Yep, it shows as a cue point around the 'password' when you look at the file in an audio editor like Adobe Audition.

 		Uh, I've got 7-2 unlocked now.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Tried FREEFALL first, After that, I tried ZEALOT and again got the falling down sequence, but this time I get an ending credits thing and 7-2 unlocks.

Check again Joey. Do you have the final achievements (safe and sound & emergency broadcast)? I think there is a bug that allows you to enter the password for 7-1 and the 'wrong' password for 7-2 into either answer box. I got that same ending credits page when I entered the wrong answer to 7-2 the first time. If you look at finale.wav you will see bits from the other puzzles in there as well as the obvious password being spoken. We were looking at which puzzles were actually in there when I had to leave the IRC.

 		can anyone tell without much changing of the sound file, what order the pieces from other tracks are in? I don't think it is the same as we played the games in, just wondering because after Hello player, I think it is game 3-2.

2  decade (5-1)

2.5 guru (6-4)

4.5 joystick (6-5)

5  noknees (4-2)

 		7-2 CORRECT Password Solved
It turns out there are at least 16 of the clue pieces from the other sound files buried in the finale.wav file. I'll break it into hints for those playing along or just jump to the bottom.

Here's a hint -
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
If you take the answers and sort them alphabetically it will help you find the clues. They are placed in the finale.wav timeline based on the answer.


And another -
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
If you analyze all the clues you will find that some are missing. In my case there were 10 missing but in theory there will only be 6 missing.


And here's the password -
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The first letters of those 6 are an anagram of the word FUTILE. I only needed 16 clues to get about 400 choices of passwords. I got lucky on guess 45.


There are now more achievements that show up so I'm not sure we're done yet.

Again, nice work! As for more, not completely sure where to start. The 'Safe and Sound' achievement does have some extraneous clicks in the audio after she speaks, and earlier I noticed that the sound playing in the password box for the finale has some clicking going on, but we don't exactly have access to those files.

 		Nice job guys, I got a ton of passwords like you did and came to post that and you guys were done!

I agree that we are not done, we still need the doorman's final hint, Phonopath's name and the other achievements now. Where do we go from here? As for the suggestion of the sound files we don't have access to, we can record them with programs - and maybe there is a way to get them off the site itself.

Edit:

Weird thing happened, I put in the final code again and the achievement voice came on and said corrrrrr error like it did the first time, then there is a humming while the wave motion is on the screen and it stays there, not going to the rest of the file, maybe just my flash though....


Also the wave screen is still up, just kind of stuck there...

Edit2: I refreshed the page, all the files are still there when I log back in, all the achievements are now blanked out again...

 		finale.wav has been updated. An old version was hanging around somehow.

The Doorman's hint should be far easier to locate now.

Did you actually record that from the computer or do you have the file?
