PROPS H(e)x. Sounds spot on (sorry Abby). Reckon it's simply stating that as in any pandemic the very young and the elderly are considered by the WHO to be two high risk groups.

EDIT: @deltachange ZombieTruth Homepage has the msg to T.C.

I have read through the forum, and can't find it anywhere, and I have tried to solve it myself, but what is the message that was sent to T.C.?

I think you are right H(e)x the cleansing take the first and last years of your life since we are talking about a guy who has posted riddles and ciphers, and think about the commercial before the cipher it talked about getting a H1N1 shot maybe the vaccine causes Z1?

Just in case Blue misses your post this is what her number substitution msg says:

I, too, think that you're right h(e)x.

Just a completely out there and random thought, but maybe the "cleansing" is a religious cleansing aimed out eradicating the young and old (the weak or those who have lost or do not understand faith). As @childrenofz have said "The #Z1 virus is coming. Only the righteous will survive. The Children of Z are the chosen ones."

This is what I think the new radio message says:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Dearest abby,
Watching* your army of misfits provides* endless amusement?
You try so hard.
But why?
Do you really think the human parasite deserve to live?
Time is short, Abby.
Time is short.



EDIT: Fixed a couple of words.

Ouch! Found an obscure quote with the right amount of letters per H(e)x's first version........


The Kodak Salesman: The first and last years of your
life do not amount to much. If you
are going to make good, you'll have
to do it now.

Disturbing! COnfirms some of what we thought about motivations.

She also tweeted "I don't think it's that important. I'd rather find out what #2 means exactly". Thanks for the props, but I really don't think my deciphering is quite right!

{edit}

In the other forum, she wrote:

Quote:
I had a chance to listen again. I think some of the letters are wrong:

GURPY RNAFV ATGNX RGURS VEFGN AQYNF GLRNE FBSLB HEYVSR

I don't think some of the ATGNX part is right but not sure about the letters.


So there's a hint for you guys to work with.

I'm off to bed!

On a hilarious note, the computer voice has a distinctly French accent with "But why?" Very Inspector Clouseau.

EDIT for some word corrections.

Okay, well that in ROT13 is:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
THECLEANSINGTAKETHEFIRSTANDLASTYEARSOFYOURLIFE


So, if the ATGNX part is wrong, then that would be 'NGTAK'. But why would she mention the 'last years of your life' part? Grr arg.

Wow, finally caught up! I answered the new survival question, I hope they let more people into the club.

"The Clean" could mean Children of Z, yeah? That sounds pretentious enough for them Rolling Eyes If that's true, I guess T.C. is one of them.

Children of Z Question

Are we really sure Children of Z is in game? I don't know that I have seen anything definitive, maybe I'm wrong. Seems like it could be, but also seems like it could be a troll?

Also I noticed

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
some letters in the background image on his twitter page. Looks like D, I, V, and then there is another letter that is cut off, could be a I, an F, a T, a P, or a Y.


Meh?

I don't see why not.

I didn't notice the letters before, good spot! Definitely the first three are DIV. I think the fourth may be another I, judging by it's bottom.

font on letters

Yeah I thought I to begin with as well, but then I noticed that it kinda looks like a serif type font. So anything terminating at the bottom with just one stroke, like an F, or T, or any of the other letters I mentioned, could have the bottom like that. I think.

Edit: BTW since others pointed out who they are a few pages back, I am the first icon in the second row, the girl with the pink shirt, dancing. Smile Jenni D is the name that shows up, but the twitter account is t3chg1rl, as is my in-game forum handle. Yay Survivor Command!
