Update: The "existence.htm" page is diffenent now.

1) There is an intriguing message included with The Hanso certificate
2) It hyperlinks to a page (waste.htm) titled there's a light in the darkness
3) There are 5 hieroglyphs on it spelling "waste"
4) Four have Iliad passages. with red letters etc.
5) The middle symbol links back to The 8th Spoke

I'm leaving the "dotted" letters for a bit Coffee

yet the "red" letters are T T F N B H A S O O containing the word Hanso

In addition to the red letters and the ones with dots under them, there are lighter letters (hope I caught all of them in sleep-deprived state--please double check these):
mene from the emelus page
mhnau from the heavenwards page
uevineersgatn from the achilles page
eidmento from the agamemnon page

<---- aka lazy brown dog who should not spell check anyone yet sure they're absolutely correct. Laughing

Instincts saying that the "byblos" symbol linking back to The 8th Spoke isn't a reffy to the Phoenician city which exported papyrus. More likely it refers to the word biblios meaning "book" and Bible.

Maybe there's a correlation between the funky letters and the Spokers "Bi-Monthly Book Club" selections? *ITRW work calls*

EDIT: Unsure which letters were used yet they're further along with this connection on the WISH? blog comments.

The four book club books are referenced in the gray letters in the four pages of text linked from waste.htm.

New discovery on the blog: http://www.the8thspoke.co.cc/disintegrate.htm

The source code reveals that the image is called rouge (red) and it includes the phrase "something's missing".

Pretty sure what's missing is my advanced degree in algorithms and/or Sudoku puzzles. Laughing

)

RE email:aidoneus.unseen@gmail.com

The address with an author's typo was deciphered "by subtracting 13" from certain Roman Numerals. Know that ROT13 gives the same result. (yaha, I was toooooooo rottin' slow).

These two docs, one mentioning DJDan, should be read: Black Rock and Aletheia

It's a shame that so much is going on over there with only updates being posted here. I guess that comes with the territory (as the game is being orchestrated from a blog) but it seemed more fun in previous games because the 'community spirit' is naturally better on here.

Oh well, c'est la vie.
