TempUserName Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I'm not going with the L stands for Loreley. I'm still thinking it stands for Loki.There's a lot more possibilites out there for "Murmuring Rock", I did some looking into waterfall projects and found crosslinks with AMD and Windows that went no where. Ahh isn't Loki a combination of the first 2 letters of the first / last names? LOrelei KItsune?!? I'd say the D&G is irrelevant. All time puzzles have been solved. The next puzzle box is 'Magic Happens', so i'd say no more watch/clock/time thoughts are needed anymore? I'd suggest the intro video just introduces Loki's passions, the watches for the first puzzle, the magician gloves for the second puzzle, herodotus and the book of history for the 4th puzzle? not sure about the 3rd yet..need to watch the vid again i guess u ppl are looking way to deep into things Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/529110-the-real-game-starts-puzzle-box-1/page/29/#findComment-588218830 Share on other sites More sharing options...

.Markus Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Interesting Find... This matter should be looked into Ran the SWF file through a decompiler, the actionscript is just set to random characters with length 5-9 letters long. As predicted, dead end guys.

hawkroth Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 (edited) I don't know if it has any significance but I found one of the weird text things on the D&G site (where the text cursor pops up) and I copied the text and it says "Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0" could this mean this site has possible ties to microsoft or is it just an unimportant glitch? also, everytime you refresh the gears are in a different position.

Panacik Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Hey guys, this is a thread to discuss the post-teaser Vanishing Point game at www.vanishingpointgame.comI'll be updating this first post with new info (with the help of members of the community). In the mean time, check out www.vanishingpointwiki.com, created by our good friends at unfiction. This has been split from the previous thread, starting with the post where it was noticed the site had changed. Cheers. Week 1 summary thanks to Manish's post [*]Emailing her at [email protected] leads to an email message saying: [*]Then some genius had the idea to ring MS & ask to be transferred to Loki [*]This connects you to the following message: "Awesome work. All knowledge eventually needs effective diagnosis." [*]Put the first letters to give "AWAKENED", which led to "http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/awakened" [*]The number given on the site requires you to provide a fax number [*]You receive a fax [*]It also reveals Loki's name is "L. Kitsume" [*]This AT&T building is now an AMD building & the phone number is "408 749 4000" & use extension "x55654" from the fax [*]The following message is heard: [*]Google or Wikipedia (or whatever) murmuring rock & you encouter the word/name Lorelei [*]Implying Loki's real name is Lorelei Kitsume & that's basically where we're at [*]Also a bunch of white squares have been found in the individual puzzles: location and zoomed in versions Looks good Rob. Cheers for the compilation. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/529110-the-real-game-starts-puzzle-box-1/page/29/#findComment-588219107 Share on other sites More sharing options...
momcubed Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Has anyone analyzed the notebook with the somewhat geometric scribblings in the -Hear the Challenge- video? Right after she says, "...the Vanishing Point? It's where things disappear, remember? I tried freezing the frame. Looks like some mathmetical equations, some green scribblings and a few geometric shapes. Just an observation.

yanni79 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Sweet. We should meet up at some point if you like. Specially because im not sure where the event is. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kitsune_in_popular_culture "Lorelei and Issac in the webcomic Black Tapestries webcomic appear as anthropomorphic foxes (Lorelei being a werefox) and both often behave as tricksters. Lorelei is also fond of alcohol and has many personality similarities to the modern depiction of Kitsune. Kitsune are mentioned as an explanation or how Lorelei briefly ended up in our universe, as drunken student occultists try to summon a Kitsune and summon the were-fox Lorelei instead (much to her confusion and rage). It should be noticed that neither Lorelei nor Issac are "Kitsune" as they are merely anthropomorphic foxes (Lorelei not full time)." Sneaky fox?
