I have been browsing through the Twitpic pages of invisible belfast and have come across some interesting pictures:

This one, for example, gives out coordinates:

54.587834, -5.935366

stick that in google maps and you end up at the

It's been a while since the last post here. Do we have any direction? Anything we think we should be focusing on? A few things to chase as far as I can tell:

-The Wellington House "phrase"
-The login details on The Darkest Star

And maybe some other things. I'm finding it difficult to keep up with all the pages, images, and updates. I don't have/like Facebook or Twitter and for some reason I haven't been getting any of the emails. I'm generally confused by most of this. I can't even see a link to the Facebook page anywhere, for god's sake. Can someone with a better grasp of things compile a list of important links?

Here's the bit cut out of page 30 of The Star Factory in bold, plus the rest of the paragraph that continues on the next page, because I don't think I've seen anyone actually post it, except on an easily-missed part at the bottom of the wiki page. I just have a feeling that we're not very organised.

"To someone looking through piles of old letters, a stamp that has long been out of circulation on a torn envelope often says more than a reading of dozens of pages... Stamps bristle with tiny numbers, minute letters, diminutive leaves and eyes, They are graphic cellular tissue. All this swarms about and, like lower animals, lives on even when mutilated. This is why such powerful pictures can be made of pieces of stamps stuck together. But in them, life always bears a hint of corruption to signify that it is composed of dead matter. Their portraits and obscene groups are littered with bones and riddled with worms."

...Like most literature so far in this ARG, it barely makes sense in modern English and I'm at a loss as to the significance of the text. We'll see where it takes us.

That does help, thank you. And I went ahead and registered on Facebook and Twitter.

Hello, theDarkestStar is just my personal website, unrelated to the game. Smile

Some folks on Twitter were talking about a wiki being a good idea to gather information together so I put one up.

any thoughts on OPIHN?

could it be numerical or something? 15,16,9,8,14

differences are:
1,-6,-1,6

which seems like a major coincidence?

As far as I can see, we don't yet have the resources to figure out what OPIHN means, nor do we have a way to use it. I think wellingtonhouse.html is what we should be focusing on right now. It's the only certain way forward we have. We need to figure out what the clue means, and SOLVED it quickly so we can move on to the next page.

Edit: Maybe not certain. The /images page reveals a lot. Maybe more than it ought to.

@rjt1978 noticed that the last Invisible Belfast email included a hidden link to a zip file. The zip contains a braille font. I have added this to the wiki under Emails - Email 3.

visiblebelfast on twitter says we missed something obvious, something delivered to us. That was most likely the braille font. Makes me a bit more irritated that I haven't been getting the emails. Maybe I should re-subscribe to the main site. Still, this confirms that Tactile Codes says we're getting a clue at noon on the 18th... which in Belfast time is in two hours. Also strong evidence that we should just wait for now.
