OT-just also looked it up. Now we've gotta find a way to use it tomorrow on all the forums so that we Nevah forget it. **elementary school nightmares tonight** Laughing

I'm hearing the same thing Amandel is hearing (or something very similar) "movement on nine (two garbled words that dont make sense backwords or forwards to me) movement on four."

Two things...

The more and more I listen to this, the more and more I hear something else. One, it sounds more like he may be saying 'YOU will open the door' in the second part and also...if you listen closely. It almost sounds like there's a wind blowing lightly in the background.

Increasing the gamma on the door shows a big red circle on the bottom left.

the movement on the fourth could be something more powerful than the dracula we are dealing with and could be the double edged sword, yea no more dracula but instead we get something akin to Bhaal or Bane(which in my view i would rather deal with Dracula than something as powerful as a Greater or even a lesser Deity

Probably people have looked at this already but wiki says:

wikipedia wrote:
SSSS can refer to:
Scandinavian Simvastatin Survival study was one of the earliest studies on the effect of lowering human plasma cholesterol by pharmacological means
Secondary Security Screening Selection, a code used by airlines on boarding cards of passengers selected for secondary security screening
In Representational State Transfer, Server Side Session State, in contrast to CSSS (Client Side Session State)
Society for Social Studies of Science, a professional organization more commonly abbreviated 4S
Society for the Scientific Study of Sexuality an acronym
In dermatology and neonatology, Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome, a severe exfoliative skin reaction caused by a Staphylococcus aureus exotoxin
Superhuman Samurai Syber-Squad, a children's television show based on Denkou Choujin Gridman
Sontaran Special Space Service, an elite military organization, considered by Dr. Who to be "carrying alliteration a little far."[1]
For its use as a Serbian political slogan, see CCCC (disambiguation)
The letters written by airline employees on airline boarding passes to signal TSA to perform an expanded security screen.
Selective Sound Sensitivity Syndrome, a type of misophonia.


The sound one, as previously mentioned, seems relatively likely as a meaning. The airline security thing also caught my eye. Maybe it's a message to be careful who we trust?

echo says, "deal with void", do you think he might mean that darkened right corner of thedoor.jpg...
The site image is greyer now imo. Manipulating,the light/dark seems more contrasted, the red(see waitress's image)receding.

Just offering this to support drizjr's theory. When this jpeg first appeared I was unwilling to lose "echo's hands" into the light**sentimental Wink **. Having done so maybe the result would have been this one anyway.

I've been trying to understand what echo is saying on ssss.mp3. I must have listened to it a hundred times by now. I definitely hear "movement on nine" for the first part, but I'm stumped on the second part.
I tried applying an echo effect on it in Audacity. It seems to have cleared up the first part a little, but the second part....? You've got wo men bon bourne??? Dunno

I hear "movement on nine", the last part sounds like it ends with " ??? on four". Confused

echo,
I'm trying very hard to understand what you are saying. I understand that there is "movement on nine". Is there also movement on four?

with straining ears,
drizjr

you opened the door


Four does sound like door...funny that I was hearing a B sound though. I wonder if it's something to keep in mind... b being a flipped d. Smile

eta: This second email from echo might as well go in this thread too as I was referring to the images above.

Dear echo,
Many spirit helpers can see a trace of Mona near the door with you.
How can we help her go through the door to freedom?

bewildered,

librarian already helped

conversation with distortion delayed


So it seems that whoever or whatever trot is was powering distortion and blocking her way.

While the source code remains "....i am echo" all trace of his hands have vanished from the door Sad Whatever is/are forming there remains subjective atm yet I ran a series through some gradients/filters for a looksee.

What I'm seeing there is best seen at a short distance from the comp screen. Wink

I think today's door is the original one from back in September when the page was found. Both pictures have the same size and the hidden phone number & 'patience'-message.

@Trillian--Could be,just took a 2nd look at waitress's post from that time. The message has always remained untouched. I sorta remember snagging it and later waitress found the angry "Mona" face there. The angry face isn't present on this one imo yet the rest is similiar. Dunno
