The first text (Tbena Fgnatregm) ROTs to "Goran Stangertz". He's a Swedish actor/director.
BTW I missed some text from the most recent video (Pmdwmxxk16.mov ). It says"77a"

A Google search led me to http://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gφran_Stangertz

He made two films in 1977, the first one (or "a") was called "Jack".

(URL tags aren't working!)


Good find!

Using the key Jack, you can decode yrgfjinom - "prevailed" Use this in the chucklehead directory (Rhino / Jackprevailed) to unlock it. I assume he means the Gamejacker? Note: there is a typo in the page, the download url is: http://www.bristelgoodman.com/ChuqleHead/AcerivEsnuLl.dmg


Edit:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The password encrypted rar file can be unzipped using "Execute Plan 725" which is an anagram of the audio file from the last folder.


I'll check out the new video later tonight. Good luck guys!

I can't find anything in the video. The only weird thing to me is the video of Nora on the desk when the guy is talking about hazing.

The fishing postcard puzzle is strange to me. I tried googling everything on there and the only thing I could find was the last one, Mickey Finn. The other stuff seems made up. I also think that name is fake, Branchaud, possibly an anagram.

One other thing I noticed is that the file 3rfwee.rar is newer than the others. Everything else was modified in April, this was only 2 days ago. It also doesn't fit the pattern of the others, since this is a second encrypted file. It might explain why the link doesn't work, because it was uploaded quickly as a replacement. So obviously the PM is watching us and added in something extra. The filename anagrams to 3fewer, but I haven't gotten anywhere with it.

I Googled "wkw lures inc" from the postcard. Nearly all of the results led to Wong Kar-Wei a chinese film director. I've tried variations of his name as a solution, but nothing.

The name of the postcard "Trout Fishing in America" is the name of a novel by Richard Brautigan, published in 1967.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Garitri Branchaud is an anagram for Richard Brautigan.
Maybe the solution is in the book?

In the video, the first girl (do we know her name?) is reading from Ezekiel 20:26. A password? Not so far. Maybe the stories of these people are important?

Some things I noticed about the postcard:

- Rainbow trouts are Oncorhynchus mykiss not Oncorhynchus clarki. The Cutthroat trout is Oncorhynchus clarkii

- #1, teroptidae does not seem to be a real word. Looks like an anagram.

- #2, thistle swoon does not seem to be a real thing, also looks like an anagram.

- #3 & #4, nothing really stands out as being made up.

- #5, Nuclear Option sees like an anagram

- #6, KO stands out as being important

-The boxes at the bottom right seem important. Like there is something from each clue that you put into each box, and the last one has 3?

In the third video (RemzpTS) her friend calls her "Jacqueline". I put Ezekiel 20:26 together with "Trout Fishing in America" and the 26th word on page 20 of the book is "day".

A "KO" is a Knock Out and a "Mickey Finn" is a drink laced with a drug to knock-out the drinker.
Modal, if you include the heading at the top of the page, the 26th word in Trout Fishing is "funeral".

I've been listening to the audio file "NonnativeEmitter" and it has the following words:
"This transmission … rebroadcast … subject five remains … recontact must be … immediately … we must avoid termination event … end transmission"
For what it's worth.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Termination event" is an anagram for NonnativeEmitter so when we open the next directory we should be able to unlock the next video.

not sure if it is worth mentioning or not

but the newest video, with the guy talking and nora on a matchbook, is a very specific scene from the first BG video ever.

It is the scene where she is having webcam cyber sex withwhomever is on the other end, AND the one that was titled "hot girl masturbates on webcam" or something like that, which had a direct link to bristel goodman.com might be worth going back and looking at any clues in that exact scene

Also, and i know the ARG died and whatnot, but I feel as if after the first video, they showed us rumi, and i felt like the "game" or whatever was to save her, anyone else notice she is barely mentioned in anything we have uncovered, just a few snipits of video here and there
