This new challenge has me puzzled. If you remove all of the names of the 12 Ancient Civilizations, you are left with:

PEXPECRXSISXLCO

As with the prior Roman Numerals, removing those: XCXCIXLC (381, if added up.)
leaves you with PEPERSSO

No combination of those seem to yield any results.


Looks like your missing a 'C' PEXPECRXSCISXLCO

 		Damn! I am stuck!

I know that word will be build from this letters: PEPERSSO and then some of these: XCXCIXLC
leftover will be converted to number. I guess my English is not good enough....

I'll give you what I think is a good hint, and then put the actual answer in spoiler text.

This is the correct path, but IL should actually be treated as letters, not roman numbers, giving you PEPERSSOIL and XCXCXC. Now the puzzle is to rearrange both of these and get:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
PERSEPOLIS and CCCXXX

or stl.la/persepolis330

Can you please add the url that the solution url redirects to the `solution spoiler` part, please? I guess that there is a regional problem about the url redirection, as me and some of my friends can not reach the solution address.

Yes, of course, and I'm sorry that you are still having problems. That would make it even more frustrating, because then you couldn't even know when you had the right answer.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
stl.la/persepolis330

Hi. Try using some proxy or VPN for connections. If you are using chrome or firefox as a browser I recommend plugin ZENMATE. It is free, and in click of a button you can walk around locale restrictions

The download link on the solution page was interesting. When I downloaded the file, I found some text.

Babe,
Some things I've been noticing lately but afraid to say out loud. Hopefully you see this.
More soon

If it is a phone number it is in BARSTOW, California
http://checkwhocalled.com/phone-number/1-760-678-0912

I will not call to the US now.

Edit: I am also quite sure. Directly after the number Stella says "Call me (crazy)...". Nice hint, I guess. Will someone give it a try?

Edit2: It is a number with a recording that leads to the misdirection keyword. We just skipped the phone clue. Here you can listen to the recording: http://endgame-arg.wikia.com/wiki/Magic_Show#Puzzle

 		So Far Behind
As an avid Ingress player, I'm excited about this book series and ARG. I'd also like to say hello to those that I've known on here for years TheBruce and Catherwood... Its great to be back on unFiction!

The book has been out for a week and I feel I'm so far behind!

 		SoCalSteve just be careful because Endgame has 2 ARGs running at the moment. The book one and the Ancient Societies one

Also here is the wiki page for the latest puzzle with hints and the solution
