 		The big question is, does capital(s) mean
    1. Letters
    2. Cities
    3. Money

There are so many definitions for capital.

And what about "Did you count?"

New twitter from E.Y.E.:

Which key has he given us?


Exactly my thoughts. Not sure about the other keys... on the Pharmament side I don't think we currently had any unexplained puzzle/hint...

As far as multiple uppercase/capital letters, I was trying to use thos ein the post title and intro from Dave on Gunspiracy, e.g.:
Quote:

E.Y.E. has contacted me...
He asked me to share the following words with you...

Would yield EYEH
But I haven't got to anything following that line...

I didn't spot any capital punishment, capital offense, or other type of 'capitals' in the list of words either... at least nothing jumped at me (some thing slike 'destruction' or 'conspiracy' could be capital offenses?)

Thanks to Olorin for new info, the wiki has been updated accordingly

Thanks for updating it - I got caught in trying to find an answer and didn't update TSO Wiki (Pharmament Wiki got updated as far as the early twitter)

I got to run out for a while - imagine by the time I'll be back you guys will have found the other key(s)

Seems like your caps lock key is stuck. Wink

And like E.Y.E. said, we should focus on the words. I am pretty sure, that ones we have found the mistery of the words we have the password for the eyeamhere page which probably will lead to the letter.

What could be that key he has given us, which we have not used, yet?

 		What if the PL in PL/noletters.png stands for Pharmament Letter
Maybe we need to dig in other places.

 		OK, new speculation. I assume that we have to find one letter from each of the words he has given us.

There might be a pattern (related to counting), which we have to find:

hAve 2nd letter
yOu 2nd letter
foUnd 3rd letter
The 1st letter
caPitals 3rd letter
iN 2nd letter
tHe 3rd letter
worDs 4th letter
thaT 4th letter
eYe 2nd letter
gaVe 3rd letter
yoU 3rd letter

Does anyone see a pattern?

 		Puzzling
Maybe we should see where we have seen the words before, and which had capitals then.

 		26
Preceded by 25 (5 squared)

Followed by 27 (3 cubed)

 		alphabetical
why is alternate the only one out of alphabetical order?

so now that we've established 26 is important, what next? ive tried laboratory (the codex means 26 = l) and ive tried it encoded, and ove tried 26 encoded... I've tried many things. Any ideas?

 		alternate isn't the only one out of order - it could also be conspiracy that is out of order, and destruction comes after encode in the next message.

from the various clues and twitters, i am assuming that we need to identify one letter in each of the 26 words that should be a capital - and that the Y in eYe is what E.Y.E. is referring to as the key. if we could figure out why that letter is selected it may give us a clue to the others.

if that is the correct solution to the puzzle then the number of possibilities is very, very high and so we aren't going to guess, or brute force an answer. it's also unclear whether the 26 letters form a word (unlikely) phrase, or quote (as many of the puzzles have had a literary bent so far).

of course, all of that conjecture might be wron g, but it is what i will be working on for now. anyone else going along any other route?
