Umm...whoa! How did that get there? Shocked

Guess I didn't look at the source thoroughly...and for some reason one of the pics looks like it's from SimCity.

For those as confused as I was regarding the above image, if you click on the txt file posted above (http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/files/feedbacksource.txt) in INTERNET EXPLORER (firefox doesn't work Razz

FF + IE Tab extension does), the text will have the parrot et al background.

Still have the bizarre 100pg text blocks though.

Oh geez, I am confused again Shocked

This is the website
http://www.subject180287.net/feedback.html

and this is the source?
http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/files/feedbacksource.txt

Why is it just the same blocks of letters but on a different background?

for the record I'm at work (shhh, don't tell) on a Mac using Sierra and I got the text on the parrot/city/locker room guy(?) background, too. But when I select "view source" all I see is I guess Java programming with the text blocks.

I'm confused as well...I viewed the source from IE, saved as a text file, named it feedbacksource.txt for all to share, so it's exactly what's in the source code. What, then, is the direct URL for the BG image, because http://www.subject180287.net/bg.jpg is just the brain map.

I understand it now.

If you look at the source code at http://www.subject180287.net/feedback.html

you see:

the page background in the file is set as a "relative link", which means it just takes whatever root url you're looking at and pastes "bg.jpg" on the end.

It just so happens that the unforums site ALSO has a file called bg.jpg, so when you view the file from here, it throws THAT image in the background.

Ignore it, it means nothing!

OK...that explains it. Makes sense.

Okay, I don't know if this helps, but if you look at the text in the first text div, each line is a string of repeating letter patterns.

However, until a certain point, the first, second, sometimes third, and last iterations are different (the first-third iterations are either missing letters, or contain a letter that is not present in the other iterations, and the last one is truncated). I don't know if it means anything, but here's the text from the first div section arranged to better show it:

Ok, one more question then - was the revealation of these new urls the result of "our" uploaded video or has that not happened yet?

Couple of observations:

1. Each code block (if that's what they are) has 25 lines from what I can tell, except block 7, which has 24. - there may be others, I haven't counted them all yet but a limited sample suggests the rest have 25.

2. As Phaedra pointed out, there are minor variations within each line but each line is very different from the next. However, there appears to be some kind of cycling every 8 lines.

Line 1 from Phaedra's example above:
jJosPOM
jJosPOM
JosPPOM
JosPPOM

What the formula is and whether it runs the entire the way through the code I can't say, again though, a limited, quick and unscientific sample indicates that it may do. Well that's my two bits, handing back to the crypto-fiends now...

Just another observation, even if it is obvious: the fonts they are using are Courier New and Courier mono. That could be just a coincidence (I know, I know, no coincidences), but usually you use those fonts because you want all of the letters to line up exactly--no giving less space for lowercase "L", etc. That may be so that it looked like a nice block on the page, but then again, maybe not--it may be because the placement of letters in the block is important.
