I got a response that said I needed to show up in the chatroom they listed on February 5th at 2pm EST sharp.

Gave me a unique number for the contest.

I emailed and asked about the 16 posters message that was found on the link hidden in the rules page source. I just got this reply.

Quote:
There are 16 posters which I have hidden in separate cities around the world. Once the contest is over, you will start receiving clues as to their whereabouts. Alone, the posters mean nothing. But together they will lead you back to me, in a different location of course.

More information as to why I have chosen to hold this contest will come over the next month or so. Some will not wish to receive this information. This is why I will be placing the information on the contest site.

There is already some information there, other then the 16 posters which you mention. It's just a matter of finding it.

There are some that I do not wish to see this information, so it must remain hidden. I will explain more about that in the future.

LAX


Sounds like there is more stuff there to find.

i cant help but look at "y'ore nights even" as an anagram....unfortunately I can not get anything that makes sense out of it. The fact that I can get the word "revenge" makes me think....but unfortunately, again, I cant find any words that fit the full anagram..(assuming it is an anagram) maybe someone else will have better luck?

I've tried putting the phrase through an anagram generator but with no success on the entire phrase.

Got words like every, everything, even, seven, eight, one, revenge, rose, event, etc.

Nothing that really fitted the whole phrase. I think we need to look more closely at the apostrophe.

ok so we are dealing with an anagram. I fired an email off to LAX suggesting his signature "there is more to be seen" is more than just a simple signature. I also commented on the signature from the website "y'ore nights even" and how I figured it was an anagram. His reply back was an exact duplicate of the first 'thank you for entering email' but this time his signature was

Quote:
Sincerely;

LAX
"managar"


which is obviously an anagram for 'anagram' Surprised

I notice it says 'y'ore' how about getting rid of the apostraphe which I'm guessing would make is your. How about an anagram of 'your nights even'?

There are many possible answers. However, only one is correct. As soon as you figure out which one that is, you will know for whom I am doing this for.

Sounds to me like a person's name will be involved. So far, I've found Steven (or Steve), Vinny, Henry. There have been some anagrams that actually make some sense. For example, "there goes Vinny" and "give henry's note". I try them at the end of the URL but haven't got anything yet. Just wanted to get this posted in case it helps somebody.

Also, from what I have found, the word "yore" is usually written without an apostrophe...so maybe the apostrophe was inserted for a reason and is part of the phrase we are looking for...like in the case of "give henry's note". Just something else to consider.

Are we sure that the anagram phrase is "y'ore nights even" and not "gthere is more to be seenh"? Although, if we are looking for a Proper Name, "y'ore nights even" seems to be a more appropriate length.

another email....am I missing something?

Quote:

You already know what the answer is, Mr. Nielson (atleast the most important part of the answer). This is one thing that I can assure you of.

The possibilities are only endless if you do not recognise that everything's there for one reason... to keep you guessing.

It really is important that you figure this out on your own. I can assure you that I do not know everything. So, there will be some things that I will not be able to answer for you.

I would love to be able to tell you that I'm a genius. However, as per my sad attempt at a web-site, I am sure that you can see that I am anything but.

Someone once said "What's in a name?". Well, "LAX", which is what people call me, is short for "lackadaisical". That should give you some insight into what kind of person I am or how my life has ended up.


somehow i think maybe 'enduringlove' is still important.

lackadaisical - Lackadaisical comes from the expression lackadaisy...i found that kind of interesting since there seems to be a lot of stuff about flowers...dont know what it means though.

[EDIT]another email.....i hope someone else get something out of this (besides the obvious) because im not getting anywhere. I hate anagrams.

Quote:
I sit in a very dangerous position. My amount of contact with anyone outside of my normal interactions is something that I should keep to a minimum. The less attention that I draw from inside, the better I'll be at being able to figure out what exactly is going on, if anything.

I can assure you that I am spending as much time as I possibly can finding out information so that, by February, I will have as much information to give you about my situation as possible.

Until then, I really should not be opening myself up to speculation. I really don't need that kind of stress in my life.

Once February comes around, and you have found me in my other place, I will turn what information I have over to you and the others who find me. What you decide to do with that information, whatever it may end up being, will be up to you.

So, as you can see, it is important that whatever secrets I hide be found by other means then through myself. If things are what they appear to be, my secrets are much easier to find then others may be.
