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 agree, especially since he also sent

There is definitely something missing. An additive, used mostly in digital: could he mean ".jpg" or something similar?

I was just reading "Tan" and hatshoe mentioned Cartoon Face Syndrome. I googled CFS and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. Perhaps in terms of what his potential ailment could be, it could be that. It could also be a clue of sorts, as there are other posts of his that mention sleeping.

I send "chatty" emails to HS to try to gain his trust and become a better friend to him. I told him once I was worried because it doesn't seem like he gets much sleep and he replied:

Sleep is exuberantly evasive.


I got the feeling he doesn't mind not sleeping much.

I have a fever of 102, so I dont know if I am delerious but could someone print out the internet page and try connecting the dots in hatshoe at the top? He didn't do them the normal way, like a gift store does, so I wonder if there is something there. As I said, I am also rather floaty and delerious atm. Thank you someone for humouring me.

You mean the main page? I think the whole thing is supposed to be a shoe with a hat on it. To humor you, because I know how much it sucks to be sick, I'll try to print screen and play connect the dots in Gimp Wink

Ah, gotcha. Maybe I have a case of the delirious myself lol. I even connected the dots on the main page and thought, "Uh, it's a hat/shoe. Hatshoe." LULZ. I'll check it out for ya.

Looks like Braille.

I don't think it is. Closest translation I could get is HHKAHALA. If I connect the dots, I don't seem tp get anything sensical either.

Well early on we did some work on the source code of the original layout as a possible clue. And I have looked at the words etc trying to find the mystical "code within a code" so I don't want run this into the ground however my untrained eye(s)noticed that for some of the pages in the source code there are ALOT of coordinates.

For example, xcom has 8 coordinate numbers and new scanner right next to it in the relative same positon has 13 numbers. Favourite thing has 16 numbers associated with its location.

Does seem right to those that do coding?

There is nothing weird about having that many numbers. Each of those link areas is defined as a polygon on the image map, so the more numbers, the more vertices in the polygon. The numbers are the {x,y} positions of the vertices. Given the curvature of some of those links, it's not surprising HS has to make odd-shaped map regions.

Hey. I havnt been on here yet but i have been looking at Hatshoe for a while and think i have found a couple things.
Latest comments are about the Message found in "Mark"
Im not sure if im right but its a fresh idea i dont think you have came up with.

Additive is a digital photography term, relating to the 3 Primary colours.
What are the primary colours missing?
Light.

So in my thoughts, the answer is light.

Feel free to disagree...
Still reading through this forum so i dont actually know if you have already disregarded the idea Very Happy Lmao.

I just received a new email. For those who don't want to scroll back, I said "Message received, friend, though not translated quite yet. There are, after all, many mistakes to choose from." His response:

I think we need to focus on what we already know. Maybe go through the wiki and the forum thread and make a list of all the clues we've come up with so far. All his other hints have been pretty simple, so I don't think we have to look very hard. I just think it's a matter of putting the pieces together.

I received an email, too, in regards to being unable to figure out the @live information:

Perhaps someone out there is not sharing.
Still, it must be left if enough time passes.

I realize now that we have never actually spoken. We once shared a mutual nodding of heads, that was special.

I have the answer. I am sorry I took so long to share it, but my fever reached 103.9 last night, so I was kind of busy in an ice bath etc. This is the email I received from HA last night. The image reminds me of a time card almost.

It is the names of the pages that have errors, I believe.
