If it looks like there might be some discrepencies in the coordinates (assuming everyone is still on board with the phone idea) maybe we should be re-checking ILB to make sure the coordinates haven't changed [meta] in case the PMs realized they messed up a couple or [/meta] [in-game] the Queen is still fixing any of SPDR's preliminary errors [/in-game]. Neways, good luck on Tuesday unless we decide it's something completely different. Smile

Coords have changed as recently as ... Friday?

I'd check the coords right before heading out Wink

Yikes, I just saw this one:

39.911569 -89.215736 7:27 6.8 km north of Illiopolis (b/t Springfield & Decatur) Illinois

If this coord is right and this acme is be believed:

http://mapper.acme.com/?lat=39.911569&long=-89.215736&scale=10

I doubt a phone booth is in that guy's harvest ...

And I don't recommend anyone geocaching into someone's corn field Smile

I'm pretty sure that this was posted before but it seems that it bears repeating. No New York City payphones accept incoming calls. This would make the six locations in NYC useless in a phone scenario.

It's hard to ignore that at least a handful of these coords seem like they'd be difficult to actually get to (for the pure physical theory) and that while some of the payphones match coords, they can't take incoming calls (or there are no payphones there).

Still feels like we're missing something, and I guess I'm just hoping it's not something vital. The evidence at hand seems to be pretty well beaten to death though. Maybe there will be another update tonight, before any axons get hurt.

I just hope the PMs didn't just throw in a couple locations just for the random effect. That would be the suck.

/me casts a glare in the PMs direction, as he woefully considers driving 6 hours roundtrip tomorrow to a spot in the middle of the Arizona desert.

It's a good sign that the hinting has stopped. Now that it looks like we are going to show up they've backed off.
