The Voxstat tweet matches these numbers added to his webpage source :

Code:
V3 IV3 IV1 II1 V3 II1 II1 IV3 IV2 III4 VII1 V4 VI3 IV3 II2 IV3 V2 IV1 V3 IV3 II2 IV1 IV3 VI2 II1 IV1 II1 IV2 V4
II2 IV3 V2 VI3 I1 V2 I4 I1 IV2 I4 I2 I1 I3 VI3 I1 V2 I4


Have converted them to numbers. However, they dont convert at paulschou or from Octal. Am heading to Sleepyville. G'Nite.
p.s. also tried reversing the string. Am sure I'll wake up tomorrow to someone's savvy solve.

It's entirely possible this connects up somehow with the pamphlet I was sent, since there are exactly seven sections before the aforementioned warning and the sections are labeled with roman numerals. I'm at work which makes this hard but later I will have more time. I tried just using characters but got nonsense (below) so far.

The pattern is odd and repeats a lot, and the second number is always 1-4. I don't think it's ascii or any numeric code like that because of the nature of the second digit. It's possible it's a straight cryptogram (simple substitution). Someone should replace the codes with A-Z and try a crypto solver.

Need to doublecheck, but using a solver I think it comes to:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
SOME SEE ONLY TWO FORMS OF MOVEMENT FORWARD AND BACKWARD
However that assumes one letter is missing from BACKWARD in the original (C or K)

MrToasty's solve leads nicely into a video that is in process on voxstat's youtube titled "i move within."

ETA: "i" in the title

Aaand, of course, EVP is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_voice_phenomena, and we're back to Voices in the Static. Not that that's a bad thing.

Ahhh EVPs and distorted videos freak me out so badly. It'll definitely be interesting keeping up with this one. Smile

I've had somewhat of an exchange with Mr. Profitt on Facebook:

From: Maxwell

I looked over your company. It's impressive but at this time I have no need for a viral marketing team. I will keep your company in mind for future projects.

Maxwell J Proffitt

From: Me

Don't get me wrong... My "friend" invitation was not a business solicitation. In my industry, where social networking is key, it's who you know that's important. And you seem to be someone of interest, I admit.

Forgive me if I'm out of line. If there is every anything I may do for you, do let me know.


Quote:
From: Maxwell

With an attitude like that you could end up as canon fodder. Watch yourself. You will end up being used.

Since you are so eager to prove yourself, there have been five friend requests to this account in a day. Do you know why?

Maxwell J Proffitt


Quote:
From: Me

I would venture to say it's the nature of Facebook. I average 3-4 friend requests a day from people I've never met. I have learned to be a lot more selective as to who I allow in to my personal space, especially in light of the privacy uproar this site is experiencing.

And I do agree that "friend" is a bad term for it here.

As for me, your name was passed along by a business associate - a "player", if you will. I do not know how many other people this person has told about you, nor can I say what the intention of everyone else is.

But I have to ask you a question... You seem to have somewhat of an aversion to the nature of a site such as this, even go so far as to mention that you are "not here to make friends." So why are you here? You post frequently on your wall, yet nobody's listening... So why do it?


Quote:
From: Maxwell

You never gave your own intentions.

Some people listen and some don't. Some learn and some won't. There are millions of people on Facebook and I'm just a philanthropist at heart, giving out for free what I paid to learn.

Maybe you will be one of the ones who pays attention. If so then you will see what I'm after.


...and he accepted my "friend" request. So, besides Shane and "Art Pathological", I'm his only friend.


On a related note, "Art Pathological" accepted my friend request with this note:

Quote:
From: Art Pathological

Honestly, I'm only confirming this request because you have a bunny picture. Rabbits are awesome. They spend so much time insulting everything.


Very Happy


The thread notify dropped this one.

I had a bunny picture on my postit when i received my disc AND i made the terrible mistake of not noticing the return address.

Now it is a "christ i am so stupid some times" adn now i have to slog through 6 pages to catch up

So. Reading through the trailhead for Voices in the Static. Anything else I need to read to catch up to the story so far?

Are those symbols at the end of the video recognizable to anyone? Catchy tune.

Heya Mirror, Pia and y'all! Believe it's a really savvy idea for us all to read fully Tres' links posted just above.

"Toasty, mega props on the solve" which I should put on a bumper sticker. Laughing
