I agree -- however, I will be away from home most of the weekend and limited in my ability to work with the team. This is why I am "dumping" my ideas in the thread in case it assists someone else.

As a funny aside I was talking with Forest through Twitter messages.

Do you guys ever get on the Unfiction IRC channel? We could go make our own room.

Cool Tarot cards string and Nutley. Very creative!

Finally sat down and worked out that the mysterious pages in my parcel were these pages:

http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:Three_Books_of_Occult_Philosophy_%28De_Occulta_Philosophia%29_%281651%29.djvu/154

My copy, which is in latin, starts with the last line of the poem (although it's not the last line as translated, but rather, 'Ancipiti gyro uolui, frangiq, rubore').

http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:Three_Books_of_Occult_Philosophy_%28De_Occulta_Philosophia%29_%281651%29.djvu/155

It ends on the next page with the line 'And this is often found, that in times of Pestilence many that are carried for dead to the graves to be buryed, revive again.'

http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Page:Three_Books_of_Occult_Philosophy_%28De_Occulta_Philosophia%29_%281651%29.djvu/156

Also, there's a letter Z written in white crayon by the lines 'ribus suis latere uehementloribus extasibus oppressas, & ab omni corporea actione solutas, siou uita, sensus, motus'. But there are no other letters that I've found yet.

Intriguingly, it deals with reviving the dead. I found it odd that YT seemed to be perturbed at things dealing with his death, although he knew full well from the start of the game that he was dead and made multiple references to it. So I can only assume that whatever bothered him was something beyond that.

Lastly, I am going to be out of town all next week and away from the clues, so if there's anything anybody would like me to do as regards those clues, let me know ASAP.

Another way to convert the Hanged Man binary is base 2 to base 10.
101010010100 = 2708

YT is being rather insistent, so here's an original copy of the manuscript pages.

I have been too busy for this over the weekend but now...

In the interests of sharing all we can in order to crack this here is an email and reply I sent to Forest/Shelley a couple of days ago.
