Also if it is a math problem maybe the (Keep This In Mind) next to the Which Side are You On Video would mean those #s are needed to complete it. Maybe the #s that were dialed as the passcode? Or something else from that video?

Could it be sides of a fraction? Could the set up of the fractions for 10/20 also indicate that we're finishing a math problem here? I have never played an ARG before and really have no clue what I'm doing these have all just been thoughts in my head. Thanks for obliging me and putting it together though.
I think we found the meaning of the fractions already. They reduce down to 1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, 5/5

which of course means video 1 of 5, video 2 of 5, etc - the order the videos should be watched.

Am I missing your point?

Lilin = the children of Lilith and Samael (Samael = in some religions Satan.) They're also considered succubi, which can be thought of as vampires that don't suck blood.

The only thing that matches up to 78:49 is Psalms 78:49 which is :

He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.

EDIT : Spelling.

Yes that makes sense now.

She sent this to Romance: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v475/ ... aphid1.jpg

She wants us to figure out the acronym that has been right infront of us.

Maybe.
"Death, in the strict sense, cannot be defined, for whatever predicate we, the living, attribute to it necessarily belongs to Life. This means that Death, as a category, behaves in a manner indistinguishable from the Infinite, and from God."

Hmm...

OpAphid did post this comment to Daniel's latest video:

We have friends as well, Daniel.

In fact, we have so many friends that... let's just say you can rest assured that we are always close by.

No matter the location, isn't it nice to have friends in the area that can accommodate your needs?


I wonder if there is a connection with the "evil angels sent among them"[/i]

I think it just all means that Op = Denderah and they're basically setting up for a fight between them and Daniel and whoever Daniel recruits. And Op is saying we should pick sides now.

I think if the puzzle were about figuring out the APHID acronym it would be spelled out more. Seems odd that would the main puzzle and it was sent in a private message.

OpAphid seems to use the same words a lot in the profile updates to steer us. Fraction got used for days before we picked up on it.

Yes. It says something but I forget... lol

HERE IT IS :

"Thou shalt not be a victim, thou shalt not be a perpetrator, and most of all, thou shalt not be a bystander."

It's a quote from a Holocaust Museum in D.C.
