Well i said PGP but we explored MIME/B64 instead... now i'll try and poke it at PGP
but PGP is tricky as in: the original pgp is shite/commercial.
OpenPGP is dead, and GPG has a very different key than our mystery MD5 string.

So....stuck?

FlipperPA Peregrine · 07-30-2008, 04:45 PM

Damn, the Dharma wheel definitely makes this feel like the Lost ARG two summers ago!

Vaalith Jinn · 07-30-2008, 04:47 PM

Or the eight clues/lyrics that are still left unused?....

Dnate Mars · 07-30-2008, 04:47 PM

But the key is 8. Can that be used in PGP?

Ili Roviana · 07-30-2008, 04:50 PM

Reading this and it looks like the the public key would be the coded message on the page. I know nothing about this stuff, just googling.

Joshua Nightshade · 07-30-2008, 04:55 PM

Vaalith Jinn · 07-30-2008, 04:57 PM

^^ YUS! it's a pgp public key.

(this picture is merely a google find, an example)

Joshua Nightshade · 07-30-2008, 04:58 PM

So turn it into english!

Dnate Mars · 07-30-2008, 05:01 PM

Is it the key or is it the message?

Dnate Mars · 07-30-2008, 05:01 PM

Oh! Could it be that the #8 line is the key?

**Circle Widdershins** · 07-30-2008, 05:03 PM

/me blinks sleepily

We need to find a holy mountain inworld - under the youtube video it says .1 again - "The answer lies within so why not take a look now.

Plus the dude told us to have hiking boots.

I know there are some buddha sims with mountains.... Well I've been to at least one but I'm sure there are more. But arrgghh can't remember the name.

brb

Vaalith Jinn · 07-30-2008, 05:03 PM

i don't exactly know how pgp works, i only know that our mysterious MD5 is too little (missing 8 chars)
to be a pgp fingerprint..

but this huge gibberish is most likely a public key, ...for what?

Ili Roviana · 07-30-2008, 05:04 PM

Doing some reading on pgp, I keep seeing mention of a passphrase. Perhaps the 8 numbered messages (the lyrics lines) are passphrases?

I agree that SL is likely involved some how. I still feel like that UUID is involved. But we need to know more before we go searching cos SL is a big place.

Vaalith Jinn · 07-30-2008, 05:06 PM

Going inworld...

FlipperPA Peregrine · 07-30-2008, 05:08 PM

I'm still wondering if that unidentified UUID is an SL group. We didn't check that. UUIDs can apply to just about anything in SL - object, texture, sound, group, agent/avatar, animation, notecard, script...

Ili Roviana · 07-30-2008, 05:08 PM

Me too, I'm heading back to the shanti sim. There were mountains there. (hope it's not an innocent bystanders sim)

Vaalith Jinn · 07-30-2008, 05:11 PM

SL is being buggy... did you put that into your equation mr shanti-pants? ^.^

**Circle Widdershins** · 07-30-2008, 05:11 PM

well I'm at the Bodhi sim and looking at one hellava big mountain

The default search tp is a lotus flower

/me gets her hiking boots on

lol and someone is already on top of the mountain

I can see them on the mini map

Joshua Nightshade · 07-30-2008, 05:18 PM

I'm not sure if the Shanti sim is involved. It looks like real estate.

But the land info was interesting:

You tell YOUR story about it, YOUR meaning when you visit. This island is for you and your peace and growth. It is up to you to get what you need and want from it in peace and love

And there's a movie and media URL at the landing point of the sim:

Second Life: Official site of the free 3D online virtual world

**Circle Widdershins** · 07-30-2008, 05:19 PM

k - top of the mountain is a meditation pose with "Namaste!" floating text and some Tibetan text floating above it.

FlipperPA Peregrine · 07-30-2008, 05:21 PM

There's a Shanti Island group too. Found it through the advanced web search.

"Namaste!" would also tie into the Lost ARG theme. Dharma wheel, Namaste - I wonder what other parallels there might be. Anyone seen Alvar Hanso lately?

Joshua Nightshade · 07-30-2008, 05:27 PM

If this is about Lost I will be so fucking pissed.

So fucking pissed.

**Circle Widdershins** · 07-30-2008, 05:30 PM

hehe - the only problem is EVERYTHING on this Bodhi sim seems significant. I found a 'scroll' in a hut (near a yak!

) for Mount Meru - sometimes called Mount Sumeru - which is the sacred home of the gods in both Buddhist and Hindu religions, and is supposed to be the centre of the universe.

But this could also be completely unrelated to this Shanti stuff and probably is *sigh
