More afterworld links.

Maia describes 'meeting the nice man with the glasses', which I presume is russel.

also in episode 4 of afterworld, a missing poster in the pharmacy which was broken into has the date of November 19th, 11-19.

Good point I actually missed that in Afterworld and forgot to make the point about the 'nice man with the glasses'.

I think the biggest clue so far is the whole IBM thing and the fact Maia clearly says.

Today's video seems to just be a version of the first video on Maia's phone.

Also, no new camera is available yet. I noticed that the power meter seems to be staying at 100% and not decreasing...

Just to speculate on the letters we have so far, I reckon the word might be something ending in NET, so:

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ N E T

Furthermore, from the video I posted yesterday of the videos on Maia's phone, I think the rail signal she zoomed in on might be a letter 'i'.

Day 1: Video.

If anyone can see this, my name is Maia Sturn. I don't know what happened but, I was in the terminal when all the power went off and everyone disappeared. I'm in Terminal 4, Heathrow and if you can see this please, send help.

I'm okay, I'm not hurt but... There's no power and nothing's working except erm... This PublicNET; it's like a Wifi network or something. Anyway if I've managed to upload this it means, it means it's working so... If anybody's out there, please; help.


Well neither PublicNET or SearchNET seem to fit. So I'm at a loss. And yeah I do believe that things will begin to really kick off on Monday.

At least, I hope so!

EDIT:

New stuff on Maia's phone.

Just had a quick look on the site, seems to be some activity on there now, as after a few minutes looking round on full power, the website isn't loading at all. Good work Leyton, definite Afterworld tie-in it seems!

Excellent, i have been watching the afterworld eps on ytube this morning. But the characters from that dont appear to do anything in searchnet.

A few things left to unlock. First the army symbol does not highlight in commnet and second the union jack has not done anything yet.

If the word ends in "net", is it a militarynet or government net or royalitynet we should be looking for?

i get a picture of the thames and barges i havnt seen before with "engineer".

The word "londonnet" causes a freeze...no picture or pdf nothing...

Londonnet brings up some footage of a guy blowing a trumpet on a watchtower.

Wait'a'sec, the original banner advert is called aw.swf AFTERWORLD.SWF.

I don't belive it, it was under our noses all that time!

Doh!! Embarassed

Ok well I sent a msg saying "Are you there?" To the txt number but got nothing back... I wouldn't expect it though because it's not an actual phone number.

I was going to suggest maybe the letters we found should translate to numbers to become a UK Mobile number but they're 11 digits.

I think that HC62.N3 No.6 is a library code.

Oh and did anyone else catch this on the NOAA PDF?

Two R's underlined.

Nvm I'm guessing this is to do w/ the PGTO to make Purgatory somewhere along the lines?
