48 45 52 52 4f 4f 4d
(Hex for HERROOM)

Doesn't work either.



After thinking about it, it could also be a form of 7 letters translated into hex. I'm seeing a pattern with 11-3 with these hex codes.

48455252444 -> 11 numbers
ffd -> 3 letters

Not just the 14259551770 combination.
Just throwing this out there.

Because it doesn't work.
Oh, nah-- someone asked if Bree said "Ray or Roy" or something like that (when she gave away the ending to the Nancy Drew book in Men are from Mars-- she said, "Raybolt did it") and I didn't notice there was another page, so I responded to it without quoting what I was responding to.

I was also saying I already tried it.

:P

Oooo, gotcha.
;D


Anyhow, scratch my theory up above.
It may still work but only with certain words.
The words herroom really gets to me because it goes along with 11-3, but it doesn't work.

I tried brother and watcher in hex, but..
That proved my earlier theory wrong since no letters were in the hex code.
Something to keep in mind I suppose.

According to the user Marcus who posted a comment on the revver video at lonelygirl15.com, he brings this up:

"There is a Nancy Drew book called The Password to Larkspur Lane…"


The password in that book is "Singing Horses."



I just thought this would be interesting information.

Maybe I am reading too much into it, but the fact that haiku = Ukiah and the letters in the poem can spell out WYATT and the 11-digit drivers license number.. if that has nothing to do with the puzzle, then DAMN that's a coincidence.

I tried translating the drivers license number as hex into text and it didnt give me anything

The "haiku" that Tachyon wrote DEFINITELY has to do with the password in my honest opinion. Along with the ID and the incident where Daniel went missing.. And maybe that's where it all started.

It isn't a coincidence. No bleeping way.

OK so I hate myself, but what if things need to be reversed like Haiku Ukiah?

OMG

Ok when I put 14259551770YOU in, it did something different than before.. instead of just telling me the PW was wrong, a bunch of random code popped up and said the file was corrupt?

Anyone else wanna try 14259551770YOU

Normally it says:

"Encrypted file: CRC failed in /Users/michelle/Desktop/53454d494f54494353.rar (password incorrect ?)
No files to extract"

With that PW it says

"øse0`À„Z“vLi4YõcYd>«.·œ ø ]$+?Œ‚ÆàT>HæÒ'ÜM ÿ϶9ìXƒÿÉÈo™^sÙtûéªûvz?ã«•??ô–~>1Õœ¥Û§7¸*?„I-=Î=5ØPÉο?›#pÀAê?âô?ì}?¡Î®†ö?ÍûD^çÖ

Encrypted file: CRC failed in /Users/michelle/Desktop/53454d494f54494353.rar (password incorrect ?)

I guess it could be a bug.. but wtf..

Yeah, there's no way all that's a coincidence (kickass job to those of you who got WYATT and the number).

Seriously the fact that I got WYATT and the ID number astounds me because I'm usually a casual LG15 watcher and never participate in OpAPHID or the puzzles... hahaha I am proud of myself.

Thats just an error that winrar kicks out every now and again.

The program won't give you anything to let on that you have a part of the password correct.
