Cool. Seeing "Odd Jobs" I'm thinking about new series by JJ Abrams "Odd Jobs" with Michael Emerson and Terry O'Quinn Smile

Anyway, I also tried to scan this code, but perhaps we need really better quality. At Amazon?

Btw, if you people are looking for QR scanner freeware, I use only http://www.bctester.de/en/index.htm

And I think, I'm in here Smile

well i replied the email i got from job test with the topic loki and i get another email.............(in case you didnt know)

Call me Loki.

I've jacked this account, and I monitor it for people that I think I can trust. More specifically, people I think have the skills to help me. I've removed you from the job placement algorithm. After analyzing your answers to the job personality test, I chose you.

Call me Loki.

Call me that because I have to, for the time being, remain anonymous. Through my work, I stumbled upon an archive and being curious, I opened it. And what I found inside filled me with grave concern. I have sent out packages to several media outlets in the hope that someone would release these files, find out WHAT they mean. Unfortunately, most of my packages ended up in the crank files of many a newsroom.

However...A few made it out.

I can't put the pieces of the puzzle together. I've tried, that's where YOU come in. I know I am asking a lot and by my contacting you, I may have already put you in danger. For that I am sorry, but SOMEONE has to do something, SOMEONE has to find the answers, to what is happening. With your help, I know we can stop what I fear is a disaster of unimaginable magnitude.

I have more files, and I will send them to you. Only I fear sending too many of them over email. Emails can be intercepted. Phone calls can be tapped, computers can be hacked. I can only hope we stay one step ahead of them.

Thank you for finding me. The game is afoot.



I think there is a code....oh and there's a picture with a dragon eating his tail(i hate myself)and at the bottom theres L O K I.i seriously need help

Hi lwllw,

We each have received the very same email. Thanks for getting involved!
[EDIT]

Speaking of emails, breaking news:

Quote:

From: Meg Sarah Street
Subject: Ace Hole Turn anagram?

A message to the faithful
The danger has not past
a call to all those able
Time is coming fast
Searching for the truth concealed
Beware, those who do not-bother
A piece of the puzzle will be revealed
Add the name of the all-father






[image of Ouroboros]L O K I




Spoiler (Rollover to View):
You;re on the right trail. Truth is in the eye of the beholder.


My added bits are in italics. Help me out: where have I heard the phrase "Ace Hole Turn" before? Its killing me!

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The Odin page has hidden text at the bottom, reading

It sates itself on the life-blood
of fated men,
paints red the powers' homes
with crimson gore.
Black become the sun's beams
in the summers that follow,
weathers all treacherous.
Do you still seek to know? And what?

This is part of a poem, the Ragnarok. Hrm. Also, Ion Node Eye; another anagram?

Edit: Check out Odin's eye.

Coffee This letter is hidden in Odin's source code ("new%20art/1.jpg"). Will gladly remove the attachment if it's a dupe one.

So, can we go any further than this trail or is this document the end? The Ragnarok stanza feels somewhat suspicious to me, but no obvious leads. I tried using the keywords in this trail, such as Odin and Ragnarok for the cipher, but no luck. I think if we're going to find keywords for the cipher, they're going to have a solid connection, i.e. be printed on the same stationary in some form.

Ion Node Eye = No Odin Eye?

The only one I could figure without the word "yo".

It's fitting.

Odin is always depicted with an eye missing.


When i read WTC i expected (thanks to the internet) it to be something like what the c...


Do you think the spelling mistake on the line "The danger has not past" was actually intentional? As in he's talking about the past. Also, the document in the source code is new, and it's dated 2014, it also contradicts the other document about Karl Justice.

Judging by the way the e-mail called this "a piece of the puzzle" i seriously don't think this is the end of the trail.

Probably "On Odin Eye", which is where to click to get the document.

Just realized I left an extra letter out of the anagram. Don't know if it's even significant, but the last "e" doesn't seem to fit anywhere.

I should have double-checked myself. Smile
