The new Fallout 3 trailer (caution: very NSFW) has a phone number and website in it. Get cracking, folks.

I've got a gut feeling that this is for something, but I've no idea what. So hopefully someone can help me out on this one, as I have no clue what to do with the information contained herein.

It was titled THE BRAIN AWAKES and is from frontal5lobeSPLATgmail.com

I got the same one at about the same time...doesn't seem like much to go on, but I did a search and found this:

http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?p=14733475

This post is dated for back in January, so it may be nothing....looks interesting though.

I just wish this email gave us more information to go on. I really have no clue where to go from here.

What I got so far....

From the first email:

"The speed of light": C
"Expected value ideal gas eccentricity" ???
"Boron": B
"exuded from the compacted test specimen when a 16.8 kN load (2.07 MPa)
is applied.": R http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(soils)
"The color blue": ???
"Ayumi Hamasaki's 19th single": M
"acceleration": A
"computer language developed in 1972": C
"wavelengths between 5 cm and 3.75 cm": H
"HO2CCH(NH2)CH(CH3)CH2CH3": I
"neutron": N
"Glutamic Acid": E

So the last word is MACHINE, but don't know the first yet....still working....

"The speed of light": C
"Expected value": E
"ideal gas": R (gas constant - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas )
"eccentricity": e
"Boron": B
"will be exuded from the compacted test specimen when a 16.8 kN load (2.07 MPa) is applied.": R http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(soils)
"The color blue": ???
"Ayumi Hamasaki's 19th single": M

blue? Could be O (no idea why) to make CEREBRO MACHINE (as in X-Men)

from second email, so far got:

"One hundred" = C
"methylenedioxymethamphetamine" = E
"NH2CH" = ?
"CH2CH2CH2NHCNHNH2" = H (Histidine)
"COOH" =

but if they're the same message, ["CH2CH2CH2NHCNHNH2" = H (Histidine)] would be wrong, it would have to be "E". COOH is Carboxylic acid, but that doesnt seem to have any further abbreviation, except that alkanoic acids are R-COOH, so i was leaning toward R.

[EDIT]

Here's how I lay out the second email:

"One hundred" = C
"methylenedioxymethamphetamine" = E
"NH2CH" = ?
"CH2CH2CH2NHCNHNH2" = H (Histidine)
"COOH" = ?
"There exists" = E
"magnetic field" =
"ohms" =
"found in RNA, it base pairs with MissingNo." =
"Ayumi Hamasaki's tenth single" = A
"is for cookie" = C
"Backspace" =
"is one solution of the quadratic equation x^2 + 1 = 0" = I
"to accelerate a body with a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per fourteen." =

haven't looked into the blank ones yet. gives me:

ce?h?e???ac?i?

the ac?i part lines up with machine, but then there is only one letter after, unless I misinterpret the last line (which is possible, because it only kind of makes sense).

"One hundred": C
"methylenedioxymethamphetamine": Ecstasy
"NH2CH-CH2CH2CH2NHCNHNH2-COOH": R Arginine?
"There exists": E
"magnetic field"": B?
"ohms": Resistance?
"found in RNA, it base pairs with": Adenine?
"MissingNo.": M
"Ayumi Hamasaki's tenth single": A
"is for cookie.": C
"Backspace is one": H
"solution of the quadratic equation x^2 + 1 = 0": I
"to accelerate a body with a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per": N
"fourteen": E (hex)

"cerebrA machine"?

yeah, that's probably more like it. I was reading the chemical as 3 seperate ones, not one long one. so. yeah.
good job! Very Happy

took the hint from the other forum which had the dashes. I started out separating them too. this fits better with the CE?EBR? idea...

So now what do we do with it?

http://www.cerebramachine.com
http://www.cerebromachine.com

don't exist. May be related to http://www.gleemax.com somehow (based on [URL=http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?p=14733475]this[/URL]). God help me if I know how.

Nope, I think it's CEREBRUMACHINE.....since the U is what makes RNA different from DNA....then google search reveals

http://cerebrumachine.com/

Yes, maybe?
