 		I think the words from the hangman game will be for some puzzle that we haven't seen yet. I'm not sure that there is anymore than meets the eye in this case. Maybe some additional background type info in the form of associated wikipedia articles and such.

Fiddled around with my speakers and managed to get those last files up. Your transcripts helped a ton, sublimetime. *cough* copy&paste *cough*

Still can't hear the quiet part with these crappy speakers. I think there's one broken wire inside the cable that has to be at just the right angle to fix the connection, so once I got it in the perfect spot I taped it down which seemed to fix it but then again sometimes the jack will spin and break the connection so maybe if I...

 		Missed something?
so I replied to Vidal's twitter feed in response to the "unusual audio files"

@VDesertch Several of us have recently obtained a series of audio files (apparently provided today), but they're still scrambled

he responded with

@i_lrkr referring to something diff from the audio puzzle pieces... It's an audio file we're unable to access but believe some of u can

any ideas??

I can't remember if someone's tracked this down already, but I just found this http://interdimensionalgames.com/radix_content/RADIX51_FAQ.txt

 		No clue what the audio file could be. i guess we're not "some of you".

As for Radix: I don't know exactly why it's on the server but I think that's just an old project the head of IDGI was apart of. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHMtUd6Ng7M looks like a crazier version of that old game Descent.

Just do what it is you people do - shoot something, yell at eachother maybe? Eventually someone will find you!

I mapped those coordinates into the middle of nowhere, Mexico. Wth?


I haven't seen any special audio files either.

 		Not even regular middle of nowhere...google earth has freaking NOTHING on the map there. No abandoned buildings, no odd geographic anomalies, NOTHING. It's just a field by a road.

Also no unusual audio files on my part.

Others have already destroyed themselves because of his influence. Soon we hope to show you proof of this.



so maybe they're going to keep accelerating these data drops we're getting?

also, as an aside, has anyone looked into trying to find a pattern inside the IP addresses we've been given?

 		Any chance you could upload a screenshot? That doesn't sound like anything I've seen before. Maybe you're one of the few who can download the audio file mentioned by vidal.

Did you beat the burning house hangman?? Does the word you got fit as the key word in this blue box?? 'cause yeah, as irkr said that sounds new to us!

 		I also just realized....do all of you have a desktop icon leading to hangman? Or have in the past? because I never have. The only way I had to access hangman was via a file in that folder on the desktop (4diamonds), and then running man if I failed.

Huh, wha? Smile

What file in the folder? (4diamonds?)

I don't have a desktop icon for hangman either. For a while there was the smiley face, but then that went away. And then once (once!) I've seen the running man, but then he went away too. Since then I haven't been able to access the hangman at all.

And I have never seen a blinking notepad icon.

 		I was able to go to hangman once through the running man icon. Out of curiosity, is your 4diamonds folder the folder with the audio files? Mine has a different name if so. (Are they supposed to be different per user?)

 		Sorry, just checked it--the file name is three diamonds followed by two underscores. That's how I got to hangman the first time, and every time since on other computers.

Also, now I'm consistently getting words in hangman that appear unique. (hubble and overseer are my latest two, I'm going to upload a complete list of what I've got on Thursday)

If you want to experiment, you can also go to

http://_______.interdimensionalgames.com and it seems to think you're a new visitor, where the blank is any word (or garbage characters) of your choice. At least, I can access hangman over and over that way, it may not actually think you're a new visitor.

Edit: The file that is downloaded when I click it (after having played hangman) is "reqlinquish.zip", it's inside the main folder on the desktop...which I can't actually read the name of---T?(Ewithtwodotsabove)(triangle?)

Sorry but I'm still not understanding what you are doing. Yes, when I click that (3 diamonds plus underscore) I get the Relinguish.zip file but what does that have to do with hangman?
