Re: On the sending of Faxes...
too late.

I think we should hang on to the fax for now and wait to see what happens. We really don't know who we can trust with it just yet.


Too late. It got sent via email to Mike Russo right after the call where it was suggested. If that ball matters, it is in motion.

Let's see if we've put Mike Russo's life in danger. Razz May Cool Dog watch over you, Mike!

When I went to school this morning, I printed out the Inner page with the Basic Dark Dollar Arrangements and the page with the fax.
I was looking at the two pages and saw that School Day fit the left side of the fax and drew a line between the two to represent it.

I noticed the same with three of the other dark dollar arrangements and did the same.
After I did so with the New Feeling arrangement, I looked at it and for some reason it reminded me of a prism. I had four out of the six lines needed to make a prism. I noticed that I had also used 4/6 of the Dark Dollar arrangements. This reminded me of the dice, six sides to a dice and more importantly the fours ontop of them. The fractions have the same denominator as the sides to a dice and on the top of them was a four. The star is the only symbol not on the Dark Dollar Arrangement page, and on the dice there was a four so I figured finding the value of the star on the dice might be important, and going by the idea that if you add two opposite sides of any dice you get seven, the star should be 1. (Although another person said the star should be six and the dice was probably rigged)
Another thing I noticed while doing the New Feeling arrangement was that in this opposed thumbprint was an x, not a cross and that it would signal a spot (Well, I guess this is kinda durr hurr) which makes me think that somehow we are supposed to use this information to find out what spot x is marking.


Then again, as someone else said, I could just be making connections where there aren't any.
Just an idea anyway.

Pendragon4, you could be on to something.

Similar triangle in the map of active cities:



Perhaps the fax is an encoded version of Chuck's route for the Food Tour. Could the rebels be planning to assasinate Chuck? D:

I hope you don't mind but I cleaned up your picture and reduced it's size to make it easier to read and to fit the board better. I also resized your original in case you'd like to edit your original post. I don't know if you're on the right track or not but in the interest of helping a fellow ARGer get their theories/ideas across I thought I'd try to help.

The original pic can be found here:

And here is the revised pic:

No, we're just thinking... It may be a map that leads to something.

glad to see you are thinking. nice. of course it is a map, but hardly a "solution", which was your claim and prompted my question?

I'm sorry for this great offense caused to you by claiming we might have found a possible puzzle solution. I'd talk when you do something for the ARG and not just sit back and criticize other people. Your comment was rather rude and I don't see you doing anything to help.

arrogance is obviously your 'forte'. you posted that you had "solved" something. i questioned this claim. if you have solved something, let's have it. otherwise, your musings are simply further speculation. why not phrase it as such?

why the hate in a game as fun as this?

So more like this:



I had to distort it some but it is roughly the same shape. Whether this pans out or not it's an interesting idea. Maybe the X is where the rebel base is and they plan to abduct Jagoda on his way back from Decatur?

Try to remain cool guys. We're all feeling the pressure to figure this puzzle out but try to remember that we're all on the same side. We have to work together on this, and we're all doing the best we can. So lets try to be civil to each other ok?
