Level 2

On the Identicryption website players discover a link to Powers Patios.  They discover a form on this website which they use to email Powers Patios to get information about Identicryption.

New pages posted on Alices Evidence show a scanned in image of a book that mention Alice possessing a symmetric key.  The playertheyeti emails good guyAlice asking her about this key. They get a response they don't understand.

playertheyeti and playerjelloarm contact Powers Patios who provides a glowing reference of Identicryption and contact detail for good guySean Browne.

good guyAlice posts another riddle.

The players work out that the riddle should give them a 4 letter and 5 letter word that will be the password for bad guyBruce's (Robert Dunne) emails but have trouble getting further with it.

They email good guySean attempting to find more information on bad guyBruce, good guyDavid and the problems with the Identicryption website and recieve these responses.

playerB Quad also recieves a reply from good guyJen which clarifies a number of issues:  good guyDavid and good guyKaren have gone missing and good guyJen suspects that she's next on the list. The link between the three of them is Identicryption. good guyMax thinks Identicryption is part of a larger organisation and is trying to track down good guyKaren.

She suggests that they try contacting good guyMax as he seems to know more than she does.

Another riddle is emailed to playertheyeti by Alice. From this riddle playerMrToasty work out that they are supposed to turn the 'symmetric key' upside down and it reads: lookalive.  When they use this password in combination with the bad guyBruce's username they can access his email. They have problems determining the format of his username and password but as Pg 12 is added to Alices Evidence the password provided there for good guyKaren hints at the structure that should be used.

playerjelloarm works out the passwords and they gain access to bad guyBruce's email.

It is here that we first encounter the Character of bad guyGeorge.  He has been e-mailing bad guyBruce regarding some used Cars that bad guyBruce wants to find and get rid of.  Players quickly put together that junking cars is code for killing people.

Within the emails playerscottybrobro also finds a link to the website Dog Eared Dreams. They see that it has a members area that they cannot access.  It also has a membership request form.  A number of players request membership.

They recieve membership acceptance to Dog Eared Dreams and are sent a Username and Password. The search function on the site now works for them although they do not have much luck to begin with.

playertheyeti emails good guyLeah Marks - bad guyBruce's PA and ask for a meeting with good guyDavid and bad guyBruce.   She informs them that good guyDavid is on 'extended leave' from the company.

playerjelloarm emails George's Yard inquiring about aquisition of a car.  The replies received are clearly hinting at a service for disposing of people but bad guyGeorge requires collateral in the form of a face-to-face meeting before taking a contract.

Meanwhile good guyMike on Aftermath08 is feeding extra information: good guyDavid told good guyKaren about some thing going on at Identicryption; Something about 'good guySarah', 'good guyGerard' and a secret project. Georges Yard has definately something to do with it. 

playerscottybrobro makes the connection between good guyGerard and the list of names for staff party on page 22

playertheyeti sends good guyMax an email and receive a reply.  He seems pretty annoyed and suspicious of them. He doesn't know who good guyAlice but is interested in finding out.

playerGlyni works out that the make and model of the cars serves as a username for Georges Yard Login it asks you for a password. playerjelloarm also makes the connection between the car names and the emails in bad guyBruces inbox.

They email good guyDeirdre at Dog Eared Dreams and she hints that The Brothers Grimm Fairytales might be an appropriate search term. player Jain search  Rumpelstiltskin - Grimm Brothers and retrieve image 2 of 8

Two new pages up at Alices Evidence, [pg 34] [pg 36] with details about a good guyPaul O'Donoghue.

Another riddle from good guyAlice. From this riddle they work out the good guyKaren is in Dundalk, somewhere near a train tracks - probably near Stapleton Place or Georges Quay.  They email good guyMax with this information.

New pages up on Alices Evidence [pg 37] [pg 38]  which provide more information on good guyPaul.

Meanwhile playerineffabelle emails bad guyGeorge pretending to be bad guyBruce.  Although she does not receive a response directly they notice that another email from bad guyGeorge is now in bad guyBruce's inbox asking him about the email.

Another email from bad guyRyan Marcartal is also in the inbox instructing bad guyBruce to wrap up operations in Dundalk ASAP.

Further correspondence from good guyMax also indicates that players should contact good guyPaul as he is a key character.

A new post appears on Aftermath from good guyPalamedes. playerGlyni translates the code. They notice that Palamedes also posted a number of maps[1] [2] [3] [4] [5].  Players are confused. player Jain emails good guyPalamedes and gets a cryptic response. They work out that they might have to ask for Alice in one of the locations but never follow through.

playertheyeti receives a new message from good guyMax telling them that he is going to look for good guyKaren around the railway tracks in Dundalk and that good guyPaul is very important.

playerGlyni also receives an email from good guyLeah Marks at Identicryption telling them that the company is shutting down.
