Sorry about the double post, but it was easier than editing the first one again.
New Character:
Hashochet Simon bassi: Maurices bodyguard, gives a text article of a conversation with Maurice. Presumably found from Israili writing on polaroid in Mauric's Profile
Edit- And another one: spider Shows up as lucy brown in title bar of IE, spider where real name normally is. Text file gives a background story, up to age 14. edit- from info in shaylee's profile, spider seems to be a lesbian
Edit- And another!
Shaylee Kingston The prostitute that put lucy in contact with the Bail Bonds company. Text file recounts conversation between her and Spider


Changes to cards:
1. Corazon: new text showing conversation between the suarez family, 2 names at least mentioned, no card from them as of yet.
2. Victor: New text describing disposal of body, with pictures showing car park and hotel where Cigarette is staying, although hotel name not clearly visible.
3. Antony Viet: Recounts conversation with Mark telling antony about how fish00k is ruining his hacking. Antony starts trail to find him.

Ok, finishing there for the night, would apreciate it if someone posts any new developments as they happen

It is hebrew, but without vowels I can't say what it says (my knowledge of hebrew is just enough to get me through a reform bar mitzvah).

The letters, translated to english, are (right to left):

h sh oh t t

This would be pronounces something like h-shote-t, where the dashes are unknown (they could be either vowels or a gutteral stop). The vowels could be:

a as in farm
a as in mate
e as in set
i as in sit
i as in ski
i as in bite
o as in show
u as in boot

A gutteral stop is basically a pause in the word. This is not seen in english, but often shows up in Sci-Fi names as an apostrophie (b'lanna, bat'leth. goa'ould, etc.).

Also, the prefix "ha" at the beginning of a word means and. I'll see if I can get someone with a better knowlegde of hebrew to help out.

Find that bush!

Any thoughts on where that is? Is that a train in the background in front of that parking structure?

Here's the parking lot sign, tweaked a little. Looks like it says:

-NOTICE-

Hotel San Remo is
not responsible for
any loss or damage
to any vehicle or its
contents while parked(?)
in any Hotel San Remo
Parking facility.

Across the street you can see the MGM Grand, so Vic's hat is probably in the Hotel San Remo parking lot.

Intrepid ARGer Konamouse picked up Victor's Panama from the San Remo parking lot tonight. Hopefully she'll post soon with pictures. Smile

Mine was reset to 16,000 (had 7+ K before reset). Konamouse said hers was reset to 16,500 and she had more than 10+K at the time of reset.

Somehow we got bonuses.

Re: [Update] Oct 1: a summary

One unpleasant consequence of today's update: Clues that used to be on the profiles of several major characters (thedealer, andadaughter, preacher, mauricepikar, corazonsuarez, wtf616, anthonyviet, and victorsimkoaldridge) have disappeared. I'd been meaning to type all that stuff into the Wiki, but hadn't gotten around to it yet. Oops.

A couple of them are still accessible through the Trail that thedealer has graciously left for us in the Muck. It's still really, really irritating.

So... The Wiki now has all of the text that still remains. Does anyone happen to have saved any of the stuff from the missing links?

Perhaps they can be retrieved through a cache on someone's machine (I checked mine, but it's already been cleared)...
