I'm going to try to focus all of my efforts on the Emily document this morning. Wish me luck.

Edit: I'm running out of ideas for keys and passphrases. Anybody have any more ideas?

Edit2: I hope everyone else is having more luck than myself. Either I'm missing something obvious or I've completely lost my mind. I think probably some of both.

One thing about the Emily file is that there is a question mark at the end where all the others had no punctuation. I have been using "question" and "ask" with all kinds of combinations of names and possible keys.

Email from Alex...

Quote:
The team I sent to Space Command has arrived safely. They will be "camping" inside the sub which will be positioned near the facility. They can't get any closer because of the whatever field Orein has created in the facility. They'll try to intercept some signal or what not that they could so we can get an insight on what's happening inside.

We should be able to hear from them soon and have something about this. Looks like progress is looking good!

I've been MIA all last week so it's been taking me some time to catch up. The scarlet file mentions a "scarlet master" -- would that be an idea for either the key or passphrase of the emily document?

Welcome back posse! I've tried it, but feel free to give it a shot. I feel like I've tried every combination of words even remotely related to this thing.

Well.....um......Don't know what to say, except i've sent off an email to LAINSY and Alex.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Basically all the pages are gone, everything redirects to the main page. With the suddness I'm not sure if this was planned or not I mean this is a complete blindside since there was no warning or clue (That I could see)
Don't think we were supposed to see it XD It directs now to a 404.

Seems LAINSY is on the job!

Quote:
=== websrv module ===

LAINSY SAYS: Apologies, there was an error in my websrv module. It will be fixed in a minute.


I'm guessing that we might be getting a new site? XD

Also for reference (Since it's gone) this was LAINSY's response to my question.

Quote:

LAINSY SAYS: QUERY PROCESSED

Black Industries is a FAILTECH Company owned by David Black, who is a FAILTECH Board of Director

I just sent that question just in case it IS for storyline. Though i'm expecting a very vague answer.

Alex's response:
Quote:
Not sure either, might be some problem when we run the brute-force program... Must have been a bug or something. We'll get that fix. That's if LAINSY doesn't fix it itself.


Update on site:
Quote:
** current failtechnologies.com files moved back to industriesblack.com
** INFORMATION: kleinenrgyco.com files MISSING
** official failtechnologies.com files will be moved back to proper directory after industriesblack.com files are restored


On the other site:
Quote:
=== websrv module ===


LAINSY SAYS: Standby files are being moved


and for the third site (Typo with the e)

Quote:
=== LAINSY websrv subroutine ===

LAINSY SAYS: Sorry, this site is missing in my file system. I'll get it back up soon


Finally LAINSY's response to the question.
Quote:

LAINSY SAYS: QUERY PROCESSED

Small problem with the websrv module conflicting with an active process. It has been resolved.



Too many edits

industriesblack.com is up.
kleinenergyco.com is down for right now.
and finally failtechnologies is back up and normal.

New email from Alex:

Quote:
Seems like the recent small outage in the site, and the mix up was caused by the brute-force program. Either that, or LAINSY is actually blocking the process. We have to start over with the brute-force program since it was terminated by LAINSY. Oh well, more time for you guys to try your luck I guess.

Anyways, another bad news... Miller is partly having a minor case of somehwat serious brain damage. Having some small case of amnesia where he forgets everything. You know. I don't think it's THAT serious.


Good for us more time....

I'm in the midst of trying out a new lead. If I can't figure it out, I'll tell everyone what I found.

Edit--I am definitely heading in some productive direction. Still trying.

Edit2--I can't make heads or tails of this, and I've got a lot of info to go on...

JOKE TRIGGER

TWENTY ONE SEVENTY TWO FIFTY THREE
------------------------------------------------
LAINSY SAYS:

Are your trying to PHRASE me? I'm sure there's CATCH something to be in it.
------------------------------------------------
JOKE TRIGGER ACCESS TWO

TWENTY PHRASES AND ONE WORD

SEVENTY FISHES AND TWO CATCH

FIFTY BREADS AND THREE BASKETS
------------------------------------------------
LAINSY SAYS: QUERY PROCESSED

A man walks down the path to talk about his twenty phrases.
"I have one word for you" he says.
"I have three baskets and fifty breads" he continued.
"Seventy fishes out in the sea drowning, I caught two." he added.
"FUTILE!" he then exclaimed.



I asked LAINSY what the joke was. These are the messages I got in order. I had to ask her several questions to get them. The third message was from me asking what the key was. The last one was from asking her what the full joke was.

I asked her other things, like who the joke was intended for, what was the perfect SETTING to tell the joke, et cetera. She wouldn't answer those.

I have a headache, someone just solve emily.txt now please.

And yes, I've vigenere'd the piss out of those key words.
