In deed, you can see it without slowing it down! Great find!

Lol - and that hidden pic to the words "It's all going on right before our eyes"!

Isn't it G + 3 = J?
Would make sense G H I J - maybe we need to transpose (?) some notes of a melody?

random notes

just doing some musing; here are a few of my notes

symbology:

the cfg logo is a gordian knot which is associated with infinity:

Quote:
According to ancient teachings, in the beginning there was a great void. This void is the creator, with no body, shape or definition. The Creation requires a definition of space and direction. The Torus tube provides this kind of definition by using the inside, the outside, and infinity. It can be used as a philosophical model of creation itself.
The Gordian knot is the simplest of all Torus knots. The shape represents the idea of the ONE GOD and the holy trinity relation which comes from the ONE and exists in everything (positive, negative and neutral).

The word ONE ("ECHAD" in Hebrew) and the word LOVE ("AHAVA in Hebrew), has a numerological value of 13. The number 13 contains the one and the three…


i bring this up because 3 keeps coming back up

the "ace and omega" refers to the alpha and omega which has a very similar symbology to the gordian knot -- the idea of infinity, the creator, etc.--and is another loop

I'm just wondering about a deck of cards, if we know the ace is alpha (ace also = 1....imnotamember1 perhaps???)

the ace is on a spade, the images from imnotamember1's vid's, the logo looks almost like a spade

ace also equals 11

basically, i am wondering if we need to determine the omega

also--talking about loops, after someone reached level 80 of the game and it brought them back to levl 10 with the message: "see you on the next loop"


characters:

I went through this whole thread and wrote down every relevent name...it looks like a cast of 1000's (exageration, but still); would it be worthwhile listing them here? Or should I add them to the wiki?


lord magpie video


finally, the final video we got from the lord magpie game...
when the video ends, we get a bunch of video's recommended that seem pretty specific to the game

what I'm getting at is they don't appear to be videos that youtube made an associative list for us, they seem to be more tailor made for us to go through

when i get a chance, i'm going to go over each of the 15 videos and see if we overlooked something, but tonight is the lost finale, so I probably won't do it anytime soon

I'm not uploading anything to Babbage KC, that's not me.

...

That shizzire account comes from the cfg portal, can you tell what the hell they're doing and where they got the clearance codes?...
I'm serious KC, give me a good reason not to disable the network. We've survived without it before.

Ok, I'm not sure what the hell's going on here but I just got home sat down to check the babbage and it had decrypted one of mine; B797C4 to be exact. It brought up an audio file.....

Loose transcript;

*with what sounds like train cars going by in the bg....

"...there, you there?
It's me Thomas, please pick up the phone.
[inaudible] is going on [around?], I can't touch base with HQ.
Can't bring up the [inaudible], I, I think it's down.
Are you ok?
I love you..."


So, I had to bring the file up a couple times to make sure everything sounded good. But about the 4th or 5th time i clicked on the B797C4 file this started popping up....

What the hell is going on? It'd be great to hear back from HQ because this is getting bloody hectic. Five people have been in here all ready looking for Pb. I dunno if they're jacks or the law or what but none of them look too friendly. Does this have anything to do with your so called serendipity last night? Jesus Christ there's another one. I gotta go.

The mp3 is actually the file for 73F130. Guess they accidentally had B797C4 point to it for a while, but the latest text it what should be there.

As for the latest, I grabbed code 8A578D just because it hadn't been posted yet here.

Did I just run a fool's errand? lol...

Ok, well I'll repost the text here once more.....

From B797C4:

Pb could be Pegbox.

Bbbage doesn't get forward with the files I wanted to get decrypted, still black files with codes and red files without the codes below, both unclickable - what is wrong?

If there is another set of codes, let me know, I'm back to 0 of 5 today.

I believe we've entered all the codes we know fanfan, if you want to catch up check the grid here: http://cfg.wikibruce.com/X0l.nu and enter any codes that are red on your screen, the grid should match what's on your screen. AgentLex has done a meticulous job of getting it all lined up and everything.

I think so, too, great work.

We have made a long way already.

I wonder where exactly that building on the photo http://cfg.wikibruce.com/3F31BD stands.

New e-mail (reply) from Keyser

Quote:

subject: * ME KITTEN

Sweetheart, darling, loyalist -- your concern: touching; your petulance: amusing; your distrust: ...valid, I'll grant that.

But no matter what they say, you will always the J♠/♣ to my A♠. They don't pay special for that any more, but it's funny damnit, so laugh. You get it, you're clever.


My response:

There is little comfort in laughter at the moment. Where do I stand now that they see the Babbage hack came from my CFG credentials? I won't be of value to you anymore, and that's my concern.

Agreed on the PegBox thing. But fanfan, remember, the Babbage is going to be decrypting these files in it's own chronological order. It may be to control the flow of the game or to just confuse the heck out of us...who knows. But the files you entered will be decrypted when it's ready, it'll then be up to you to post them up here because that's why some are red and yet you still can't click on them. Because they've been decrypted by the Babbage but were entered by a different user and only that person can actually view them. It just lets all of us know as a collective which have been decrypted based upon the grid location....

*ETA: I can't seem to find any attempts at creating transcripts for any of the audio files from the Babbage other than the 77472 song. Am I missing something or shall I make an attempt at this and post my findings?
