Second card found

A while ago I wrote about the message Pasi Liisola sent me. There was another card hidden in the library that is shown in Pasi's photos. Apparently Richard got hold of the card somehow, or at least he has a picture of it in his computer.

I got a nice little video camera on my last birthday and finally I put it to good use. Yesterday I hid it to Richard's office when he had already left work. I pointed it to his keyboard from above. Today I sneaked in and took back the camera. I couldn't believe my eyes when I actually could recognize his full password from the video! Anyway, went back there today on his lunch break and was able to download this picture. Now, any ideas what are those holes about?

Another email from Pasi

I just received another email from Pasi! Like we guessed, we need more info in order to find out the meaning of the card that was already found. This email is even more puzzling and it doesn't have any direct coordinates where to look. Therefore, I post the pictures Pasi sent me hoping that someone would have an idea where it could be.

Can anyone get the hidden thing based on Pasi's email? We should get a hold of it as soon as possible so that it doesn't end up in wrong hands...

EDIT: The card has been found.

Here is Pasi's email:

Hi Beth!

Since my last email, I've been going through my notes and I think I found something! I remember hiding one part of the coded word in a library and I found these photos from my album (Luckily I was an enthusiastic photographer at the time). As you know, it's crucial to get that piece of information. Hopefully these images are helpful enough!

Interesting book. Especially the pages 212-213.

Saw this nice building just next to the library.

Yours Sincerely,
Pasi Liisola

Letter from the past

Two days ago I wrote about an email I got from Pasi Liisola. Now I'm really thrilled, because the message Pasi was talking about has been discovered! Apparently it was in a bottle that was tied to a tree in the location (in Finland) where the coordinates pointed.

In the bottle there was a letter from Pasi, dated 7.6.1967 and a playing card with holes in it. It seems to be that some kind of a secret word is coded to the card, but based on the letter, we need more of those cards to find out the word.

Here are pictures of the letter and the playing card. See all the pictures here: photos by GuestUser17

Letter from Pasi Liisola that was found in a bottle in Finland.

A card with holes in it was also found with the letter.

This was a victory for us! We were able to locate the letter and document it, before anyone could destroy it. Thank you to everyone who took part in retrieving it! Let's keep on looking for the other ones...

Surprising email from Pasi Liisola

I'm excited to tell all my blog readers that I have received an email from Pasi Liisola who apparently has been working on this mystery long before us!

However, Pasi warns that we can't let anyone destroy the thing that he has hidden (whatever it is). Therefore, I can't publish the coordinates shown in Pasi's note, before we find out what's in there. Nevertheless, I am willing to share them with the people I can trust.

If you are trustworthy and want to know the coordinates in Pasi's note, send me an email (beth.swillower at gmail.com) or a direct message in Twitter (@BethSwillower)!

(Edit: The message has been found: Letter from the past)

Here is the email I received:

Hi Beth!

I was extremely happy when I found your blog and that some righteous people are finally solving this mystery! If I could jump, I would be jumping with joy right now! You see, you are doing something I tried to do years ago. I had already lost hope and accepted the fact that the world will end up with the horrible LOLCat Apocalypse. Finally there is still a glimpse of light!

Luckily I made a backup plan for situations like this. Unfortunately I can't offer much assistance, but I will go through my personal notes and try to find the places where I hid my messages. Don't let anyone destroy them, so once you find the messages, spread the word as wide as you can! The world needs to be warned about this.

I found one note that says like this:
"In the middle of the trees. Just in case, tied with a string. NXX XX.XXX EXX XX.XXX"

Yours Sincerely,
Pasi Liisola
