Pneumatic Needle, Final Riddle
Another text message from our new contact:
After poking around Hana's files I found this hidden page. Check out the link. http://www.samantha48616e61.com/needle.shtml
This leads us to an animated 360-degree view of the pneumatic needle gun, available for download. You may recall that Hana showed us a couple of still images of this in her blog last February (see post).
Our mysterious friend has also sent out a new e-mail, with the subject "Final Riddle":
Check this page I found out...Has our mystery informant been revealed?

AN
TE
IE

AT best the name has 7 letters, but most likely has 5.
does this help at all or have i totally lost it?
two letters within "one word", three letters apart
The answer is the letter "O"
ADGDO
I see ad dog and da God but somehow I don't think thats it.
Can someone come up with a code?
could it be DAKO or DAJO which still makes no sense to me.
first clue:In 1748, he retires from printing and creates numerous business partnerships, he was born in 1706. 1748-1706= 42
minus 1 is 41
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
the first letter could be "P"
if you go through the alphabet letter by letter 41 times or
"DA"
Clue #2
Kensei loved 12 times
Chapter 66 of the graphic novels
10 brides, the newest one and his Yumi
12th letter is L
Conclusion:
DALO
or PLO
or DAABO
OR!!!
41 to the right
12 to the left
O
as a password to something we haven't found yet?
worth a shot
41=DA
12=L
2 letters 3 apart=CE
DALCE?
1)1+7+4+7= 19= S
2)Kensei's Love= 10= J
3)2 letters 3 apart using
Pneumatic needle = NA
4)2 letters within "one word", 3 letters apart= O
Its a stretch but the letters
Sanjog are beginning to appear
Anyone agree with me that its the dreamer kid, hence the poor spelling, like a foreigner and all the dream study info PLUS hi showing up in more graphic novels?!?
On the needle page, the "Privacy Policy" link is spelled wrong. It is spelled "Privacy Pollicy". There is an extra "L".
I and two letters within one word... maybe that "L"?
three letters apart...
I'm thinking there has to be a reason for the extra "L". So three letters apart from the first "L" would be "Y". the second "L" doesn't have a letter in the word which is three apart.
"L" and "Y"
That's my two cents.
maybe their initials are PS because of:
relationshiP
pSyche
just a thought...
Sanjog is a good idea. But how would he have access to Hana's stuff?
could "two letters within "one word", three letters apart"
actually be OR?
DENORW are the letters in one word, and the only one that is three letters from the other is OR.
D
I forgot to say, what about that missing 'o' from the text. Maybe it's inclusion in the e-mail was a typo.
I'm going to skip the research and extremely wildly guess it's Sapan Gowda. It's the only one I found with S and P, the only letters I'm sure are in there.
"postings of new dream submissions have been added to the activating evolutions dream study site at http://blog.activatingevolution.org/dreamstudy/. sapan appears to be adding submissions more frequently now, collecting data for his studies on dreams and their relationshiP to the human pSyche."
Sapan is the man running the research, i researched it after anonymous typed it in and if you look at relationshiP and pSyche
the two letters are P and S
I think your definitely right, its sapan
Rachel -
You are referring to the e-mail and dreams from March 10th/11th, right? Or are there newer ones? I don't see any other new ones at the Dream Study site, but want to make sure that I'm not missing them.
I just find it odd that Sapan would refer to himself in the third person... though I'm not sure who else it could be.
Who's Sapan?
My hunch is that the PS were meant to be taken as clues and may not even be in the person's name at all.
With that said, PS could be PostScript. That would be the most obvious answer if this is the case.
In addition to that, the number clues were 41 and 1 (or 411, which is slang for "information"). I highly doubt that the numbers represented letters of the alphabet.
I'm not ruling Sapan out. However, I just think it is strange for him to refer to himself in the third person and also have access to Hana's blog ANd know about the whole Hana/Drucker thing.
We must rememeber that the Characters do NOT read the GN's as they shouldn't exsist in their world. The GN's are just another way for us fans to get more of the story.
My guesses are HRG, Matt Parkman or Matt Neuenberg (who may been "uploaded" into the company mainframe thus taking on a form like that of Hana).
wait, what if we turn the numbers into ach, I forget what's it called. basically,
411=ALL
I don't remember the name, but it came up in Find 815. Can we turn the numbers into this? (or the letters into numbers into this?)
BTW: The reason why the answer to "How many times does Kensei love?" is 1 is because, like I said before, the characters do not read the GN's. You need to get your information from someplace within the heroes universe. In this case, from the Yamagato Fellowship website.
Madammina - you are thinking of Leet speak, sometimes called L337. Anyway, I think you might be on to something. Glad to see there's another who followed 815 here too!
Well, now we have to figure out the numbers. And I really don't know Leet.
What 815 blog did you follow? I stayed as madammina on UFO's
I followed Dark UFO's too, tho I was more or less a lurker, and didn't post much. I have to say that was a great web puzzle, and it's funny how this one and the Lost one tends to alternate in being active. Anyway, if you want to know more l337 speak, here's a link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet
Tho the cool think is that you can make stuff up. I mean your name could be /\/\@|]@/\/\/\/\1/\/@ .
I was a lurker too. I only participated in the chats.
* 0 can be used for O
* 1 can be used for I or L
* 2 can be used for Ä, Z or R
* 3 can be used for E
* 4 can be used for A
* 5 can be used for S
* 6 can be used for B or G
* 7 can be used for T or L
* 8 can be used for B
* 9 can be used for G or P
* £ can be used for L or E
Let's get cracking!
I am just about 100% sure l33t speak has nothing to do with this. If it does, I'll be completely shocked.
the only possible thing it could be used for would be 411 being "All", as you stated befor). However, 411 is more common in emails and texting as another way of saying "information". In fact, of all the times I've seen and used l33t speak myself, I've only seen someone use 411 as "All" only once and that was 6 years ago.
I got PS, 42(so db?), 12(ab?), re(the spelling mistakes in the dream research email), and ow, no, er, or wd ("one word", going through the letters 3 letters apart, without looping). I guess the last part could be "abreno" or just "reno" but that doesn't make much sense, unless it's the end of the name.
I'm really confused.
Anonymous, the number answers are 41 and 1. You need to get your information from the yamagato fellowship site, not the GN's
onE worD
ed?
if you go to the page with the needle look at the phrase "Privacy Policy" and you will see that Policy is spelled wrong
I have a question:
shouldn't the first letters of "Activating Evolution Dream Study" be capitalized??? it's not in the emails.
don't know if it means anything but that could mean that we have 4 more letters to work with: a e d s
First spelling mistakes:SPS
2nd spelling mistakes:ER
3rd (from the one word riddle):ew
The missing letter from the link:o
in Privacy Pollicy:L
run those thru an anagram generator and you get POWERLESS
Really crazy idea but what if its this Brian fellow...one thing is, it's one week after we received the first email and Brian is in the next graphic novel. that one is not so convincing but...
if you go to the website that is on the last page of the new GN and read Brian's latest post (posted today!) he says in the blog that he is blaming Hana for everything that has happened to him. I'm mean he is really good at computers and could have found her contacts list.
what do you think??
actually nevermind...doesn't make sense now...sorry
anon, that sounds pretty tantalizing, considering that Powerless is the title of the last season 2 episode. http://heroeswiki.com/Powerless
I know that in-game characters shouldn't know there's a "show" to speak of - but perhaps this has something to do with it anyway?
*sigh* We seem to be having trouble coming to a concensus here. There are too many false leads. We're not leading out some of the clearly incorrect guesses, which is sending us on a wild goose chase. I blame the GM! :)
