 		I thought 'Hello World' was the first/easiest programme written by any programmer (I know I wrote a hello world when I started learning C++, gave up tho :X).

You might be on to something though!

 		Yeah, we did a "Hello World" in my Visual Basic class, too. It's probably just that, but like Obes said, you could be right.

 		I dont think it really means much, but will look at it, just don't know the language smalltalk. Besides, the library of code is called chronos, not chronokey, and it has nothing in it called the chronokey, as far as I've seen as of yet.

 		Ok, don't know where it will lead, if anywhere, but Magesteff and I are thinking that "Tiddds0fgvi- i0-v i0v-=df0-s0-=3eri03lk.dskjf09ahgn bkm4owptlg0ragk" may verywell be encrypted text, though don't know how. I am trying various vig keys, but Magesteff is thinking that if it's anything, its been encrypted twice, using 2 different types of encryption. I only know a little about these sorts of endeavors. So, if you know more, take the lead on this!

One thing that I have still not figured out is what is IG and what is OOG, concerning the boards and the chat room. Just because a character visits a chat room doesn't mean that the chat room is IG. Maybe it is considered IG only when the character is in the room, but other then that? I dunno.


the useage of IG and OOG rooms (from my limited experience...)

OOG - a room started by players and for players to discuss the game, including meta topics. PM's may be lurking but they may not interact with the players on the game (i.e. help with puzzle solves, act as if they were a player for the purpose of helping or misleading the players). Players need at least one area that they can feel free to talk about all aspects of the game without fear that the PM may be involved in the discussion. (i.e. a shill free area that players don't have to worry about anyone intentionally leading the players to a solve, or misleading the players away from a solve). It's a matter of trust between the Players and PM... PMs that violate that space intentionally generally leave a bad taste in players mouths.

IG - a room the players have where the IG characters are expressly invited to participate with brainstorming solves, talk to players and interact. Note: Generally META discussions should not happen in this room since you never know when an IG character may be there. Note: Immersion Unlimited was set up to allow IG interaction on it's boards and rooms, Unfiction was set up to be an OOG space.

Rooms that the Characters invite the players to -
a) If it is a room that was set up specifically for the purpose of a character talking to players - it is an IG space.
b) Rooms that are created by others (such as with Yarradio) who may be out of game, but not players, should be considered IG for the most part, with the realization that not all people there are IG. PMs should make allowances if players tell ZOOG people in the room about ARGs and ARG websites and not take that discussion as an invite to the OOG player discussion areas.

(Personal opinion: this ends up walking a very fine line between OOG and IG and care needs to be taken that the wrong thing isn't said to the wrong OOG or IG people ok? don't take a dump in other people's sandbox and we can all be one big happy gaming community - yes it is common sense, but there are the occassionally other people - none of us of course - who might need a reminder. Razz Chill.)

And guys don't be afraid to try lots of different things. kick around your ideas, because sometimes the only way to solve these puzzles is with collective brainstorming to give each other those little bits and jogs to our memeory that will give someone a handle on the concept needed to turn gibberish into a solve. Even if you have already explored one direction, don't be afraid to go back over it and look for things we might have missed.

O'course, I could be wrong that there were two types of encryption used, but if we don't at least run though the possibilities we may never know...

 		Okay, this may have already been revealed ((but I must have missed it if it was)) but where does the sequence "Tiddds0fgvi- i0-v i0v-=df0-s0-=3eri03lk.dskjf09ahgn bkm4owptlg0ragk" come from? An E-mail or a page source? Thanks again!

 		Just a tidbit that may have been mentioned before, but I didn't find it.

If you ctrl + A the regular black pages with text, it reveals some of the source page messages. Some seem to be relevent to the page. For example http://www.hyp3rn3xus.com/no/

 		I've more or less downgraded to lurker on this one, as I'm not fully convinced there is any maps/ papers, and this mainly seems to now be keymaker gloating, but I hope I'm wrong.

I agree - it's starting to look like the papers don't really exist. Keymaker better show us the money sometime soon...

EDIT: Hey! This is post number 100! Aw, yeah, baby! The big one-oh-oh!

I'm with you on that part. not so much because of the maps, it's moreso because I
A. Can't attend Scyne's radio broadcast's (they're too late my time, I need my sleep)
B. I really don't feel that this game has anything that intrests me (so far) and thus I can't really offer much

Not saying that I'm not still watching. Maybe I'll try to become active in it in the near future
