Clue #67 - RoT Clues - Money, Experiences, Check, Sorrow, and Tomorrow!
FRIDAY: MONEY and EXPERIENCES:
1. First See Clue # 65. We found a 3-layer document by guessing 2 of the clues. Today, we see what was supposed to happen in order to find the link to the MONEY page that was found yesterday by Dennis by simply guessing. We were supposed to notice a new image posted at Mandrake Wig's Flickr Site that shows a truck on grass that's "green like MONEY."
2. Also, looking below the other picture, it says "Get a clue: Direct observation or participation?"... doing a google search for these exact words will reveal to you that this as an exact definition for "EXPERIENCES. " So we also have our 7th word in the list of RoT clues (See below for more on RoT clues).
SATURDAY: CHECK, SORROW, and TOMORROW:
There has been new chatter on the RoT message board, and this time it gives us 2 new "clue words". If you are not familiar with the RoT clue words, you'll have to check the comments in previous posts b/c we were initially skeptical about the Retrievers and did a slack job of tracking their words. To boil it all down...up until this morning they have been leading us to SOMETHING LIKE THIS URL. We're still looking for more words to discover exactly where and what it is they are leading us to.
1. So...First, there's this conversation:
DSLerator You need to get a clue.
10:43am
iobiSeeingYou But from where my love?
10:44am
DSLerator You get it from the waitress! THE END?
10:45am
The last part about what you get from the waitress at the end indicates to us that our 8th word in the string is "check". CHECK HERE.
2. Then we see the following dialogue:
BroadBandBeatnik That stunk.
11:04pm
Fiberoptician SORROW
11:05pm
BroadBandBeatnik What?
11:04pm
Fiberoptician Nothing.
11:05pm
And we have our third word, "sorrow" (See SORROW here), for that 3 layer document mentioned above. This was guessed by BellyOfDesire 2 days ago.
3. And then finally...Just by luck, once again, acts4food in our comments put a "tomorrow" on the string we already had and got a LOGIN BOX. We're on board with the RoT stuff and are looking to see what happens next!
Thanks to Tim, lhorse007, Laurie and acts4food for being the first to email

i just got here. and i have to go soon.
Haven't heard anyone talk about the RoT newsletter sent via personal e-mail yesterday referring to a "new password."
Songbird61
the password is polar bear.
Check check. Testing. Sibilance. Sibilance.. Check.
Morning, everyone!
I fell asleep watching the middle of Season 2 earlier this morning and awoke to the weird dream that Charlie had, involving his mother and Claire, saving the baby, and the white dove. Very weird indeed... hehehehe Hurley Jesus.
So do we now have: Welcome/your/next/video/needs/your/experience/Check?
maven: Yes. It checks out as positive. We need to wait for the last word now.
omni: Yeah, sorry that had to stay secret all night. It would have gotten bogged down by lurkers and trolling if we had posted our collective finds and thoughts before everything was finalized. Who tosses the link your way, by the way?
Cool. I should check up on that to see how far it has progressed since I wandered off.
Can't stay today guys, but wanted to point out real quick that it should be "experiences", with an "s" at the end. Wish I could be around when we get the last word, though.
Have fun!
yeah id like to stay too, but ill be too busy watching superman. oh well.
tonight probably. im going to the regal union sq.
well, i know what you look like. if i actally see you, ill say hi.
btw- didnt they say that the last word for the RDB was coming today. that would mean that check would be the last word. it just doesnt make sense.
but one way "check" being the last world WOULD make sense is that its the 8th word. and 8 is obviously one of the "numbers."
im forgetting how we know there will be eight words... can someone refresh my memory.... thanks
http://www.richerdeeperbroader.com/welcome/your/next/video/needs/your/experiences/check/tomorrow
im assuming we'll get username and pass in an email sometime tomorrow or the next day... hence why we need to check tomorrow
thanks for the tip marcusallencooper. but regal union sq has always been more convenient. its just a short trip on the Q train, and im there. to go to lincoln ctr, id have to go to 42 st, transfer to the 1, and IMAX is like $15 i heard. but thanks anyway.
and i think the video wont be up till tomorrow. the sentence is really:
Welcome. Your next video needs your experiences. Check tomorrow.
experience in what?
experience with nun-chuck skills? hahaha
maybe something bad will happen in the video(ie. rachel is kidnapped) and we need to use our experience so far to save her..? just a thought.
well its not u: spider p: protocol
maybe the user name is one of the RoT people.
Is SORROW either the u/n or password? Haven't seen where that word has come in to play yet. Did I miss something?

ps: idaho girl how do you know it recognized fiber's name?
I'll try to see if i can make out any words on the images too...
i can see the word download very clearly too... the other words are hard to make out... maybe if we play with the opcaity some more we can figure it out?
There's a new thread at ITE. Speaker has linked to a pretty awesome map of events that someone named Jonah compiled. It's pretty interesting. You should check it out. Be warned: when he says its HUGE, he means massive!
I just tried username DSLerator. the same thing happened. So the username isnt definately fiberoptician yet.
the best way to try to view it is by messing with the brightness, contrast and midtone levels.... if anyone knows how to reverse the polarity of the image it be just the thing we need to be able to see what is written on top of the letter
Guys, great podcast. Just finally listened to it and I laughed so hard I cried. Alan Thicke! I figured out the whole point of this ARG- I prayed for patience once. Sorry, everyone, this whole thing is my fault. lol
Thanks for posting the screenshot, nai. Appreciate it for those of us who don't have the software or know how.

Anyone else getting this ?
liika,
Just came on the board, which image is that that you are manipulating to find the letters?
random guess, pandora.
no, seriously.
Hey all! WOW..I had a long night...stayed up till 5am! NEVER recomend that LOL

http://www.askdrz.com/
It is ANSWERING HANSO QUESTIONS!!!
kinetic got some answers!!! YAH!
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
It is a great find!!! Thanks!
I asked two things:
Who is persephone?
How do I reach DJ Dan?
No immediate answers :(
Can I use my iPod or MP3 player in my Chrysler, Jeep or Dodge?
An iPod integration kit, is projected to be available from Mopar for factory and Mopar aftermarket radios with auxiliary input jacks. Stay tuned with your local Parts department for the latest in product updates/availability. iPod is a registered trademark of Apple Computers, Inc.
I do not think we are gonna find any LOST answers here......
What answers did Kinetic get? Via email? I asked why their contract with THF was cancelled. Dr. Z said he didn't have an answer to that question...yet!
acts4food: What new stuff do you see? Checked fiber optic and music page, I don't notice anything different.
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
Now I see those new links. Thanks acts4food.
Lena and everyone else: The Timeline is on TLE Research Blog. Scroll down to it. There's a link on (this site) to my blog. I moved it because it was making TLER too long. Please check it out and make suggestions or corrections in the comments. Thanks.
gotcha! sorry for that!
Lena: You scared me for a second!
Lena: btw: Awesome research job on the Mandrake/Hoffitt video/flickr thing. You should post something on TLER about it so more of us can see it.
OK, I did a google for "Direct observation or participation" and didnt get any of that...am I doing it wrong????? Sorry, yes late in this part of game...but was busy.
Maven: didnt mean to scare ya, I am tired and dingy from staying up WAY too late. LOL
Yes, here is the link for everyone!
video research here!
Thank you maven!
Hi all.
Still trying to catch up on the comments. What is hoffitt video if you dont mind me asking?
Is it the "company" that made the "out of game" orientation type video and the flying saucer video and the one that lena recently found and posted in comments?
And more???
Or have I got it all wrong?
wizard...no no no...
go read my blog, the link posted above...it also has links to everything referenced for ya!
teamlena:
Thanks so much for the video research link and to all those who contributed. You just gave me a whole bunch more to look at :).
thanks wizard...
And I promise...no flying saucer! :)
here is a little trivia on the research video blog...
last night AFTER we went live...joe (my hubby) informs me that I typoed on the html link name....
If you look real carefully, you will see it says videorearchlost LOL
IT SHOULD SAY: videoresearchlost LOL
http://videorearchlost.blogspot.com/
TOO LATE TO CHANGE NOW LOL
OMG. That was some awesome readng team lena. I cant belive how much you managed to tie together.
You guys are great.
Unfortunately I gota go to bed now but thanks again.
Lena: I had this weird dream an hour ago about who you emailed me about leaking the blog's link, which then got (somehow) polluted with comments and ended up being closed early due to trolling, and you were blaming me about it and I felt really bad. Werid freaking dream. Darn you, TLE, invading my MIIIIIND!!
Good finds so far, everyone. I'm going to try to log off until tomorrow. Work must be done.
hadmatter - in the latest ROT thread. you get it from the waitress
Hey guys. Nothing really to add to the discussion and question for U/Ps. I'm gonna keep trying random stuff and will let you know if I hit it.
But anyway, I was just chatting to Kyle on the IRC chatroom and decided to pimp the room a bit. So if anyone wants to chat in realtime then get yourself over to #lostclueteam on irc.crazeecanuck.homelinux.net
Dragon put up a great Tutorial for anyone not familiar with IRC and it's very easy to gain access.
Btw, I'd also like to pimp Trillian, cos I use it to IRC as well as ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, AIM and Jabber. It's just cool and the IRC bit is dead simple and a good alternative to mIRC. Although I know some people prefer the mIRC interface.
Before the Lost Game, there was the Lost Island, remember?
Check this out: Savants, Smokey, Air Balloon, Large Ships, Electric Discharge and REALLY Big Birds.

not exactly. the electromagnets were destroyed in the explosion.
btw-superman was awesome.
no, we didnt get the balcony. but we got good seats. where did she tell you that?
ive actually never sat in the front row of that balcony. ive always sat on the bottom floor.
yeah. it was theater 8. it was right when you walk in.
we sat next to eachother.
you know what i mean. i mean after the two escalators, and the ticket collector. you walk down the hallway. make a left and boom, you're there.
the problem i had with the movie is that it was too slow. they could have easily cut out half an hour of the movie by just picking up the pace.
this doesnt feel like the right place to discuss this.lol.
i had the same problem. i would have ended it differently.
ok. ill stop talking about this now.
everyone is saying the 3D was awesome. i might check it out if i get the chance.
did they have the spiderman 3 preview?
you havent seen the spiderman 3 preview? it looks awesome.
go to themoviebox.net
click on trailers
click on Spiderman 3
One more shameless plug for my research for those who have not seen it.

Good night all!
is there anyone else thinking that the experience, although definitely now interesting in the way it updates everyday, is getting a bit more confusing?
i mean, with all the sites to keep up with, rachel blake, ROT and the dj dan podcasts (that seem unrelated but I'm sure we'll have to dig up something in the old podcasts for a password or something), this seems to get much more all encompassing.
all this stuff with ROT and the guy with the crazy face (sorry, not really up to snuff with that) seem completely unrelated to how the experience started, with the hanso foundation.
if someone (since I haven't been keeping up to the date on the ROT very much) can fill me in on how it's related at all, I would be very grateful

i'll never tell: Re whether or not Mandrake and WAlly are the same person - There's been discussion that Mandrake is DSLerator. No confirmation for sure.
rikyd: We're waiting until "tomorrow" to get the last part. Maybe username and password?
marcusallencooper: Thanks for the plug for The Lost Experience Research Blog (and for the Timeline which I update regularly). Lots of interesting stuff there. (thelostexperienceresearch.blogspot.com) You can go straight to the Timeline at tletimeline.blogger.com
i just talked to him too:
Tapdawg2004 (10:34:19 AM): hello?
Tapdawg2004 (10:34:35 AM): any word on the hanso foundation?
iobiSeeingYou (10:35:05 AM): do you know the password?
Tapdawg2004 (10:35:18 AM): polar bear
iobiSeeingYou (10:35:43 AM): cool
iobiSeeingYou (10:35:51 AM): so pass this on: Rob Morrow's daughter...
Tapdawg2004 (10:36:28 AM): who is rob morrorw's daughter?
Tapdawg2004 (10:36:44 AM): wait do you mean Tu Morrow?
iobiSeeingYou (10:37:13 AM): shhh
Tapdawg2004 (10:37:25 AM): alright... i'll spread the word
Tapdawg2004 (10:39:25 AM): I've found the link you wanted me to find, will I be finding out the username and password on Monday?
iobiSeeingYou (10:43:25 AM): don't stress... keep looking
how are the photoshoppers coming along with the editing of the money/blood/sorrow pic? Can we make out anything on it yet?
yeah i've been trying to but i can't make anything out
okay guys i have confirmation:
Tapdawg2004 (10:47:27 AM): Would it be wise of me to focus my attention on the money/blood/sorrow memo picture?
iobiSeeingYou returned at 10:48:25 AM.
iobiSeeingYou (11:00:04 AM): i'd say so
shakey... check out the top left corner of the pictures.... there is hidden text super small on it... the password and username for the website is written up there.... we can't read it. we need to be able to read it.
Hey... I've been gone for a lil' while dealing with a-holes in morning radio... but I thought I'd mention this just because I'm trying to come back to my home with the LOST EXPERIENCE and all the other good things in my life.
I'm doing a comedy radio show tonight on INTERNET RADIO: http://www.freeradiosaic.org
It's called GRAND NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP and it's on from 8-9 central time on FreeRadioSAIC.org.
Okay, that's all. Back to L.E. talk.
Anyone else feeling discombobulated with the switch over from the Hanso website and that stuff to the new Rachel/Persephone worldwide blog?
the word before download might be music?
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
sionix: Thanks for the link. Very hard to make anything out except "download".
Anybody else have another version for us photoshop-challenged?
Thanks, jenni. Boy, that's tough to make out! Definitely see "download". So would this be for finding the video or giving us the username/password?
guy's it's this money/blood/sorrow picture we need to be looking at:
here's what i posted a few posts up:
Tapdawg2004 (10:47:27 AM): Would it be wise of me to focus my attention on the money/blood/sorrow memo picture?
iobiSeeingYou returned at 10:48:25 AM.
iobiSeeingYou (11:00:04 AM): i'd say so
let's concentrate on that image and try everyimage editing trick we can think of to be able to read more of that image besides the word "download"... possibly the words could be facing different directions... try looking at the images upside down and backwards.... the answer is on there somehow.
Found this over in TLEC message board:
http://www.drkdesign.com/cluesmb/viewtopic.php?t=426
Look for PandoraX post. She can see "public company" in the hidden text, and I agree...after messing with her posted image today. (http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h209/AngeBrooke/blood2.jpg
P.S. did a search for this in today's and yesterday's comments couldn't find mention of public or company...forgive me if it's already been said:)
I agree with jenni. Remember the 3 parts were related to colors: red/blood; green/money; blue/sorrow. What about yellow or another color? Maybe there's a part 4.
hey everyone!
GGEEESS...no login and password yet huh?
i woke up to a new friend request on my flickr...probably nothing but is pics of swans and stuff. not very personal pics either.
Here is his link just in case...once again saying, its probably nothing, but be my guest and check him out.
Also, look at his icon pic...cant make out what it is:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/12339989@N00/
**HE added mandrakewig and JWH1972 as HIS friends, though JHW has yet to return favor. JWH1972 STILL only has me and mandrakewig as friends.**

My bad...the dates are not mixed up LOL I didnt see the year at first!
I thought I would let you all know about a good FREE image editor that has a number of effects. It even opens .psd (photoshop) files.
It is called GIMP. To install it you need to install two things. The first link is the install file for the runtime environment for GIMP and the second link is actual GIMP program. Have fun.
runtime installer
GIMP installer
I cannot help get the feeling we are supposed to look at RDB to get more info. Someone mentioned new words appearing (what are these - I cannot see - sorry?). "experience movies" interests me as it has the word experience in it.
Clicking it gives the "cabaret woman".
Any thoughts?
I wondered if the first words of the different sections meant anything but I dont think so.
Experience, Go, Pursue, Fuel, Feel and Explore. Just in case anyone notices anything I cant.
Also, if you want to use the Gimp but finding yourself wanting a photoshop like environment try out http://www.gimpshop.net/ where they have a Photoshop style interface on the Gimp.
Has anyone watched those student movies about the transformative effect of broadband? I started watching one but got really bored. Perhaps there is a clue in them somewhere to what the password is.
Just a quick shout out to let followers of my video blog know there is a new updates post from me!
click here but if you have already visited this before, you might need to hit refresh to see updates...
thanks, team lena
Non-value-adding comment:
That EXPERIENCE picture is super creepy. Ugh...
what experience picture?
TEAM Lena
The video you found by HoffittFilms; have you had a chance to screen cap the video, and see if there are any clues, that might have been missed by "viewing video only"? Several of the students in the video could be in the age range of Wally and Mandrake.
The "Tomorrow" word clue has been confirmed by ibiseeingyou from the RoT board. See the AIM discussion posted here:

enzovalenztti.com
thevalenzettiequation.com
All take me to the same Register.com website saying these sites are coming soon.
Does this mean anything significant?
I'm predicting one of these Valenzetti sites will go live after Rachel posts her first Italy blog entry.
http://www.floweroflife.org/toverview4.htm
not the official web site, but note the first pic, the dot in a circle.
This symbol has been echoed on Lost, the most prominent place was on front of flight 815 pilot's cockpit area, outside the plane.
Yes, picsel and matt, I mean the picture with the pie... doesn't that creep anyone else out? Seriously, this game just got a whole lot spookier with that picture alone. (They look like two serial killers!)
Anyway, good work, everyone! It's nice to come home from work and have the day's business all worked out for me! :)
There have been a number of confirmations of "tomorrow" from AIM chats with iobi. Ctrl+F for "Tu Morrow" So we have got ahead, but they've still dished the clues out per their schedule.

sorry, I was looking at the hidden blog. Ah, so we finally have the San Remo post. de ja vu ;-)
Morning All! I see we have nothing new....yet!!! I hope they did not take a vacation!!
rachel updated her cover blog. but were still waiting for an update of her secret blog.
Chopsshaw - Yes, I think they are trying to be funny with that one...so how do we come up with the password?
BBB has these words in Italics - Scheme, Server, and Path....could that mean something?
new rot post:
iobiSeeingYou
9:10am Ok folks, so you should now have nine words.
Fiberoptician
9:15am Nein! Sorry for the german... the first clue too.
BroadBandBeatnik
9:17am Now DSL, tell them what they win!
DSLerator
9:21am If you have all nine words and they should be in the correct order, you now have to go back to http://richerdeeperbroader.com/ and use the nice words as your path to what you really want... a clue.
BroadBandBeatnik
9:24am Ok you start with your "scheme" (the http part) then you go to your "server" (the richerdeepbroader.com part) then you have you "path" with each word separated by a "/" (that's a forward slash boys and girls).
Fiberoptician
9:27am There goes trip B's treating everybody like a little kid again. Thanks daddy!
iobiSeeingYou
9:10am But you can't just grab the brass ring. You've got to have the password and we can't give you that.
DSLerator
9:33am Gotta find that one on your own.
sounds like i was right about the picture having the password on it...
Which picture? I think brass ring has something to do with it...
Rachel Blake's European Holiday blog has been updated with her Italian Riviera Post.
Long time "lurker", new poster.
Hmm.. I think we need to find some sort of username too right?
Whenever I tried out just a password, it would ask me for a username.
Or do we already know the username?
Do we know what the screen name is yet? We need that and the password!
Gadzooks!!!
i think the persephone page was just used for act I. i dont think it will play into the game anymore. but i could be wrong.
