you have to have AOL. It's a chat room. Town Square (public), then just enter the room name shrecknet. It's gone now. I suppose you could IM shrecknet too via AIM.

You have to have AOL? Confused I tried to log in to AOL as shrecknet but don't have the password. Maybe I can try to AIM him later on.

@yochanan -

I just saw your latest post on the blog - can you post how you solved it? Just use the spoiler html code for it:
without the asterisks:
[*spoiler]enter answer here[/spoiler*]

No, I meant the [-h.g|i.g|k.d|a.j|j.e|a.j|j.c|e.h|a.u|k.a|a.q|i.g|k.d|
j.a|j.e|a.j|j.0|i.g|a.j|j.c|j.a|a.n-] code.

The solution was
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Change the letters into numbers, concatenate them, convert them into letters based on the ascii values. The message is Warning: You are in danger. But apparently this came to late for Jon to be saved?

Petunia is, right?

So, any ideas what to do next? I wish there was another puzzle to mull over.

It seems that Jon is a generation 5 (or so) Ventrue. Does this note mean that Jon's captors are also Ventrue, sent by their prince, and that he is being held in the name-redacted LLC company? How can we find out the name of this company? And who, besides the Ventrue, would say "den of iniquity"?

Well, I would, for one. Twisted Evil

And yes, "the flower" would be me. Hee.

Blog update g:
Quote:
[-CAPTORS TRACKING DEVICE-]Telemetry: Captors travelled 96.59 miles SW.
Telemetry: Captors travelled 79.17 miles SSSE.

Suggestion: Determine cities captors visited to activate loyal cells in each area.


I'm guessing the starting point would be Jon's apartment in Chelsea, NY.

Yep - and I'm also guessing we need to use Google Earth or something to figure out exactly where they are now. At least, I can't figure it out using Google Maps. But speaking very roughly, it looks like they may have stopped somewhere around Philadephia, then gone on to somewhere near Dover, DE. I can't download Google Earth at work though. Confused

Does SSSW mean "south by south-by-southwest", i.e. 22.5 degrees west of south?

I haven't seen SSSW before, but it sounds reasonable... Dunno
