Quote:A cryptic message stuck inside a faulty LUMAR relay buoy extracted by FST Evans CORRUPT DATA message is corrupt and only partial reconstruction was possible. Broken imagery show a close-up of AM Engineer Imogen Reed in a ductile suit trying to communicate. The message supposedly originated at Upsilon and was briefly broadcast on multiple frequencies.

The meaning of the message is still unknown CORRUPT DATA considered controversial as Imogen Reed has been missing for weeks and had already been declared dead.

Huh

Yeah,

Spoiler below!

her death has been hinted at before:

I suppose this could be meaningless, and the letters can be arranged in basically any order to form something that makes sense, but somehow...

Pretty sure this is the pulsing light in the first screenshot on http://somagame.com. It wasn't there before, was it?

Edit: Ohh nice, there's a whole new ARG waiting for us. Smile Hint: click on the light.

"admin" is a valid username for the login command but we also need the password. Anyone found a valid combination for pinfo?

I thought "defacto" would work as stated in the root.txt
I was wrong. ._.

EDIT: Searching for "defacto" yielded this:

De facto (/dɨ ˈfæktoʊ/, /deɪ-/, Latin: [deː ˈfaktoː]) is a Latin expression that means "in fact, in reality, in actual existence, force, or possession, as a matter of fact" (literally "from fact").

Might be interesting.

The password is "whatisalpha" as I've found earlier. Great job guys! I'm so excited!!!
