[speculation]Okay...we're looking for four of something. And two of them come from the same place. So, we're really looking for three things. Taking a wild guess from the spelling clues, I think we're looking for three names of places, one of which has two words (or two parts, or something). There are too many of everything on Jerry's blog except the photos -- maybe the photos are the key? They are buildings... Specifically:
Strangnas Cathedral (Strangnas Domkyrka)
St. Peter's Basilica (Petersdom)
33 Bridge (Siose/33 Pol)

Hmm...I can't get anything out of it. I'm also wondering if there's something in the pictures themselves?

I still think the numbers clues refer to the Freedom for Lune blog. If only I could make the [long string of expletives deleted] work... [/speculation]

I've actually made some head way in the numbers department:

the obvious ones:
20 bees
plan 9
famous 5
west 8
apollo 14


The not so obvious ones:
marker at second 10 of "bad moon rising"
6 chapters on the "truth" article
16 chapters on the "moon" wiki
the space station mission will be "expedition 21"

The only one I can't find a less-than-26 number in is the moonies article.

It's Dutch - I'm getting pretty widely varying translations, but the overall gist is "You light my way in the sky at night"

Claire de lune means Moonlight!

moonlight is the answer (at least one of them) for this clue

ok so just to be clear

city clue = 1

music/claire de lune clue = 2

and anagram = 3?

and one of those 3 also = 4

I think the city clue, the numbers, and the messed up video are all clues.

I also think the messed up video is a double clue.

the music indicates "moonlight" and "i am on a cruel beauty" means something else.

This isn't necessarily contradictory, but I'm thinking maybe:

1) Vimeo "Messed Up" Video
2) Freedom for Lune Blog
3) Jerry's Blog

And then four comes from one of those, too.

ok well the video one i belive we have answered. i belive its "moonlight" base don the dutch hint and the hidden music.


so we should work on jerry's blog (aka the city clue) and the anagram.


wait, could the 2 from 1 mean the anagram and the music both coming from the video?

ok i'm taking one more stab at this

first clue: Jerry's blog a.k.a city clue

second clue: Freedom for lune blog

third and forth clue: the messed up video (part 1: anagram part 2: music)


and the music one i think we have solved. does anyone else think they can clearify it better?

Ok people. Let's think this through:

Based on Jerry's message:

"Four in total is what you seek. One may seem as one but equal two."

Then he lists THREE things:

1. "As buildings are built in the cities of the world they spell out something that we must all earn."

That's the city/building clue in Jerry's blog

2. "There is no pond bigger than the web that connects us all and allows us to communicate through so many mediums."

The pond is a reference to Lindsay Blue's Messed Up video

3. "To some numbers are only numbers, to some they are so much more."

That's a reference to all the numbers on the Freedom blog.

One of those clues is a double clue. I think it's the Messed Up video. The music is one clue, and "I am on a cruel beauty" is the other.

So let's focus on one at a time.

I think the numbers one should be the easiest.

There is a number for every link in the freedom blog (other than jerry's and blue moon which had other clue paths)

The only ones I'm not sure of are:

The moon wiki (there are 16 chapters in the article, but also in the first sentence of the article it says the moon is the 5th largest satellite.)

The moonies article (the significant only number I see in the whole article is in the last sentence and it's spelled--"one")

Everything else has a number
poet 23-->20 bees
luna-->plan 9
beacon-->famous 5
one traveler-->west 8
elinor-->apollo 14
trouble-->marker at second 10
truth article-->broken into 6 parts
Gervase-->expedition 21

did anyone post this before? its a new message from S

"Leaders of men dwell in the Great Cities. Together they spell out that which we must all earn in order to avoid destruction."

so is it the names of the world leaders that we need? or is he just saying we should use the capitol cities where the heads live?

I think we're looking for Lindsay or something related on some other video site -- another medium on the web. It also makes sense with the other comment on the video:
Quote:
That is really messed up. Is any of your work on another video site? What name would it be under?

Solved Jerry's Blog!!!

The Leaders dwell in the great cities ---> Capitals. The capitals of the featured countries are:

Ulan Bator (Mongolia)
Tokyo (Japan)
Tehran (Iran)
Rome (Italy)
Stockholm (Sweden)

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Anagram the first letters: TRUST -- something we must all earn.


Now if only I had some idea what to do with it! Smile
