I opened the .fla files using my flash suite. Nothing too revealing.

The googlebot.fla just shows the google start page with triska
biblios
written in a box.

The enyon.fla shows the cenyon scribe page with EVENT 13 written at the bottom. TJ's is written in the first moon phase graphic on that page.

OK, this may be a HUGE stretch, BUT
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

On the signup/codes page it says "the number you are calling knows you are waiting"
If you view the source of that page it now says to redirect to the cenyon scribe page. If you translate the hidden message of "TJ's EVENT 13" into a telephone number you get: 857-383-6813

It's been implied Graeme was supposed to call some number today and there have definitely been a few phone numbers given...It's a thought, anyway.

Yeah, except that's an American-style number. And we're fairly certain the makers of the game are in the UK. Right?

Besides that, I just tried calling the number and it's not connected.

no because the other numbers are to colgate university

Has anyone figured out the code on Cenyon's scribe page? Because if in that first "moon phase" you copy it and paste it you get TJ's. Now if those characters stand for TJ's, wouldn't it be logical to think the other figures stand for other letters?

Alright crew, I'm out. I'll return later this evening. Maybe Graeme will be back by then and have made the phone call or received the package...

Great Googley Moogley

Blessings Abound!

Either my flash player is buggered or my brain's on holiday, but I can't get that http://www.vibration13.com/triskabiblios/secure/themostcomplicatedpuzzleinHumanHistory.swf to play on my box.
If I open it w/a text editor, there are some VERY interesting bits of text, though.
Code:
g o t o A n d S t o p ( 1 9 8 1 )

Code:
l a z y
 L a c e z
 w o z e r e

Code:
g o o g l e / t r i s k a l


Code:
m a d e u p a d d r e s s = t r a v e l t h e w o r l d w i t h m o n t y . c o m ;
 
 t r a c e ( U R h e r e . c o m ) ;
 
 s i n - t a x   e r r o r . r e p l a y t a p e

Anybody able to open or work w/the file?

Triskal is from a book called This Present Darkness. He was an angel, along with Krioni.

From Amazon:

This Present Darkness, by Frank Peretti, is among the classic novels of the Christian thriller genre. First published in 1986, Peretti's book set a suspenseful standard in spiritual warfare story-telling that has rarely been met by his contemporaries. Set in the apparently innocent small town of Ashton, This Present Darkness follows an intrepid born-again Christian preacher and newspaper reporter as they unearth a New Age plot to take over the local community and eventually the entire world. Nearly every page of the book describes sulfur-breathing, black-winged, slobbering demons battling with tall, handsome, angelic warriors on a level of reality that is just beyond the senses. However, Christian believers and New Age demon-worshippers are able to influence unseen clashes between good and evil by the power of prayer. Peretti's violent descriptions of exorcisms are especially vivid: "There were fifteen [demons], packed into Carmen's body like crawling, superimposed maggots, boiling, writhing, a tangle of hideous arms, legs, talons, and heads." This book is not for the squeamish. But for page-turning spiritual suspense, it's hard to beat.

I'm really getting torn on this one...
The whole triskabiblios site is one level down from vibration13.com.
On the surface, that'd make me think we're just plain done.
Why then would there be new content, with current dates on the TB tree?
Maybe Toby did the work, today (before) he told us all it was a hoax (Yesterday).

I don't know... I was about to give up until I noticed the source page for "themostcomplicatedpuzzle" is (Ibelieve) a page of wingding code. I could be grasping at straws, but I'm hoping this is for real and not just a convoluted attempt at a game.

what is themostdifficultpuzzleintheworld? bibilo seems like a connection but it may be too remote depending on what themostdifficultpuzzleintheworld is.

with all this going on its hard to keep hope that this is still up. but the updated dir is promising.

Who, me? I'm no expert... I'm new to all this ARG stuff. I just happened upon it when Graeme posted it. I found it the morning it started and have been glued since then.
