I think the solution is converting some phrase to number as the password (abc = 2, def = 3, etc). I tried Halos (42567#) and got a “password incorrect”, but putting in Halo (4256#), Pizza (74992#), and benalohpaillier (236256472455437#) it said “goodbye” and immediately disconnected every time I tried them. There’s more I want to test and will update if anything is successful, but judging the disconnect from hot keywords to the ARG means it’s most definitely connected and I’m on the right idea.
Ignore this post I think it’s incorrect with my theory of “Password Incorrect” and “Goodbye”, but I do think we should convert phrases to numbers on a phone keyboard and try them.
Why didn’t you try HALOS?
Also, “Lie” keeps coming up… Try that as well.
About that postal address, i found that myself a few days ago.
Apparently there is a land form there called black mesa nearby.
LANL is about 16.68 miles or 27.14 km away from Cochiti, NM which is mentioned in the kxbm article.
I don’t know if this of any importance or not.
anyone tried the numbers from the
“these are some important numbers” ???
I did both and found out it was just on a timer so ignore previous post, I’m just slow at typing in numbers. Ones that said goodbye before would say password incorrect if I typed them in faster. 
Besides that, I tried “drhorn,” “horn,” password to halos area on Storm’s website, “lie,” “lies,” 'congratulationyouwonthepizza," and “thepizzaisalie” with no dice at all.
Try it out.
I’ll try some more stuff when I get home from school tomorrow or at lunch, but for now it’s bedtime for me. I decide to check for once in forever and all this has happened it’s gotten me too excited haha. [/size]
so I can now hear the audio clip with the *21, the clip played is also at the end of the bmrf promo video that plays on the steam store isn’t it?

Has this been considered?
Whoops, I used “congratulations.” 1 am typing on my phone is not when I’m at my best.
I’ll try some more stuff and go back over previous content to see if I can find anything else. I’ll update you all with any passwords I try or the likes later tonight.
I edited the post to show the correction in the table.
Ive just tried the “Star Trek” Brothers Password with no luck. Changed the Tango/Charlie to Numbers (T=8 C=2) wondering if maybe they would be just the letter or the full word converted?

Might be a good idea, probably what I would’ve done in the first place honestly.
Also, if this is linked with DalSystems, maybe we should check over the textures for any devices DalSystems related?
EDIT: After checking SteamDB, it seems the game just updated! I’m reinstalling right now, but can someone who already had it installed please confirm they received a update on the game on Steam?
EDIT 2: Noticed it was just the Developer Branch that updated, and has been the past few days a lot maybe something is getting prepared? just random speculations
Jesus, this thing is still going?
…{Primary Servers Overloaded}… USER ACTIVATION REQUIRED… PASSCODE INPUT FOR SITE ACTIVATION REQUIRED…
Maybe Skype password will activate ^^, which would mean we should focus our search for HALOS-related password. Just a thought
anyone tried variations of ez as pie?
This has nothing to do with what is going on right now, just looking things up, I thought this was a pretty epic coincidence and thought it was at least worth a “neato” Looking up Storms old ip address, for thestormseeker.com I get this, 66.49.198.77, now looking that up via viewdns.info it gives a few names and emails, one portion says owned by some guys name, at this address,
106 trafalgar road
greenwich
owner-zip: se10 9uw
owner-country: GB
when you punch that into google maps, this is what comes back

its a small place called MILANOS PIZZA AND FRIED CHICKEN. crazy right?
What if this ARG is just an elaborate way of Stormseeker announcing his addiction to pizza?
Something a bit random but i noticed that the scanner at the end of questionable ethics looks a bit like HAL 9000 but i do not know if it means anything.

is there anyway to view the whiteboards with a clear resolution, when I look at them closely, I cant read half of the text. help?
So take a look, what do you think? In game, there are a couple of places that shows a cpu frequency of 2800mhz and below that there is 1024 memory. So reading up on things that operate at 2800mhz, I found this, it shows some radio info, take a look at the numbers, then I remembered the old KXBM new article, it showed on the right hand side some classified adds, there was a radio that played some morse code I think when clicked on, but the images as a whole I don’t think were ever really focused on. I mentioned this a while ago, but didn’t really follow up on it. if you look at them from top to bottom. we have
FOCUS, RADIO, KEY, MEASUREMENT. So I started reading into how to solve for signal to noise ratios. One of the options was looking at a chromatograph, and I remembered there are 2 things in the game that are only found in one place, and you don’t see it anywhere else, One is a walkie talkie with an adjustable frequency, RIGHT next to a printer printing info out, that looks an awful lot like info you could get off a chromatgraph. I have taken several screens, ill splice em all together, in the order I took them, what do you guys think? so what if we needed to just find the signal to noise ratio and drop the noise from the 752? Then decode it that way? anyone knowledgeable in this type of stuff?
