If you go to Chatsy's profile there is a message hidden in his description that reads:

"Sometimes ya gotta just get on your bike and see where you end up
I'm going deeper under ground there's too much pressure in this town i'm goin i'm goin i'm gone"

New pages up at Alice's Evidence

Page 20 is Jennifer's employment sheet, Page 35 is a bunch of what looks like website source code.

Edit: The URL http://www.moa.org is buried in the code, but that address is a placeholder for a registered but not developed site. Doesn't seem like it leads anywhere.

Ok I got two bits of info:

1: I wrote Alice about the symmetric key I mentioned in an earlier post found on AE (Alice's Evidence) and I got a response.

"Hi Alice,
Page 21 told me that you have a symmetric key... may I use it? "

Her response:

;3.^!.IV.>l()0'l;. (Note I did not include " " so as not to confuse anyone)

I've got a friend who says this is a incryption/decryption key and that he may know how to use it. Because Alice has the same key we may be able to send and recieve coded messages to her.

2: On Chatsy's profile the words "I'm going deeper under ground there's too much pressure in this town i'm goin i'm goin i'm gone" These are lyrics from a song entitled "DEEPER UNDERGROUND" By JAMIROQUAI

Only trick is that the real lyrics say panic not pressure Not sure what that means, but its something else to chew on. I'll get with my friends and see about encoding a message using the key.

Ok, looks like I should have checked my email before posting because I have one more clue...
I contacted the people at powerpatio.com, I don't have the original text that I sent them (do'oh!) but I said something along the lines of: I am interested in using the company Identicyption, but their server is down and I have no way to contact them. Do you have a name of someone you dealt with there or someone I could contact?

I recieved two replies:
The First:
"To whom it may concern,

I received your email via web form regarding Identicryption. I am pleased to inform you that we have been extremely happy with the service provided by the company over the past few months.

They provide a very professional service with help always at hand. Meetings are conducted in a very business-like manner by Robert Dunne and their technical staff of Sean and David are proficient at their job.

Only in the past few days have we had any issues with the server but we have been in contact with Sean at Identicryption who is dealing with our account queries.

I hope this is of some help to you.

Regards,
Peter Powers
Manager Powers Patios
"
The second:
"
To whom it may concern,

Apologies - I forgot to attach Sean's email address.

sbrowneSPLATidenticryption.com

I hope I have been of service to you.

Regards,
Peter Power
Manager Powers Patios
"
So looks like we now have Sean's email address and his last name "Browne" Not sure what to say if we emailed him, doubt the direct approach would do any good may even tip our hand... Any ideas?

Anywho, need sleep, maybe the ol'subconcious will come up with something. Oh, and I am new so let me know if this stuff should be covered up as spoilers!

[jelloarm]

You only need to cover it up if it's a solution to a puzzle. And we definitely have no solutions...

I feel like the Chatsy lead is a red herring. I don't think it was a deliberate move to hide things in his profile, I think it's using black text and forgetting he has a black background. The message on David's prof... more confusing, I guess. Maybe his is IG

I sent a similar message to Powers, claiming that I was wondering about using IC myself and wanted to sort of get a reference, and my letter was a little different:

[theyeti]

What do you mean by "IG"?

Well that seems to confirm David's opinion of Sean being incompetent. I suppose it could have been apart of David's plan to cause a security issue and "conveniently" be sick in order to force Sean to handle it. However, my conspiracy meter is twitching on this one too and IC is covering up David's absence.

I was thinking about sending Chatsy an email buddying, up to him and asking how he found out David is joining the army. Hopefully we can kill two birds with one stone: where he got his info from, and clarify what he meant by "el armo"

EDIT:Anyone else curious why a patio company would need some fairly high level indentity incryption? I mean their website is only really an advertisment, they don't do anysort of ordering or online payment.

IG means "In Game". It refers to activities, communication, characters, emails, events, etc. that are related to the game's reality.

OOG means "Out Of Game". That refers to things that might appear to be part of the game, but in fact aren't related at all.

In the ARG world it is pretty important to keep these two things seperate, especially given the underling philosophy of "This Is Not A Game". When you are livin' large IG, you speak, react, and solve problems in the reality of the game. Eveybody gives/gets a lot more slack when you're OOG.

[alegriavida]

I wonder if there's a reason "Alice" is posting the evidence in the order she is. It all seems to be coming from the same notebook. And how is she getting access to all of the information? I don't really have any answers. I'm just sort of thinking out loud.

New pages are up on Alice's Evidence.

[Mar_Vell]

The non-english words in the html source code are Irish Gaelic if that helps at all.

[jelloarm]

Ok, I think I have this latest Alice puzzle almost cracked, but I can't quite figure out the final twist...
