Still confused!

[Kilination]

The ARG is called Intimation. I was trying to make a joke because of how many times we have seen that same drawing of a scorpion, both on the SCORPIO page and the path that S had us follow on the maze page.

Anyways, I'm going to go ahead and focus on the other random questions because of how stupid the Mendicant Bias one is.

EDIT 1: I can't seem to find any other questions...
Pathway XCGCFAKZTIERTICCTU leads to one of the old paint drawings.

EDIT 2: Pathway XCEVIOJZEJPYSYZL leads to the data disruption.

krystyn, it is confusing, compounded with an apparent delay in the /Q7J8R04J87FFJ983Q2 page being updated. But it seems to be working now.
Step-by-step:
* Those who have done a gpsmission got a message from Essy to start on http://thewaytheirworldended.com/A-SECRET-MAZE/
* Click through to http://thewaytheirworldended.com/Q7J8R04J87FFJ983Q2/
This has a series of two letter links that navigate through this secret maze and lead to trivia questions that, once answered, give new pieces to the puzzle story. As I understand it, this is an alternate way for us to find the pieces that were meant to be found in the gps missions.
* There are 59 of these pieces to be found, but I don't know if that includes the ones that have already been found in the gps missions, or if there are 59 pieces to be found in this secret maze.

Example:
Start at http://thewaytheirworldended.com/Q7J8R04J87FFJ983Q2/
click these pairs of letters..

Which (I hope) lead to

Since I'm bored as well, got another one at ">NAVHIST:PATH//ZUKSMTVUDMTXQEJTMXVL" which was "343 Guilty Spark" which was This one.

Now I wish I'd logged in before

EDIT: May as well put in the direct links before I forget them:

What ingredient did Kamal replace with ketchup?

[highwind767]

[krystyn]

Omigosh, thanks, drizjr!

I do so much better when puzzle solve posts include 'showing your work' as part of the post. It makes it so much better for the rest of us who either come in late, or don't have the knowledge to do parts of a puzzle. We can still contribute in other ways, though, so it's super-nice to get an overview.

Thanks again.

Yup, I'd say each time one gets solved a new one opens. I'd recommend this to you Drizjr if you get stumped on any: http://halo.wikia.com
Handy for the ones asking exact figures
