First, though, do you think I should mention my contact with Gil'Gib to Jill? Kinda do a double/triple agent thing? I think I'll hold off on deciding that until I hear back form her. THoughts?

I'd say wait for now. I mean, we still don't even know if it's really her.

EDIT: Just finished updating the wiki.
Added links to the firewalls, blogs, Twitter and Facebook pages on the front page, updated the timeline, and added the latest email. whew.

I've probably missed something from the past 32 days on the timeline, but overall I think I've filled it in.
Any comments?

Dave Bowman got a new e-mail.

Dave, I'm getting reports of problems with the network still, and you people can't find the source? What do I pay you for anyway?

I don't care if you have to go through each of the twenty-some-odd firewalls with a magnifying glass: I need to know if it's coming from the inside or the outside.

Also run a check on JACOB, please. I don't want to take any chances.

I need answers now. Don't make me send you away like the others.

JACOB? A new term or have I overlooked something?

THANK YOU! I just haven't had time to keep it up at all. RL is very busy at the moment. I'll try to go through the timeline, at least, later.

Not a problem. I would have done it sooner, but like you said about RL, it does get busy.
I'm currently working on adding the emails that are on deceptech.com into collapsible sections on the email page, that should be up within about an hour, then I'm gonna call it a night.

EDIT: Done. Link.

Yeah, thanks for the updated wiki. I haven't been able to get online at home, so it makes things easier to keep up with. Hopefully my package will arrive today and I can give life to my laptop once again.

To try and narrow down who's controlling her account, I answered Jennifer's additional info request with this:

01000001 01110010 01100101 00100000 01111001 01101111 01110101 00100000 01001010 01000001 01000011 01001111 01000010 00111111

JACOB might answer, Juliette might not.

OK, so I'm wondering..... Since we've gotten the email for Dave about there still being chinks in DecepTech's armor.... Should I go ahead and approach Jill about Gil/Gib? I've rethought mystrategy. I'm thinking of offering up his application as "Hey, i know this friend... he interviewed and is REALLY good. I'm sure he could fix the Network's problems if you all would just give him a chance." Maybe get Gil/Gib inside?

Also! Got a response from Jill ("Jennifer") on FB.
Jill (AKA "Jennifer") wrote:
Nothing to report yet. "Friends" on this site do not appear to be threat. Investigation still pending.


Due to the fact that she didn't say "It's not Jill, idiot." when I called her Jill in my last message, I think it's Jill.


I wonder how they will react to the binary, though. If they'll have questions as to why you would think it's JACOB, or if they'll play along..... It will be interesting to watch.


EDIT: Hey! Idea. The person who got the Dave bowman ID Tag, try emailing Juliette back and saying that you'll check the firewalls, but you're out of town and are going to need remote access. Maybe we can get her to open up the firewall's logins.

Heard back from Jennifer with the same info request except this time with *SECOND REQUEST*
Maybe couldn't read the binary?

Answered with this, fishing around.

Hi Jen!
Sorry about the garbled message, some glitch or another.
Just found your facebook so now we can talk outside of the coffee shop.
Haven't seen you there for awhile, wanted to get the rest of the story about that "thing" you found at work. You know how to reach me.

I think my poor, sweet Jenny might be in trouble.

I came across this today:

From: jsummers@(*CENSORED*)

8BE83C
8A0822
FB883C
8A0820
8BEFA0

What the hell is that supposed to be? It's not like her. I mean, I think it's cool that she might be trying to impress me or something, but I can't make sense of that my precious. And she's not in to numbers I admit... She's in to butterflies and balloons, rainbows and sunshine... All the pretty stuff I adore. Leave the numbers to me, dear!

Something's going on in there. I think I may need to mobilize the troops and find out what's in there... the hard way.

Well, that's hex but it doesn't look like it'll translate straight to text. Cipher maybe?

hmmmm...... not to binary, unless there's another step after that.... I'm still learning ciphers. I got that it was hex, but past that, I can't find the next step.

EDIT: So, since I suck at the deciphering, I'll offer up what I can. The end of Gil/Gib's post said that he wanted to "mobilize the troops and find out what's in there... the hard way." What if I were able to make the hard way easier for him? I'm thinking of contacting Jill as Ilsa and recommending a bright young kid to deal with the problems with the firewalls.

The way it's separated, it kinda looks like color codes to me.
Going that route I get:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
8BE83C :: r139 - g232 - b60
8A0822 :: r138 - g8 - b34
FB883C :: r251 - g136 - b60
8A0820 :: r138 - g8 - b32
8BEFA0 :: r139 - g239 - b160


Whether that even means anything or not, I don't know.

I'm NOT good at these things, but is there some way that this translation of the code may be useful..? I there some way the numbers could be used as coordinates?

139.232.60
138.8.34
251.136.60
138.8.32
139.239.160

One triplet short of an IP address?

Lat-long?

No idea.
