Although, on puzzles, has anyone had a think about the InactiveWear commercial? I feel like with all that number stuff happening then there ought to be a secret in there, but I haven't been able to get a handle on it. Maybe it's just a (very funny) red herring.

You get prices if you click on the links for the t-shirts (name or image); they're all $16.99 or $17.99 -- click to buy them and you get to CafePress.

While the numbers are O11iver's phone, I think something funky might be going on -- partly from the sheer weirdness, and partly because

More things I'm wondering about with the video:

I'm back from my "short" ARG break for this one...probably.

Ok...we are probably waiting for the date to happen, I don't know. Anyways, I played around a little bit with the MBILF site. A couple sites that either don't exist (yet) or exhibit strange behavior:

http://www.mbilf.biz/members.html
A nicer login window for...what? The admin site? Our known u/p does not work. It's probably just the member login broken, because it's not supposed to be accessed that way.
I am barely awake enough - not to mention out-of-practice - right now to be sure, but maybe this is interesting or maybe it's a generic code snippet:

Given that both phone numbers work, I'd be surprised if they encode anything in themselves (unless there's a way to pick your phone numbers?) -- but I'm sure that at least something is going on with the phone number and that video.

I got an e-mail from Tim that drops in "we dial a 1 before our numbers here for country code sometimes" (I didn't ask him about that; just mentioned it here), which explains my question, and feels like it's either a hint or telling me I'm on the wrong track -- but I don't know which!

Other things from my correspondence with Tim and O11iver
- Both of them encourage me to call and make videos; it looks like they're keen to develop the plot that way. Am tempted to rack up a phone bill just to do it! I don't have a cam; can anyone who's made a video tell us if it's led anywhere yet?
- O11iver mentioned that sales have been low on inactivewear. That might be a hint. Again, tempted to splash out and buy a shirt to see what happens but need a bit more motivation. Anyone bought one? Also, does anyone know how CafePress works -- will Tim and O11iver be mailing the shirts, or does it come from the site?
- Getting nowhere on the online chat thing, but am hoping I can keep pushing it just because of the expensive phone call thing.

I'm never going to get any work done . . .

011iver's twitter name is "011iver 6811779". The number could represent a model number or is more significant? Wonder if Rowan can sneak in a question about this on their date?

Chuck posted a new video on her tweet:

A response to the dating tips. Something tasty for the picnic, hehe.

Well that video certainly had an unexpected opening! Laughing

I really enjoyed the cooking video at the end. Smile

And,sadly, o11ver's Flickr is still empty except for an email which is different from the "inactive wear" one:

I'm just happy I managed to work broccoli into the story. Finally one game has hit my long-standing uF profile trifecta of 'interests'!

discussion about the JS used for the admin login

It's the previous version of that script. Some people complaining you can easily read out the pw. I can't see how. You think we are supposed to do that?

After finding the link hidden in lugnut's last video I sent him a message asking what he was trying to tell us, and whether or not we could help. Today I got a response. It was in binary- and when decoded, it was in 1337, which when decoded said:

Just realised there was an avenue that, as far as I know, hasn't been explored yet, so I got together H(e)x's sweet little body, had a photoshoot with rocket lamp, and sent some images to adminSPLATMbilf.biz, like it suggests on the pictures page. Check it:

Will make a video for O11iver tomorrow, if my name hasn't been sullied across the internet . . .
