So nobody here knows the UN/PW for Audition or the significance of June 6 and it's countdown yet?

Oh, and yes, I'm new here, though I've read every page and am stuck at the Audition, Death of a Travelling Salesman prompt. And I got into the Terrible Secret. It made my eyes burn.

Ive been trying to figure out the "Audition, Death of a Travelling Salesman" prompt for a while too. Seems like we're both stuck on it. But as previously mentioned, Xaero gives the exact info for the username and the password. Author_Travelling Salesman.

us on the TINP forum are now discussing the clues given inside the sixth light as we have solved the audition TS prompt. as crazy said the format for the unpw is just about as obvious as possible given the rest of the information on this forum. i think its the only one that ISNT mentioned on this forum too.

june 6 was a big let down

we're stuck on the section that the audition unpw leads to. one word in a barcode to solve and some other codes which are most likely vigenere.

In the page with the wall, "translate" the line of numbers in the source code to get "what comes after we tire of chasing wild sheep?", A wild sheep chase is a book, and together with "Dance, Dance, Dance" (From where the "you know where to find us" thing came out) from the same author, seem to be important in the page.
So, in one of the books, a cat named Kipper died in May.

What about "Frankenstein now, Yuki's Bird"? You all know that one, right?

Where's the "2 Fathoms" one?

Err.... and where's the unknown Frankenstein one?

"2 Fathoms" is the fake forums, used for a while to help keep new forum traffic to a minimum. Don't worry too much about it, unless you want to see several Samuel Clemens quotes.

As far as I know, everyone who's been following this thread along for more than a month or so knows all current passwords, including Frankenstein now/Yuki's Bird (which is the unknown Frankenstein one). The 'site map' two posts above me, while it includes passwords, is out of date by two 'lights' pages. Check the bottom of page 47 and the top of 48 for a more recent map (though mine doesn't include un/pw's).

Kagen, any more luck with that barcode? I've been trying to go the other direction: rather than find one letter at a time, I've been trying to find a word that will fit ("does a Vigenere", "does a suicide", etc.)

no luck as of yet. im probably wrong but it looks like there might be a double letter in the word. this is only a guess so dont base your whole train of thought around this

Alright. Does anyone know what the writing in the window of ShovelThatGoodSnow says?
And who is that in the page source and what does it say above him? Try highlighting the portrait, by the way.

The portrait is of Blaise de Vigenčre, and originally from this Wikipedia article. The line of text above him is encoded, most likely in a Vigenčre code (info on this is at the same link).

The text in the window says "Ml6 8vk8lzxsv7 6l GDJ yl FJ," and translates to "Not reproaches to 639 by 59." 'Not reproaches', we've found, anagrams to 'Another corpse'; what the 'to 639 by 59' means is still up for guesses. A suggested possibility is that it's a coordinate spot on an image; someone else found it in Google describing the max size of several forums' sig images.
