a few things i reached and a few i haven't Smile
1. the recording says "I hate the process to it's logical conclusion"
2. i ran the video through quite a few filters, but it's still pretty crappy. from what i've seen, i couldn't even tell if it's one video or a few clipped together (which is also an option as we know the video might be edited because of the reveresed sound). by the way, maybe the sound has been clipped from a few parts as well.

I think we need to focus on the sentence brigid is saying, it's the only definite thing i can see.
maybe it's a quote? or a riddle? we need to remember that jon sent it to us for a reason.
I'll think about it today...

IMBOLC 1st february BRIGID

In relation to this - as we haven't heard anything from jon yet maybe we will hear from him on the next major festival as we did on the solstice previously. The next one is IMBOLC at the beginning of February or alternatively known as the feast of Brigid!!

http://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/paganism/festivals/imbolc.shtml


"On her festival day, February 1st (Imbolc), Brigid gives us the promise of spring, and of new life returning to the Earth. Because of this, she is also referred to as 'Brighid of the Green Mantle'. Brigid, goddess of hearth and flame, was known by many different names."

Perhaps something will happen tomorrow?

Ok, guys, its definitely "I take the process to its logical conclusion".

I loaded up the audio file, located the start of a word, and kept clicking at that point repeatedly until i was sure of the syllables being formed. Any doubt is due to the accent. Eventually i could tell without a doubt that she said take. I oculd hear the "T" syllable being formed. The same goes for the rest-i spent 2 and a half hours just listening repeatedly to each syllable, writing them down once i was sure. And so "I take the process to its logical conclusion" was in fact the logical conclusion i reached!

cut on hand

I have'nt seen this mentioned yet...
I don't think Jon is showing his hand, it belongs to someone else. You see Jons smiling face, seems like he may be holding the camera, then he starts walking, hooves are shown, and then he shows you the cut hand. Jon is wearing a black shirt, the hand belongs to someone wearing a blue jacket with a white stripe on the sleeve. Looks like it might be a school team jacket. Who is it? I also wonder if the hoove's could be Jon's, would make sense if he's holding the camera.

Watching it backwards !

Yo guys !

The soundtrack is being played backwards - so why the video shouldn't ?

It looks like it has allot more sense when you run it backward, then you can clearly see that the hand is not Jon's hand, that in did who ever wears it has a blue coat while Jon is dressed in black.

So i think that this is just the moment of signing the contract between S&S and Jon, and maybe he is sending clues to the contract last password through that video ?

Go ahead, and speculate with me !

Nirke.

Interesting.... Jon was a (the?) "man in black" in that particular instance.... Could this mean anything?

i just got his from brigid:

Your location was right.

At 21.00 on Friday 28th January I finally caught up with my brother. As you can
imagine, he wept when he saw me.

Because you've kept your end of the deal, I am now honour bound to keep mine. So
don't worry, I've not forgotten the £10,946 reward – and I'm sure you haven't
either!

I'm currently waiting to receive the final funds from my generous corporate
benefactor and I'll let you know as soon as you can collect them.

Thanks again, all my love

Brigid x

I was thinking the same thing: the videomessage is probably a "last message" from jon, sent for us the very moment Brigid (definitely S+S) got him.
I feel like we have to rethink our strategy... if Jon is in their hands, maybe the only way to save him will be to get the Book of Star ourselves and finish what Jon was trying to do...

cryurchin posted he got the message at about 11 pm, so it could be possible...

EDIT: I really do follow you, when you say that we need to find the book ourselves to continue Jon's 'mission'.
We never knew what the videomessage was and i do think that it could be when brigid found Jon, and it is him telling us that Brigid isn't what she seems. That she is in with sable and chuck. An he can no longer defeat the MIB, cause Brigid caught/found him, so we should...

Wich would mean, we're in front of the same brick wall being the password for his contract or the mezanine door or our aqcuisition at S+S...grmbl :s
