How do you guys see this stuff?

Also, I would like to add, that the first time I tried website, after figuring out addy, it said page under construction or something like that..... so maybe he is adding stuff as we go?

Download the Flash file and then decompile it. I've been using the demo version of Trillix (not the best of programs, but it works).

re: meta talk about originating zip code:
the only reason i brought up the information found on the "stamps.com" stamp, is that i find it incredible that someone paid $2.02 to mail out (what? 10-20 of these envelopes) when:
1. 39 cents would have been plenty of postage
2. an old fashioned stamp would have provided more discretion
3. 202 is important?? (probably not, but stranger information has been found though the postal marks)


re: flash decompiling : LOL at the finger wagging from the PM.


i remember someone saying something once about inventing a true type font in his blog not to long ago... Smile

Thank you, Coffeebean! Very Happy New link, http://musicluver325.deviantart.com/art/Test-try-one-86361700.

Also, nice finds!

Edit: Thank you Leyton for informing me that the link doesn't work. I am trying to fix that, but in the mean time, go from here. It is the first picture after the cake...

Music, your link doesn't appear to be working.

Okay I've tried every variation I could think of, relating to Satan the Lightbringer, Theatans, Scientology, Myths etc.

I just cannot crack the pw! Sad

Edit: I even attempted Twinkies for a joke... No go!

Just thought I would pop in with my 2 cents...

1) This is exactly the sort of trailhead I would expect for the long awaited game.

2) The PM would of that game would DEFINTELY be clever enough to say someone else was using his resources to host a game to throw us off the scent.

3) This could be "the Start"

4) I will not be convinced it is "the start" until I see some activity for us Darksiders....

Also I could not crack the password.

Hmm...very interesting. Well, even if this isn't BoL/SiD, it seems like it could be cool. So I'll hang out!

I'm almost positive that it is related...see the darkside thread for an update there on source of that quote...but there was one relevant to this one I found on this site:

http://dc-mrg.english.ucsb.edu/WarnerTeach/E192/leguin/leguin.html

which is this:

Yin Yang Symbol:


" 'Do you know that sign?' He looked at it a long time with a strange look, but he said, 'No.'
'It's found on Earth...It is yin and yang. Light is the left hand of darkness...how did it go? Light, dark. Fear, courage. Cold, warmth. Female, male. It is yourself, Therem. Both and one. A shadow on snow.'" (267)


Not sure what it has to do with the Matrix but I do know that matrix isn't the password into that site Laughing

OK, the question about the $2.02 postage is this:
How could it be right???


Well.... dun dun duuuunnn... you can pay a service to mail your letters from different places all over the world.. That way There isn't a *miami* postmark on all the letters.....


Oh yeah EDIT: I do believe that a birdy did tell us that even though letters ***may*** get mailed out, that the game will not be actually ready for a week or two....

All over the world there are people, who call themselves freemasons and believe they are spreading the light, but they are actually very much afraid of the light. This film tells about what kind of light and how the Emissaries of Jahbulon spread it around themselves and how it affects us. The film is an exciting excursion to some of the most powerful Masonic lodges in the United States and in Europe.

Jüri Lina's new documentary film: "The Lightbringers. The Emissaries of Jahbulon"


I'm a mason. There is a ton of stuff out there that isn't inflamitory. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, this kind of stuff just hurts.

And I can tell you if this is what the ARG is about I'm not going to be able to play...

Another confirmation that it's probably BoL/SiD...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Reverse IP brings up DLI and Brainclouds. So now nobody else should do that. *ahem*

Looking forward to seeing what the shadows get...
