Sneaky little guys. I would have never noticed that. Thanks for pointing that out!

For those who haven't seen it look above John's signature it's a faint red you may need to zoom in a couple of times. Going to the ipaddresser site gives you this: "Within page 3/3 "fergh554kline" I've tried to use it around but nothing works.

Sooo I finally had a head bashing revelation. I finally figured out that the image was stegged. Procedding with the password I destegged it into a txt file. Now here comes the fun part. What did it say?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
johnwilconson.com


Let the mind games start! I've sent off an email to sourgrapes again in hopes that it is now active in the game again?

Or that the PM"s are messing with us by giving the site yet again?

Will report back if I do recieve a response.

(So is this why there has been no updates? Because we were supposed to find that again?)

Well I can say that that site looks nothing like it did the first time around! But if the image from The Church was stegged, then it means that The Church put the coded message in there.... They wanted us to find this particular ipaddresser page and find the site again.

Or was it "again" for them on this timeline... I forget, how did we find the site the first time?

Really? I thought it was the same as last time I saw it. The only thing I thought was different was the audio.

We found it last time through the instructional videos that Malcolm interfered with and gave us the game terrigama and then proccded to a forums where a number letter substitution was used and gave us the words johnwilconson. Google did the rest.

So I guess this is at roughly the same time, just a different timeline. So yeah, maybe that does mean that Kevin's back in business.

Yeah, I remember the site having a bunch of children's drawings scribbled all over it, and there being more of a text than those two little paragraphs. I don't remember the creepy video at the bottom with a guy's face.

@Cherrytree98765

Please, try to answer the following questions if possible, cause i really can't see how it's possible for me to advance in the game:
a) What exactly did you do with the password


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
fergh554kline

b) Which image exactly was stegged (I don't know what that means in english) and what about it?
c) Please, please, please, someone give me the passwords to the word_twice files that don't open with the special word, or at least tell me where to look.
d) and what's the damned word spy needs...

@pugarules:

A and B: These go together. Stegged is a short term for Stenography it is where a file is hidden within a picture. You must have certain programs that allow it. When you do this you are required to insert the password which was the one that was given by the IP addresser page. The page that was stegged was the one they pointed out the third page of the wilconson letter.

C: This is your keyword. For example if the keyword you were using was "music" then it would be Username: Music Password: Music that's all there is to it. If in doubt click the little windows looking icon a screen will flash up and tell you your keyword.

D: The access codes are found when you are converting docs. It's the morse code you hear playing when you sometimes click on the file to unlock it.

anyone notice the words on the johnwilconson.com site? Right behind the odd video of the little girl. It says:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
My daddy was taken away by bad men


Letting it sit, it looks like it is from the picture the girl drew...

Actually, Cherrytree, the bottom row of files isn't that way. The clue to what to put for their password is in the thing that pops up when you mouse over their icons. I forget what it is, though. I've already decoded those files.

Oh yeah. The first set was
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Username: Seeker
Password: Blind


Also a few ideas.

If we are dealing with two sets of cords then could it be likely that each side will be given one full set? People on Henry's side get's one and the people on the Chruch's side get's one. It could help split apart the storyline of the two from being so closely intertwined as they are now.

Also if the Kevin email is active again I wonder how he'll respond? I mean it's under different circumstances now. He has no reason to speak to us or help us. I guess that all depends on whether it is active again and this is our chance to save him (Tell him not to go save his mother)

Still nothing from Vidal on any of the emails I've sent him. Plus still no tweets I wish they would at least tell us something. (Whether it be IG or not)

Still no posts from Alvarez or Malcolm responding to me either.

Same here, regarding Vidal. The last e-mail he sent to me in our correspondence (in reply to me telling him I had been following the group with cherrytree and seadevil in it), he asked me "how far down our proverbial rabbit hole, have you gone?" (Note, this e-mail was received Sep 16.)

I sent a reply back answering him and supplying friendly banter that would give him enough to reply to and he still hasn't replied. I sent that email on Sept 23 (7 days ago).

Unless we have missed something, I don't see anything more to do right now than wait for something to happen...

EDIT:
Also, do we have someone here who took the side of the church? Have they sent all of the codes (at least, all the ones we've found) with that little spy icon? I'm still curious as to what is supposed to happen when all the codes are given to the church.

I"m the only one I think so far has dug through the codes I have about 9 to 10 codes? (I would need to check my list.) but at a certain point I think it's 8? When you have to scroll down to see them. Seems to get deleted whenever I exit that screen. So as far as I know I shouldn't even have 10 codes. (Since the amount of files is less than 10.) So far I don't think anything happens with them yet.

The last email I recieved was the 19th (2 days before the last tweet.) So far it seems to be an information blackout. My post to Malcolm is half a month old. Alvarez's is not that old. So I fear I won't be getting any emails from Kevin (if it is back online) for quite awhile.

I just feel it's weird because when we were waiting for other updates we at least got tweets on progress or to keep us occupied. *Shrugs* Maybe they're just concentrating on the 3D side for the moment?


EDIT: Don't get me wrong. I understand that splitting their team to work on Flash and the 3D part is probably a bitch. So I know leeway for updates is a given I would just like some sorta update to keep me placated like they did when IDGI1 site was being made. Not this blackout.

I totally understand what you mean there, cherrytree. I am a curious being by nature, I like to learn, and I like a good story, so all this gets me excited and brings out the somewhat childish impatience in me--but just a little. It gets you pumped and wanting to know what the heck is going on!

Anyways I'm going to work on a guide to stuff in the ARG while we have the free time and upload it to my site. It'll be nothing fancy (White background black text.) but I have no HTML or any web design experience whatsoever and i only use the site for something that requires nil on that part. I may have part of it done by this weekend.

If you ever need help with that, feel free to contact me on here. I can even give you my e-mail over PM if you need it. I haven't gone real deep into HTML but I've dabbled in it and might soon try to read further into it than the basic stuff I know.
