Alright, I probably jumped the gun here. In doing so, I demonstrated, unintentionally, the problems we here at UF have with being a little judgmental sometimes.

However, you can't entirely blame me for not clicking on the paypal link or anything. I don't have paypal account. I dont have this whole "money" thing. Why would I even bother to click?

ANyway, sorry for jumping the gun.

Actually what occured was that, because of the first topic being locked, the PM created a second thread entitled "Cynicism" with the second post that you see in this thread.

The mods simply moved the second thread over to the first after unlocking it.

I was on this afternoon as saw it, that's how I know. Smile

The site has changed slightly, and there's been another email out. There is a couple of pointers/clues towards Stan Ridgway, although I haven't yet trawled throiugh his lyrics to see if there is anything about windmills.


Well, Stan Ridgway was in a band called Wall of Voodoo.
The Rolling Stones recorded their 1994 album Voodoo Lounge at a place called Windmill Lane Studios in Dublin.

I emailed our mystery man with that info, and haven't heard back from him.

I don't know that this is a spoiler but I have deserved a trout for not using tags in the past where I should've so:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I browsed the directory where the windmill image is stored and found there is an image in there called "windmillcamouflaged.jpg".
Camouflage was a song by Stan Ridgeway


*Edit:
here is a url top the lyrics (save ya a trip to google).
http://www.stlyrics.com/songs/s/stanridgway3638/camouflage173486.html

I wrote an email asking about Stan Ridgeway/windmills and here was my response:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Hello Mountain Girl

Welcome aboard, your PLAYER ID is:

To be honest I don't really care for Stan Ridgway at all, allthough he
did
have one 'hit' record that sticks in my mind........

Good luck


Here is a a link to a windmill that was camouflaged during WWI in the UK.

I can't use a de-stegger on this PC, however I'm thinking the above seem to be strong clues to use Camoflage to de-steg the windmill pic? I tried thisa before, but couldn't find the password - possibly the Ridgway song...

I tried that but nothing. I'm guessing we have to use "Camouflage" to de-steg and then use "windmill/s" as the key or perhaps our player ID, but with what image???

Mabey, windmillcamouflaged.jpg? Wink

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the camoed image (no password) had a jpg hidden in it containing a URL http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?=Windmill&diff=541949

Edit: The windmillnew.jpg was also camoed It contains another wiki link,

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?TITLE=Windmill&diff=51419633&oldid=51419490

In one of the edits to this article is

" http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hp&cf=prev&id=1808750180 Can You Find Me? - Windmills"

which is a link to a yahoo movie write up for the halo movie.

There's also at least one more pic that's camoed (I'm pretty sure at least) but I will leave that to you guys.
