New post is up on the tumblr

Quote:
The information found within his recording does not seem to be much different from what I remember. The Operative aboard the "Gray Ghost," heading towards London is precisely what happened as I recall.

On the other hand, I do not recognize the written journal entry or the painting.


Not sure how much of use this would be however.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The "Gray Ghost" was the nick name of the Queen Mary after she was painted Gray for use in military transport.

She is docked at Long Beach california, which I if I remember isnt too far from Los Angeles. Perhaps future site of a drop?



Edit to add: BTW Anyone with the ability to record phone calls... have you tried calling the number again and seeing if we get a new location?

It sounds like there's an address in the recording (sounds like 72 Grosvenor Street, London, but its an American voice saying a British place name which generally leads to hilarity and lost tourists). Google maps isn't helping much (the street view is from the jubilee celebrations in 2012, which is actually kinda awesome).

i think thats exactly what the recording is talking about. after doing some research on the "grey ghost" his comments about the ship seem to fit.

I guess i was too slow typing this lol but yeah i was wondering about that address too.

I dont know if im just digging too deep here but..

We have a new phone message, and this one is quite long and sounds like it gives some sort of substitution code key in it.

There is also noises in the background as well as music.

I have been trying to make out as much as I can but I'm at work right now. This is the best I have so far but I'll keep at it on my breaks during the day to see if I can clean up the recording a bit (just recorded it off speakerphone on my laptop, not really the best quality)

I've been trying to find an app that would record the call off my cellphone but have had no luck at all thus far.

I tried recording it myself but the quality isn't good enough to really make out. anyone have any idea what she says before she starts listing things?

Pretty sure she lists the fragment code from seattle and then congratulates us for finding it

It sounds like she says

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the fragment code (what ever the code was) was uploaded by (cant hear) and others.


Then I think she said something before going into the list.

Working on a transcription, but I'm 99% sure it's "Fragment LXT4C discovered."

I'm actually doubting the thanking part (I thought it said "great work" at first too).

To me it sounds like she is saying "31, 36, another ?something bob?"


scratch that, that recording is waaaaaaayyyyyyy nicer then mine was and it's definitely "thank you operatives"

Thanks enaxor! This helps a lot
