well, this one got me interested Razz

just trying something, googling/yahooing for a phrase pulled up a couple of hits - [url=http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p="am%20I%20the%20only%20one%20who%20sees%20what%20I%20see?"&ei=UTF-8]here[/url]... not sure if it's any help


that is a most incredible finding... what are your thoughts? if i am to state the obvious, i think this is a solid discovery in finding out who OV is

http://www.mentalshavings.com/arc7_02_7_20.html
(this one, oddly, talks about artificial intelligence, nonetheless!)

http://www.redshift.com/~beyond/MUSINGS/mus20703.htm
(this is the one that is really similar to mr. ov)

 		I did the same thing thebruce did on google a while back and got nothing, but I didn't check other search engines. Those hits seem too coincidental... but its freaky how the one Untitled page seems so much like OV.

Browsing the site I found this: http://www.redshift.com/~beyond/wayne.htm

Doesn't sound like OV to me, although it does sound similar. What do you guys think?

i agree that it's freaky the coincidental nature of it all... like, how much 'wayne' sounds like ov

 		Exclamation Update Exclamation

Just got done talking to OV. He says that the site will probably be updated next Tuesday. He wasn't able to say anything more on the matter, so who knows if it'll go back to the way it was or if it'll be different.

 		Update.
Well, it's now updated with a poem thing and an overlay of dots and vertical lines. I just had this conversation with OhVerisimilitude, see if it helps.

(23:35:55) cpufreak04: What's the text on your new update of thematrixisreal.com? I can't find the text printed anywhere else.
(23:36:02) cpufreak04: Or can you not answer that? =\
(23:36:45) OhVerisimilitude: As of yet, I have not given help. It is new.
(23:37:13) cpufreak04: Ah, I see. Do the patterns overlaying the image have anything to do with clues to solving this new update?
(23:37:37) OhVerisimilitude: What do you think?
(23:37:49) OhVerisimilitude: And I am not saying that in a short sort of manner. Smile

 		More info on TheMatrixIsReal.com!
Well, I just had a really long chat with OhVerisimilitude. He gave me alot of hints. I have the whole chat posted here:

http://www.geocities.com/blobboid//MatrixChat.html

It's long and boring and full of uselessness, so I'm going to copy and paste what I found to be the most important parts.

(23:52:10) cpufreak04: Might the overlay be, perhaps, morse code? For it would then appear to translate into AGTRX, but that would seem to lead to a nonexistant page.
(23:52:33) OhVerisimilitude: Perhaps. Perhaps not. Smile
(23:52:42) cpufreak04: Hmmph. No fun once more.
(23:52:54) cpufreak04: Can you at least tell me if I'm getting warmer or colder?
(23:53:05) OhVerisimilitude: Yes. Both.

(I know for sure that the Morse does NOT translate into AGTRX now, so that means it is morse code)

(00:19:29) cpufreak04: OK. Assuming that you are confirming that this is morse code, and that it is based off of the source pictures you used for the morse code, then that means, depending on whether you translate the morse from bottom up, or from top down, it reads AGMRX or NWMRX.
(00:19:55) OhVerisimilitude: Alright.
(00:19:59) cpufreak04: However, you also have put specific emphasis on opposites in the main site by leaving them out of the overlay. Therefore, one must consider the opposite of those - changing .
(00:20:09) cpufreak04: *.'s to -'s and -'s to .'s
(00:20:45) cpufreak04: One then gets either ADIKP
(00:20:46) cpufreak04: Or...
(00:21:41) cpufreak04: NUIKP

00:22:19) cpufreak04: ...Neither of which turn up positive.
(00:22:39) OhVerisimilitude: If 'which' is what you limit yourself to.
(00:23:07) cpufreak04: ...
(00:24:02) cpufreak04: OK, ADIKPNUIKP and NUIKPADIKP don't exist either.
(00:24:17) OhVerisimilitude: Again, both warmer and colder at the same time.

And I'm not sure if this is a clue or not, but...
(00:32:37) OhVerisimilitude: My time is almost over. I must go for a few moments, then I will return, but I will be leaving within a half hour of returning.
(00:32:50) cpufreak04: I see. Thank you for the little you have given me.
(00:32:50) OhVerisimilitude <AUTO-REPLY> : Easy does not mean best.

**EDIT**
Well, you should probably read the whole log on that geocities page I gave you. Another quote I just got from him:

(00:43:33) OhVerisimilitude: While it is entirely up to you, I would caution you in that there are several clues that might take people quite some time to figure out embedded within this conversation.

 		More findings!
dizzorck pointed out to me that http://www.thematrixisreal.com/a/ brings up a password prompt.
Turns out every letter of the alphabet brings up a password prompt, but some are special. The only ones that are any different are:
http://thematrixisreal.com/h/
http://thematrixisreal.com/v/
http://thematrixisreal.com/w/
Each of which have a message on them.
Well, wtf?

At the bottom of the login is "Proverbs 2:12-15" according to biblegateway.com the KJV is:

12To deliver thee from the way of the evil man, from the man that speaketh froward things;
13Who leave the paths of uprightness, to walk in the ways of darkness;
14Who rejoice to do evil, and delight in the frowardness of the wicked;
15Whose ways are crooked, and they froward in their paths:
