I think that's because Curran's name is 'Kay.' I e-mailed her asking about Loki:

What exactly is this "Loki" wanted for, Agent Curran?

We've got a new email from a new player in this.

Quote:
Oh boy.

Loki is so stupid sometimes, he got himself caught on CAMERA. And he calls himself a hacker...whatever.

Anyway, Loki's gone underground for a while, so who has to help him? yeah me.

Loki's got some tricks still, I wouldn't count him out. Until then, he's going to keep on getting you those documents. The U.S. Government may think they can suppress free speech and shut down websites, but we'll just keep on moving, keep one step ahead.

SIGYN




Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Caught you lookin' for the same thing
It's a new thing check out this I bring
Uh Oh the roll below the level
'Cause I'm livin' low next to the bass C'mon
Turn up the radio
They claim that I'm a criminal
By now I wonder how
Some people never know
The enemy could be their friend guardian
I'm not a hooligan
I rock the party and
Clear all the madness, I'm not a racist
Preach to teach to all
'Cause some they never had this
Number one, not born to run
About the gun...
I wasn't licensed to have one
The minute they see me, fear me
I'm the epitome - a public enemy
Used, abused without clues
I refused to blow a fuse
They even had it on the news
Don't believe the hype...


Now, the hidden text at the bottom is lyrics from the song "Don't Believe the Hype" from Public Enemy.

Also, the name Sigyn is a reference to Loki's wife in mythology.

New email from one of Loki's accomplices.

Yes, I've been getting all the emails as of late. Is it a bit strange that some people are getting all the emails while others are only getting some, or none, for that matter?

So, safe bet Loki is telling us to not believe him to be a criminal...however, being a known trickster, I'd don't know if I'm willing to take his word for it Razz.

Any reply from the FBI agent?

ETA: Nevermind, I just saw one of the posts above.

passwords

Another note to add to Operator0013 is that in addition to only 0, 1 and 2 being allowed in the password bar, you cannot type in 'x' or 'z'.

Unlike a lot of names so far - Kay Curran doesn't anagram into anything useful as far as I can see.

I suppose the "Don't Believe the Hype" lyrics are meant to mean that we shouldn't believe what people are saying about Loki - I'm still hesitant to fully trust him though...

This is a bit off topic, but given he provided us with all the original documents that are allegedly classified, can that not be taken as a sign of good faith? So far there's only been one individual speak against him.

If I was trying to cause dissent amongst a group working against me, I'd try to break them up from within by sewing that small seed of doubt

Sigyn is his wife, she would say that...


I don't think Kay Curran is an anagram or anything to do with Morse mythology, just seems to be a character's name. I'm going to try and prise some info out of her/him before i give them anything we have.

I think it's likely the Norse theme would only apply to things concerning Loki and Sigyn, as that is how they've been communicating with us.

Also, a friend found this floating out there:

Coincidence?

I haven't gotten the new emails. Last one I received was the notice from odd-jobs.biz, about them discovering Loki.

I sent another message and got a reply from Curran:

... I did not give you a tip. I merely inquired as to the reason this "Loki" fellow was wanted by the FBI. I might have some information in my memory for you, but I need to know what I'm supposed to be remembering so I can adequately tell you.

Kay Curran to xxxxxxx

Thank you for your co-operation.

The person who is calling himself Loki has broken the law by releasing documents that are sensitive to the security of our country. He is operating under the misguided idea of transparency, but I am afraid that the stakes are much higher than he could imagine. Information like this can cause trouble diplomatically and politically . But most importantly, he came upon documents and information that was not his to possess. If you run across any of this information, if would be invaluable. If you are in direct contact with this person, I advise you to be careful, and to tell him that he's better off turning himself in. So, you could say he is wanted at the most for theft, and at the most grave end of the scale treason. Its up to loki, which it will be.

SA Kay Curran


[EDIT:] jotadinero, you might need to check your spam folder. That's where I found the e-mails from Sigyn.

Also, anybody want me to ask something of Agent Curran? I probably shouldn't have even initiated the conversation, seeing as how I suck at talking with people, let alone characters in games ><"
