Well, I emailed him, referencing the two words he sort of emphasized on the omegle chat.

[isthatcodeworthit?]

I've been lurking for a while but haven't contributed. WoC latest tweet was that it was illegal to put tires with chains on their car or something like that. This confirms for sure that Hatshoe is in Canada, and most likely where I am, Ottawa (or somewhere around there), as we just had our first big snowfall and suddenly we get a tweet about putting special snow tires on. This is only speculation of course, but it would be cool if Hatshoe was here.

[isthatcodeevenworthit?]

another random thought. One of the pages points at the holes and asks why there's white inside when the outside is black. if you change it to .jpg instead of .html the background is white. Maybe thee's something we need to see looking at the pages in .jpg format?

[PerdíElJuego]

I think it means that there's a mistake in one of his pages that is more than one word. And there are no spaces in the answer and it has a file extension of .jpg.

Initially I thought it could be something involving Kurt Cobain. But I tried a ton of things like kurtcobain.jpg and kurdtcobain.jpg and kurtcobaine.jpg and kurdtcobaine.jpg and that didn't work so I dunno where to go from here.

I received an email from our man, indicating that we're on the right track with the email address. To add to my list of not-live.com-accounts: kurdtcobain, kurdtcobaine, kurtcobain. I tried those earlier, based on one of the source code clues. I really thing this email address thing isn't from one of the more recent hints/clues. He's indicated a few days ago that we already have all the clues we need to figure it out. I'll keep playing around with what we have.

[Edit]: Looking at the "Notes" page, I tried adjusting the brightness and contrast. It looks like there might be something there, since the note says

Also you pressed to hard when you wrote before and now I can see those words showing up on this page.

There looks like there's something there, but I'm not sure what it is.

Miss me? I bet you didn't even know I was gone. I had to go and make sure Vegas had plenty of money to keep the lights on.

So a lot happened while I was drinkin' and gamblin' and yet here we are seemingly no closer to a clue as what we are doing even after a convo with the guy. Except that Hatshoe is in the future and wants to change something now so he doesn't die in 3 years a la Flash Forward. That whole temporal time travel thing.

Some things I see after a few days off:

The Third Unseen has a twitter posting referencing part 32 of a Walt Whitman poem. An interesting read and you can see the reference does seem to fit in a weird long poem sort of way.

Interesting idea on us being Carl seems logical especially with the email talking about wearing boots that make the reader look daper. I still need a program as to who is who but that's just me ranting.

For those of leaning toward the grunge, Cobain's middle name is Donald which could be one of the "three missing" (I don't think so) but it is a D as mentioned. There is also a reference to an additive mostly used for digital. TAG is the only thing that comes to my mind

I like the snow chains input from isthatcode. First thing I thought of was I wonder where they are illegal. Unfortuantely the where doesn't really gives us any of the other "w's" but good to know anyway.

I sent an email to sheogorathSPLATlive.com and have received no bounce back after 30 minutes unfortunately if it is correct I don't know what to do from there.

Also there was a clue early in the pedagogue email that speaks of entering what you find after adopting the way the pedagogue.

Pretty much got confirmation that Hatshoe has at least heard of the chans.

[whitecross8]

Aw shucks, thanks... and yes I meant 42. I don't however know what (the) chans are?

[Zagaan]

The chans are image boards. 4chan being one of the most notable. We have people that are following Hatshoe(although inconsistently) via 4chan's /x/ board. Which of course is occasionally overrun by the /b/ board. Which is why a lot of us had trouble finding Hatshoe on omegle in my opinion.

Me to HS:

[SunnyD]

hello guys
just some thoughts here
i think that we are on the right track with the kurt cobaine/nirvana references
honestly i think that the live.ca adress doesnt have anything to do with colors... though that was my first thought, and when i googled additives, it came up with the RGB color additives.

i mean look at the way that our hint is phrased
Splatlive.com
and to enter, use the missing of the three. (end of sentence)
Additive(as in extra), mostly used in digital.

i think that when HS says additive, he means in addition...

i was thinking that he might be talking about nirvana as a band, because technically they only had 3 members all throughout. Kurt Cobaine, Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic.
it might have something to do with novoselic because he was the bass player... and i figure bass is the largest component in digital music... though i might just be looking at this puzzle from a musicians point of view.
