Things to solve
6 athletic attributes
On the second podcast from Eli Hunt the six attributes of an athlete are mentioned:
- sofia = wisdom
- thumos = courage
- chariton = charm
- dikaiosune = leadership
- sophrosune = temperence
- mythopeia = storytelling
The 6 amnesiacs suddenly "remember" names:
- Mei Hui = sofia696 (see video)
- Markus = thumos696 (see blog entry)
- Noriko = sophrosune696 (see video)
- Diego = mythopoeia696 (see video)
- Lucie = chariton696
The number 696 is a reference that 2008 is in the 696th olympiad (= 4 years) since the first olympiad (776 BC).
Thelostring.com video I
- On the thelostring site a video is shown, having some interesting "hidden" information. (Caps from the video)
- Several text snippets could be seen, leading to: When you ready to receive data look to delphi
- The following cap has been identified as Bryant Park, NY
- The Code:
- Some attempts have been made to decipher (1) the blurry Greek letters (2) the meaning.
- The following have been suggested, mostly places:
Athena
Olumpia (Olympia)
Th bai (Thebes, missing e)Thermopulai (Thermopylae)
leusis (Eleusis, missing E)
pidauros (Epidauros, missing E)Argos
lis (Elis, missing E)
Tegea
- Map of the identified cities
Eli podcast pictures
- There are several pictures from the Eli podcasts, which still need translation/interpretation.
- To avoid redundant information, the pictures could be found with the respective podcasts
Monica and the story of 1888
- Monica wrote an email to Diego in which she said the same story happened many years ago. Three images have been attached to the email, one showing the backside of a postcard.
- Translates to coordinates (where the former 6 athletes have been?)
- we are here 40.4167, -3.7033 (-->MADRID - Sol metro srtation)
- and here 51.4646, -0.1705 (-->LONDON - Clapham Junction railroad station)
- and here 55.6763, 12.5681 (-->COPENHAGEN - Looks like this might be a bus station?)
- and here 42.3589, -71.0568 (-->BOSTON - State subway station)
- and here 43.6702, -79.3868 (-->TORONTO - Bloor Yonge subway station)
- and here -22.9035, -43.2096 (-->RIO DE JANEIRO)
- Monica sent a scan of the book she showed in the video
Transcription...
- There is an Omphalos Code in the book: 595 Trident 20
- 595 Stadion are about 110 km
- Trident --> Poseidon --> Pisces --> South --> 180 degree plus 20 degree offset --> 200 degree
- Target point (?) is 110 km SSW of the starting point (?)
The Omphalos Code
- After finding The Secret of Eli's, and watching his podcast on the omphalos code, much studying is going in to map out the code system itself, a matrix of greek gods, representative images, and the zodiac
- Details can be found at Omphalos
The Secret
- a rotating earth, random dots on populated areas, some red, some green - what's the significance?
- puzzle trail at The Secret
Questions and mysteries
Who runs 164.109.150.213 - The Secret?
- Meihui asked the question in her video on March 12, pointing out the likelihood that Eli isn't running it.
What do the red and green dots mean?
- On the rotating globe at 164.109.150.213 are coloured dots. What do they represent?
What exactly is the "lost ring", and can it(?) be found?
- Is the "ring" a thing to be found, or is "lost" referring to a state of being, where the thing can't be "found" per se, but rather more like "forgotten", "ancient", or "abandoned". -- have we already found the lost ring?
