Ah, gotcha. That's one problem with trying to play catchup and having an IG forum to deal with as well.

Has there been any talk of symbols or meaning in the SemperF8 avatar image itself?

As a matter of fact there has. This is a few days old so I'm not spoiler-cutting it.

The avatar image is the Navajo code talkers insignia. Basically what happens is the file name for the image is a bunch of letters spelled out phonetically in Navajo. Translating them into English led to hoyardley.com, H.O. Yardley being a pretty famous cryptographer (I mean if you were another cryptographer...not so famous that I'd make fun of you if you didn't know who H.O. Yardley was).

 		Actually I've been recapping it on my own website:

http://angelnorelation.com/f8

(For some reason I feel weird plugging it now, although I didn't before. But it's already there so why not, I guess.) It should catch you up on all the facts up until today (I haven't added that stuff yet), although I'm glad you're looking through the IG forums anyway since I'm seeing a lot of ideas get tossed out there today that came up some time ago and were confirmed/rebuffed since.

 		There is an option to leave a voice message. Perhaps that is what we are supposed to do?

And why is this not being discussed here? Have discussions been migrated to IG site only?

 		Judy from Mentis Sanitarium has sent prolly her last email about deceased Heath to the arger (Shinyone) who proved kinship:

Judy wrote:
His last days were not out of the norm for him. He was suffering from cardiovascular disease, and hadn't been in the best of health for some time. We all miss him here. Thank you for providing me with your address. I will make sure to send his belongings to you. You should receive them in the next day or two.

 		Bigger Update:Yesterday this FB msg was posted by Serial Huntress and everyone began decoding again
Quote:
"Players of the Dexter ARG have done an incredible job of solving the Infinity Killer's riddles, but they need help with one puzzle surrounding the word 'dynamite' and the code 'KRJ HOJKMK NIP'. Do you have the key to something they've missed?"


While I was sleeping (as usuual) it was posted on the SH forum that a player's friend had solved it using "a beaufort with a key of dynamite" to lead to the next IG website The Fukuro Net. Yay and mystery code solved!
Coffee Then a discussion ensued that the Beaufort cipher keyword was incorrect and the result can only be achieved using the code word "dynmitedyamite" which rightly irked those who had tried a Beaufort cipher already.

Having also tried Beaufort early on at Cipher Clerk with "dynamite"and gotten gibberish have just tried it again with "dynmitedyamite" which does track correctly. Yikes! The End?

EDIT: Bored beyond tears now. This is my final requote: "dynamite is the actual code....The tool that was used was a free iphone app that someone over at unfiction developed." LINK to the iphone ARG Tools appy. (TY Toasty)

 		Arg Tools App
Which if either of these two apps was used on the Beaufort solve I can't verify. Am just OCD about not reposting hearsay. Laughing

First is Redict's amazing online tool (Yaha, do know that sounds porny):LINK HERE
And the one which Toasty and r_giskard (TY) lead me to earlier: LINKY

Awoke to Recap: blade121 & Cadwr noticed the one word difference in the Fukuro site lyrics to find http://drop.io/execute

The SH forum Vid4 thread is atm 11 pages. First, jabroni cleverly knew the Chapter title of the book in F8's vid (Kafka's The Trial...PROPS @sean.lear) to find http://twitter.com/Emptycourtroom where a QR code is just visible in the avatar area.
Coffee Then posts about going to a chat room, dling apps etc. so I've just attached the PNG I adjusted this a.m. at Snagit in one "Equalize" step. It decodes at Zxing to a site with a typo Smile. Corrected to the site http://www.wrongyourright.com
