I'm really hoping not either...just waiting on the PM to take care of some family issues. Sounds like it's taking longer than she thought it would Sad

Ok, there's a new video uploaded by Wessen:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMmNq4zGtL0

I don't have time to watch it, maybe will do later.

I KNEW it!

Yay! It's back!

Ok... um...

looking over this video, there's a lot of things that seem hidden in it. I'll start with the binary. There's a string of binary numbers in the video that I ran through a translater. They are:

01000110011101010110010101101
10000100000010011000110111101
1101100110010101110010

I posted that up there just ot make sure someone can double-check my work and make sure I got it right.

But it translated into "Fuel Lover". NO IDEA what that means...

The text in the "go down" and the Trist strings of letters seem to have messages in them as well... they're pretty obvious, I'm not gonna repost them here. But if the video's any indication, it seems like there might be a hidden word or something in the video comment. I tried typing out all the capital letters, but it just read:

NWOOAASRE

Which makes no sense.

I dunno what to make of this video. I'm gonna try to email Trist and see what he's been up to. Does anyone have any ideas or notice anything I've missed?

NWOOAASRE

Another thought: is there an NPC named Nadra Winar?

Edit: These are the feasible anagrams from NWOOAASRE:
Aware Soon
A Arson Woe
A Arson Owe

My money is on Aware Soon.

Hmm...

My only additional thought is a semi helpful one. It said "iNadraWinarOOm", right? Well, it looks like "iN a draWina rOOm". Obviously, there's an a instead of a g there, so I'm probably wrong, but it's a thought.

Excellent work, everyone!

I'm disappointed I didn't catch all of that. Some of it, but not all of it. You guys ARE smarter than me. Damn.

I sent an email to Trist. I'll let you guys know what it says, if he responds.

Has anyone tried emailing "Wessen" again?

Actually kinda makes sense, considering the rest of the sentence:

in a drawing room with a lock is the key to the answer we are looking for

it's the bit numbers and letters that's got me stumped now. And seriously, wtf does Fuel Lover mean??

EDIT: Numbers! We've been sent a 9 and a 4, yes?
EDIT EDIT: and 15:12

Trist brought up a good point: Fuel lover could be an anagram!

I will post my full conversation with him tonight.

I think I tried the Fuel Lover as an anagram and it didn't turn out pretty. Hmm.... will have to try again.

Edit: Level Four = Fuel Lover.

(How did I miss that??)

As promised, here's my conversation with Trist:

Trist?

There's another new video up on the youtube channel you thought Nancy started. You should PROBABLY watch this one, especially because in at least one place it says "Trust Trist".

Here's a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMmNq4zGtL0

There's some binary in there that translates into "Fuel Lover"... doesn't make any sense to me, but maybe it makes some sense to you...

What has been happening on your side of things? Did you try what I suggested and email Nancy's email address to see if "Wessen" responded?

I think whoever is behind these videos is trying to encourage us to encourage YOU to go down into the facility and investigate... for whatever reason. I'm not sure we should trust them, but that's what it seems...

Are you ok? I haven't heard from you in a while...

Zobot


You know i was expecting an email from you. its just by chance that i came on here... you see i was sent home basically fired when my empoyer found out i had suck into the security room. i dont know how they found this out. im sure i was seen by no one. anyway i thought this was all over for me but last night i got a call bsck. apparently the tech problems there have become too much to handle... im being monitered in my time here working but i had a feeling a compulsion to check this email and i did and here we are kid. seemingly back on the proverbial horse. im less then happy about it though missing my youngests birthday. the video seems pretty vauge to me... i have no idea what fuel lover means but doesnt this wessen use anagra
ms alot. its the film that bothers me the most... that first bit seems familur... just not sure how though...


Oh and as for nancys email its shut down I sent the email and got nothing back now its unacsessable


Ok... Hm. So you mentioned technical troubles. What kind of technical troubles are you guys having? And if I may ask... It seems like it becoming increasingly relevant... What can you tell us about this Wessen guy who died there?

I cant tell you much about this Wessen guy. I had a talk with my wife about it and we kind of came up with the thought that he was a patient that was too unruly and as such was kept in a solitary confident. What you want to know is weather he is still alive or not... I dont know. It seems crazy to think he is still alive. In this day and age it seems far too inhuman to do that to someone you know. I dont know what to think about it.

The technical troubles have seemed to stop since I got here. I haven't even witnessed them yet. However it was things such as auto gates opening and closing without command, computers turning on and off and apparently messages being left on computers. I'm still investigating it.

But look, I'm going to throw this down with you kid. After this i'm pretty sure I am still redundant. I and my family are still at risk so i will not do anything too great... but while I am here, I am at your service.


At this point I'm kinda becoming whatever the opposite of a skeptic is...

The trouble is, Trist, I have a sneaking suspicion I know what I should be asking you to do, and I really do not want to actually ask you to do it.

After you reminded us that our mysterious friend likes anagrams, a friend of mine reported that "Fuel Lover" is an anagram for "Level Four". And given the content of the videos, I think what we're SUPPOSED to do is to ask you to go investigate the lower levels. I think that if we did that, any security measures that would normally be in place to prevent you from getting down there or anyone that would normally show up to stop you would suddenly just sort of fall out of place and allow you access. I know this sounds crazy, but I think someone's trying to provoke you into going down and looking around further.

Which is why I don't want you doing that. The last person who listened to us and went downstairs to investigate ended up dying, or vanishing, or SOMETHING. "Fool me once, shame on me." and so forth.

Maybe if there's no other options... but for now, what I would ask of you is information. How many levels do you know are in Lavender Meadows? Do you know anything about what people are kept on each level? What are your superiors expecting you to do about all this if it all stops while you're here?

And, while I hesitate to ask you this, what sort of security clearance do you have?

Zobot


Guys, I think I ought to cool it with talking to Trist for a while, he's ALL of our contact, and I think you guys have some good ideas for what to do and some better questions.

So I hope to see some people's conversations!

I've been keeping up with Trist...first few emails contained similar information to what you got. Here's the rest:

Quote:
Me: In my optimistic view, I'd say that it had to be good for you to see your family for a while. Have the odd dreams continued?

Trist: Yeah i have, I've been taking sleeping pills though, just so i can get a full nights sleep to function and yes it was nice to see my family
Tell your friends that I got the clearance to level four by the way.
