There seems to be a lot of confusion about what has been found with the package of the actual release and what hasn't. As the owner of the first post is not updating - here is my summary to try and help clear things up:

The Booklet

1. On the front cover at the top left, lettering spells out 'THE MAILSTROM' - this leads to the site http://www.themailstrom.com where the wreckage/shard combinations are entered to find emails.

2. The red letters in the text of the pages (and 2 zeroes) give hexadecimal pairs that correspond to ascii codes to spell out another Wreckage/shard combination.

From page 5:

3. For the number strings hidden in the static - Each string makes a letter by tracing the movements you make when you move your finger from one number to the next on a telephone keypad (not a keyboard numberpad - the numbers are in a different order).
From page 9:


4. The text around Jesus on the God Given page has also been figured out here.

5. The strange white bars on the Meet Your Master page have been solved in a separate thread - they lead to http://www.viabilityindex.net

The CD Package

6. And yes, the writing on the gun has been noticed too. It's a wreckage/shard combination also: http://www.themailstrom.com/scorpion_4rtl21.htm

The CD Itself

7. The zeroes and ones on the CD are binary - like for the hex codes above, they correspond to ASCII Codes so that once converted (explained here) yields the site http://exterminal.net

I know some of you out there got the CD early thanks to Insound attempting to make up for the BYIT fiasco, but could we please give it a rest till Tuesday? If you want to try and figure it out on your own, fine. But I'd rather not have this place turn into spoiler city.

Spoiler

On the first view:


4. Capital G: to the left we have a lot of dots... could be a code.

Did you look on gracetheteacher and exterminal? I suppose. This was spoilering,too and noone did say something against it.

Please stop making topics like this. There are some of us who would like ONE surprise when the album comes out, when we go buy it. The mods agree, lets wait on this until the release date please.

please stop reading them!


reminds me of people that say "fast food makes me fat"

no, you eating fast food makes you fat.

just like you reading a spoiler thread ruins for you.

No, I'm not retarded [edit], I didn't read about it, I just skipped over it to ask you politely to stop making threads like this til release day like the mods have already requested. And then I get attacked.

Its easier for people to complain and tell you to stop posting "spoilers"....

.....then it is for them to have a little self control and NOT enter the thread and read. Especialy when the word "SPOILER(S)" is written in caps in the title......
