Huh! Donnie Darko was referenced throughout I'm Sorry (the faceless Watchers were generally represented by Frank); it also began to sum up the game as a whole. The characters as "real" people were also characters in the book that Bricker wrote, so the idea was that any of the actions by the "real" people were already predetermined by what Bricker had written years before, much in the same way that Donnie's fate was sealed when he has his first meeting with Frank.

Err, if that makes sense! I think that's what it eventually came down to, anyway. Maybe some of you other veterans can help me out here if I'm getting it wrong. Anyway, what I don't get now is why it's being brought up again in this game. My best guess is that Bricker's delibrately trying to get us to think of I'm Sorry again, for reasons I don't understand...

I've no idea if the Donnie Darko reference is to make us take I'm Sorry into account, or if there is a real clue in the movie/something with the movie itself. As for a clue from the movie, all I could find after a little quick research was the numbers "28:06:42:12" from the movie.

I wanted to throw a couple things out that might be food for thought.

First in his 1/17 blog post Craig talks about Elizabeth who he met in Spring of 1989. It is somewhat cliche to say that many use significant dates for passwords but I will be cliche. Could be this is BD or the date they met, anyone remember something like this? We know she died in 99 from the headstone page could be realted to this. Shanna I THINK was 15 so that puts her bd in 94.

They met whn she was looking a lecture on French involvement in the American Revolution. So we've got the whole French thing there again. He also mentions her wearing a Cure tshirt which could just a natrual description but still we are grasping here. I don't know much about them just that there are from Southern England.

He says he is dying looking at the painting which could be either of the Seurats. If he is actually looking at the potrait then he is in the Art Institute of Chicago, both are there. Unlikely since this is just 3 days afer Shanna's death. There is also a mural in the Mall of America of course he could just be "looking" at it in his mind. It could be the lat and long of those locations. It could also be the long and lat of the actaul Grande Jette.

Finally there have been a number of things in the source code that seem to lead no where yet. Tartkower, Prince Hal, The quote from Henry V and the long and lat of the Staybridge Suites although that is probably where they died. We have also had "assemble the pieces to save them all". And "the abode of the dead contains a large bowl" which may refer to the Grande Jette, Tartarus or Avernus. BUt also I found that Hades was also software and seems to relate although I really think in may be a coincidence but there are some similarities.

One thing to keep in mind, I think, is that the auth code should not logically be the place where Shanna died or anything related to recent events he said he didn't want to upset his plans and therefore the code would have had to have been in place before now.

Has anyone had any further contact with IRIs/Elizabeth? My recent emails sent approx. 1 week ago have gone unanswered. Are we too late to do whatever it was we were supposed to do?

Cheers

Seems we've met a dead end. And this early on, too.. I really don't know what the code could be.
