 		I emailed Hatshoe, asking why he thinks he might not be the only one playing this game.

Perhaps you will be the one who helps me escape.

But to find the source of it all is most important

I'm sure you can find him somehow.


So transcendentally speaking, who has whom and who is watching who(m)?
Another thing, I believe the main page source was rearranged. I have to say the way it is laid out it looks like a code, as in a code within a code. I know originally we were thinking the coords. Now I'm thinking cypher. I tried using the tool that links from the unfiction page but had no luck mostly because I had NO IDEA what I was doing.

 		Don't know if anyone saw this but it was in the 'Hatshoe' entry script:

Quote:
<We>
<In>


So do we have to wait til May for this? And the third of four what?

Neither page shows up anything with the brightness and contrast altered so nothing there either.

Recieved a messge back finally, it reads as follows:

Quote:
I think someone knows exactly what is going on.


Asked him who that might be. That was in reply to my asking him what solution we'd found. The waiting game is on once more!

Carl, let me put this bluntly. You now have two neighbours watching you. I don't know if his intentions are honest. I'll watch him too


i also wonder what "an utterly pleasing" way is to send a email

I agree utterly pleasing was an odd turn of a phrase and imho is out of character for the journal writer.

The other thing I have been kicking around, somewhat unrelated, is the fact that the journal seems to have been given to someone for their feedback hence the notes section and the stuff in red on xcom.

And btw there is a Sheorgorath on Twitter who is apparently a college student at Wesleyan or there abouts. I really don't think it's related since there are over 500 tweets however his tweets do fit strangely and I think coincidentally into this story. He mentions not being able to sleep, headaches and has some paranoia.

There is also a Hatshoe but I wasn't the first one to think of that. Smile

I totally agree with that. The sequence has been altered and "Castles.html" changed to "castles.html", which probably means nothing. Also, I think itīs remarkable, that the new top line is shifted two keys to the right ( the surprise-party-line ). So I tried to shift single lines from left to right according to the first coordinate given, i.e. if a set of coordinates starts with a "198" it lies 2 keys to the right of a line starting with "196"
The idea was to read something vertically, but so far I found nothing - still working.

Besides that I really appreciate the new tweets. I always liked movies like "Rear Window" or the not-so-bad remake "Disturbia".

Speaking of odd choices of words, "find the bright".

Absolutely agree Rear Window is one of my all time favorite movies. I passed on Disturbia but Body Double by Di Palma was a nice homage. The same but different.

 		According to the Twitter, Carl has some new shoes and they're nice. This means nothing to me. But maybe someone else will get a spark?

Considering the darkness comment, I think we should start by looking at Yaslana's ideas since the name is related to the Queen of Darkness/Black Jewel books. Any thoughts Yaslana?

 		He could simply be saying that one of us knows something and hasn't shared. I mean, it's easy to forget to mention something you don't think is important. But that's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

 		So was I not paying attention, or are we now suddenly able to click on links in the mainpage source that then take you to the source for everyother page?

 		If I understand you correctly, then I think Firefox has always done that. Maybe Chrome, too.

But that's a feature of the browser, not the site.

 		This sounds weird enough to be a movie reference. Anyone recognise it? He spelt Cobain wrong but I don't know who he's referring to, if anyone at all.

Oh, that could be entirely true and I simply never noticed it before.
