Box = Hell.

The rollover on the login box on the babel-research.eu says "Box = ????".
Typing hell into the login box gives you a download of X.mp3.

It's another backwards one (and I can't unbackwards it at work Sad ) sounds like there are 3 distinct voices. One sounds similar to the Combine voices used on the original vid.


~Phyre


(edited - spelling... and unbackwards is a word now.)

x.mp3
reversed

I reverse this file. First sound is a voice of Combines from HL2 and says that security failed. Second voice is some strange sound, it's not any word. Third is a women voice, but i can't understand what it says.

Managed to get it reversed at work.. it sounds like:

Man: "Ground(?) has been secured."
Combine: "Roger That."
Woman: "Tango."

I agree with you Phyrehawk but i think the first word starts with a B... Try to play it 50% slower.

I've checked the names on babel-research, but none seems to match...

There's the evil saga again: if you enter "hell", then there's a snippet in the source sode that opens the x.mp3 and includes the palindrom:

Quote:
<script>
// NOEVILSAGASLIVEON
window.open('snd/X.mp3');
</script>

I think the first word starts with P. Proud?

Ah-HA!

Check the origin vid - timestamp 4.18 when he used the 59462 number to check the status of... whatever they are. One of them is called "Brout"!

"Brout has been secured."

---ETA---
The other two if anyone is interested is "Higgs" and "Englert"? maybe?

And a quick search of "Higgs" on wikipedia brings up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higgs_mechanism - apparently one of it's names is "Brout–Englert–Higgs mechanism".

The theory is kinda over my head but... it's a lead. =]

I think this has been mentioned earlier on, but as the names reappear here:
check also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fran%C3%A7ois_Englert for info about what englert, brout and higgs have done.

Actually, they've won two prizes together:
- the "High energy and particle physics Prize" in 1997
- Wolf Prize in Physics in 2004

...and maybe some more until 2018 Wink
