 		[PUZZLE] Glyphs
OK, bernie apparently had some luck with the glyphs, so I thought they would be worth looking at again.

I still don't have any progress, but I assigned each code a letter to make it a little easier to look at; maybe someone else will see a pattern. Let me know if I messed up somewhere.

Glyph sequence #0

Dq805 A
Ta285 B
Dq805 A
Ta427 C
Dq805 A

Dq805 A
Ta285 B
Dq195 D
Ta427 C
Dq195 D

Dq805 A
Ta997 F
Dq195 D
Ta427 C
Dq805 A

Dq195 D
Ta997 F
Dq195 D
Ta427 C
Dq195 D

ABACA
ABDCD
AFDCA
DFDCD

Glyph sequence #1

Dq195 D
Ta285 B
Dq195 D
Ta427 C
Dq380 G

Dq805 A
Ta997 F
Dq380 G
Ta427 C
Dq805 A

Dq195 D
Ta997 F
Dq380 G
Ta427 C

 		This just in from #uf and Starrynight

We were going about this slightly the wrong way. It is a translation, but not one we're used to.

Hint:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ta427 is a very popular symbol.


Hint 2:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
you can find it at the top of your keyboard


Solve:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
ta427 is the = symbol. the Ta parts are mathematical symbols, the Dqs are numbers.

So the solution is:

0 + 0 = 0
0 + 1 = 1
0 * 0 = 0
1 * 1 = 1

1 + 1 = 2
0 * 2 = 0
1 * 2 = 2


So now what do we do with this?

 		Hmm, an equals sign might work, but a Ta427 as a decimal point makes sense too.

I have some numbers that work in equations though:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Dq805 = 0
Dq195 = 1
Dq380 = 2
Ta285 = +
Ta997 = *

So we have:
0+0=0
0+1=1
0*1=0
1*1=1

1+1=2
0*2=0
1*2=2


What do we do with a bunch of equations though?

 		New door_to passphrase...well, there *WAS*:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"two plus two is four" made an alternate door_to page appear...for all of one second. It disappeared before I had the sense to copy the rotated text that appeared....

Scratch above - it appeared again, and it's just soved by ROT-22 (number would be 4). It said: simonsays...tryagain - making it a randomly appearing alternative to the wrong way page.

Actually....
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
There's new text that just appeared on the air page:

gk8wwumrrp1z41c20ujqb23wsrsnr7ywylhfacokbhppwizqn7n2zaxne is reminded of the incidents at Waco, Texas; was there any way to stop this tragedy, or was an innocent girl inevitably a sacrifice to ignorance? The entire Camp Hill area mourcizh22hachafg8o6tb2th8cpqemic

Fire has new text too:

NEWS FLASH! NEWS FLASH! FLASH! FLASH ASH A 44lvqfi3ladzss9q37cxof0wisimonsays...PANIC!gevriiz0m3eyik7

...for that matter, look at the ol' water page:

has spent some time in correctional institutions, where he picked up some tattoos and an unfortunate nickname. Fortunately, through the miracle of Idunn's grace and Master Bao's guidance, Michael has risen above his Undertakeresque appearance to become not only a cher

Now you know enough to understand the implications of the ceremony the Idunnians are talking about...and you've surely seen from our logs that Jill doesn't deserve her fate. If you truly do understand, let us know and we shall find a way for you to help. Already a madness is beginning to afflict the Camp Hill area...
It is finally time to act. Consult the elements.
You've passed through the water phase, now move on.
