 		I am currently talking to Jeff on AIM.. He got booted. I will post the whole conversation after I'm done.

Quote:
natasUF (11:32:29 PM): Hi Jeff, Did you have a good holiday?
TidusIA (11:32:52 PM): yes i did. how about yourself?
natasUF (11:33:05 PM): Pretty Good. Are you still at your parents?
TidusIA (11:33:14 PM): i see that a new directory on bullerman.net has been found
TidusIA (11:33:17 PM): yes, i go back on the first
natasUF (11:33:35 PM): Yes, we found a /hide directory. How did you know?
TidusIA signed off at 11:33:36 PM.
tidusia is offline and will receive your IMs when signing back in.
natasUF (11:33:55 PM): hello?
TidusIA is unable to receive offline IMs.
TidusIA signed on at 11:34:01 PM.
natasUF (11:34:06 PM): hello?
TidusIA (11:34:15 PM): sorry what did you say
natasUF (11:34:26 PM): I asked how you knew that we found a new directory?
TidusIA (11:35:02 PM): doug told me
TidusIA (11:35:05 PM): in an email
natasUF (11:35:27 PM): Doug is pretty smart. Any ideas on how to crack it?
TidusIA (11:35:56 PM): pssh...i havent cracked anything! i would be dead without you guys
TidusIA (11:36:09 PM): I'm dreading going back to cedar rapids
natasUF (11:36:47 PM): I see. Hey, I do have a few questions off the top of my head. We never got your last name. What is it? and have you ever talked to anyone on AIM by the name of DanIA?
TidusIA (11:37:02 PM): DanIA??
natasUF (11:37:55 PM): Yes, the obituary which I'm sure you read decoded to DAN IOWA CUT HYDE. We kind of figured the DAN IOWA might refer to DanIA, a name similar to your screen name... just a wild guess.
TidusIA signed off at 11:38:12 PM.
tidusia is offline and will receive your IMs when signing back in.
natasUF (11:38:57 PM): Jeff?
natasUF (11:44:16 PM): Hey, I guess you're still on your laptop and got booted. Well, when you get this, shoot me an email. It would help us a lot if we knew your last name.


EDIT: I stayed online til 1:15 and still no Jeff. Oh well.

 		Xurik, welcome aboard. Everything you need to know you can find at http://crfindings.wetpaint.com/

Which is a wiki for this game and I must say that NataS did an excellent job in preparing it. All the information is there and up to date. You will also find all the video's except for one. (the one where Jeff takes the first pill). Use the links on the top left corner to navigate the site. The videos we managed to recover can also be found beginning with this post: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/posting.php?p=444965&mode=topicreview&postorder=DESC#444965 And the other videos can be found at http://www.bullerman.net/videos

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Login = epiepi0 password = satellite.


So, basically we are missing only one video, hopefully we can find a way to recover it as well.

Once again, welcome aboard.

Commercial "at" symbols automagically converted for your protection. Spambots are a lot like my kids. When something goes "splat" they don't even see it.

 		New Code
There is new code on the bullerman site. obituary page.
Code:
[1]2[1]3 [1]2[1]8[2]9[2]9 [2]6[1]8[1]5 [2]4[1]7[2]9[2]9 [2]4[1]9[1]4[3]3[1]3  first fifth eighth

[3]3[1]3[3]7[1]3[1]5[1]3[1]4[1]6


I'm thinking some kind of substitution cipher. So for words 2 and 4, the only letters that would make sense would be **LL

we will sit full force cemetery... This fits but makes no sense.

 		i still can't come up with a decent substitution, if that is indeed what it is... What is interesting though. is the last word only has 3 different options.. deferment, cemetery, or cerement... So I'm thinking cemetery is correct.

 		I'm not making a connection either. I thought the first word might be JB and the second might be Jeff but after that it falls apart on me.

it's not the phone keypad, but your idea gave me another and so far it's working.

Use our keyboard with the [1] being the top row of letter keys, the [2] being the middle row and the [3] being the bottom row.

For example [1]2 would be a W (first row, second letter)

first three words are:

Quote:
We will hit


Now to see if it holds together.

 		this is what I got

Quote:
[1]2[1]3 = We
[1]2[1]8[2]9[2]9 = will
[2]6[1]8[1]5 = hit
[2]4[1]7[2]9[2]9 = full
[2]4[1]9[1]4[3]3[1]3 = force
first fifth eighth =

[3]3[1]3[3]7[1]3[1]5[1]3[1]4[1]6 = cemetery


not sure yet what first, fifth and eighth mean yet

but so far we got this:
Quote:
We will hit full force ???? cemetery.


Thanks Kona for the nudge.

 		Spec
first/fifth/eight
Spec:

first fifth eight could be January 5th, 2008 ( 1/5/08 )

Quote:
We will hit full force January 5th, 2008, cemetery.


Could that be it?

 		Maybe, but the one thing that might throw that off is that the cipher says "eighth," which is a strange way to refer to 2008. I think what we need to do is figure out which cemetery they're referring to.
