oh hey maya (it was maya was it?)

Glad they're answering questions again. makes things a whole lot easier.

Anyway the theory that was going on was that arabelle was the woman we were looking for right? She is long dead by now and in her childhood there weren't really camera's yet. So we can't have a picture of her as a kid.

when asked what the name of the girl in the picture was, the answer was Belle.

This makes me wonder if we should be looking for another Belle.


No, Maya was another person on /x/ I went by, not surprisingly Zella, but I apparently offended by posting pictures with my posts -shrugs- some people raged and so to not add to the conflict i decided to stay off /x/ and hang out here, I dont like the way /x/ is handling this anyway.
I did chat with Maya though, she seemed legit into the ARG

they mailed this code today. I think its how to decode their messages but they aren't telling us anything, or at least not me.
i'll probably get blacklisted for this.

Fun with colors and their designators

Disregard what follows this. Upon following up I found it to be a deadend. Take a look if you like, play with the idea if you must, but I'm pretty sure it ain't no thang.




Noodling through the source code of the different 8-3-11 pages, I noticed they specify color codes that aren't visible on the site. For example, all the mp3s are designated a #ff9900 background color, and on the index page rgb (102, 102, 102) is specified for certain text sections. These colors are red-orange and red respectively.

http://palettebuilder.com/rgb/102/102/102/default.aspx

http://palettebuilder.com/hexadecimal/ff9900/default.aspx

I'll be looking for some more colors. It seems odd that they would specify colors that are not visibly active in the website. Given their penchant for numbers, I'm thinking there might be something here. Also, perhaps we ought to examine what the colors themselves could stand for? Flags come to mind, but that might be a little too obvious.

I've been lurking here since the thread was started and not so long ago i decided that the least i can do is go through all the formspring replies, and i found one that interests me. (i'm pretty sure someone already noticed it) but

http://www.formspring.me/8X3X11/q/208779053728039768 this is the one im talking about

☂?




So i gather they asked about the umbrella but what bothers me is the answer, Clouds - going down.


What comes down from clouds? Rain. I'm thinking that's what they're saying.

(Apologies on the double post)

I'm pretty sure 175,000 was simply being a smartass.

in the leaked image we took acronyms of the remaining letters and one of ones we got was verizon (VZ)
at the time it seemed like a long shot because it would read eliminate verizon
but we just found : http://www.linkedin.com/pub/sam-proffitt/5/113/917
which is the supposed name of the person behind this and they work at verizon
do you guys think its a clue or just a coincidence?

New formspring answers.

68,000, the guy who wrote the 2nd leaked image, is also the guy in charge of encoding messages.

Belle is not directly involved in their cause (although remember from a previous answer she is related to them, the associates themselves, in some way) and is more of a symbol. This doesn't mean she's not a person (fictional or otherwise), just that if she is a person then that person is not actively involved in 8.3.11

Well if he is related, he works with structured cabling at verizon. the view6processSTC image appears to have cables so that would relate. I think its more coincidence though, but thats personal opinion

If we're to believe the formspring, no illegal or harmful acts will occur from whatever this is. If that's the case, I think we can rule out tampering with Verizon systems, services, or products. What else can VZ stand for? To google!

I don't think it's VZ. They could also be numbers, or a substitute for other letters. There are now 29 characters. So I'm having a little trouble cracking it.

Think it has something to do with html5 reaching last call status. Submit feedback until August 3, 2011. Would coincide with the traces that people found with connections to w3c standards.

John 8:3-11
<<John>>
3 The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst 4 they said to him, "Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. 5 Now in the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?" 6 This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. 7 And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, "Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her." 8 And once more he bent down and wrote on the ground. 9 But when they heard it, they went away one by one, beginning with the older ones, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. 10 Jesus stood up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?" 11 She said, "No one, Lord." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more."

to the right it's a pile of stones, jesus in the center, woman on her knees.

Belle M. is simply the anagram for Ma Bell

The colloquial term Ma Bell (as in "Mother Bell") was often used by the general public in the United States to refer to any aspect of this conglomerate, as it held a near complete monopoly over all telephone service in most areas of the country, and is still used by many to refer to any telephone company. Ma Bell is also used to refer to the various female voices behind recordings for the Bell System: Mary Moore, Jane Barbe, and Pat Fleet (the current voice of AT&T).

Started following this recently. Got a ? answered that 36,000 is a Tier 2, dropping yet another numbered leader into the mix.

We now know of 18,000; 21,000; 36,000; 68,000; and 175;000. Where the significance is I have no idea.

I did translate this for us though. http://www.formspring.me/8X3X11/q/209762728041026610

To those of you unfamiliar... this was CLEARLY Morse Code.

The question is simply YHF, I assume as a reference back to Yankee, Hotel, Foxtrot.

The response? A bit sardonic from 175,000. .-- .... .- - / .- -... --- ..- - / .. - ..--.. Translates to "What About It?"

Not Crucial to anything we know... and I also asked about Belle Mansfield. No answer yet, which I was not surprised at.

In the grounds of Internet conspiracies leading nowhere... this is about the next best one I've seen since "What's in the Box?" whatsinthebox.nl If you find yourself interested.

I'll be in to see what you guys keep finding. And I'll be doing my best to dig up all I can.

Change your passwords if you get deep in friends. You never know who's capable of what on the other side.

Cheers.
