You should be able to upload the files to the EDOC Wiki (someone smack me if I'm wrong).

As for which ones also have typewriter bits in them... "facade" maybe? My notes aren't that specific and I can't watch the videos at work Razz

Woot. I got a new one:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Better to burn out than to fade away


From the Flame shirt.

Could I make a plea for those of us who are puzzle-phobic and can't read codes off of really tiny pictures of shirts but still really interested in where these "solves" come from, for a little more detail in the solve post? e.g. what shirt, what code, where'd it come from, if there's a video currently, etc etc?

I'd like, wet my pants with joy if that happened.

Thanks Smile

For Scrappy, 'cause she's cute:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Flame has a modified pig pen cipher in the center. Uses three 3x3 grids of letters; the 27th spot is a space.

Grids are:

[dot grid]
__A__
_B_C_
D_E_F
_G_H_
__I__

[cross grid]
__J__
_K_L_
M_N_O
_P_Q_
__R__

[no symbol grid]
__S__
_T_U_
V_W_X
_Y_Z_
__[]__ where [] is a space

Using that, the center bit reads "better to burn out". I tried that, puzzled over why it wasn't working, then [today] thought to complete the saying. "Better to burn out than to fade away", indeed.

The Phoenix shirt:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Using the same modified pigpen from Flame and zooming in, you can see that the area up and to the right of the left phoenix's head reads: "DOUBLE". I figured the opposite phoenix had the same thing going, and tried a couple of phrases: "double vision", "double fantasy"... but no. I squinted at the right-side code and kind of saw a EAL in the middle.

What do you know? The phrase is "DOUBLE DEALER".

The Framed shirt:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The circles on the back are the same as from the Druggy shirt. These read "NARC". This unlocks the clip of same name.

Ok, I cheated. I was checking out the new press links on EDOClaundry.com, and uh, found a solve for a tshirt we didn't have already Razz (i'm exceptionally good at reading really tiny type of a scanned magazine image)

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
From the men's collection "Song Bird"; solve comes from the Print Magazine article from Mar/Apr 2006. Apparently there's some hypertext on the tshirt adorned with zigzag stiching that spells out DEIFIED. Video is there, cha ching


I'm now going over to my corner, excited about more story, but feeling a little cheap Razz

(Totally recommend the press section of the site btw... some very interesting reading... glow in the dark ink, braille, get kids voting, etc. Absolutely fascinating.)

Well, dang.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
While it was too easy to yield a real movie, the flower on De-Flower reads "I heart U not", not "I'm not" as was previously thought.

Another solve, this time it's for Urban Audio:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The "sound wave" on the back has a guide on the side with somewhere between 16 and 26 dots, depending on how crisp the picture is. If you match up the dots with the points in the wave, you get FLY ON ALEX, which opens up a clip of Adam and Lyn. This one also has the typewriting in it, but it's strange: It's only when Lyn is talking. It's like the typewriter is masking her voice or something? And who the heck is Alex?

found?

Okay I dont know how much of a trout this is but I looked at the wiki site that homeboy munsy put up, and I didnt see the answer...

I am not sure if this is corralated to the trust shirt or not but I found myself kinda staring at it... I entered out of many one and so on. Then I just typed freedom. It pulled a movie I am not sure if trust is the right shirt or not but hey just dinking around and pulling stuff out your ass actually paid off for me...

Urban Roots

The Urban Roots shirt has the bull symbol on it and on the inside, of the shirt, toward the top front has the phrase "I was born on the bicentennial? July 4, 1976. Fireworks everywhere to celebrate the *** child."
The *** is just a place holder because I cannot read clearly because it is printed on a seam and unclear what it says, but I think it says "boy".

The clue on the inside is like the tree root with the vector arrows on the outside, except that it has a middle vector pointed upward. The left vector points to the word "Nothing" the middle vector points to "To" and the right vector points to "Hide".

If you were to draw the representive length vector on the image on the front it would middle of the of the building near the top window on the right.

I accquired my two shirts, Urban Roots and Urban Audio, at Bent on 1011 Mission St, South Pasadena, CA.

If you have the Urban Roots shirt, mind investigating something for me?



It looks like those powerlines would say something if viewed at an angle. I can't tell from the picture online, but...

Let me know if I've been straining my eyes for nothing.

I think it is a some sort of line power or phone it seems to be following the right kind of curve to be one.

Actually that graphic that you are using is sharp as my shirt.

So it doesn't say anything if you view it at a sharp angle?
