Another strange issue within these cached(!) xml files:

in index-file (ForumData_0.xml) some sort of reverence (Postid) to diary files. In most of these diary files you will find this same postid.
April, June and October differs. All three show postid="fh83fs0fhsbf0shf"

The privacy policy which seems to be greek etc is written in the font Symbol, it spells out;

Butterfly clause
Butterflies are souls of the dead waiting to pass through Purgatory.

This has actually been found in a few places, at least one of which is in this post (the search button comes in so handy at times).

But still, welcome to the game. Make sure you browse through the rest of the threads here and at the wiki, and check out the posting guidelines to ensure that your posts get the attention they deserve.

I thought the link to the film quiz with the alphabet made up of letters from film titles could be relevant, especially considering the number of film references in the cache; I counted 12 altogether. Maybe this has something to do with how jon has coded a password?....

I don't think so.
I've been looking into that avenue of attack all day and nada Sad
Still, it keeps the brain occupied.

Anyone know what the bad star wars joke is? it's been driving me cracked!

Always,

FYI: where the xml file shows the date for the
'not real' entry as 152/06/04, 152 days from the start of June is 30th October, dunno if its relevant, just letting you know

The bad star wars joke is saying 'May the fourth be with you' on the 4th May, hence the entry on the 5th.

No, I'm still wondering about Yokel's comment

Three of the entries show postid="fh83fs0fhsbf0shf"

the rest have a postid that matches the filename

April, June, and Oct are the ones w/ this matching id #.....


By the way, searching for bad star wars jokes can be detrimental to the brain cells....

Noted in the WIKI Atilla, I caught that too, but as with all the rest of it, can't make sense out of it.

A very well known Star Wars joke:

The phrase "I have a bad feeling about this" is used six different times by five different characters.

First off, if you ever have any general sort of questions about the forums or ARGs in general, you can always use the General forum or the General Meta forum (I know they are a bit hard to see when you first log in, but they are there hiding at the bottom).

That being said, the tags refer to how many posts you have made. If you're really prolific, you can get to be a veteran after only a day or so - not that you should. We reward quality over quantity here. But you can use the number of posts as a rough guide as to how experienced a certain poster may be. But keep in a mind that some relative newbies can have a bunch of posts, while some longtime members may only have a handful.

The Hiding Room is going extremely well. I just hope that I have it
ready by the time I need to use it. It was certainly throw S&S off
guard - If they ever find it.

Does this mean the hiding room is basically a worthless red herring?

As people have pointed out from the source of the flash, there is nothing behind the mezzanine door. Methinks that Jon is trying to lead S&S off track.
