my notes on the videos

May 6, 2008 hall #2 and Nathan at 11:06 am

Nathan: Hi guys, this is Eliza.
Eliza: Hi.
Nathan: She's a big fan of Your Vegas too. Isn't that right?
Eliza: Yea.

George stops by to thank Nathan for the IP phone.

May 9, 2008 hall #3, A3 (Noel's desk), and R4 (bathroom) at 15:55 (3:55 pm)

no audio, except in R4

We are distracted by Jon Paul and Noel but the things to be suspect of are as follows:

1) George seems to be searching for something and ask Nathan something.

2) The mail guy switches someones' drinks and takes one drink with him.

May 12 Recep #6 at 9:20 am

The main thing to notice here is the guy carrying the mail crate switches it with the crate at the reception cubicle and hurriedly drops new crate off at the first cubicle on the right. A bit later a guy in a white shirt goes in to that cubicle. While someone wearing a mask distracts us. Then the mail guy comes back and hurriedly takes both crates. Later we see Nathan and Jay walk past, putting them both away from their cubicle. At this time we see the guy from the first cubicle take off hurriedly down the hall.

I assume the guy got something from the crate and while Nathan and Jay were away from their cubicle he takes the crane puzzle to Nathan's desk. Which Nathan finds on May 14 in this post. If that's true then we have at least 3 people in on it. Whoever put the item in the crate in the first place, the mail guy, and the guy in the first cubicle.

Same day May 12 Eliza Marks #2 at 19:13 (7:13 pm)

No audio but Eliza is studing some papers and seems to get mildly upset as Nathan and Jay have their chair race.

I get the feeling that Eliza doesn't know about this camera.

May 14, 2008 hall #2 at 10:52 am

background: Eliza and Erik walk by and a different mail guy delivers some mail to the cubicle behind Nathan's and they have the dry erase board set up.

The odd thing here is that Nathan starts out talking as if he is talking to us on one of his videos.

Nathan: It's been a pretty long day and Jay and I have been working on this problem for awhile. A little problem that turned into a much bigger problem than we thought. What do you think is going on Jay?

Jay: I think it's just a syntax problem, quite honestly.

Nathan: Yea. So, I don't know. We'll keep chipping away at it. Um, alright, so what do you think? Any thoughts? I mean, I'm open to, you know, what ever kind of solution we can come up with here.

Jay: Maybe we can go back through and just go line by line.

Nathan: Just go line by line. All right. We decided that the first ten were fine. Well, I guess we should go through the first ten anyways.

Jay: Yea.

Nathan: Yea, line by line.

Jay: Yea, start from the very beginning. Wait, just let me ... (he goes back to his computer and looks at something.) I keep looking at that same thing over and over again.

Nathan: Yea, yea, yea. Do you want to try, um, try constructing another library and then come back to this one? I mean, kinda refresh a little bit or ..

Jay: I don't know. I just feel like if we go there we are just going to end up back here.

Nathan: Right. Let me pull up something right quick. Cause, I had a thought on this one thing. Yea, yea, yea, so.

Nathan: What's up?

Jay: I thought I had it.

Nathan: I think, so from page one, these match up. And then I tried, I tried putting. I tried putting these last lines.

Jay: All right. So, wait, let's just.

Nathan: Sure, sure.

Jay: So, Display, Bound Box, Delegate, ??, set, private, enum, sort axis, function of x and y.

Nathan: Sorry, sorry, go back, one more time.

Jay: All right.

Nathan: Just that last one. ... Okay, yea, yea, yea. Let me, let me. You read it off and I'll put it in here.

Jay: All right. Display, Bounding Box, Delegate..

Nathan: Sorry, sorry, a little slower.

Jay: Capital D, Display. capital B, Bounding, capital B, Box, capital D, Delegate, get colon, set, colon, private enum, sort axis, function of X and Y, and then Distance equals convert function.


I hope some of you can help with that last part, cause I couldn't hear it all that well.

May 15, 2008 ELot and Patio #4 at 18:31 (6:31 pm)

In the east parking lot, we see Eliza and Erik walk out together and after talking Erik kisses Eliza before leaving.

The Patio is just a different view of them in the parking lot before Erik leaves.

May 16, 2008 Recep #6 at 14:31 (2:31 pm)

Here we see the mail guy once again. Nothing interesting about that. A man and a woman seem to be having a minor disagreement in the first cubicle on the right.

Same day, May 16, 2008 hall #2 at 16:27 (4:27 pm)

This is where George comes in and turns off Nathan's music.

May 19, 2008 Eliza Marks #1 and #2 at 15:42 (3:42 pm)

This is where Eliza hides her work on her laptop from Nathan and ask him to give her ten minutes when it looks like (to me) she gets a text or something on her cell phone or something.

May 20, 2008 hall #2 and Nathan's Desk at 15:37 (3:37 pm)

This is the gut wrenching voice mail from Eliza to Nathan. The mail guy walks by again.

Memorial day, May 26, 2008 Eliza Marks #1 and #3, at 12:07 pm

Eliza on the phone with Erik while AJ waits on the couch. At the end Eliza throws things off her desk and AJ leaves without saying a word.

Quote:
Eliza on the phone Yes, I'm looking at it right now. Yes, Erik. It'll work, trust me. Yea, he's here. He's been working around the clock. Erik. It.. You need to. (slams the phone down)

This should have been on May 28, 2008 so I will describe it under that date.

May 27, 2008 Erik Andersen #1 and #2 and hall #6, at 16:23 (4:23 pm

Erik talks to the newspaper guy in Eliza's presence and tells Eliza, "he will do." I assume they hire him for the press releases.

Eliza Come with me.


May 28, 2008 Erik Andersen #1 and #2 and hall #6, at 14:53 (2:53 pm)

Erik calls George into his office and basically tells him to have a spine. In other words, Erik is doing what he told Eliza he would do back on May 23.

Earlier on Nathan's blog, he let us know that he was able to trace the location of the server hosting Erik's spy cams, here: http://69.60.10.106/

After lots of trying, jabroni finally figured out the password:

login: eandersen
pw: equity

That's where all the vids come from. Sorry if it wasn't clear -- the hunt for the password was mostly discussed in the Nate's blog thread.

New videos were uploaded to Erik's offsite security DVR. Mapmaker is uploading them to Holomovies Youtube Account. Thanks Map Very Happy

Here's a loose transcript of the conversation between George and Nathan... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meXXfmKnWi8

Quote:
George: Ohhhhh….. I got a phone call the other day Nathan. I sent my parents that IPphone….it's brilliant. My father called he was all excited, he added up everything. $2500, that's how much money they made last year. I had a simple dream. You know, I wanted to give them a way out. They did everything for me. And I wanted to return the favor, no matter what it took. Look…look, this is the home I'm building…for us all….. long pause……… I had such high hopes.

Nathan: What's the matter George? You okay?

George: I lost my way…Nathan… and I need your help today. Now! Please! Nathan.

Nathan: Yeah what's going on?

George: I need your help.

Nathan: George I don't…I don't kn……….

George: whispers "Oh no." as he finds the camera.

Newest wave of videos, up until 6/6 16:21, are on YouTube now. One's still processing, but should be done any minute now.

Now I feel guilty about hating on George. He seems like a nice guy who's been pushed my Erik and (maybe) Eliza. It seems that they are the ones behind the whole thing. Sad So now we're rooting for Nate, Jay, and George? And of course, hoping Erik dies?

goons

After the goons chased George at around 3:52 pm about 28 minutes later, Nathan gets a call on his cell. The call could have been from George warning Nathan about the goons. Just before Nathan got the call he said, "I'm this close to solving this thing." After the call, Nathan says, "Who?" and starts to run then turns back to grab some of his stuff. Jay says, "What's going on?" Nathan grabs throws some stuff into his backpack then takes off running. Here's praying they didn't catch him. I think it's pretty obvious, Nathan and George will no longer be at Holomove.

Using the videos, here's a very rough idea of the office layout at Holomove. Maybe someone can take this and tweak it for a better representation.

This might be "meta", but all my belief of Nathan and Jay being programmers is lost completely in the video on May 14th.

1) Programmers do not talk like that in groups, especially groups where there aren't any non-programmers.

2) Nathan's the slowest typist on the planet.

3) Unless they wrote their own language for the application, what they're dictating makes absolutely no sense from a programming standpoint. They're throwing in Java and C# buzzwords, but everything else leaves such gaping holes in design it's not even funny.

If you have an actor that's supposed to be a programmer, the best thing you can ever do is never try to have him talk about programming.
