 		Sorry, was away for a week. I contacted Five and I got this reply on 15th December:

Quote:

The hostage is no longer of concern, as we have obtained the object that we required.

The package will be sent to our buyer as soon as payment has been obtained; until then it is being kept safe here.

Five,

could you give me a brief update. What happened with the hostage?
Is the Lapis Tempestas is our possesion?
Where is it and what will happen?

I will now send a message to him that I have another potential buyer that will pay much more than the original one.

 		IT IS BACK!!!
Seems like this game is soon up again.

I received this email as an anser to my mail in december:
Quote:

Apologies for the very long delay. It appears that there have been some leaks within the organisation. Attempts to plug them so far have been with varying success.

The merchandise has been transferred to the client, however, as you know, that is not necessarily the end of our association with it. If there is someone out there willing to pay more, we can always... reacquire it.

However, as to the security issues within the organisation... Every agent is to recieve a test of new design very soon. As a past node of mine, I expect that yours will come through me. Keep an eye on your inbox.

Five

What should we do?

Since I really liked this game I hope a lot of the former players will rejoin here. Of course new players are welcomed. More infos on what has happened could be found in the wiki (link in signature).

 		Test - AUZ
Received my test. Just the images below were attached. I post them so everyone can work on this puzzle (please spoiler solution if you find it before I do).

Anyone else received a test? The same one or another?

SOLVED:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The signs are just numbers.
Unity = 1
First Prime = 2
Gamma = 3
...

Would have been more difficult if the numbers would have been out of order. So it was quite simple.

The first Grid then translates to:
14 21 13 5 18 15 12 15 7 9 3 1 3 15 18 16 16 18 15 2 15 1 18 4 19

Using simple substitution (A=1, B=2,...) reveals:
NUMEROLOGICACORPPROBOARDS

 		Hm... seems like I am the only one still interested in this game Sad

Nevertheless, I have email contact with Darcy again. She just told me that she updated her blog (http://forreferenceonly.blogspot.com/). I will write her now about the latest Numerologica activities.

I have not found the password to the protected forum, yet.
Anyone an idea what "10 10 100" could mean?

Got it!
Password for the protected forum thread on proboards (see link in spoilered part in the message above)
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

googleplex
= 10^10^100


Numerologica is searching national nodes in
USA
France
Germany
Holland
Australia
New Zealand

I will apply for the German one.

 		Hmm, I'm still interested, but I'm afraid I did not receive my test from Numerologica. Well, I'll keep following along from the sidelines nonetheless.

Also, minor correction to the password:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
googolplex -- spelling matters Smile

 		Emails
I got some emails:

From Darcy after telling her about the latest Numerologica activities:
Darcy wrote:

Wow! Sounds like things are all go your end. I can't wait to get back
to England. Unfortunately, plane tickets just aren't as cheap as you
might think!

Still, I'm trying to do some more research on the lapis tempestas
whilst I'm stuck here. Maybe I'll find something (or someone!) who can
help me when I get over there. Perhaps you and your friends could have
a look too? Many heads are better than one!

Speaking of your friends, are any of them going to try and become
numerologica nodes too? It would be great to know that there are lots
of you "on the inside" as it were.

Best,
Darcy


and from Five after asking how to apply and if it is ok to post on the forum:
Five wrote:

My thanks.

Yes, you are free to post on the forum if you have passed the test. Please submit your candidacy to Three on the forum. I will vouch for you.

Also, if you know of other agents you think might be worthy, you may pass the test on to them too.

Five


The PM is crying for more participants.

So anybody who wants to join this adventure can simply go to the password protocted forum (see above posts for link and pw) and apply for one of the nodes.

You've probably worked this out already, but those are all
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
portions of sports company logos. I *think* the second one is Reebok, the third is Adidas , and the fourth is Nike -- I'm guessing it's a first-letter kind of thing? So _RAN_?

Edit: Not sure what that third one is anymore... Confused

That third one came to me as soon as I went to bed for the night last night Smile I'm certain I've seen the other two before, also...

I went ahead and applied - as long as I'm working on the puzzles anyway... Smile

Speaking of, I'm attaching the puzzle in case any lurkers are inspired:
