 		#.Zip
Puzzle
http://onedotzip.leadhoster.com/

Started over at 4chan's /x/ board and was taken into IRC (Rizon Channel: #Solvermod) I figured that doing it all based on IRC was really messy and a lot of the people in there are /x/tards so things are getting done pretty slowly. I figure a forum is a better place for this kind of game and of course the more players the better. I'm only a player in this game and I guess I'm asking for help from this forum with this game as I'm actually pretty interested. The IRC channel is the best bet to get the most up to date news about whats going on and what needs solving, at least until a hand ful of people understand and start posting here. If it takes off on this forum

It doesn't contain much of a story, at least I'm not seeing it but still it's interesting. If the leadhoster site isn't up to date the latest news is that we obtained 6.zip but require a password which we are stuck on. Also the Puppetmaster/OP posted a new file over at sound cloud called "hahahahaha.wav" Some people saying that when messed with, you can hear something about a trade? emailing the OP gives a response that usually talks about sacrificing something .... something we can't figure out. We've gotten a couple of emails with "What is pain?" Which we assumed lead back to the "Pain is all humans have in common"

I'm calling it #.zip since it started out with receiving 1.zip and it seems the main puzzles of this is figuring out the passwords to the zips we receive. Give it a try.

 		I've been following this a bit and does seem interesting, but very hard to keep up with where the current discussion is at any given time. Hopefully having some discussion here helps.

You have? have you been apart of the IRC chat at any point? What name have you been posting under if you don't mind me asking? On the IRC I post as "MadZombie" with my backup name being Regicide.

When the IRC people who don't care as much and just want to hang out are left without anything to go on it's really hard to discuss anything. Only when something new comes up or one of the ops has something to say, then the Channel gets in gear and decides to take things seriously.

I just like the idea of this being done over a forum. Seems more appropriate.

At the moment we are wondering what the answer to the OP's question could be. Most of us are convinced it has to be in a "Pain is ____" format. I have a feeling that it's wrong but I really don't have any other clue.

Soem screenshots that might not be in the lead host site yet that could be very relevant.

People asking the OP their answers to the "What is pain" riddle

I'm not sure if the question about the pictures being related to the clues was asked BEFORE or AFTER we got 6.zip as I didn't take the screen shot so I'm not sure if the question was asked with finding out a clue to the password for 6.zip in mind.

In the leadhost site it talks about the 11 jpg's (all named as Import 002/003/004/etc). If you open 6zip to few the files in it you can see that it contain IMPORT 001 but it requires a password to unzip and view the image (it's a jpg. created on 8/18/10 if it's some sort of clue)

The most sound clue analysis I've heard so far is that "Pain is ..." is related to souls as all humans have them in common. Even though it doesn't exactly make sense someone suggested that "Pain is blues" since Blues (the music genre) is related to 'pain' since blues is usually about topics about being down and stuff. Also because their was a clue that points towards Van gogh's ear being cut off... In history after he cut off his own ear he went through a "blue" period so that something to support the whole blues idea. Also in the Whosaid.zip containing the jpgs/IMPORT ### images you can see in the blurry pictures a guy wearing blue clothing.

Edit: The password to 6.zip is EVERYTHING
Which I imagine the answer was "Pain is EVERYTHING"

Well now we have IMPORT 001

 		Looks rather interesting, hopefully there's additional content. I'd be interested to look at it. Has definite ARG aspects to it.
