Puzzle Box 3

[irulats]

I think myself that CONTEST referred to the Olympics which were held in Athens spelt ATHENA in Greek (using roman letters of course).

[rcorp]

Someone pointed out the page www.elitemuser.com. There is a link to another website, www.thunderbirdtalk.com. In the forum, Loki is there as a registered user with five posts, which might have some clues in it.

[troist]

elitemuser.com is a fake... its registered to the wrong company. theres also an invisible counter on that page, so i expect the guy is seeing how many people will go there.

[rcorp]

OK so some guy loki registered on thundirbirdtalk on 10-21-2006, then waited still, then 3 days ago changed his profile to fit "our" loki id and posted a few strange messages. Well, might be, there are many strange people on the net.

Triton (A merman) , Princess Ariel's father in the Disney animated film The Little Mermaid.

notice the "mermaid" connection, murmuring rock -> mermaid singing...

it looks like we aregiven several leads, all going to the same answer..

[allifm]

I don't know if this has anything to do with the game, but I came across this link, the blogger looks very much like Loki

Other than her profile picture and the fact that her husband is called loki, it doesn't look that related at all

Has anyone thought of finding out who the director for the movie "Enigma" was, i went on IMDB and a recent movie was made (2001) but i cant see a link with it's director,

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0157583/

will look for other movies with the same name in my spare time.

There was a televeision series as well...?

To all the NEOWIN TEAM that is putting their two cents on. Wonderfull job. Like Confusio say in one of his last post we should have one forum that wecan discuss what we have now starting from the pregame information then week one, week two and week three.

this way we keep the forum going with interesting information that we can gather.

Job well done to all the Neowin Team.

Thought FWIW-

There is an enigma 'behind the glass' at the NSA museum at Fort Meade (or at lease was a few years ago).

[allifm]

This is what I get from the video of the glasses: 1. She uses hands - in this sequence: LLRLR 2. She says - in same sequence: R UP R DOWN L

Now to just figure out her meaning

[tgeairn]

Loki - 22 years Old

Microsoft - 22 Years Old

Loki - Visited nearly every country by 21st Brithday

Microsoft Windows - In nearly every country

Loki - MIT Connection

Microsoft - Started with it's first customer in Albuquerque, MIT Systems

Loki - Never called in sick

Windows - Always working somewhere

Loki - Memorized The phonebook photographic memory

Windows Based PC - Virtual photographic memory

Loki - Vanishes with launch of Vista

Windows - Vanishes with launch of Vista

Hmmm... Seems interesting, but actually WINDOWS is 22 years old (first release of Windows 1.0 was in 1985). Microsoft is older.

Windows ME (2000) was codenamed neptune...? on Loki's 15th birthday?

[kwasior]

This is what I've learned from loki:

In each of movies she is change her seat to right.

In each of movies she is holding requisite from pregame and hmmm... now time is for ?The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire - Vol 2 by Edward Gibbon? I think ...

Her name Loki Kitsune ... first name and surname show someone with dual nature...

For anyone interested this site gives some insight to the history of Windows including years of release....

If this guy is not our LOKI he sure is her Brother or something.

[troist]

Dont mean to take us a giant step backward puzzle wise but while doing some more digging on the meta puzzle came across this. It may seem irrelavant but check it out....dosent it show a unique similarity to the fill in the blank page in the tomb puzzle. THat was useless info we didnt need to solve the tomb puzzle, so maybe its used for something else in the game?

picture was taken from http://goodfelloweb.com/giza/

[ActionJoe]

I know all the puzzles have been solved but i have a quick question. Where are the rest of the pictures for puzzle box three? When I click on the pictures for the event button it only shows one picture. (The one with the star and 17 rays)

[maji]

Its PI!

Hi I'm new...........3.1415 is Pi

Also, letters ML at the top of the page are Roman letters for 1000, and 500.

Hope this helps

That wasnt very useful...

[Aeschylus Maximus]

That wasnt very useful...

Neither was saying that.

SO i guess we are now stuck till the next box opens? because by the looks of it we gotta solve all the puzzles and get all the white boxes before she asks us "the question"

I rode my bicycle to the "event" in San Francisco last night. Hardly anyone was there.

None of the technicians there were conversive. They technically showed the images while testing their equipment an hour earlier; but I returned at 7 PM after dining at Fisherman's Wharf. The weather was ideal.

It was impressive to see how they projected the images onto the Palace of Fine Arts.

But the carved decorations of Palace's walls led to "false clues". Seeing the light blue "i" to the left of Neptune's trident, we looked for other such images. We thought we saw other white letter "i"s above the steam locomotive and on the telephone, but it was just arms of the characters carved into the walls.

Overall it was kind of a non-event.

You guys are awesome in your puzzle-solving talents!

I just heard that the grand prize is a trip into space. 330,000 ft into space.

Going back to History Lesson for a moment.

Although the final answer and general method were posted, I haven't yet seen the intermediate answers for the locations of the events depicted. Does anyone have a link or an explanation?
