 		Oh, not again 10 new sites after I was away Smile

I'd just say, I have not really much time right now, but I'll also come to that Russian board, I hope, today.

Anyway, I've to read all the thread again, but now I'm in my office, and my boss is lurking everywhere.

Hey nomad I was trying to post this on your thread:

okay i would like to join the discusson here but i can't understand fucking anything.
I think its easier if i post new updates on the uF thread http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=28153&start=975 and you post important ones there too?

Sorry, but I'm too stupid to post there (I can't read the validation thingy).

Yeah mate, i've seen your post. I will repost if we'll dig out some more stuff, or if others will ask me. There's some guy talking wired stuff about "transformation". Check out the fake google again, what's happenin' there?


OH WOWWWWWWWWWWWW
interesting fake google result!

big high-five to the one that figured that out!
looks like Aharonov–Bohm effect is definitely related to that

nice! Very Happy


What exactly did you see?

You've seen the translation after putting "alfas-tsentr" keyword, right?

 		By the way, we have tried to use "forgot password?" option with Junko's email on mail.ru (this is the most popular mail hosting in Russia) and it results in strange question, which I'm almost sure is part of the game.

Here:

Шаг 1. Ответьте на секретный вопрос: (Step 1: Answer the secret question)
What was Rhea's birth name?


That is totally strange, because the question is in English. So, I guess you are supposed to use it, keeping in mind that you don't now Russian.

Got any clues on that Rhea's birthname? The problem is that there are limited number of tries.

just my observations about the symbols and their associations to characters/gods/goddesses

JJ's birthday is supposedly on the solstice (the same day Gwaschemasch'e performed her fertility ritual in Malta). The solstice is the longest day and shortest night.

The symbols on Gwaschemasch'e's hand on The Junko's facebook group look a lot like certain pagan goddess images. This one is of a pregnant goddess: http://witchcraft-supplies.com/3Prod/goddess.abundance.jpg I know it's a pendant on a commercial jewelry site, but the resemblance is still there. This symbol also is reminiscent of the ones on Gwaschemasch'e's hand: http://cn1.kaboodle.com/hi/img/2/0/0/bf/1/AAAAAi0TNbIAAAAAAL8eIQ.jpg


Malta is also where a lot of those typical pregnant-goddess statues were dug up, so it's totally reasonable for that to be that style of mother-goddess representation. I think we might need to explore the mystical side of things more, but I feel Egyptian is probably way off-base, since we've got the Malta connections, and the Gwaschemasch'e/Circassian/neopaganisim stuff to work with. Also the Junko Junsui posts ending with "blessed be" which is very very modern neopaganisim. Hopefully miss genetic perfection doesn't wear cheap quartz jewelry and wolf shirts, though. Laughing

Also, has there been poking at these "Khozains" that I missed? I think we need to figure out who they are.

 		Rhea Silvia is best known for being the mother of Romulus and Remus. Also known as Ilia, she was a priestess in Alba Longa, pre-Roman Italy. She was fathered by Numitor, king of Alba Longa, and an undocumented mother. Numitor's brother, Amulius, stole the throne from Numitor and killed Rhea Silvia's brother.

So... maybe "Silvia", "Rhea Silvia" or "Ilia"

edit:

Could even be "Rea Silva" or some other combination...

 		Again with the mythica tack: I'd like to point out that it's extremely common in creation myths for the people to come from a cave/from the earth, and then walk in the light. Liiike, oh, say, rescuing a comrade from a government nuke-research site to "walk in the light," a la one of the twitter updates? I really really think we should take a closer look at the mystical side of things. A lot of the symbolism is pretty obvious, like the mother-goddess figure, but...

Well, Rhea Sylvia was also known as Ilia, maybe try that?

No, Ilia doesn't fit, and Gwaschemasch'e doesn't as well.

Kybele was the Anatolian equivalent to Rhea
