I noticed that there is now scrawling over Alvar Hanso's bio page -- the same scrawling we've seen on the Newsletter page and Joop's page after Persephone showed us something on them. I'm wondering if that's a "Persephone has been here" sign? Or a sign that you've received all the information there was to get there? That is a general sign that the page has been hacked. It's a way that you can tell at a glance that you already cracked that part of the puzzle. It is a common practice on ARGs. It was also used on "The Beast" ARG a while ago.

Alternate Reality Game. "An alternate reality game is a cross media game that deliberately blurs the line between the in-game and out-of-game experiences, often being used as a marketing tool for a product or service." Wikipedia

Has anyone tried using this ROT13 decoding method on Hurley's numbers? Probably nothing, but just a thought . . .

Has anyone tried using this ROT13 decoding method on Hurley's numbers? Probably nothing, but just a thought . . . Yes... I've tried almost everything on them... And I'm pretty sure almost everything is already tried - even the most far-fetched stuff. And nothing... But then again - the producers have already said that the numbers themselves don't actually have any meaning...

Yup heard that too. But still i ask: what is the best explanation you've heard/seen for the numbers? (just curious)

Looks like the forums are going to have to sitch over to members only posting. Looks like no less than four posts by spam advertisers have hit in this night alone. That number will only increase... I knew it was only a matter of time.
