What hides between Shadow and Light?

http://www.nextfrictionalgame.com/
Anyone have any luck with this new code?

Spoiler below!

First couple sentences are simple word by word anagrams:

These hole digging critters have a population that increase rapidly.
There must be some way to track this development and make the infestation come to an end.

The rest is a mystery to me.

Oddly enough the phrase "Silently evil emerged darkness" is an anagram for "Marketers endlessly inveigled" but I think maybe that's just a coincidence..

Well, it sounds like its a worm or a maggot or a leech or something. Then again, it also sounds like a rabbit.

Something tells me that its a 'critter' that we only see durning Sun set.

I'll try to use this for solving the "code"

EDIT: No luck, though.. Sad

RE: What hides between Shadow and Light?

I've altredy posted this in another thread, but I'll copy&paste here because this thread is more specific:

I decoded the first part and it is just an anagram:

"These hole digging critters have a population that increase rapidly. There must be a way to track this development and make the infestation come to an end."

Then I organized the first row numbers this way:
3, 9, 7,
4, 8, 9,
5, 7, 11,
6, 6, 13,
7,

Read them in column: the first is the preceding +1; the second is the preceding -1; the second is the preceding +2.
Is this the series we have to put an end to?

Not sure about the remaining lines.

What do you think?

RE: What hides between Shadow and Light?

This morning I've found another thing: in the first row of scrambled letters there are 81 letters, and in the second row there are 36 letters.
Now 81=9x9 and 36=6x6.
Isn't it strange? We can build two square of letters (I built them horizontal, but maybe it can also be vertical) like these:

YNGPPUZFV
KJZIDSTCW
IZVYIDFYV
QOPSBAVJU
IUNJVPLIF
RMHMZQDFA
BMNWMMLRY
SWAQAZRSX
QEDMJWHSG


and

VJBSFJ
VTCSVV
CPFIMG
MUNSOC
OQGRRJ
UCAVIS


if you look to wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transposition_cipher or this site http://www.exploratorium.edu/ronh/secret/secret.html you'll se similar letter boxes.

may be that the first numbers(3, 9, 7, 4, 8, 9, 5, 7, 11, 6, 6, 13, 7, ) are connected to the first box, and the other (8, 6, 9, 6, 11, 8, 13,) to the second?
Still can't figure out other things... I'm need help!!! Big Grin

RE: What hides between Shadow and Light?

I've just something which help...

[spoiler]

When watching the teaser, I noticed the word "Unknown" suddenly flashed. I thought I saw a word. So I tried to pause it when the flash happens. It took me a long time, but I managed it. And this is what I found.

The word Fibonacci.


I wonder if it has anything to do with the numbers? I mean, the developers could've just put it there for fun. But using "Fibonacci Sequence" could be the answer. To the numbers, anyway.

Hope this helps.

If you are dying and walking towards the light, please stop. Your entering my house.

RE: What hides between Shadow and Light?

propably not so important, but i figured maybe some hint

when you type anyting and it show you another page telling you are wrong, there are some hide words in the source code

of Pisa
The primeary casuse


TheLight may have right about this Fibonacci. Fibonacci is connected to the of Pisa as is the city where he born.....
