 		[SOLVED] whatwewerelike and looking glass
this is the mirror image of what was found on
http://www.freewebs.com/morganparanormal/whatwewerelike.htm

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Richard is leaving for school today. I asked him if he was
going to forget about me. He said he wouldn't because we're
twins and twins are like two sides of a mirror. You can't
have one without the other. Then he told me that the Tall
Man says that he is like the glass in between. I don't know
what that means...


(found by the folks in the Chat room.. I think it was Hikari? not sure)

also I grabbed this
from
http://www.freewebs.com/morganparanormal/lookingglass.htm

Vigenere with key of "thelie"

Richard became obsessed with his missing hand, and, it has come out recently, attempted to kill Eric several times during their childhood. Arthur Artemes, concerned about his son?s agitated mental state sent him off to boarding school. This did not however seem to do him any good, and when he returned for the holiday, that was when the first real tragedy struck.

 		When someone who was in chat can get around to it, could you please post the puzzle/solve that led to these pages?

Very Happy

 		please update, its amazing how fast this is moving along and how easy it is to get lost, especially with everything getting solved in a chat room. I'm trying to follow and help out but it seems if I get off for a couple of hours I am now totally lost when I come back. What became of the puzzle from this morning with the random letters and the capital I? What are we currently working on? The subjects of the board don't follow a coherent path. Sorry to bitch. Confused

the tap is 0 and the taptap is 1, which yields 00110010, or binary for 2.

 		Apparently sometime earlier tonight there was an update on looking glass.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
key is "thetallman"

i stared down at the limp, seemingly lifeless body of my brother, and i noticed what, in my panic i had overlooked. at the end of richard's arm, has bad arm, was a hand that looked as though it were made of the moon's shadow.

i glanced up at the trees where the tall man lurked, frightened, but also angry. "go away!" i ordered, but to no effect. i glared at him, but my deep green stare had not effect.

something grabbed my ankle. it was the ghostly hand that adorned my brother's scared wrist. but richard was still limp on the ground.

i tried to pull away but it held me with supernatural strength.

"leave us alone!"

the tall man laughed.

"leave us alone!"

i pulled and pulled, but the grip on my ankle only tightened, the phantom nails digging into my flesh.. it was hopeless.

"met ly brother go!"

the voice startled me. i looked down, and saw, to my surprise and delight, my brother was awake, and the gleam of madness was gone from his eyes. he was trying to pry the ghostly appendage away from me with his real hand.

the pressure lessened. i looked over at the tall man. he seemed to hang back, almost confused. and then he disappeared, giving the strange impression of a mocking bow. the fingers around my ankle vanished. i looked down at my brother.

richard stared at the stump at the end of his arm. i could see he was trying not to cry.

"come on, let's go to bed," i instructed, allowing him his pride. pride seemed so important at that age
