[Trailhead?] EndlessInsanity
It seems like it started again.

After a few month of no activity,
things seem to be starting up again.

Who has absolutely no idea how they end up in his contact list.
New diary entries have been found,
And there seems like there's gonna be happening Alot soon.

I knew I lurked this forum for a reason. XD
Mmkay, so, a little more detail. A couple of days ago pretty much everyone who was involved in EI got an email from some guy named Nero.
"Hey!
So tonight we'r gnna meet up,right?
In case we forgot what our planning was (As in, not remembering where we'll meet up with the others),
Made us a map. (sorry for silly google maps,lol.)
We meet up at Castle Park. Chill out a bit with the others, and around 6PM,moving towards Harvey Nichols for dinner,reserved a table for us at 6:15pm.
Then, after our delicious nomz, We'll walk towards Odeon Cinema. not sure wich movie we'r gnna watch tho, we could go for Hunger Games?
Then,last but not least, We walk over to Vintry Street and catch the bus back home.

I hope to see you all there Smile

Nero."
It also included the attached image and, oddly, a diary entry from November 12th:

"12 November 2011

Its been some time since I had the time to sit down and propperly write down something like this. Things have been hectic. I am glad to be able to spend time with aunt and uncle..
I miss my friends,I miss home.. Ever since i moved to England,things have been feeling..diffrent. Like,like i forgot something really important.

Bristol.. Such a beautiful place.
Its..calm and quiet.
English people are really friendly.
Their tea is really tasty.

I will stop writing right now,
Cant get used to aunts fucking macbook.


Nero."

When we emailed asking him, he claimed that he doesn't know any of us, and that he had no idea how our emails got into his contacts or how the diary entry ended up mistakenly attached. We exchanged a few emails and started receiving some hidden text (see http://z13.invisionfree.com/EndlessInsanity/index.php?showtopic=147 for more details) that led us to his mediafire account, where we found three more diary entries:
http://z13.invisionfree.com/EndlessInsanity/index.php?showtopic=148

Incidentally, for anyone interested, he can be found at nerovarissianSPLAThotmail.com, though I rather doubt he'll be taking too kindly to strangers at the moment, after last night... :/

It sounds like this started a few months ago. How would someone new get involved and is there any important info we would need?

Gah, I have been lax, lax, LAX about updating this stuff. My sincere apologies. >.<
First of all, in late answer to Drake, yes, this has been going on for awhile. The best ways for someone new to get involved would be for them to stop by the shoutbox and to read the blog. I realize that the blog is a bit wall-of-text but you can get the general gist of the stuff that happened way back when, and we can fill in the gaps. The forums can be a little daunting, but the others in the chat, myself in particular, would be more than happy to help any new readers catch up. (just don't forget, it's all strictly IC!)
Anyways, the last week or so. Through email, we've gotten a couple of puzzles that I haven't posted on here (sorry, sorry, I will be better about that...) They led us to some diary entries of Nero's. A very sad story about himself and his friend Emily.

20th - http://www.mediafire.com/view/?z9q0s1qdpwbb1wt

And yesterday we got an email the was apparently meant for Mrs. Miller (Jeez, seems like email is messing up all over the place, huh? =P) It contained the attached image and file, and also some white text. "four digits yet one isallready inthe correc tspot. good luck." Looks like we've only got one shot at this...

I promise to be a little better about updating this stuff. But if you are interested in this, I would recommend shooting Nero an email and/or coming to see us in the shoutbox. It'll be a bit less complicated...

We failed... sent the wrong password in. =( Our guess was 0565 because of the white text... but I guess not. The reset password is being sent to Nero. I shudder to think what his reaction is going to be...

So I found this hanging on a wall.
Seems to be promotional material?
And what exactly is the little square in the corner?
(I took the poster home and scanned it)
