 		This tells us that DNC he knew perfectly was in the Lockbox. He knew how to relate the numbers of sports results, put it in a picture in his tweeter, perhaps the encrypted message he wrote it, since it is a message which repeated in tweets and emails: "Death is not the end" .. . Then the remaining elements from the box may belong to him. She will also know then that means the rest of annotations, two color marks,the bills ... The dice cup (with the inner half detached, I think hiding something), the chain ... Even he may appear on the tape.
I think may be asked openly for the contents of the Lockbox.

 		Tried doiop.com/euclid, based on Euclid's theory from Pythagorean Triples and got another map location, in Ohio. It's Lake Shore Blvd & 213 Street in Euclid, Ohio. Not sure if that's it, but the 213 Street seems interesting. I'll keep looking.
And the example for Euclid's formula on wikipedia looks familiar:

Also looking into the Twelve Coins problem/Balance puzzle, nothing yet. A lot of this stuff just goes over my head. I've always been the worst at math. If someone wants to help out?

I also tried doiop.com/Pythagoras but it's blocked by my filter, it's a website called upclive? Not sure what that is, but if someone wants to check it out JIC that'd be awesome.

 		I went to http://www.doiop.com/Pythagoras, and it resolves to a 404 error page for a German site: http://www.upc.at/system/404/.

Doesn't seem relevant obviously, but here's a screenshot just in case.

 		The answer to the riddle is doiop.com/onehundred. I know this because he told me. Attached is a photo of him on Skype.

My intuition is telling me, you are part of this game, BTS/PM. If so you shouldn't be posting on uF anyway. If not, I apologize, and should maybe remind you, that it is just a game. Wink

 		I don't understand what that has to do with the riddle he gave us at all... So the 'surprise' was getting to skype with DNC himself? I'm kinda pissed I missed that...

Well using the format he gave on doiop gives this

http://suxorz.com/i4/masterpiec.gif

100/100 is when it will be ready it says

So I presume he means the 11th as it will be 11/11/11 so using his logic 11%11%11=1 the same as 100%100.

 		I only just watched the video about the book code Shocked and looked at the solved riddle.

Damn that riddle Mad I had tried "100" and "onezerozero" but not "onehundred" Mad

Has anyone tweeted MDT that the riddle is solved?

Also weakandwounded, what happened on skype?

Nothing, really, he just sat there in the mask.

Possibly OOG:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
For the past two days DNC has basically been in constant contact with me, and I assume the other girl. Saying things like, "i could love u if u were not playing a game. ø" Asking for pictures of me, acting jealous that I have a boyfriend, asking how I would react if I met him, really bizarre. I've been playing along but I do not really see how this could be part of the story line. Especially considering that all of his messages to me are private, and he has said several times that certain things he tells me are not meant to be shared with the others. He said something about he and Stonedaffection's "connection" not being legitimate because we can see their communications with each other. So I guess their "relationship" could be seen as part of the story line. Although I don't see that happening.

To be honest it seems to me that the PM, or at least the person responsible for the character of DNC, has gone off the deep end. All of this flirting garbage isn't furthering the game at all, nor is it adding anything to it. Yes, he gave me the answer to the riddle, but he has helped me with hints and such from the very beginning. It is hurting the game at the very least by clogging his twitter up with inane pictures. A good portion of the people following MDT do not even know about DNC, and now hardly anything he tweets seems to be relevant.

Even if this was planned or worked into the game to be part of the story, it doesn't make any sense. DNC has made himself out to be a loner, a killer for the sake of the balance of the world, not someone who falls for any female to message him. His behavior doesn't even coincide with any sort of mental disorder the PM could be trying to hint at. Overall, I'm stumped, frustrated, and kind of disappointed.

That's really creepy.

I'm not sure what to make of the whole stonedaffection thing, I haven't been following it fully because there's so many pictures it hard to keep track of it. He hasn't been sending me any weird flirty stuff, although I never email him. I'm not sure howthe flirting is relevant to the game either. DNC did say he wanted followers so maybe that's the point of it. Or may be it's how he chooses his victims? Or maybe the PM is trying to set it up so some of us are on MDT's side and some are on DNC's side?

Yeah, I am getting the same odd vibe if I'm honest, I sort of pulled back from tweeting him due to it. I guess the person playing DNC is just trying to act "mad", that or we have seen an on the fly retcon and DNC is now becoming someone else. I guess if the PM is out to blurr the line between game and life and make people feel akward then he is doing a pretty good job with this dating angle, but at times it feels as if we have no plot direction. Also I do worry that he might be removing the two people who have the most success at these puzzles (sometimes through hints) from the game which could grind the whole thing to a halt.

The two sides things is interesting, but how would that play out, so far we have been given no reason to support DNC so I can't see why anyone would willingly side with him.
