And in Braille?

Braille characters use a 2x3 matrix of dots and spaces, i.e.

XX
XX
XX

So if this is a braille character it's lying on it's side. Could be the letter V if it's just rotated but if it's reflected it could be a P or the symbol for a number. See http://sanchez.e-poets.net/pdf/braillecard.pdf for more information.

<SPEC>Could the V be the Roman numeral 5? Probably just a long-shot and it doesn't make things any clearer for me.

The codes aren't folders, .html files, or special inputs on the email box. Smile

I'd like to note that before project syzygy was completed it was . : : : which throws off the above spec (It would have been . ; if it was).

It probably leads no-where, but if you rotate the ..: then it forms a V in braille, but as Kev said, the previous title makes it slitely redundant

Phases compleated? Since there was .::: before, and ..: now... Maybe they took out part of it? Or perhaps it's some other type of counter.

Picking up a trick from the postcard thread. '..:' and '.:::' could be Morse Code.
Letting : be dash, we have:

'..:' can be U, IT, EA or EET
'.:::' can be J, WT, AM, ATT, ED, EMT, ETTT

or, letting : be dot, we have:

'..:' can be G, ME, TTE, TN
'.:::' can be B, DE, NI, NEE, TS, TIE, TEEE

Aside from "me", I don't really see anything here. Confused
