I could be totally off here, but that might be the Spiral of Life.

EDIT: nvm, I took another look and I'm totally off. On closer inspection, I think its a set of three small concentretic circles on top of a larger one.

I pretty much got what Shy did. As near as I can tell this is the US import version, the Tiger carbine, marketed as a hunting rifle. Ran through 10-20 pages on google images and got nothing like the carved stock. Looks like a death's head and the letters OG to me, but at a certain point I don't know if I'm manipulating the image or vice versa...

Wiki article. Link.

I just did this up for reference, it's three circles in three circles with two circles behind (all perfect circles). It looks kinda close......



ETA- the background circles should be smaller

Wow...I think that's exactly it. Can you give us more information on it and where you found it please.

I just did it in illustrator, tried to duplicate the design somewhat.

It could be the Umbrati (or Nyxtel) symbol, something that we wouldn't find online.

Oh that's right...I was so excited thinking someone had found it that I didnt read it ok lol

But really thank you for that Very Happy ...makes it easier to have an idea of what we are looking for and I think you are right about it maybe being a logo that we didn't see yet.

Here's my interactions with Jaana...

Quote:
Dear Jaana,

Concerning the information that I've received from fellow Bringers about the incident in the Tunnels, I noticed that the information in the files seem to be rather like a series of e-mails that assorted Bringers have been receiving from a mysterious cryptic stranger known only to us as Chiaro Oscuros. Do you have any idea who this is?

Yours in the Light,
SPK01320

We've just been made aware of this individual, and no we don't know who he is. There seems to be a registered user in the system with that name, which is impossible (all new members are registered with the "spark" designation of "SPK").

If you have any further information on this individual, please let us know. Email me at jaanaSPLATlightbringers.co.uk, as this system may no longer be secure.

- Jaana

Because of the untimely death of Jason Nyx, Chief Executive Officer of Nyx Telecommunications, our offices will be closed for the remainder of Monday the 9th and all day Tuesday, June 10th.

For all Nyxtel employees in the area, there will be a ceremony held in the cafeteria at 5pm today.

This will unfortunately delay the recruitment processing we were going to begin this afternoon, and although we do need the new personnel we have internal priorities that require our attention at this time.

In order to ensure the security of future communications and recruiting materials, please install the attached encryption key as some corporate materials in the near future may require it for security reasons.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in this difficult time.

Adam Nyx
Chief Operations Officer
Nyx Telecommunications


Just got this one in

Using the key on Recr002.enf gives us a pic (will attach in a moment)

It has a Brainclouds logo, this led me to try pheonix, phoenix, and then firebird which worked!

http://www.brainclouds.net/Firebird/

Edit: see the new thread for the pic http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=539402#539402

Edit2: the new key can be found on the wiki, http://bolsid.wikidot.com/encryption-files

New e-mail from Chiaro named Blinded By the Dark

Quote:
H003: Adam?
A005: Yes?
H003: I just looked at your recruiter trials. You're not serious, are you?
A005: I haven't had much time to do something proper.
H003: We're recruiting field agents and operatives, not kindergardeners.
A005: I've had some recruits that were unable to READ. Now you're being picky?
H003: But, come on...
A005: The way I see it, it's Law of Averages. For every village idiot there's a Rhodes Scholar.
H003: I hope this isn't a mistake.
A005: Look, we need as many recruits as possible. Someone's going to pay for what happened, and we need all the help we can get.
H003: Fine then, I'll leave it to you. I don't have the mind for this today anyway.
