Hey guys I just watched the movie Zodiac.

I think the Umbrati code is possibly using those letters...I recognize the m symbol for sure.

I think it's the Zodiac letter code.

Feel free to fish me.

Hm. I don't see the similarity. Also, I don't believe The Zodiac ciphers were simple substitution ciphers.

I got the Nyxtel welcome email, and Shining Hope.

Not sure if it means anything, but the time on the attachment in Shining Hope is 13:22, and the original message says "Date: 5 Jun 2008 13:48:36 -0700" aka PDT.

The timezone for the welcome email is also -0700.. but Nyxtel is in New York City, and should be -0400.

wait, wait, wait... i'm confused. i think i need to go back and read the wiki timeline or something. were we supposed to sign up for the lightbringers site? i thought we were umbrati and whatnot?

i think i have not been getting involved enough in this ARG for sorta being my first ARG (aside from the whole cloverfield mess and whatnot, which really hooked me).

also, just for the record, i also received the "Shining Hope" email.


Edit:
oh wow, that wiki is awesome! only took me about 5 seconds to figure out what (or at least some of what) i missed. should i put my email address in as a new lightbringer user? i'm still kind of confused on that point.

Your call. I signed up as a Lightbringer, but not as an Umbrati (via NyxTel). I wanted to play it straight, even though I read and post in both threads. Lots of UMs have signed as LBs and vice versa.

And on behalf of TeamWiki, thanks for the kind words.

@WXsniper>> Yeah, the time thing drives me nuts too, but if it makes you feel any better, it's the same on the Darklight site and was the same in LGLabs, which ws supposedly set in Boca Raton FL. I have no clue why he uses Pacific time.

ETA: Week Two recap now available on the wiki.

I searched for that phrase as a song lyric, and found this:

Also, there's a BrainClouds watermark in the upper right-hand corner.

Over on the Lightbringer thread, this blog has been found:


http://www.brainclouds.net/Valentine/

Her location is given as 'Charlotte, North Carolina', so she's definitely the subject of the earlier photo depicting that place.

Just for the record I have also been playing it "straight" (I signed up as a Ho Ho and will not try to pretend to be a twinkie), Also I read both threads but only use info that is meant for the Umbarti. In short I can think of no IG way for me to know the Lightbringers login. (Now of course I have used it and looked around the s but I wont register or use that mail server)

I certainly would be the last person to say one way or the other is the correct way to play, and certainly I am interested in what is going on over there too...

Also, I am glad I can make at least one person giggle from time to time.
