Whoever is texting her wants a password-- I'm still working on username/password combinations for iwascharlottebronte.com. The London picture is called "11061605," if that helps at all.

I meant to mention the file name earlier. I noticed the "605" at then end matched up with the time 6:05 on the picture of big ben.

Yeah. Considering all the time references, I'm assuming we should be focusing on the picture and details gleaned from it, but I'm not having any luck with combinations. Probably time to sleep, haha.

ok so I got this reply strangely enough (I guess I was right?) from ghosthunter:

No commonality or "answer" was needed. Just an address. You, too, have been chosen, as you have proven yourself committed and trustworthy.

Time on Big Ben looks more like 4:05 to me. Make that 1605 GMT.

Hmmm.. Eventful night-May need to flip sleeping pattern.

So with the poet theme I've tried (for the username login):

charleswordsworth-composeduponwestminsterbridge ---Written there
tseliot-burntnorton -------Time
tseliot-fourquartets -------Time
elizabethgaskell-northandsouth ----Poets Corner
geoffrychaucer-westminsterpalace ---- Helped build
walterraleigh-thehistoryoftheworld -----Wrote in ToL

Sadly no joy, but we probably have to crack this for the three person clues?

Laughing Lori has made a touching and somewhat cryptic blog entry called Sisters which shows G's email pics to be just personal.
Also, there's a striking b/w jpeg in her ABOUT section titled November. (OOG source is the Kwerfeldein photo team)

ETA: The new wiki JPEG is titled 'rememberwhen". Remembrance Day(link) in GB is the 11th November and:
Wikipedia wrote:
on Remembrance Day, the chimes of Big Ben are broadcast to mark the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month and the start of two minutes' silence.

Had been using "bigben" as the user name but am also still up a creek with the PW (obviously).

Great job with Big Ben, Amandel!

I've got to be honest, I'm very uncertain where we should be focusing our efforts, but the Sisters post (which I agree is incredibly poignant - whoever's doing the writing is phenomenal) got me thinking about a couple of possibilities for the three names.

My first thought was just three sisters - Charlotte, Emily, and Anne (although it turns out that there were two more sisters and a brother).

Then I thought about the clue at the end of the post about how "we're all known by many names", and I realized Charlotte Bronte went by two additional names as pen names - Lord Charles Albert Florian Wellesley and Currer Bell, meaning she was sort of known by three names.

I'm going to post a comment about this to word press, and see if it's leading us in the correct direction at all.

Not sure if this is useful, but another famous day in November for Great Britain, is November 5th. "Remember remember the fifth of November", or Guy Fawkes Day. As noted above, the file name for the picture is 11061605, if related that would make it the day after Guy Fawkes was caught trying to blow up Parliament.

*eta - Guy Fawkes had two other alias: Guido Fawkes and John Johnson.

Hi enaxor, that makes tons of sense esp. since his torture began on the 6th in the Tower if I'm reading the wiki correctly. **makes 180° turn to wack in new Guy fawkes PWs**

From wikipedia: Guy Fawkes was brought to the Tower on 6 November 1605; after torture he signed a full confession to the Gunpowder Plot. Fawkes's signature shortly after torture (top) is a barely evident scrawl
I thought the new text was referencing his signature.
So i do believe the this make sense. The date on the image filename is Nov. 6th, 1605. Also the new image on the wiki is called "broughttothetower"

Laughing Was also just editing to say the wiki jpeg changed to a V for Vendetta one titled "brought to the tower" with a hyper link above it to the Tower of London wiki article I was just reading THX to enaxor.

Guy Fawkes Night is known by different names as well.Again From Wikipedia: Bonfire Night (or more recently Fireworks Night). It fits with the time references. He didn't say it was the name of a person, did he?
And on the 'ghost' theme of the story, anyone else think of the mysterious Elizabeth when she talked about Jenna? Especially since her last name is Moore , she's a dancer, photographer, pale, aand no one else saw her?
