Got that message too, but now things got all cryptic.

Unlocked "White Rabbit" Folder in archives with "528"

Which gives the Fibonacci password as:

2134

ETA - crap, app keeps force closing when I try to view the image in the directory.

Does this unlock anything or give a new message?

Its a picture of Fibonacci.

It took a second but The Truth Teller sent me another message with an image. I cant remember how i managed to unscramble it though.
Anyway, it shows me the golden spiral and afterwards he asks
"A+B is to A as A is to B, what am I describing?"

That would be describing the golden ratio.

ETA - most of the modules now failing on the Android tablet I'm using now. Sucks that your profile doesn't seem transferable to another device even when using the same FB profile.

I didnt even try that cause I thought it was too obvious, but just now sent that back to The Truth Teller (TTT) and got a reply
Quote:
Golden Ratio is connected to all life in the Universe and is defining the Dodecahedron.
Is the universe a dodecahedron


Viewed the link and got a new message, I'll update once I have more info.

TTT Asked me about the series of frequencies and morse code on the blog.
Replied back with
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Philosophy
and he sent me a message about philosophy and a video about our universe being a dodecahedron. The video is two years old, though, so it doesn't look like there are any clues hidden.

The threads with TTT are closed, I can't reply and he isn't replying. Only open thread I still have is with the Oracle, who keeps telling me to decode an image, but isn't sending me an image. I wonder if it has to do with the PDF posted above.

Any chance you can post the scrambled Fibonacci image here? I can import images into the descrambler, I just can't open any directly from the archive for now or so it seems.

Universal Order

So I've got an image to descramble from TTT, didn't get anything from Oracle yet

'

The Platonic Solids are the buillding blocks of the Universe. The number you seek is found in the edges. Order them, add them, and the image is yours. V is a milk package, H is Rubricks, S has 8 faces, X is the Universe and Y you can figure out yourself.'

So I figure the platonic Solids in Order are Tetrahedron, Cube, Octahedron, Dodecahedron, Icosahedron

V6 H18 S30 X60 Y90

To get Oracles, I had to go to the terminal and run "Activate -surprise"

Yeah, it's a pain. Basically have to browse the filesystem to find where the app keeps its downloads.

ETA finally after many reboots was able to descramble that image, but no new messages as of yet.
