If you have a PC, mIRC or X-Chat. For Mac OS X, I prefer Colloquy and there's also X-Chat Aqua.

Barcode

About the barcode on the poster:
I wrote down all the code as letters.
B - big white bar
b - big space
S - small white bar
s - small space

Then I split it into groups of 10 and assigned the letters.

Code:
BbBsSsSsSs   w
BbBsSsSsSs   w
BbBsSsSsSs   w
BbSsSsBsSs   .
BsSsSbSsBs   a
BsSsSsBbSs   r
BsSsBbSsSs   e
SsBsSsBbSs   s
SsBsSsBbSs   s
SsSsBsBbSs   t
BsSsSbSsBs   a
SsSsBsBbSs   t
SsBsSbBsSs   i
BsSsBsSbSs   o
SsSsBsSbBs   n
BbSsSsBsSs   .
BsBsSbSsSs   c
BsSsBsSbSs   o
BsBsSsSbSs   m


Just in case we find more barcodes.

* edit: completely changed my approach

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the numbers are: 6F 66 6D 65 67 61
and the address I get is: ofmegaSPLATaresstation.com


I'll send a mail to check if it's ok..

Edit: One of the digits in the address was wrong, changed the mail address in spoiler section...

I saw it to

I got the ImInvisibleWatchtheForumsImInvisible email too. I also find it intriguing that visit all of thier forum websites... You look at current members and it say (X)Online (X) guests and then it is always followed by 1 Hidden....think that is the invisible person?

Job

I got mine from submitting a fake resume as well. What is the correct chat URL, that link on the other post is bad.
Also Right now on citizens.Aresstation.com it says that Mary Haynes is online viewing the site right now......She is the citizen who created the Ares Station blog. Another update already?

A little mythology

Ares - god of war, son of Zeus
Mars - Roman name for Greek's Ares
Athena - sister of Ares

Also, I found this story: Ares promised Hera to support the Aechaeans in the Trojan war, but broke his word. In battle he was confronted by an Aechaean warrior guided by Athena, who made herself invisible to Ares by wearing Hades' helmet.

Speculation
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Is the invisible one Athena and is she trying to guide us to kill Ares/Mars?

I e-mailed Mary with some questions for her FAQ, asked about seven of them and slipped the question 'Who is Hannah' in there very subtlely. *heh heh*

On the 'God of War' line of spec, I was suprised that Karttikeya popped up. Just not used to seeing him mentioned in the same breath as Ares and Mars... seemed strange.
