the last one... so alas, I am of little help in that regard Sad

The riddle is, of course, back to the story of the two sisters. They prayed to Kluskap who told them not to look back, but the younger one did. And became flame (shooting star). There's no mention of a tree in the story though...

This story, it's a bit long, but I think it's the one we want.

http://www.firstpeople.us/FP-Html-Legends/Mikmaq_Women_Who_Married_Star_Husbands_Child-Micmac.html

The Star With Sore Eyes was Younger sister's husband, and she didn't listen to him twice.
As they were returning to earth she got up to soon and they got stuck in a tree on the way down.
I think this is the answer. And now where to put it...

Edit: Is there any significance to "This looks like a great place!" Possibly meaning that this forum could be the end of our search?

Good call, Nyst. I imagine now we have to decipher that avatar's origin...

Knew I'd seen that somewhere before:

So, we need the code...

I think that's more to avoid the problems we had at HBO - Forums typically don't show users with 0 posts. I could be wrong, however.

I think you're right. It was just to make it more obvious.

So now we have to find her on the (infuriatingly case-sensitive) TWTWE site. Le Sigh.
