here are the file names (in order) for those who didn't download them:

The 2nd half of the filenames are in HEX. I tried converting them to decimal, but they don't seem to make much sense...

ie:

b66f8355e5 = 783554926053

 		yeah, that's standard 'unique' flickr filenames. nothing there.
the order of files in a photostream entirely depends on the order uploads are completed to flickr (but they can be positioned manually in a set)

Does he actually do stand-up comedy? Or does he just fill in the space between acts? Cuz I gotta say, that is pretty pathetic. No, no...it's sad, actually. Raspberry

Exactly.

Also, about the "briddes = birds" debate:
Quote:
The name Briddes Roune (BREE-dess RONE) is Middle English for bird song/conversation/speech (source)


So it is birds - although why and what kind, we don't know yet.

As for the Twitter account under the name ChuckDidEate - at first I thought it was a game-jacker. But then I realized he listed eating the Briddes a day and 1/2 before the packets went out. Exciting!

 		Hey I think I might have something:

on the "simple... and direct" chart there are a series of numbers and superscript letters, some with numbers next to them. The letters and numbers repeat but not the superscript numbers. I believe the superscripted numbers represent how often a letter is used, i.e. R4 means there are 4 R's, E3 means there are 3 E's. Break it down and you get the following:

A EEE F G H II K L M NN OOO RRRR S TT UU WW YY

I believe there's an anagram in here somewhere and you can easily spell Milwaukee. I ran it through and anagram maker but with over 35000 phrases I couldn't come up with anything meaningful. I'm also completely ignoring the other charts and the non superscript numbers in the chart.

So anyone have any ideas?


Oh and I actually live in Milwaukee, hence the name and interest in this arg!

 		I've been trying that too but I really haven't gotten anything comprehensible beyond Milwaukee.

 		"Froglike or inhumane tortures."

That's what some anagram generator gave to me. It doesn't really jump out as anything significant, but it's what I got.

 		hmm... I retyped all the letters the number of times for the superscript (1 or more of each) for

HWWKUULERORRRRSRRRUYYYEERREEEAFOONWMITIINNGTTOOO

and running it through the oneacross anagram generator, there was one single match with Milwaukee:

I made a comment before that his standup looks like the type of routine that would be considered comedy in the TIMM world. Razz

Or the Tim & Eric world. The TIMM video looked a lot like work they would have done. Mix that with Tim Heidecker's RL stand-up...could be bad on purpose?

I was heading down the same route.. you can also get "RE-SEAT M-ROTOR" out of there.. nothing solid yet, though..


Also, ChuckDideEate is "enjoying a fine stew" now..

It could also mean that he has eaten conversation. Words?

So maybe some of the words are missing? Or some letters? Or there are sounds that Jagoda has eaten.

@flamingsheep: Totally agree with that statement right there. Laughing



@drpfenderson: Yeah, it does actually. I never have cared for T&E though; don't really find them funny. Clever, but not funny. Must be an acquired comedic taste... Wink
