ok, thinking loud..

so we got this scifi or strange advanture movie\show from the 80-90, no idea yet, trying to find out what is it right now.. but the kind of background the wemen got and the soong voodoo people made me think on the 2nd indiana jones movie..

on the yellowcurtain blog, the hatnofer pic reminds me the second puzzle in ep4 with the eart of scarab and we also got hatnofer's ring and HWA stands for horror writers asosiation.. any ideas?

EDIT: ive been told this pic is from "the omega man" 1971, but i dont think it is.. still searching..
EDIT2: actually, two rings, 36.3.3 and 36.3.4

also, lots of info on the FB page.. we need again someone in montreal to dig some files..

and i guess i dont get how this works this time, but i havnt got this "first clue solved" messege, and the link http://www.mccord-museum.qc.ca/en/collection/artifacts/VIEW-24338?Lang=1&accessnumber=VIEW-24338 and the http://www.qadhos.com/clue/Puzzle-lvl2.jpg thing. can someone sort thing out on where are we standing and what puzzles we still facing? Bang Head

is the first time that we post something here but we've been following the game since chapter 4.
And now, we think we have some clues about "seal 4"


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
first of all, the picture belongs to tv series "the norliss tapes" ( the blonde actress is Angie Dickinson)
at some point, the "osiris scabar" and a "RING" are named in the series ... (that ring has the power to bring dead back to life)
Then, the serie's writter is William F. Nolan, he was given some adward ( I can't recall the name >.<) by the HWA .


apologies for the english.

Damián G, and Aurora.

This link has the photo linking to "The Norliss Tapes" and also sites this scarab ring:

http://arbogastonfilm.blogspot.com/2010/10/31-screams-angie-dickinson.html?zx=d4a70959ccefc2db


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"In the made-for-TV THE NORLISS TAPES (1973), Angie Dickinson plays Ellen Cort, the widowed wife of a sculptor who at the time of his untimely demise was dabbling in another medium: occultism! . . . . Attempting to get to the bottom of all this, Angie teams with foxy antiques dealer Madame Jeckiel (the late Vonetta McGee), who once sold Ellen's late husband the Osiris scarab, a ring granting the wearer life after death.

The girls find David Cort in a labyrinth of tunnels beneath his studio and attempt to slide the ring from his finger."

Seal 4 unlocked

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Wow really, thanks to the work done by others in identifying the image and the image of Hotnofer on the YellowCurtain blog I was thinking more along Egyptian mythology lines especially since Hotnofer was buried with rings.

Maybe it was dumbed down, I hope Seal 3 isn't as obvious because I haven't got a clue.

I'm actually annoyed with the answer from #4, after trying every variation I could research. I even watched a clip from "The Norliss Tapes" trying to find the exact term.

No idea on #3.

Dont worry, I came across it by constantly googling the ring and scarabs and came across a reference to "Egyptian Scarab Ring" and when that didnt work I tried the shortened text....

messege from sasha via twitter. im too drunk right now to realy read it.

Quote:
24.338 is the painting of a clock. If we can figure out the second painting, it will probably tell us where the documents are buried.
No one from Montreal manage to uncover the file, and I did try to find someone with no luck so far...

It has to deal with the people who took the picture of the clock and how their stuff is located at the McCord museum of Canadian history.

Sad to say, we have 10 1/2 hours left to attempt to abort the shutdown. Seal 3 is giving us such a problem, I thought for sure one of us would have it by now.

Does anybody have any bright ideas? What is "3" even asking us?
