I'm not sure you will be talking to her. She seemed surprised when you brought up the clock page, suggesting it was uploaded without her knowledge.
I think "our friend" might be the one you are to meet, someone (mad spec coming up) from 5th who is orchestrating the intrusions into other dimensions. Thus he's ticking zoe and Veo off, and they want him eliminated, not you. You'll be ok unless this other dude has other ideas
Anyway, that's pretty much how I read the situation. Sort of like Buffy and the Master, if you like that sort of thing.

okay.. so i read over everything today and it is my "wild
speculation" that Zoe is talking about Leo (the friend that
may need to be eliminated)
in Zoe's blog she goes on and on about how Leo
has gone all strange and then the essay says
Quote:
It is interesting that at this moment, when the Third Dimension is being overlaid by Fifth Dimensional energies, negative energies are being swept from under the carpet. Nothing will be left hidden under the carpet. That is why there is so much strife, so many problems, facing us just now.
perhaps these "negative energies" have changed leo.. perhaps "possessed"
by an "unknown".... his blog page
is, after all, called leo666... and he says
Quote:
pointless
been such a bad day today, things are just going so wrong for me recently. I just wish i wasnt here.
(and)
hello
hi this is my blog of my thoughts, as i was pushed into making one as everyone was. Got a nice template, few changes and there you go.
where is he? maybe the fifth? was he forced into making the
blog to coax us?
And after all that rambling here's my question for zoe:
has leo changed to the point that we need to be cautious?
(well, well, well, per Max Steele's IM w/leo... it is zoe we need
to be cautious of..?.. when we figure out the squares, errr if ever
at this point for me,..... i vote let's not tell zoe..

Maxsteele got to chat with Zoe on IM today:
She sent a file to him - Final Instructions.gif
In the background, He transcribed the binary to

Adding zeroes to make it divisible by 8, He found the message:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
9880261 this is needed.
Big Kudos to Max for being available to get this. What im nervous about is if this is actually from Zoe who is trying to stop the actual meeting from going ahead....
I also received the IM when I got home. It is important to note that it was written in green text, Zoe only ever writes in lilac. I admit she could have just changed the colour but its the only lead we have to decide who its from.

9880261? wtf?
What on earth could that mean? Also, the grammar isn't so great with the instructions, anyone get anything from the wierd commas and caps?
Finally, what could the blanked text say? I have worked out from the little dots showing round the edges, that the word ends with K, begins with I, and has 3 'tall' letters, the first one being the capitalised I, the second being a b, or d, or something, and the last one being the k. None drop below the writing line, so no ps, qs, or anything
Will work on it... I knew Photoshop would be useful someday!

9880261... Hmm (bad thoughts running through my head)... I live in reading, the phone numbers for which are 0118-9XXXXXX or 0118-3XXXXXX... Maybe if I pick up the phone and dial... erm...
Bad Jeb.

988-0261
i concur, jeb, i know nothing about phone numbers
in the uk but could this be a phone number...??
bluetooth perhaps?
"communication established" via phone with
instructions to position A.. (28 minutes to reach
that destination) and when
you reach position A you'll then ask for
directions...etc.(my wild guess there)
also as i read the above, it appears to me
that they want only one of us to make
the meeting?... and this is the script to follow?
okay..so
i vote that even if just one does the meeting..
we have "back-up" close by, undercover, observing.
what you guys think?

Well, I'm going to try to go along, how are we going to recognise them, or should we all wander around asking everyone in sight "Good afternoon could you give me some directions?" Heehee, sounds fun
(Or is that a bluetooth conversation with bluetooth user ID 9880261?)
Meh
Jeb

Thats largely what we did at the PPC Abbey road meeting! I have been waiting for this since the beginning so am definitely still going. I guess we just decide on the day.
Right so as a recap, the people coming along are:
Me
Jebjoya
Karlosuk
Llama
Any additions or subtractions?

So we have three options for the required "Access Name":
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
1. "Proven" - this was suggested by Zoe as Leo (or was it Veo)'s login name when she was asked about it.
2. "9880261" - The number found in the binary of that image.
3. "Beware_Not_Truth__" - from the b+w puzzle.
My suggestion is that you guys, when you do arrive, need to seperate into three smaller groups (worked out ahead of time) and have one member per group approach the contact (also worked out ahead of time). Each group tries only one of the access name choices. If nothing happens when you give the passname, just say something like "oh, right, I remember how to get there, thanks anyway" and walk off. After about 1 minute, the next group in line should send a person to approach the messanger.
I doubt it needs to be this clandestine, especially since the PMs are probably reading these boards right now (hi), but we might as well play along. The multiple group idea is so the contact doesn't think the same group is just trying to brute force the access name.
And don't forget to make sure your watches are on the correct time. I wish I could be there... but even if I wasn't helping my friend move on friday, I still would have the problem of being over 3000 miles (5500+ km) west of you Londoners.

Right, so do people want to meet up for a coffee or something before, so we can discuss what we're going to do and socialise? Any good coffee shops in Covent Garden?

OK the blanked text so far:
Io_l_o(n)(i)k
The underscores are unknown, maybe part of one of the adjacent letters?
The ones in brackets I have guessed. I think they are correct but there is not enough evidence.
I personally can think of no words that look like that. Any ideas anyone? The l could be a t which cleans up the blanks, but that still means the word is Iotonik
That's the best i can do, but those going to the meet can ask Leo (if it is him) what it means.
