I may be taking this all the wrong way, but I have no way of contacting Eli Pruitt, in any way shape or form. The only person who I know has his e-mail address is currently away, and I'm told there is supposed to be a meeting tonight after our tasks are finished.
Both yours, and ours.

Contact was successful.

My newest transmission is queued for broadcast as we speak.

I must rest now. Today has been exhausting, but I am filled with exaltation from Omnis. We may save him yet.

I wonder if it was just a slip that he/she/it mentioned Saladin twice?


Oops, my fault, I don't think it flashed Saladin twice, that was my slip up, I was rewatching and writing them down as I caught them.

I'm going to go over everything I missed while I was in class tonight, and then I'll update this with what I find out afterwards.

Log Video March 10th

We have a new character, Jessica, someone who wants to work "with" Jack, not have Jack work on her, so probably not a patient. Also, Eli mentions himself dying, shortly afterward, and so we can assume that right now Eli is either one of the conspirators who died in the aftermath, or much more likely after Scindo's log tonight (who I haven't *totally* ruled out the possibility of being a future life of Jack), Caesar himself.

We need to call this voice mailbox number and leave messages of current events, like *stifled chuckles* our politicians, or maybe the weather in Ohio. I don't know, but I'll write a voice mail I'll call and leave tonight in the next edit of this post.

My voicemail to Eli wrote:

Hi Eli, or should I maybe say "Salve Caeser"? (sounds like "sahlwhey kai sar") I think the news today might cheer you up, and maybe that won't hurt your situation. This is from March 11th 2008 if you didn't catch it in the lead in, and this is the year of the presidential race. Two big dems are battling it out, a familiar one, Hillary Clinton -yes, that one- and Barack Obama and things aren't going well for Hillary.

Funny thing though, Hillary had the brass to offer VP on her ticket to Obama the other day, but only if he sharpened up his ability to handle national crises. Even more hilarious, and ticklingly ironic, the governor of New York was linked to a massive prostitution ring, specifically the 4,000 dollar Cinnamon, by wire taps he himself approved.

Enough about the circus, there was also a wickedly awesome cum horrifyingly disastrous snow storm that swept through Ohio over the weekend. Really though, they go into lockdown when 10 inches hits the ground. I like the snow but I bet that much snow in Rome about your time would cause some serious mayham. Oh, and Britain's weather is terrible, 95mph wind hailstorms terrible. I saw a picture of a man actually blown off his feet from it, but it made me chuckle. I hope this is enough for now, but for next time, I hope it is kosher to ask a question. What details will help you more about now, the mundane or the significant?

Oh and one last thing, a four month long writer's strike ended recently, which involved nearly 12,000 people, the biggest since 1988, and so new South Park is starting again on Wednesday!


And though it might not mean anything, as I'm sure you don't have to be local to get a voice mail box, 641 is for big chunk of area in the middle Iowa.

 		Here's something I didn't catch before. Anagrams.

Arecas - Caesar.
Lither - Hitler.
Coarsest - Socrates.

I don't know why I didn't catch that, I love anagrams. Eli is Caesar, I take it, and we need to get him current. I'll be leaving my voice-mail as soon as I can find something useful to announce.

...wouldn't it be funny if we made up a completely false present, like that Google was an all-powerful deity being worshiped by rabid believers, threatening to take over the world?

I wonder how he would take that.

 		Here's the log file: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHAfA2G8bFI

This is very interesting. Did Scindo Memoria post that video, or Jack? Because Jessica is speaking to Jack in that voice recording.

Oh, interesting... I just realized we were given a number to call to help Eli out, but what if Jack did the same thing? We are listening to messages on Jack's voice recorder, what if we are being listened to on Eli's? Razz

 		Did anyone try calling the phone number?

This looks like some sort of time travel thing...

All these videos posted under 44BC on youtube have been from Scindo.

 		I don't know if I'm the only one to call the number? But I called today, and left that voice mail I wrote a few posts up.

 		Has anyone seen the new video ?

http://youtube.com/watch?v=wK8uANxMzhI

I'm new to this ARG, but I've seem to have caught up. There's a code in the description of the video:

It looked like a base64 code to me, but all I got was this:

I definitely see two faces in there. Who could they belong to?

That would make sense, especially considering the only message in the video.

Is it just me, or does the face on the left look like Bin Laden? XD I don't know. The guy on the right definitely has glasses. They're both appearing to be middle aged. Anyone recognize these faces?

My first thought was Fidel Castro. I live in Miami, so maybe I'm biased...

 		Possibly.

Perhaps it could be a clue to Eli's whereabouts.

Meanwhile, that code is killing me.

I'm trying to just figure what KIND of code it is, but having no experience in coding, I'm having a little bit of difficulty.

 		Scindo's Favorite Game

Well, seeing as I have no physical shell and appear only as a hallucination at my own discretion, I cannot play video games. However, I did fancy the soundtrack from a video game entitled "Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater".

If you're referencing my recent broadcast (another is coming shortly, once I go to rest) it does share something in common with my favorite video game.

Why are we wasting time? It's more precious than you human beings seem to think.


I wonder. I've never played Metal Gear Solid, so can anyone relate the game to anything in the previous video log/links?
