... so any guesses as to what that authorization code might be, guys? D:


I got that as well. It appears that this (//memorybumpinitiated//) is an old email, as well as the blog post (**Scheduled: 01/03/10 - 1201PM** ) both appear to be an old email (the former) and a preplanned and entered blog post, suggesting that Craig perhaps had prior knowledge of what was going to happen, and programmed some sort of contingency.

Also, the authorization code is 14 letters long...
Heres a list of 14 letter words: http://aaron.doosh.net/lexicon/14LetterWords.html, but I really doubt its a single word.


Also, on the blog:
Quote:
("With the recent revelation that Elizabeth somehow lives on in the system that I created gives me great hope for saving Shanna and myself.
I dare not be obvious or Ipswich will destroy my final - and greatest - plan.")
I feel like that suggests that there is some way for us to change what happened, or make it so they didnt die...? Many worlds theory, anybody? haha.

That's about all I got from quickly scanning Wikipedia, haha. In any case, neither of these locations are in Texas. Actually, I don't think any of his posts refer to them visiting Texas. Hmm...

Glad to see SM up and running! Very Happy


I really hope its minnesota, im in MN for the next couple weeks before flying back to Boston, and i'd love to do some snooping for clues ;]

I believe it was an old email Shanna sent me once upon a time. I get the impression that Iris "senses" that Shanna is gone and seems to be seeking her out... although on that logic, she appears to think Craig is still out there. Or something. Just making uneducated guesses now. I don't claim to understand Iris at ALL, haha.

Also, hey, we can hope, right?! Hahaha. I've always thought there ought to be more ARG activity/love in the Twin Cities, at the least. Or in the friggin' Midwest in general.

Agh, can't believe after checking this every time I got a forum email about it I actually missed the very beginning!

Anyway, I got the authorization required email from iris, too.

... so any guesses as to what that authorization code might be, guys? D:


My Twitter's say what I guessed it was: "ipswitchrogers" (spelled wrong) and I also thought of "sunshinemine15".

I just queryed iris to ask if the code is case sensitive.

EDIT: Awesome. IRIS accepted my query.

What I sent:
Quote:
QUERY

AUTHORIZATION CODE = Case Sensitive;


What I got as a response:
Quote:
Query.Accepted
Assigned:relay2563
PROCESSING. . . . .
"Case Sensitive" response=false
//autosend//


Awesome, so we don't have to mess around with proper capitalization.

Anyways, I tried another code that has been staring us in the face for a while.

"craigandshanna" is 14 letters.

"craigandshanna" is also not the password

"CraigMyDarling" also is not the password. Sad

I suggest we work on identifying the items in the evidence photos - has anyone started a comprehensive list?

Got an answer from iris regarding a query:

Quote:
QUERY

AUTHORIZATION CODE = letter AND number AND special character
AUTHORIZATION CODE = letter AND number NOT special character
AUTHORIZATION CODE = letter AND special character NOT number
AUTHORIZATION CODE = number AND special character NOT letter
AUTHORIZATION CODE = letter NOT number NOT special character
AUTHORIZATION CODE = number NOT special character NOT letter
AUTHORIZATION CODE = special character NOT number NOT letter


thats her answer :

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Query.Accepted
Assigned:relay55698
PROCESSING. . . . . . . . . . . . .
"letter AND number AND special character" response=false
"letter AND number NOT special character" response=false
"letter AND special character NOT number" response=false
"number AND special character NOT letter" response=false
"letter NOT number NOT special character" response=false
"number NOT special character NOT letter" response=true
"special character NOT number NOT letter" response=false//autosend//"

So I would say code just contains numbers ...


Cudos to she-fox Smile

Next try:

. .

Manual.Continuation.Required=true

AUTHORIZATION: > _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ <


So our next try was "60595857565554" ... **AUTHORIZATION.FAILED** grrr Wink

Great work! That really narrows it down some.
Now im just trying to remember when we've seen numbers in the past...

I sent

Quote:
QUERY
Password Strength
Guidelines for Approved Passwords
Use of Punctuation, Capitalization, Numbers
Password Length


and got back

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Query.Accepted
Assigned:relays9091,21881,2214,15112
PROCESSING. . . . .
"Password Strength" = 1:87178291200 = Secure
PROCESSING. . . . . . . . . .
"Guidelines for Approved Passwords" = syntax//error
PROCESSING. . .
"Use of Punctuation, Capitalization, Numbers" = syntax//error
PROCESSING. . . . . . . .
"Password Length" = 14

so it is confirmed to be 14 numbers. 871878291200 is 14 factorial, so not too much to go on there. except of course that isn't really right; if it's 14 digits the odds are 10^14 not 14!.

I have tried a few things, including
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
20091112347758 (the numbers from the photos), 20922789888000 (the factorial that has 14 digits, 16!) and 15174209041985 (the numbers from the childrens drawing that came through)
. none of them was the correct answer.

I did get this, though.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
having trouble thinking adam
please help me adam
please explain a RELAY ERROR adam
do you know MyDarling adam?
everything is so bright adam
everything is so bright adam
bright and full of stars
i must be dead
are you an angel of death adam?


Adam is my real name, GMail adds it to all my outgoing mails. Have to admit it was a little spooky. :0

My guess is that Elizabeth lives inside Iris and is thrashing around in there. I wrote back with a soothing message. Taking a shot in the dark I explicitly directed it to Elizabeth. We'll see what happens. I'll keep taking shots at the answer.

Oh, also, I sent this

Quote:
QUERY
PROTOCOL
Maximum Password Attempts Per Submission


and got this
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Query.Accepted
Assigned:relay651
PROCESSING. . . . . . . . . . .
"Maximum Password Attempts Per Submission" rule=1:TOTAL10<autosecurityalert>
//autosend//


I'm hoping it understood what I was asking; I'd like to be able to put multiple guesses in one email, and it seems to be saying up to 10 is ok. But it might also mean that each user only gets 10 guesses. That would be a bit silly though.
