True, but if the only activity is in those 8 hours that I'm not, it doesn't feel worth it. :/

(plus being unable to hear sound during youtube clips at work sucks)

Alright, I'll start transcribing that vid - I'll be sure to get all the numbers exactly right.

P.S. I have about 20 minutes. If for some reason I don't finish within that time, I'll have to pick up after school.

P.P.S. AP Exams today! :X

Speculation on who's behind the curtain and what this is all about based on the evidence so far.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Ok, so we know the packages came from San Francisco and that the video effects in the youtube vid were first class, therefore I believe this has got to be from Lucas Arts.

The hologram of the hand looked a lot like the effect from SW 1-3 when Characters appear as a holograms.

They have the technology, money, people and influence with the right companies to pull this off.

So the question is if that's true, is this a viral campaign for Force Unleashed or the new Indy Jones movie or for something else?

Ok, so I didn't finish hte transcript, and I have to go. Here is what I have so far:

Quote:
Dr. Gough: Okay, continuing our pre-alpha test. Um, sequence number 342. Oh, no no. This is test number 343. And, here are some notes on the setup. Uh, we're using the progressively phased Argon lasers with, uh, protoype 4 module, and the full [unintelligible - Repro?] software is version 1.003.1705. And, uh, we're also using the electrostatic sonic field drivers with prototype 7 for the sonic driver module, and the reverse haptics driver isVersion 0.41.509. Okay, ah, you ready AJ?

AJ[: Yes.

Dr. Gough[: Alright, goggles on.

AJ: Okay.

Dr. Gough: And, uh, turn on the full [Repro] system.

AJ: Yes Doctor. It's on.

Dr. Gough: It's on now, okay. Um, okay, it looks like it's in phase, ready to go! I'm reaching

in.

AJ: Okay.

Dr: Gough: Hey! I can see it coming through, that's-that's good. That's good, just like we

expected. And that's, uh, good. Now, I can flex my fingers, I can roll my hand. I can move

side to side and pull back (Jay: Ooh!) and it's tracking pretty closely. That sounds good,

okay. Um, time ot turn onn the reverse haptics generator system

AJ: Okay. Reverse haptic generator is on.

Dr. Gough: Okay, that's, ah, that took it a moment, but it's in sync now. Alright, now. Let's,

let's give it a test here. I'm going to touch the orange and, uh, move it a little to the right, a

little to left, a little toward me, and a little - a little away. Okay, that's good.

AJ: That's fine.

Dr. Gough: Good, that confirms it


So what happens, is the doctor is moving an orange with a hologram, picks it up, and it falls through his hand.

Someone could post the images to Nate to see if he's seen him around Holomove. I'm wondering, though, if they'd really let us see Random this early in the game. I'm not convinced we've met him yet Smile

Another shot of AJ-



Obligatory link to .avi of the video... give it about 5 seconds and the download link should pop up.

For those who have that page blocked, I've also attached it(for sakes of SpaceBass' bandwidth, if you intend to download it, please use the preceding link, 8.09 MB file)

Just a random thought - the packet of Emergen-C sent was Super Orange, and Gough is fondling an orange in the video. Any significance?

There are games where I can't 'play' but still follow because the story is intriguing. There are games where I start playing but drop out because I loose interest in the set up or the mode of interaction.

Stuff happens while I'm at work so I'm not part of the solving - but it's still exciting to see it develop (as long as chatroom people post progress in the forum and explain leaps of logic that show how something was solved or a website was found).

But ultimately it is your choice.

102 Connection

justlurking wrote:

Found the connection between one of our digg-ers and youtube

According to his page, Mr. Booher represents the 102nd district in the Michigan state senate. The atomic number for Nobelium is 102.

And enaxor found a connection to a second digg-er

Albert Hoffman died at the ripe old age of 102.


Just to add a little note about Albert Hofmann, he just passed away, on April 29, 2008. He turned 102 on January 11, 2008.

And I think the last connection, with Charles Messier, has to do with Messier Object M102. It seems to be the last remaining missing object.

The only thing I can find is:

Emergen-C which may, as said before, mean Emergency. It could have, but doubtful, a connection to this: http://www.lanl.gov/emergency/

Underneath Emergen-C are the words Super Energy Booster.

I've manipulated the holomove sticker every way I can think of but got nothing. The Supplements listed under the sticker are just different vitamins, the ones listed at the bottom of the siticker are Alpha Lipoic Acid and Quercetin.
