Update:

Lisa posted a new blog. She posted the email I sent to here and she lurked a little bit on the DC site.

And... what is your opinion about "The Fox", "Beale", "Lancaster", "Milvian", "Brutalius", "Kricket", "Vesper", "King Kahn", "El-ahrairah".

Are these IG characters (they all know low key) or are they players from another community (have not found anything on google)?

Hmm, is it a coincidence that in the diningroombasement, when Annie (presumably) and Kazic were speaking:
Quote:
Kazic: Who are you?
littleoakley: Hey called himself The Low Key. Then he called me Little Miss Oakley


The Low Key? Is this some sort of common nickname that I've missed out on?

(I know this is a pretty flimsy link, but Ive just watched the entire season so far of Fringe and my brain is in EVERYTHING IS A CLUE mode.)

I didn't see the old page when it existed, but there is still a copy in the Google cache:

http://209.85.129.132/search?q=cache:0X6hqIWZ2SIJ:cinemanovel.startlogic.com/wwitc/%3Fcat%3D5+%22anios+corporation%22

On the first page:

LowKey
# About Me
# .com VS .org
If you came here looking for LISA you are looking for WHOWASINTHECAR.ORG

She's trying to figure out what happened to her dude, so, if you can help her out, do it.

On the second page (About Me):

About

Yo, my name is LowKey. Well, I suppose a more accurate introduction would have been, Yo, I'm LowKey, because the name on my driver's license is not LowKey, but my position in the company definitely is.

Job description: create and maintain the Anios Corporation Company Newsletter, The Daily Muse.

Reality: Nobody has a clue what I do. I get paid, eight hours a day, no supervisor, no real schedule, no problem. To be honest, I haven't done much of anything for the last year. I surfed the internet, wrote a shitty novel, played a lot of pranks on the suits upstairs, but not much in the way of work.

Oh, yeah. You might wonder, why would this LowKey be stupid enough to say they do nothing? Guilt, I suppose. I suppose guilt is what finally made me put up this website. Nobody asked me to do it, but I've spent so many years doing nothing without supervision for decent pay, that, well, I decided to give a little something back.

I'm a low level (but I feel, key) employee at Anios Corporation.

I lifted the script from the Ennead avatar, then scaled it onto the other image as an example. I got the example from here though (this is an HTML version): Click the link at the top for non HTML .doc version

My gut feeling is that they are IGC's. I have a few reasons why I think that, -but I also think it is pretty weird & I'm not certain Wink

@FractalIp: To me "lowkey" is a Double entendre, not common, but not really uncommon either. I catch you though. I'm always on everything is a clue mode Wink

Flickr Photo

Had a closer look at the Flickr Photos of Lisa. Somebody is watching here. Since we probably have overlooked this on the first phote (IMOPG2395), she uploaded a new set, where the perosn is easier to detect (lisaducks).

Who is it?

ETA:
Update on DC. New password protected post:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

password = anios


I am confused. Lowkey has "twinned" the worlds. Which worlds?

Hello themilkman & FractalP! Very Happy

@FractalIP I saw the name "Low Key" in diningroombasement, too. But I couldn't find anything else that these threads have in common, so at least for now, I think of them as separate games.

I overlooked that tiny figure until you mentioned it! Smile I think the time-line is worth noting: Lisa's first picture was uploaded on March 1st, she started the youtube blog on March 17th and Michael was kidnapped on April 9th, so she's been followed before that - maybe since she and Michael have applied at historianova?
lowkey's mail to you is indeed strange. Feels like someone lost his grip on the curtain. Perhaps the PM needs a friendly reminder that uF is supposed to be completely out of game?

Doesn't work for me (Firefox on an Ubuntu machine). Will try it again tomorrow when I have access to Internet Explorer... Sad

RE the people on the DC forum: I think they're IG. They are really nice so far, but their answers are too cryptic for real world people, don't you think?

Thanks for the wiki AUZ! You've been really busy over there. I've never worked on a wiki before and I'll have a lot of reading to do in order to find out how it works, but I'll try, in case you want some help.

RE youtube: I noticed that the video of Michael's kidnapping is uploaded under his own account michaelthebigsee, too. The title is "With my compliments" and the description says:
Quote:
If I can post this here, what do you think they can do?

Looks like somebody hacked his account; my guess is Beale from DC, since his name appears in the tag list.

That's it Smile

ETA:
Contacted the "Birds of Hawaii", where Michael booked the honeymoon package. That is the (auto-)reply:

Quote:

Birds of Hawaii

Aloha!

We thank you for your interest in the BIRDS OF HAWAII honeymoon
package! In contacting us, you've taken your first step on the path
towards a carefree and relaxing honeymoon vacation. Wait, did we say
path? Instead, imagine an endless strand of white sand upon which you
and your loved one can stroll in blissful reminiscence of the enduring
love that guided you to such a perfect moment.

Hear the waves lap against the shore, see the first stars glimmer in
the evening sky, and let the breathtaking song of the BIRDS OF HAWAII
lull you into peaceful reverie.

Our services include a variety of resort packages to suit your
particular needs. Want to gaze upon lush mountains from your hotel
window? We can put you at the very foot of majestic Mauna Loa! Or
perhaps a vast, sapphire sea is more to your liking? Let us perch you
on the gorgeous Na Pali coast where you can behold the pacific in all
its glory! Look carefully, and you might even catch a glimpse of
distant Japan!

Sound good? Well, it gets better! Let BIRDS OF HAWAII wing you away
with style! Your vacation of a lifetime begins with complimentary
pick-up service right from your front door! Forget the hassle of
airport parking—let us do the work while you relax in one of our
luxury vehicles. Just pack your bags and off you go. Just don't
forget your swimsuit!

Though registration for the current season is full, a new season is
just around the corner, and we dearly hope your will keep us in mind
for that most special of occasions—the fledgling days of your new life
with the one you love.

A hui hou!

Sincerely, BIRDS OF HAWAII


Nothing that seems important

Two more emails from "Birds of Hawaii":

Quote:

La Crosse Parking.


and five minutes later
Quote:

Greetings from Birds of Hawaii,

Thank you for your interest.

We will be in touch with more information concerning your honeymoon and what we can do to make it one of the most memorable nights of your life.

Jenny

PS: Our reservation system is a little messed up at the moment, so please bear with us as we get back on track. Please ignore (and immediately delete) any "rogue" messages from birdsofhawaii. We're just ironing out the kinks. Thanks for your understanding.


both from Jenny Oaks (birdsofhawaiiSPLATgmail.com)

Two new blog-entries from Lisa.

Among other things she's been contacted and invited by Birds of Hawaii for a consultation in Vancouver. And:
Lisa wrote:
I think they have a website/blog of some kind, if I remember correctly. I'll try and dig up the address.


She remembers correctly: http://birdsofhawaii.wordpress.com/

Discoveries there - so far:
    The friends category has an entry named "Beautific Healing" that links to historianova.com
    The category "JENNY OAKS" has a password protected post titled "The Next One"
    The palm-picture's filename is "jamaica-small-1.jpg" Very Happy


EDIT:
I think these are the original pictures:
honeymoon-suite.jpg
jamaica-small-1.jpg

The jamaica-pic has the same size as the original one, but the honeymoon-suite.jpg is smaller (490 x 367 px instead 550 x 412 px of the original one) and its filesize is larger: 118 KB instead of 32,1KB. However, stegdetect claims that it's not stegged. Dunno

New blog from Lisa:

She says that she got a strange email from Birds of Hawaii:
Quote:

La Crosse, parking


The same I received, but mine was without coma.

I assume that is some hint for the password. But no idea what to do with it. La Crosse is a city in Wisconsin. Guess we have to do some internet searches.

New vid uploaded to Lisa's BLOG & YOUTUBE .

I Think its Michael locked in a room. I can also hear some Morse in the background of the audio starting around mark 00:24. - I don't know what it says though (& cant check -at work right now)...

Btw, if you are listening to the morse, get ready to lose your mind with Michael talking Twisted Evil -I listened to it like 10 times in a row & wanted to jump in front of a moving vehicle.

Nice catch on the morse.

Tried to decode, but each time Michael speaks I get lost.

What I got so far:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The Building .... but somebody...


Tried to make the morse a little bit clearer. Also made a much slower version which helps to hear long and short beeps.

Hello gang. New to this forum, but not entirely new to the ARG concept. (I played The Lost Experience, and the subsequent disappointing ARGs )

I haven't been able to figure out any of the passwords to the protected posts on diocletianscourt.com. Are we supposed to know this and I am just LOST Wink or are we all in the same boat?

ETA: ok, I got the password for the newest post, but not the first one "Somewhere to begin"

Maybe my brain is on vacation today. Embarassed
