I was just down that way on the Mississippi, but alas I cannot get off the boat whenever I want. It sucks.

Hey guys. I do apologize for my abscence; my computer kicked the bucket. However, I'm back for good and am still willing to visit anywhere that needs going (within reason of course!). I just read though the thread but am still a bit confused. I'll go back through it again later tonight and try to see what I'm not getting. In the meantime though, if there's someplace that needs visiting and someone can give me the location/time/whatever it might be that I'm supposed to be looking for, I'd be happy to oblige.

degravedi, the location is the bridge where the ferry went down. i'd say most likely the playground under the bridge where they want to build a memorial. as for when - not quite sure. Oct 8th was our first guess, but now possibly Oct 31st? if you have enough time you could just head down and see if there is anything there yet.

Okay guys, I'll be heading down to check out the three areas tomorrow. I just really hope that I don't meet 00CRESCENT00 there. The video of him introducing himself to us creeps the heck out of me. If I don't report back tomorrow evening, someone call the cops...

I got this PM in relation to my comment question on whether the location is the death or burial site:
subject: where
"O great vein of earth, return to your
boundaries, to your limits, and live at
peace with us."
"O great vein of earth" = the river
"return to your boundaries, to your limits" = as the poem is about a flood, I'm sure the writer is asking the river to return to it's normal banks
"and live at peace with us" = which would thus be the end of the flood
So either it's the river bank or the levee which is the river's boundary/limit. (I know it's impossible to tell from the aerial shots but that large swath of concrete at the location is actually one side of a dirt berm that acts as that area's levee.)

chat with crescent on Yahoo (thecrescentis)
Quote:
who is this? You added me as a friend?
yes we are all friends i am the crescent
How can I help you crescent?
i have a message for you
she arrives too early
she will not be met with harm
yet she will find no message
the time is not right
without order this is chaos
and chaos creates order
So we have to wait for chaos to attain order. When will the time be right? How will we know?
chaos exists
now as we speak
you know the time already
it has been said
deliver
I think it's too early degravedi

Ahh, alright then. I'll hold off.
And if we "know the time already", I guess it's time to hit the videos for me again.
Edit: Unless of course it is the 31st as the glyph suggests, or even the 20th as the anniversary.

Another short convo with "thecrescentis" Any News?
You are all doing well
Are we? We just seem to be doing nothing. No sense of direction or purpose.
You all serve a purpose. In time it will be revealed.
Stay well. Keep in touch.
Yes. I am watching.

New Video Two figures (human) left one 78) i am guessing 78 cresent.
a face with three X's and the words "we exist" and then just 3 X's choose wisely.
i am guessing that this references that at the site of the next pick up there will be a chose of three and only one is the right message.
"we exist" does this mean that the drop has occurred?? HMMMMM i wish i was in the LA providence.

Sorry, I forgot to disable smileys. That last bit should be "not 78)."

Well it's not Caesar. It could be Vigenere which would indeed need a key to decrypt, hence the key in the video? If that's true then perhaps the shot of the key in the envelope means that the key to solve this will be in Crescent's next message? (Edit:) I mean in the messgage that is going to be dropped of course.
