Is there more in Research than a_string.png? That is the only file I have in there. Guess some may have received more (or less?) than they were supposed to, given the 'glitch' post:

 		The chapter 2 on-screen decoding of Ben's letter had 13 two-digit numbers while this photo drops the last R ( 18 ). They did say the key was twelve digits but I took that as the D12 die.

Has this been tried yet?

 		So, Sanchez asked me to type "Activate -3542" into terminal, but it asked for a password. I asked about it and he said, after about a half hour, "Yeah there seems to be a password there, let's find it ASAP."
So, I'm still not sure what the password is.

 		Even though all of the dodas between chapter 2 and 3 on daybreak2012 are active now one is missing that was there before. There used to be eight doda links where now there are seven. Interesting.

The quote at the top is different now (discovered and spoiler-marked by blackfeathers previously).

activate -3542

Still looking for someone to post the files from the research folder since I can not see then without crashing. I have an iPhone so I can not get the files.

I do not think the glitch that they posted is what you think. Otherwise we would not have gotten the password.

Sanchez:
He was definitely on to something. That just download audio files to a Discovered Audio folder in your archive

Thomas:
Fellow Jack Boxers: I need you all to hear this important message:

Thomas:
The choice is yours. But if you choose to continue, know that we will do whatever is necessary

Lucy:
Jack Boxers, a mole is among us. I've isolated his phone, terminates access, and I'm building a script to hack his voice messages. Hopefully they will tell us who he is.
Hold tight - I'll let you know when I've got the script.

 		[edit - it's some sort of calculation under this spoiler tag. Please DESCRIBE what is under the tag if it's a PUZZLE SOLVE, so folks don't roll over it if they want to solve it themselves, otherwise, just post it. thanks - kona]
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

terminal
activate -euclidean
17=1*97-4*20

20-1*17=3 so 3=1*20-1*17=1*20-(1*97-4*20)=-1*97+5*20

17=5*3+2 so 2=17-5*3=(1*97-4*20)-5(-1*97+5*20)=6*97-29*20

1=3-2=(-1*97+5*20)-(6*97-29*20)=-7*97+34*20

bertrand, russell -
you can look him up. but in terms of the dodecahedron, he is mentioned in wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodecahedron
quote:
"In Bertrand Russell's 1954 short story "THE MATHEMATICIAN'S NIGHTMARE: The Vision of Professor Squarepunt," the number 5 said: "I am the number of fingers on a hand. I make pentagons and pentagrams. And but for me dodecahedra could not exist; and, as everyone knows, the universe is a dodecahedron. So, but for me, there could be no universe.""

Tried everything I could think of, can't figure it out. 1 hour after the above message, I got this message / clue:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Since this is the mole's phone we're dealing with, any text info would probably be translated into numbers on the keypad, right?
