 		I tried when it was first posted, but aside from reducing the anagram to anathemi (assuming 'swan' is in the key phrase), I can't think of what else might work. I've tried regular words, hoping to see the start to a decoded set of characters, but no luck. Of course I may have missed something... 3 or 4 letters at least should be enough to indicate a potential first word. *shrug*

 		Task 4 is up if anyone still feels like doing these Razz

Quote:
As society becomes more introvert and selfish the spaces around us become more neglected. Consider your local surroundings and act to improve or restore them in some way.

This could be as simple as clearing the litter from the streets around you. Perhaps there are broken signs or a damaged bench that needs to be repaired that could be reported to the council?

Often we have little impact on our surroundings so this task may prove challenging but try you're best and submit a report as a thread on this board and remember to applaud the work of other Cygnets as you strive to improve the world around you.

Hi guys,

People keep asking about my posts on my blog! :S

Well I can't tell you exactly incase veritas or
someone intercepts these mails but basically the quote
in the most recent post is a clue for the post before.


Hope this helps! Surprised
Steph

Subject: news and wierdy picture o.0

Hi everyone,

Alex has been rescued by some SWAN agents and he's at
the bunker resting. I'm so glad he's safe! Thanks
guys. he's given me the emails of those of you who
have emailed him, he's tired at the moment he's had
quite an ordeal but he figured you would want to know
that he is ok!

They have given me permission to return home and
search for anything my father might have left behind,
as I explained I would in my blog. If you're still
having problems reading it, the quote in the most
recent entry is a clue to the keyword, bit like when I
left the poem that time before. ^^

So far the only thing i have found here at the house
is a briefcase i can't find the code for (3 digits on
each side, so 6 digits in total :/). I searched my
dad's computer and found an odd picture called
briefcase which i have attached, maybe he left it as a
reminder for himself, or maybe he knew something was
about to happen and left it as a clue? i don't know...
see what you make of it :S

Steph

The text in the picture looks like Webdings or Wingdings or something.

 		okay guys, done it

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
keyword=whatsinaname
thanks for all the names everyone. david turner, not sure if he is the one being locked up by swan but from the messages he had with jessica hilton it seems likely. jessica hilton however still worked here.i say worked because i came clean and told my parole supervisor everything you guys had told me and showed him the bridge clubsite... so anyway she's been taken into questioning and there's a good chance she can tell swan where alex is so they can go and rescue him. i didn't have much time to mention before but swan seem quite well "equipped" they're like part religion part scientists but they also seem to be part covert operations squad as well. everyone who's an "agent" seems to have a handgun! anyhow finally
the name colyer has a strong significance to me - it's my surname! as some of you knew already my father according to swan used to work for them and he also went missing a few months ago i can only presume that it's him. turner and hilton's conversation suggest that turner might have done something that i'm not prepared to consider right now. they also mention how ever that this vor rather "veritas" that they were talking to, helped escape and are now taking orders from to capture alex etc. was my father's experiment. except my father was a progammer. does that mean what i think it does? i'll search the house to see if he left anything behind before his disapearance. May be hidden


all these names, i'm bloody confused.
lmao.

THe names confuse you? It's the fact that there are no spaces which pisses me off, also a major headache.

 		Cissmiace, I hope your mom's okay!!!
The Shakespeare quote is from Romeo and Juliet, and is spoken right before the balcony scene. Not sure that helps, but there it is.

 		Tried anagramming the webdings letters. Didn't find anything relevant (but I did get bored after a while :p).

Best finds:

Carrot Evidently
Verdantly Erotic
Cad Riven Lottery (which we shall enter and win a dishonorable Ubisoft worker)
...and to sum my efforts up: Relevancy To Dirt

Okay, after a couple more tries, I finally passed the initial test (I misunderstood one of Mirror's posts and thought that ANY set of answers w/ a certain number of As, Bs, etc. would pass, regardless of order Dunce ). I'm waiting for mod approval to get on the forum, but I'll be trying to catch up to you guys.
