Triad

Yeah, I found that website too...I tried putting the rabbithole stuff in the cipher, but it didn't work...any ideas?

EDIT: could that code in the main pic be important?

The cryptogram on the rabbithole.html page reads:

Looks like junk to me too...but did you notice the binary in the banner? This is my first ARG, so I'm not sure how to do this too much...I tried uncamoflauging it, but I can't find a password.

I'm in, but is anyone else desperately wishing they hadn't handed us the trailhead like this? Razz

[OK, PM, we got it, you can stop posting here]

I sent them an email and I'm going to call when I get a chance... someone want to do it now?

I spent the past 15 minutes typing out the binary from the pic, and got absolute rubbish (most of them weren't even letters) when I hit decode. I unfortunately Xed out of the page, so I can't post my rubbish... does someone want to re-try?

That website is very professional-looking, so I'm intrigued by this game. I just wish the PM would leave UF alone now.

Ah, I've figured out what we're doing here. Spoilered because you may not want to know.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

http://www.thegenesiscode.com/files/The_Genesis_Code_Press_Kit_-_Christopher_Forrest.pdf

It's an upcoming book, and this seems to be some sort of side-related ARG. Triad Genomics is a company in this book. That pdf also gives emails for some of our characters, as well as a synopsis of the book. It looks good, actually... I'm interested to see how this game plays out.

That publicity pdf also has info about the ARG... it looks like it's going to be a big one. It promises email, web, newspaper clippings, blogs, phone, message boards, video, audio, and more. Also, it says that it begins August 2007... but it looks to me like we have some stuff here. Unless... that post really wasn't supposed to be given out yet, and they're trying to scramble. I dunno though. Why would they have given us a phone number then?

Well, I check it out... unless the "One" is a building number, there is only a Millennium Tower in New York and it's an apartment building.

Who wants to call the phone number or email the address on the Triad Genomics page?

I called the number....it was a recording saying that Triad Genomics is under a lockdown, and they cannot accept external calls at this time...I also called Dr. Amberigris's number, and his message says the same thing.

Got a PM from Quiz. (PM from the PM?)

Subject: Security lockdown

Text: This is the last communication I'll be able to make. They've implemented a security lockdown here at Triad, and I won't be able to provide you with any additional information until they release the security protocols. Dr. Ambergris has gone into hiding. You may be able to get through to him at 877-234-3830. Good luck.

-- QUIZ

EDIT: They refer to the good Doctor in 3rd person...who is this talking?
