just got this file, edit: this is morse code isnt it ?
Indeed it is.
As per Twitter/YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJfaXTjuEec&feature=youtu.be ) they seem to be quite eager for us to solve the roman number riddle aswell. I am no wiz with code, but I can try to get it started.
Either the long lines are letter seperators, which I then kinda amounts to the following numbers:
Code:
vx||Xii|||xX|||xv xv||i
15 12 20 15 16
which with a simple letter replacement translates to
which anagrams into absolutely nothing.
(Behold my magnificent code cracker skills!)
Or the lines are not seperators at all. Seeing how there are sometimes two and sometimes three they might have a more semantic significance. Since the letters themselves come in upper and lower case, but are set on a background of upper case "i", perhaps the lines are supposed to be read as upper case i? If so, these are the numbers:
Code:
v xii xii iii xx iii xv xviii
5 12 12 3 20 3 15 18
which translates into
which again anagrams into absolutely nothing. I guess you can find a "come" in there if you want to, which leaves you with ctll. Great.
In her video post, Mara circled some of the long lines and not others. Dunno how to interpret that. If I exclude the lines she didn't circle (the middle iii/3), it translates to
which naturally anagrams into nothing.
I have not taken upper case or lower case into account at all, cause frankly I don't know what to make of that. Did I mention I'm no code cracker?
Remember, don't take any of this at face value. I'm sure I made dumb mistakes along the way. Please do pick it up from here.

help everyoneplease woman
with the confirmation that the mean us no harm im ruling out slendy and observer and or any other related slendy rip off ( for the time being ) and jumping back in
im gonna wav. edit the file with the morse code , and if someone could post a link with a pic of the email with the numerals then i can do some work with this also!
if this has achieved anything at least i got them to talk to me without using HEX. it was becoming tedious! lol

Does that mean 1 = L and 8 = O? Have any of the other text messages we've recieved had letters replaced with numbers?

thanks tal
so i had a look at the pics and the numerals contained in them
im just wondering and this is just a theory but i guess thats all we have at the moment
the numerals i picked from the email
V11 - - 7
Xii - - - 12
xX - - - 20
xv - - - 15
xv - - - 15
i (II) - - 1 (3)
im wondering if it reads as a date and a time
so for example
7/12/2015 at 15.13
just a theory? im going to google around a bit more (initial serched just showed OOG stuff)
i have sent another email to see what they want help with and or how i can be of specific help now that ive managed to get them to communicate in english ( i hope).. ...
will keep everyone posted

I'm thinking that that probably could link in to that message dei mos gave us, something about stopping the band from doing something.
