In the second trailer there are also two pictures at 1:08 which I found suspicious.

I suspect that the rainbow should be a reference to Bifr�st. (Wikipedia: In Norse mythology, Bifr�st or Bilr�st is a burning rainbow bridge that reaches between Midgard, the world, and Asgard, the realm of the gods.)

I found out that this is a picture of a matchbox which comes from a factory at Unddevalla Sweeden. (http://www.flickr.com/photos/paintedfishstudio/2522862783/).
There is also some information about the history of that factory it was build in 1874 and closed 1938. The text about it is in German (http://www.zuendholzschachteln.de/sw112g.htm). Let me know if somebody need a translation but I think I'm digging to deep into this.

Also, found other photos in the video.
Please follow the link to see them.

I noticed SHARP is mispelled SRHAP....Don Miguel and Sharp are both in London....although I don't know what Catic is.

I noticed the misspelling of Sharp too, and though I think it's something to keep in mind it's a common practice to alter the spelling of a companies name to avoid copyright infringement. I would think that's the highest probability.

I just got an e-mail from Odd Jobs, but it seems to be addressed to Curran. Why I got it is a mystery to me:

I got that e-mail in addition to another one from Sigyn's account that's almost the same:

I got this one about 50 minutes after the e-mail from admin. Probably just trying to make sure everyone in game gets a version of the e-mail.

I just looked at the images from the second trailer. The mountains are from Torres del Paine National Park in Chile and the iceberg is from Jokulsarlon, which is "the largest glacier lagoon or lake in Iceland" according to Wikipedia. Heck, if you go look at the Wiki entry, the picture is right there. I don't know what/where that stone doorway is. The other items seem pretty typical. A lightbulb, a skull, wheat(?)... I'm sort of at a loss.

So I've started going through the hexidecimal code deal using the runic code. Now the first word that come up is:

brotesvttvttflkior

According to google translate it is swedish. Which would make sense. But Google translate is giving me no love right now and letting me know what is means in english. I'll keep plugging away but I hope someone speaks swedish is google doesn't.

I don't think that's a Swedish word. Unless it's some kind of anagram that I'm not seeing.
Granted, I don't speak Swedish, but I do speak Norwegian, and the two are similar enough that a Norwegian speaker can understand a Swedish speaker and vica versa.

She's referring to the use of the administration e-mail server from odd jobs to send the taunt to S.A. Curran. Unless I've completely missed something.

and yes, yes I did.

Sigyn's talking about the www.fieldagentfederal.com website,

so indeed, suck it Curran

On a side note, in the markup was this:

body background="HAC_A_DO/Im_with_loki.jpg"

HAC_A_DO?

relevant?

Did you notice the 1 7 9 8 4 3 2 5 6 at the bottom of the picture? I think it has something to do with Ragnarok.

I'M WITH LOKI

On the bottom of the "I'M WITH LOKI" posters on fieldagentfederal.com, there's a couple of numbers. 1 7 9 8 4 3 2 5 6. What are they for? o:

I'm thinking it may have something to do with the R A G N A R O K combination code thing I mentioned earlier.

I can tell you that it definitely does, but I'm not sure the order. They're definitely supposed to be pushed in that sequence, but on the Ragnarok site I don't know which button is which number.

That's exactly what I was trying. I had Asgard as 4 and Vanaheim as 3 on my list but either way doesn't seem to do anything. I even tried "walking backwards" and putting them in in reverse order but no luck.
