Or something corp?

EDIT: Just a thought; but as we're having problems descrambling the anagram, could it be that it's either not an anagram (possibly an encoded message, with 108020 as the key?) or, that it's an anagram in another language? Ever since I've started looking at the phrase I've been unable to shake this niggling feeling about latin words being used. It's probably nothing, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

Only other language I can think of would be Spanish because of the source material, the movie "REC".

That gave me a thought. If this is virus/disease related, then it may be the latin name for it... or similar.

First off, Great idea!

I got really excited and remembering the description of the movie saying it was some type of rabies, i looked up the scientific name of rabies.... you guys'll never guess what it is...............rabies!

Maybe its some other scientific name, i do really like the latin idea.




BTW: Even though there's no update to the blog since we found the building, Mike's posted some pics of the building on his flickr account.

I'm a newbie, so if I'm way off base, I apologize in advance....but...what if it's a bit more literal rather than a straight anagram? Map Our Logic 108020 - could these be coordinates on a map or a street address? Map "our logic 108020" for example.

I've never researched anything like this so I'm not sure where to begin, but I thought I'd throw a new idea out there - I tried this on Google maps searched for "our logic 108020" and found nothing that seemed related. But I just read the whole thread and I might not recognize something important.

That sounds like it might just work.

Edit: Alright, I did a little searching on google maps. Typed 108020 into google maps. One user created result was a link to Wikimapia with a Montclair State University in New Jersey. That doesn't seem right.

Decided to see if there was a Montclair in CA, which there is. And it's only 34 miles from LA. http://tinyurl.com/437qh7

This is probably just a coincidence but who knows?

thats a great idea but eric confirmed it was an anagram, and it does say "unscramble" on the website....

And I just don't think this game is ever gonna be that subtle

I found this site that unscrambles anagrams in different languages, including latin:- http://www.arrak.fi/en/ag

the results from running "map our logic" for latin phrases mean nothing to me, but maybe someone out there who knows a bit of latin can see something? It doesn't seem to check Spanish dictionaries unfortunately.

My wife suggested this after taking the piss out of us for our "Geeky ARGy game thingo."

according to IMDB the release date is 17 October 2008. the digits most likely are (when unscrambled) 102008.
