[Info] REPORTING IN your co-ordinate data

[Drakenul]

Y'know that's a great idea. In addition to the basic report style info we give in text, I think any pictures and audio gathered at the points should also be posted for everyone's benefit.

Everyone who's going to a coordinate on Tuesday should take LOTS of notes. Record as much as you can, and report in as soon as you can after each point. The people who go to the first point should create a report thread, and only the reports should go there. We can use other threads to spec on any new info we gain from the axons and let the reports stand on their own.

[Viirden]

Great idea! Just make sure to give the time and most basic info
separately.

while we're at it, wouldn't it make sense for us as a community to create a protocol for what to do at the site (like a list of things to do there for scouting work, guidelines for what to expect, what to record, etc.), just to be more efficient in the case that M does contact us somehow?

This way we aren't walking into contact with a future entity cold. It might help us avoid hearing about what someone else did at a site and later thinking, "Shoot! I should have done that too!"

Excellent. Mods, how about we have an official recon thread for the 24th, where everyone can report back on what they found?

Where the heck did the whole "dancing robots" thing come from?

I am of the theory of a prerecorded message, and of it being 2 different messages, 1 is 3 minutes, 1 is 4 minutes. Notice how the times are either 3 or 4 minutes apart all around.

since this is all spec to begin with....


to debate both sides...

if it's mearly a couple of recordings...why not a simitaneous launch?

if it's a live "person" - this is a 12 hour stretch here with basically NO breaks. What if she has to go potty?


Obviously the aliens are comming, and it's go time!!!

Why yes, I am a bit sleep depraived, why do you ask?

Reason for it staggered as my own spec, it can run from a SINGLE phone line, calling sequentially. To call all 220 locations at the same time would require that many dialers and phone lines. A single is much easier to work with, less expensive

[Viirden]

Although SPEC on what might be taking place is always an
appreciated and fun debate, the topic of what might be taking place
at these times is already taking place in multiple threads.

Please do not derail this train and help come up with ideas on how or
what should be reported and/or things that we should be prepared for.

I am under the thought that not all payphones can receive calls.
