Stage Five

This is the current stage in the game!

Stage Five

For those who need to find the link to the forums, here it is for stage five.

Players were given the clues to find the physical and digital Keys before anyone had defeated the stage four guardian.

The Day before this stage started, http://www.Takebackhollywood.com updated with talk about a Big Benefit in August.

Task 1: Through The Eyes Of The Beholder:Part Two "VERA"

On July 23rd: thehost told us Stage Five had begun.

Key of Binding

This is the first of the 12 Keys players needed to find before the 6th and final contract can be had.

Twelve locks, twelve keys

The Binding Puzzle

SOTM updated their site stating that the First key would be in Boston, during ARGFest '08.

On July 19th, players noticed that inside their registration packet there was a pamphlet that said to go to http:www.whatisthisgame.com/boston , a page that's title reads "I have what you're looking for", and shows a picture of thehost. Under the picture, is says FIND ME.

Players in Boston found him on July 19th!! Each player was given a golden key with his/her name on it, by telling the host their in game name!!
When they returned to their hotels, they each had a package waiting with a JoinMyLegacy T-shirt, business card with a web page link, and a CD containing a new movie.

The Binding Solution

2 days later, thehost told us this:

My employer has granted me permission to give you the clue to the first key's location.

thetiethatbinds

this pointed to the page:

http://www.whatisthisgame.com/thetiethatbinds

here we were treated to a new puzzle and link:

Congratulations, you have found the first key.

Don't get too full of yourself because the others have had a 48 hour head start. It goes without saying that you should keep what you know to yourself. All of the remaining keys can be found in the digital world, and I have left you the necessary clues to find them. I'd get to work because you have some catching up to do.

An Evil Wild Mire

Magnet0 realized that "An Evil Wild Mire" was an anagram of:

William R. DeVine

The Mirror Key

This is the current key…
the last puzzle gave us a link to http://www.yekrorrimeht.joinmylegacy.com

The Mirror Puzzle

the new Join My Legacy webpage simply reads:

YYJW LCPG CPMXPXPC PCPS PYSJYL DPZO

The Mirror Solution

being the Mirror Key, the puzzle needed to be reversed, and then ROTed to read:

Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?

These are the lyrics to Pink Floyd's "VERA" (the wall)
this clue leads us to a new page:

http://www.whatisthisgame.com/vera.html

This page contains the new video "Through the eyes of the beholder: part two"
*However, this is not the location of The Mirror Key.


The players who were present for ARGfest '08 then told us wich film they were given 2 days ago.;)

paradox noticed on 8/7/08, that Will Findem's 8/6/08 article had a link pointing us to http://www.yekrorrimeht.joinmylegacy.com/nnlyarev
it reads:

Magnet0 noticed the whole paged was mirrored to read:

Darkhuman anagramed

into

Christina Sweeny

On 7/23 Alex Wynn returned after three weeks "Vacation"… to apologize for even covering the Mister Willson events, and to shockingly say:

No person should get in the way of Mister Willson or you will pay a heavy price. We are not dealing with a human being anymore. The person responsible for doing this…

died two years ago Friday.

Alex Wynn

TDS Puzzle

On July 24th, The Daily Stalker updated with a new weekly puzzle:

TDS Solution

Darkhuman solved this puzzle first:

Four Arrogant snobs begging to die

Task 2: Took For Granted

One July 28th, Mister Willson updated Join My Legacy with a new video titled "Took For Granted"

Darkhuman was the first player to find this video, but Greystone was given the video in Boston for winning the 3rd Challange.
This video shows Mister Willson abducting Grant Meyers.

The Puzzle

On July 29th, TDS updated with a new puzzle:

The Solution

Hangman is believed to be the first to solve it.

Three nosey reporters with nothing to do
one found a ticket out
wouldn't want to be the last two

The Daily Stalker didn't like the solution for this puzzle, so we were told they would not.

On 8/07, Alex Wynn left a strange TDS post:

Mekdahl cracked this one first:

I know that he is coming for me and I am ready. If he takes me I will no longer be able to assist you and you will truly be alone. In case I am taken I leave you with My most important piece of information that I have attained. MF equals Merits Films

On 8/12, Chandler Overholt died in a motorcycle crash in London at the age of 27.

On 8/14, Mister Willson kidnapped Alex Wynn of TDS.

Following that, Will Findem was so mad he solved the last Puzzle they did not want to print:

Two Scared Rabbits Running In Fear
The Fox Caught One
For the One remaining, The End Is Near

The Jester's Key

This is the current key…

The Puzzle

the last key told us that Cubby has an aristocrats performance on the internet.

Darkhuman found it at: http://www.whatisthisgame.com/aristocrats/
This is only the audio for this classic joke. However, he does speak of a "KEY" in his performance.

The Solution

Magnet0 found the key at:
http://www.whatisthisgame.com/aristocrats/shovesitrightupthedogsass

This page simply reads:

Buck IlK Save Boy

Darkhuman translated this to:

Cubby Kovaleski

The Puppet's Key

The Examiner's Key
