 		 could the background noise be
the international news
and your hearing news on AQ Television, war and political news and updates? I would think that they would be following THE PRINCE'S every move.

 		Listen closely...I'm thinking it's a previously recorded televesion broadcast...but the speaker sounds british and talks very fast. Possibly a northerner...but I don't hear a northern accent and and the backgroudn speaker talks too fast to be from the south, but I don't hear any hint of a northern accent, but I do hear a little british O.o?.

0:42 seconds into the recording "The Middle East" is heard in the background

1:10 seconds in the words "Stronger than ever" are heard in the background

1:32 seconds in the words "...Ability to reach out and...way" I couldn't pick out the words between "out and" and "way"

faint traces of words that I'm unsure of is "Attacks" all throughout the recording. About halfway through it the words "Bombing" are heard kinda garbled so I'm not swearing to it.

Sounds like a broadcast about terrorist acitivity in the middle east. I don't have a program to drown out Saul and JC, but it should be very clear to hear once they are out of the way. Also the background noise STARTS 0:18secs in and gradually get louder. Maybe whoever is one the phone is moving closer to the source of the noise, or is adjusting the volume a bit louder?

 		I dont think we can assume that it is a news station but it is definatly linked with the situation, either a previous recording of television or a phone log that Saul or JC is listening to.

 		I'm in, too
(Man, I haven't been around in a while...)

I was emailing with JC yesterday, and here's the latest exchange:

Quote:

Yes, there's a pattern in there somewhere. But no idea what it refers to.

Is one of your people "Netninja42" ?

> Yes, I did. Got it around the same time I got this one.
>
> I'm still looking into the static in that extracted gif. The static seems
> too ordered, know what I mean?
>
> -J
>
>> Justin,
>>
>> Welcome aboard. Did you receive tonight's info drop?



In other words, sounds like there is something else in extracted.gif. I didn't see anything on here about it. Unless I missed something.

And who is netninja42? I haven't replied to JC yet, but will probably write in the next day or so.

For those haven't seen extracted.gif, it's on the RM site.

 		Anybody wanna post up this "Extracted.gif?" it may prove fruitful for everybody to see it if anybody has the file.

 		As interesting as this game is...it's beginning to bore me. JC has yet to reply to my mail, and our theories are getting us nowhere. There's 38 days till the "start" of whatever is gonna happen, and still nobody has any solid idea of what the hell's going on >.<

 		 Symbol Noise Pattern
I've managed to decipher the pattern used in adding noise to the symbol image. The yellow areas stand for white noise, and the purple areas stand for black noise:



(By the way, when will this game be "big" enough to move to the CF With Potential forum? After all, this ain't no rumor anymore.)

 		So...the symbol itself isn't what we are looking for, it's the noise that's integrated with it?

White noise and black noise...but what sound does the shown white/black noise pattern make?

Excellent, I like that head of research. Speaking of which, I have been researching this AQ guy, a lot. It will be a scary thing if this is are man even more scary than the Al-Qaeda. Though AQ could mean them to I am at the moment writing up a detailed essay on AQ Khan and the reasons why he could be our guy. I will do the same for AL-Qaeda.

I cannot find any thing on the image. It is odd for sure and I am very sure in has nothing to do with Whah or Wah. But I am looking the best I can.

Sorry that I have not been so social on here for the last bit as I have been doing this and pLir at the same time and pLir took up a lot of my time this last weekend.

 		I have an idea about the symbol itself...but it's WAY WAY out in left field and probably will prove absolutely no use >.<

Why don't you at least say it instead of just alluding. After all, what's the point in posting if you aren't going to say anything?

 		On other forums my crack-pot theories have gotten me flamed, so I'm a little leery.

 		 MURA Aperture Pattern
The pattern is called the MURA aperture pattern.




http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/sats_n_data/missions/coded_legri.html
http://www.paulcarlisle.net/old/codedaperture.html

Still not sure what this means... more research to come.

EDIT:

Link to the patent: http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/6737652-description.html

Quote:
Most commonly, coded aperture imaging techniques are employed in the field of astronomy. For instance, coded aperture techniques have been used for many years in the imaging of distant x- or gamma-ray astronomical sources. These applications are classic "far field" (i.e. small object angle) imaging applications, where, under the proper conditions, conventional deconvolution techniques may be employed to produce ideal images of the source.

However, for near field applications, including nuclear medicine, molecular imaging, materials analysis, and contraband detection, among others, these same deconvolution methods do not produce ideal object images. Rather, in near field imaging applications, the reconstructed object images are corrupted by artifacts, including unsightly lines and/or bows through the object image. The presence of these artifacts render coded aperture systems far less attractive for near field imaging applications, particularly for applications such as nuclear medicine imaging, which rely heavily on visual inspection of the reconstructed object image. In the particular case of nuclear medicine imaging, for example, the presence of these artifacts may render it difficult or impossible to distinguish actual objects from artifacts in the reconstructed images, and may be a prohibitive factor weighing against the widespread adoption of coded aperture techniques.
