I think everyone needs to kinda take a step back, and remember that all of this is supposed to be for fun. While we are very passionate about our fun, we should always try to remain to civil to each other and to PMs (at least, to pms who are trying). Because first and foremost, we are a community. I'm sure some loyalties are being stepped on, but that doesn't mean we should take it out on one another. Or Pms for that matter.

Alright, well…I want to play, whatever this is.


So I looked at the puzzle:

There are a number of missing letters in the sentence fragments. In order of appearance they are:

I P S E E G U A

At the end of the message it says there are too many Vs in the password and to replace them with more reasonable vowels. And then....take 3 away.

I'm guessing we have to replace 3 of the Vs with some of these vowels?

although...i'm not sure why there are so many more than three letters missing in certain words. There are only 6 Vs in the password and 8 missing letters (unless i missed some, which is entirely possible)

Started another thread in the meta section so this thread can be left to game discussion and the meta opinions that have been brought up can be re-directed to this new thread.

If you click on the access database button, you are presented some kind of ASCII-art. I cannot make out what is shown on the ASCII picture though it looks like # and something else in it. Within all those characters you can find the phrase
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ACCESS DENIED as well as FIND THE KEY
I don't know yet if you have to look for the ASCII-art to find it, or if you can find it in between those characters.

i cracked it..

hey guys, i managed to crack the code

if you go look on the site its different, it turned out to be a prank. its a T- countdown to april 1st, aka, april fools.

i used the vowels that were missing out of the hints and replaced the v's with them, sure enough, it worked. kind of sucks that it was a prank though. ah well, it was fun.

Find the key eh? I found a key

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
On the front page, there is a link hidden with the same foreground/background color. Highlighting text over the whole page should show it. The page it leads to has a giant ASCII key picture, made with a lot of 7's (another Bungie thing, but easy to copy) and some other text about logon attempts.

ACCESS DENIED page has changed. It now has a block of text in the shape of silhouette. It has a white button that links to a so-called "FOUR OH FOUR PAGE" that says "nonexistence, nothing, nowhere, nullity, obscurity, out there, void". In the random letters you can find this message: Hello?Is this message getting through?please help its dark and I cannot find a way out they are coming pl****TERMINATED. Also there are the words CLUES, BEGIN, CONTACT, OBLIVION, COVENEANT, and TAKEHEADTIME, in addition to the previously noticed ACCESS DENIED and FIND THE KEY. There's music playing in the background, but the sound on my computer doesn't work so I can't hear it.
EDIT: ^ posted as I was typing. The page he mentions also has the following text:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
DATABASE RECORDS FOR MARCH 2, 2006

PASSWORD ENTRIES CORRECT: 0
PASSWORD ENTERIES INCORRECT : 1,048
USERNAMES CORRECT: RMORROW


As a test, I went and tryed RMORROW as a password. It didn't work, and more importanly, when I returned, the incorrect entries number had not changed. I suspect the data to be a fake number.

other words on the ACCESS DENIED page:

MISSING LETTERS
CLUES VANISHING
YOUR TIME IS

i've tried a bunch of combinations of the missing letters from flash page...none of them did anything.

I have been working on this for two days. I just created this account so that I can post here. I have been keeping track of my progress in a blog post. I still have not figured out the password. I hope that some of you find this helpful. Spoiler warning for anything that you might read on in the blog post.

It's The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, a videogame, if you change the HTTP it FTP you can try and sign in. I'm 80% sure the username is RMORROW but I don't know the password.

The picture is a render from TES IV OBLIVION, which is a video game. If you change the http to ftp you can try and log in I'm 80% sure the username is RMORROW while I can't figure out the password.
