 		i dont think they could log mine or alteast look up my info on it b/c i have an encrypted modem but i dunno now a days you can do anything...


maybe just a radius of my location...

also are there hands like in the swf pic...
i cant see cuz i have a netbook and it used to let me zoom out but it doesnt anymore...
i think it has to do with the screen flashing it looks like its going slow but maybe it is actually skipping a frame....

edit: maybe we should put the gk logo on the document where it says gk logo here and then send it to whoever needs it ex:xo, gio,gknova6

 		Strange Email From Nova Six
Ok, I got a strange email from Nova Six this morning. Upon Ham Sleyer's suggestion (and I know Azure you said it might not work), I sent an email to gknova6_gmail telling them the following @ 20:48 on Sunday 5-9...

Quote:
"Greetings,

If I told you I had some information that your "competition" didn't want you to posess, would you be interested in making an "exchange" for this info?

Signed,

SamuelofR247"


To which I just saw a response from gknova6_gmail.com this morning which says it was sent @ 02:52 Today, 5-11.....

Quote:
"tell us what information you have. EOM."


Any ideas how to follow through on this, I thought, just like Azure said that it would most certainly backfire on me. It looks like I've actually got an opening here and I don't wanna screw it up, somebody gimme suggestions please.....

 		Ooh interesting.... you could tell them you have decrypted the password from the document and now have access... then ask how you should proceed?

 		BTW, this may not be 100% accurate, but it's a quick logo from the bits and pieces that were posted earlier...

they might trust you now...

I'm sure this is county-ism.. I go to bed, and all hell breaks loose lol

Is this just the beginning, or could this be almost the end of the game?

Oh and yeah I posted about the DNA a while back, noone picked up on it lol.. I dunno if you can actually decode a DNA sequence sadly.


Same for me, I thought about checking right before I went to bed last night and decided not to. I'm glad I did, I'm sick of them posting stuff way late, it's like a punishment to those of us who have to get up early.

So what are we seeing differently if we use the password to access it and why is it doing it to me on my work pc but not last night when I was at home?


The password gives you access to see the whole room. Then it's recorded that you successfully entered the password so each subsequent visit you don't have to reenter it. It's the same way logging in here or anywhere else works. Incidentally the password is stored by cookie not IP, an easy non-technical way to test is to open a different browser since cookies are not shared cross-browser. Lastly the numbers displayed are 201 not 501.

I plugged everything in, substituting FREEDOM with 7, to get:

TRD/(SRA-SRC-7)+DRB-IRE

Substitute the identification numbers to get:

1915032/(2010032-2010022-7)+0510032-0002036

And calculate it to get 1146340.


Nice solve, again. So why haven't you registered here? I've been meaning to ask you that for a while now.

See that's where the confusion comes in, this is exactly the kind of thing I would do. What Ham was suggesting was since we have the password none of us log in and force Nova to give us info because we figured out the password and will tell him what it is if he complies.

The next step is obvious Sam, continue your charade. Tell him you have the password to the nova HQ site and ask what he will trade for it.

ETA: Oops DP >.>

ETA2: You could offer to be a double agent Twisted Evil

What I meant to say is, last night on my laptop at home I never had any idea there was a password screen becuase the moment I logged on to check gknova6.com I could see the entire room. I only found out there was a password screen once I got here to work on this pc....

And, it is indeed a 5 at the top right there. It's 510, the 5 is backwards...

 		Just reread your post Samuel about the emails. I was confused, I thought you emailed the bad guys, not nova. Now why would nova want the password to his own site?

I'm getting kind of bored and frustrated with this game, anyone else feeling the same?
