Oh My God it's Twiggy (dunno his real name) from A Perfect Circle, ex-bassist of Marilyn Manson!

Well...wild guess...

It's Nancy DrewG I reckon. Ex-rampant, not what he used to be...Has mellowed out a bit, you know. No more flames, he was an angry fellow once - this place has welcomed Drew now, like a sanctuary would. Circle - Society? Group of people?

Though Envy would point more towards Serj Adjo...but maybe Drew was an envious fellow once.

I love Nancy DrewG

No idea, but that God quote seems to stem from Morpheus, an AI in the game Deus Ex.

I still don't get what those numbers point at, but what I've got scribbled down is:

Quote: "Duality,
Morpheus (Deus Ex),
Crono (Chrono Trigger)."


Seems obvious to me the others will probably also be games, including this one. A quick Google revealed that this is another AI, called Cortana from Halo. Would make sense, seeing a Halo is a cirkle.

Quote: "-There will be no more Sadness. No more Anger. No more Envy."


Seeing both are AI's, I wonder if we should be focussing on Chrono Triggers robot, but I forgot the name of it and have no time to Google it.

However, it's obvious we're looking at games at the moment. I considered "Sid Meyer's Pirates", "Pirates of the Carribean" or "Pirates of Port Royale" for the maurader one.

But what those numbers mean... no clue. Also, I haven't figured out the "Brethrens of Saladin" one yet.

Quote: "There will be no more Sadness. No more Anger. No more Envy.
I am NOT rampant. I am not what I used to be!"


First part refers to the three stages of rampancy from Marathon. Several AI become rampant (aka grow beyond the bounds of their programming) in Marathon; Tycho, Leela, and Durandal.

There is a member called Tycho, isn't there? I'm skeptical of a true Marathon/Halo reference, however. I'll look into other relations to rampancy.

Quote: "A perfect circle. This sanctuary.

2-3

"


Again, seems like a Halo or Marathon reference. Both games have circular (Halos and the Marathon station). 2-3 has me a bit baffled. I'm probably going off the trail, though.

It seems like an obvious Marathon/Halo link. Honestly, those seem direct quotes from Cortana.

It's an actual quote from Cortana. Just booted up the level in which she says that and her lines are:

"I'm just my mother's shadow. Don't look at me! Don't listen. I'm not who I used to be."

Are those actual clues? Or is the person just posting random garbage, throwing everyone off? Come on, person!*


* I of course can't participate in this game, as I can see all. But still, it's fun reading everyone taking part. Good idea by the way

C'mon, now why would s/he do that? You would have to be seriously evil and twisted to do such a thing...

Notice s/he has cunningly and subtly moved the subject away from Rome after it was the main talking point for half of these pages. Best to stretch it out a bit more eh?

If it's not Nancy Drew, then I'm going to say maybe Deadly Shadow or something like that...but really only those who worked on Rush a while back know this guy well enough and the awkwardness he was...I doubt it's him, but he was a massive Halo fan, seriously, he loved it to death. He was a bit awkward - and ended up being kicked out of the team and had a poor reputation with those members...maybe this is a reference to the shadow part of the name as well...

Unfortunately, I've pulled out another member nobody but a select few would get, so it's most likely NOT him...but I thought I'd mention just in case it was really him.

Quote: "Notice s/he has cunningly and subtly moved the subject away from Rome after it was the main talking point for half of these pages. Best to stretch it out a bit more eh?"


I would, but you said the Roman stuff links into Hitchhiker's Guide...but I don't own the bloody book and to hell I'm going down to Waterstones just figure the darn thing out. (Or the library for that matter)

As for the Halo, Deus Ex, Chrono Trigger stuff, well I can't have anything to do with it, I only played a little bit of Chrono Trigger and have never played the other two...so I'm not seeing the links. Dammit, I guess I forfeit until I see something I can figure out/contribute with.

This is a bit random, but I am Spartacus and so is my wife!

Look it up. Famous movie scene. Basically everyone says they are Spartacus to stop the romans from finding him. Very moving. Bit more evil in this case though... Also if I had an alternative login from a few months ago then I would be one step away from being really evil and working out a way to link it to all the clues (there is always a way...) and announce I was whatsisface. Lots of Mwahahaha ensues, especially if your workout was better. Pure evil...

Quote: "The fact that he writes your in place of you're makes me suspect one of two people. Of course I won't say who"
Ah, c'mon now, we are all un-literate up in Wales, so that doesn't help. Combined with the fact that a programmer has his brains turn off when it comes to spelling and grammar and all that after a decade or so of work...

Yes. I've seen you search.
And you'll see it too.

Now sounds exactly like Cortana. But what about the numbers with the dashes? It was 2-3 at one point, now it's 6-6.

Halo's a religion now? Oh bugger, I wonder why people have gotten away with all of these Halo discussions, quick mods, something needs to be done!

By the way, I think our 10 days is up tomorrow, that means hopefully, this person will reveal themselves and we'll slap ourselves for not getting it or yell 'I said his name 12 friggin' times!' lets see as I am fresh out of ideas/inspiration, as all of the current leads I have no knowledge/resources to follow.

I'm remaining with my original guess. DrewG all the way. One of those gut feelings I suppose, which means either (A) DrewG is rg0enu, or (B) I've eaten onions recently and I'm having an allergic reaction.

Matt, are you sure it can't be (C) a combination of (A) and (B)?

His last clue, honestly, no idea. I did indeed notice the change in numbers.

15-1
3:6 or 166-164
5-2
2-5
4-8
2-3
6-6

I'm getting the feeling it should be 3:6, seeing that no other 'keys' have more than a single digit (not counting fifteen). Also, it seems 15 is an odd number in the list.

Could be a numeric key corresponding to letters, or perhaps the string of characters he posted earlier. Either way, I'm no good at those kinds of things.

If you take a look at the "Cortana Letters", many of his recent clues seem to come from or are similar to lines in there. Don't know yet where that leads us.

Well not really...Glad Matt Rock agrees, it's DrewG, so I vote that the person is Nancy DrewG, I've had plenty of reason to believe that it is...so it's day 10, time to reveal yourself rg and tell us what we did wrong so we can kick each other in the shins.

Considering your join date shouldn't that be "my old home"?

Whatsisface should announce the answer now. We are all starting to not care (even more) and smack our knives and forks against the table.

Would be amusing if he was in the middle of typing the great Da Vinci code final post revealing everything and the web of intrigue he had created, then noticed the "who now?" comment and got cold feet... we could be rambling here with no light at the end of the tunnel for years...

Sooo...you reveal yourself and point out the clues or are you a cruel man/woman? If you are cruel, I'll find out where you leave and eat your soul, you know that don't you?

Ben, there's Indi and somebody else, I know you picked out Ionstream for doing it, but that was a one-timer...who's the other person?

If he doesn't tell us I'm sure we can convince one of the Mods to reveal their IP. And then go round his house with baseball bats. And shotguns. And small nuclear explosives. Not that that would be blowing things out of proportion at all.
