Revision as of 21:26, 18 May 2009

There has just been a new "tweet" on this page. It just has the text:

"QW5kIFdpdGggVGhpcyBGaXJlIEkgUHVyaWZ5"

Anyone have any clue what this means? --EmTea 01:54, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

It doesn't return anything as a Youtube vid (malformed ID, might be missing something), and a vague idiot's fumble with an online Vigenere cipher doesn't return anything useful yet. Kvairson 02:01, 17 May 2009 (UTC)KVairson

Yeah I don't know where to begin with this. Edit: It translates to "And With This Fire I Purify" in Base 26 I think. Also if you DM epithetalpha on Twitter they will reply back with "Are you a candidate? Await further instructions May 18." --EmTea 02:16, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

The latest tweet from Epithet Alpha refers to it (the Twitter page?) being defaced by "AIDONEUS", who, according to Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aidoneus) was a mythological king and owner of the three-headed dog Cerberus (Smokey?). The Twitter user page now displays a black background and a black avatar. Lost and found 07:19, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Maybe the reference to Aidoneus and Cerberus is a clue that Jacob's nemesis isn't the Smoke monster but is in control of it?--Madhvija 07:47, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

27Project, which Epithet linked to earlier today, doesn't seem to have been created for an ARG. The gallery is labelled "Howard and Mark Dawber"--they're real people, a British Labour politician and his brother (I think). So probably a preexisting site. Which tells me something smells. Someone is pulling our collective leg. DharmaAndWreck 14:04, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
