If no one else gets the chance, I'll take a look at it tomorrow.

ETA: so, I lied an I'm doing it now. Got this in my email:

http://view.engage.xbox.com/?j=fea416717666077d75&m=feca167070610c7c&ls=fe4c12707d6c02757d13&l=feb81c7877610d7a&s=fe2d177472640079741d72&jb=ff911377&ju=fe6910707164067b7512&uid=94637917&tid=&r=0

I broke the image down in photoshop but didn't get much that made sense to me. The text behind/around "#evilawakens" is too garbled.

However, if you click the blue hexagon in the lower right corner of the email, you DO get something VERY interesting.

So, pulled out the WAV file, sounded like there would be something in the spectrogram and sure enough, check out the attachments.

*sigh* I solved it too, but only after just now seeing a comment at HBO with a link to the proper web version of the email that actually links to the JPG. Confused
Now that I'm checking back after work, of course it's already solved Razz d'oh. (my email didn't have a clickable icon, nor did the linked web version)

Anyhow, here are connecting pieces so far:
