Sigh...

The answer from Kevin wasn't illuminating. I'm running dry on ideas for Paul's password.

I played with the audio, but it looks like a 200Hz signal mixed with two sweeps: 300Hz - 800Hz, and one 800Hz - 300Hz. Plus a wide-band tremelo.

...ishimisho employee picture

Hi all! Haven't been here in a while. Haven't really followed any ARGs recently.

I just received this odd email though and it seems like it could be something. I did a UF search for some of the words and nothing came up. What I can make out is:

...isimisho employee!
(strat?) agem
y is
(ga?) mbit
Access codes below yours in order of privilege are
Dovecote
Common


Then there is a flowchart with what appears to be RN or RoN, AzMec., and STP. The note is smudged and difficult to read.

There is also what looks like a sunburst with the number 7 on one of the rays.

The email address etc. is:

I tried looking up AzMec and got a Zambian Mineral Exploration site and a site selling orthopedic products.

So tell me o wise ARGers, is this Something or nothing?

OK, thanks. You caught me in a time of boredom. Razz

Doesn't reveal much... 68.222.6.182 is a BellSouth subnet, and they're direct relaying through Hotmail.

As far as I can tell, the handwritten note states:

communication packet to the server, a
following diagram:



ETA: Uh, wait a minute... The original was PNG? Can you attach that? Better to work with the original, despite its size.

If it's Mashimisho I'd say have a look at the Kevin Balderock thread.

Hi all! Haven't been here in a while. Haven't really followed any ARGs recently. I originally posted this in a new thread but NightHawk and MrToasty said it should go over here.

I just received this odd email though and it seems like it could be something. I did a UF search for some of the words and nothing came up. What I can make out is:

...isimisho employee!
(strat?) agem
(personal ke?) y is
(ga?) mbit
Access codes below yours in order of privilege are
Dovecote
Common

Then there is a flowchart with what appears to be RN or RoN, AzMec., and STP. The note is smudged and difficult to read.

There is also what looks like a sunburst with the number 7 on one of the rays.

More communication. I responded to the initial email with this:
Quote:
Thank you. That is an interesting picture. Some of my friends are interested in it too. Is there something I or we might be able to do for you?

WolfHawk


and received this reply:
Quote:
When
....Each
.........Anchoring
..............Piece
...................Orates
........................Neverending


The periods represent spaces. Each word was indented 5 more spaces than the first word: 4, 9, 14, 19, 24 in case it means anything.

WEAPON

We are looking for some type of weapon?

Oh man, I just got really excited because I thought "weapon" would be Paul's password (Music as a Weapon)... but no dice. Sad. I spent a few hours last night trying every word I could even possibly connect with music to no avail.

Yeah, I just found this/caught myself up for the most part last night. Howdy. Kevin has a new Tumblr post up, by the way.
