I read 17 pages, and also 3 synopsis stating what has been covered. It wasn't mentioned in that.

How about you calm the fuck down.

Not really sure if this is helpful, but entering a URL that doest exist takes you to a 404 page with some image and mp3 that no one has yet posted or looked into it seems, unless i missed something.

Anyway here are the files pulled from this.

Page Title is LookingForSomethingThatNeverExisted

LostInTheMountains.mp3 is the music that plays

Georgia.png is the image. If you dont want to look it up its an image of just the date with the girl in the numbers.

text on page is "You're lost."

not sure if lostinthemountains.mp3 or Georgia.png gets us anywhere, but i just thought someone might be able to make something of this that I'm not.


EDIT: I left the page up for a while, and it seems that there is some message hidden at the end of the lostinthemountains.mp3. I cant really understand it but it sounds like more numbers code. Not sure if that adds anything but if anyone has made anything out of these codes anyway it could be helpful. MP3 Found here http://8-3-11.info/lostinthemountains.mp3

I couldn't get anything out of the PNGs (Belle_M and Alberta both contain identical image information, no differences whatsoever other than dimensions).


ETA:
Additionally, I checked the original swedish rhapsody MP3 and Knowledge.mp3 for any differences - the audio track is 100% identical. Except for a couple of informational changes in the ID3 tags, and that Knowledge.mp3 has the cover art image embedded (both of these variations I would presume add up to the ~30KB difference in size), there is no difference.

ETA2:
Added 404 page content, thanks radiovolta, as well as HTML ALT tag text where available
ETA3:
Added alternate 404 page content - it was updated since the first version... Shocked

I know its said a few other times in the forum, I'm just too lazy to find it.

Re: sloppy H

Could it be a typo? in the WINDshield?

as far as the "signature" of 68,000 maybe the "+" you put is the letter "H" in one diagram, they say that symbol might be a sloppy version of the "H" letter

I will ask again, does anyone know who made the translation on the first diagram??? did the image leaked with the translation??? can we really trust that information, and use it to try and decode the second diagram???


The sloppy "H" is in the "eliminated" third word at the top of the page not above the signature.

The first diagram was solved early on. There is a pdf someone made which copies any letter typed next to a glyph into the space next to all other identical glyphs. The version of the pdf which I have has some errors but it seems to provide an almost correct translation.

"PERHAPS A SIGN/PLAQUE?" and "BURIED TUBE WITH WIRES" seem to fit as descriptive phrases for items in the diagram.

Both "In the wind" and "In the wings" seem to indicate an upcoming event but is it "Far" in the future?




I'm asking this because of those things I pointed in the image, the "C" instead of "D" makes more sense since the original name of the file is "View6ProgressSTC.png" Making the title read "STONE THROW CONT." maybe short for contraption???

About the two different gliphs for "R" I have no idea

In short. Should I ignore this errors and take this as correct and proceed with the second diagram?

I'm sorry for beeing a slowpoke, with the solution of the first diagram

Also about the drawing itself , there seems to be two mobile poles in the center, and to me they look like they can be controlled by the rock things on the sides

Oreo - Oero i think is a clue to flipping letters or something somewhere. Note the photo also has a 'Oreo' logo on the awning.

So the alt text is 'oero' but the image name is 'oreo'. possibly there is an hidden image accessible by flipping the middle letters of the alt text... somewhere?

Of interest when you flip the middle letters around you are actually flipping the entire word so it reads 'oreo' backwards.

Notice also the G.png (alt 'H') and The Switch.PNG (alt '•') have the number altered to read 3•8•11

but anyway

Noting that one of the formspring questions is about the illuminati... 'there is no illuminati' (no mention of the nwo which is in the question...)

flip it and reverse it

illuminati -> itanimulli

[url]itanimulli.org[/url]

woo....

I can explain about the G and The switch pictures, "the switch" seems to be taken in Palermo Spain, whre the dates are usually DD/MM/YY, I do not know where G was taken, but the things around it are written in spanish, and most of the countries that speak spanish use DD/MM/YY as the format for their dates

(image of Belle)

I still have a feeling, the left and right parts of her face are from different pictures... Perhaps I'm wrong though...


I don't think the picture is made up of two parts, look at the eyes, they both have the same reflection, unless its photoshopped like that, and I think I read somewhere something about the picture being photoshopped.


(forgive me if the picture has been analyzed like this already - I could only be bothered to read a dozen pages into the thread)

It isn't definite proof, because this kind of thing can be fooled, but according to: http://errorlevelanalysis.com/permalink/9b5099b/ the artifacting between the left and right sides of the face seem to be fairly even, without any bright lines down the middle. Had the face really been made with two half faces and a blending effect down the middle, we should see that blend effect show up brighter, because it would be a younger element in the image, and the two halves would arguably show up different as well.

You could make a strong argument for the portrait in full having been cut out of its original background to be put on the white one, but that's about it, unless someone out there is more experienced in reading these than I am.

omg... this may mean absolutely nothing but here goes... when it says eliminate 3rd.. i took it as eliminate the third letter like this...

P_QDN_UOE_D_NAT = P_DNUO_DNA

now reverse it like the OREO OERO thing...

AND_OUND_P.... like maybe it could say and round up or something... idk it just looks neat and could be a hint....

8-3-11

I have been doing this since 6-23. i have looked at every clue, read every forum and tried to think outside the box,lol. I have come up with a couple of ideas that just ssem stuck in my head.
Belle is hitler's love child
Belle is just someone that the group loves and they wanted to immortalize her memory this way.
belle is onl a symbol of innocence that has turned wise with age and she just represents their cause
it is about atronomy and what is told in the stars and they intercepted something they were not supposed to and want to get the message out to the people of the world.

True it does look neat, and it certainly is more legible than the original combination of letters. Though, so far, we can't be certain that the two symbols after "eli_inate" say 3rd. And the spaces where you're inserting an R and a U couldn't be those letters because R and U are already known to represented by different symbols. Assuming everybody's right about the M in "eliminate," the letters remaining that could fit in those spots are V, J, K, X, Y, Z, or some other non-letter.

i agree with you but the thing is... if you are eliminating symbols to begin with... then they dont really represent a letter. but yes i agree that we dont know that it says the third however... if you "eliminate 3rd" and round up....8/3/11.....8/11= 9/12... i just wonder if they are doing this to prolong it even further..

Re: CONVERTABLE

boone wrote:
Does it bother anyone else that "convertable" isn't a word, or rather it is spelled wrong? This, I think means one of three things. One: the misspelling is a clue. Two: these folks were sloppy in their coding and misspelled the word accidentally. Or three: deriving "convertable" from that message is a coincidence. Honestly, I'm leaning towards the third possibility, because I don't see where the clue is leading us.
I'm also a little troubled by the fact that that second coded message didn't come from the 8-3-11.info site or the formspring site, but was only leaked on this forum. Do we have any solid evidence that the second coded message is legit at all?


"Covertable is misspelled!"

"Oops"

Sorry to bring this up all of a sudden.
Also, maybe I'm no the first one to say it...



I have read all pages of the forum...I read them all (and the formspring posts) back to back over a bunch of hours...and have probably forgotten a bunch of the middle...but, last night I spent some time playing around with photoshop (I know very little about Photoshop btw)...

but what I noticed, is that when you put the image through CS5's HDR filter, the section of this photo that is "rectangled" off, if you cut and paste it, is definitely different than the other 3/4.

I took it into CS5, went to HDR toning, chose "photographic high-contrast" then changed the exposure to -1.85

Then I just put in the black line to show you what I was talking about...



once again, this was uneducated late night (late late late) photoshopping

There have been a few formspring questions lately about a "Sam".
Any info about that? I can't find anything in previous answers, but then again I was skimming so I might've missed it.

Google translate that, i'm not the creator of that thread but it's really the only logical explanation behind this. Also i belive this people are pure geniuses fooling a couple million people with almost no budget, and a minimal team AWSOME.

The formspring aswer that's highlighted says more or less:

Why have you done this? (explaning that he and his friend were really into this)

Becuase sometimes people do things like that, and there are other people with nothing better to do that just point their curiosity to that irrelevant subject, meanwhile the perpetrators of this MASSIVE world wide prank are loling really hard while you and other like it are trying desesperatly to "figure things out".
