Gareth

Did anyone else notice that Gareth Blayne has changed his profile pic on facebook? It used to be a close up of a Lord bracelet.

I can make a bracelet and post it on his facebook wall. I sent him a friend request a few minutes ago.


Edit: I made the bracelet (pipe-cleaners and copy paper for the win) and took a photo, but Gareth hasn't added me to his facebook friendslist yet. Here's the photo if anyone else wants to upload it.

Hm... I put in friend requests with both Savannah Merks and Gareth Blayne earlier today, at about the same time. I've just gotten confirmation from Savannah, but not Gareth.

I hope this isn't going to be one of those tasks that seems like it's going to be a breeze but winds up taking all week (postcard for Erin, anyone?).

Just thought I'd throw it in there that TITANIUM is commonly alloyed with copper, which is one of the bracelets one offer.

Also, yeah, Gareth Blayne's page will probably play a role. (EDIT: I mean, maybe another role)

Nice bracelet Mochi! Can I have one?!?!?!

FractalP, one of these fabulous pipe-cleaner-and-paper bracelets can be yours for three easy payments of $99.95! Just kidding.

No word from Gareth. Maybe he'll add me tomorrow.

Today's DI:

Quote:
The Bible chooses you. Even
the man who believes in a
confederacy of dunces will
have one.


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It's true. John Kennedy Toole, author of A Confederacy of Dunces, did have a Bible of sorts; his only other published work was titled The Neon Bible, giving us NEON to go with yesterday's TITANIUM.

Given this, I'm guessing it'll be pretty clear this week whether or not we have a final answer for any given DI; if it's not on the periodic table, keep looking. Very Happy


Incidentally, since we're dealing with the Merchandise Center this week and not the Outreach Center, it's looking like we may be taking down Savannah before Leon Lutz after all. No wonder she's been getting more aggressive!

By Jove, I think he's got it!

Definitely keep an eye out for periodic table references, this is too coincidental, and nothing is coincidental in this game. I've attached a table for reference Very Happy

Current elements:
TI NE

Anyways, is Gareth Blayne's new profile pic the one with:

  • A can
  • A checkered notepad (graph paper?)
  • Flowers
  • Logs


No theories there, maybe we might have to wait a bit?

EDIT: Errm, I don't know if anyone has noticed, but everyone on the About Us page is listed as Vice Presidents... wow, Pastor Grace is 'President' of all of those sectors? O_O_O

My observations (in chat yesterday): the logs are cut to show the growth rings, the tin can has no label to better show the rings around the sides, the flowers are sunflowers with their spiral seed pattern, and the graphpaper is shown to emphasize the spiral binding of a notebook. Rings and circles and spirals, hmmm. (btw, also thanking the chat for linking me to the image, since I do not "do" Facebook -- could someone bring that photo here as an attachment?)

it may just be referring to themethod of solve for gareth's bio... like a spiral binding (or like the header on the bio image), rather than "shift the left side down", just read top to bottom, alternating left and right side for each line.
dunno, connection to garteh's icon is a little vague, but not sure what else it might refer to at this point... spiral is definitely a common theme to each quadrant, and could be related to the bio solve (as if folding the bio down the center and reading 'around' the 'binding' top to bottom). *shrug*

Alright, I think I might have gotten something but not sure what to do with it.

I noticed in the video that the woman actually dials 1-888-648-4788, the main virtue number instead of the one on the screen, 645
(There's a new message about accessing new information via text, but I haven't received any text)

So I substituted the 8s for 5s in the main number "1-888-645-4755" and got an odd message

"642-3420" is not a working number. Please consult your directory and try again." It doesn't sound like a real error message though, which was why I was suspicious.[/quote]

Then I tried using the Ft. Lauderdale area code 954 with the above number and got some kind of a conference call login message. Not sure if I'm on to something or travelling into OOG land. Laughing

Also, when you dial 1-888-647-4788, it's a fax number. (Shipping and Handling in the video is $6.47)
1-888-647-4777 is also a valid number, but it feels OOG

New facebook status update from Savannah.

Quote:
Savannah Merks is just trying to get through the week without having to deal with the authorities on any other issue.


Methinks she's starting to feel the pressure.

Another thing I was thinking... I still haven't received any word back from Gareth. Maybe in order to be added to his FB flist, one would have to send him a specific message with the request? That might have something to do with his profile image. Is anyone else on his list yet?

Yeah, I don't think anyone is friends with Gareth. I'd bet we have to send him the correct "personal message" when we add him as a friend.

Either that or hack into his Facebook account like we did Erin Cole's email Wink
