If you have a GPS-enabled device compatible with their system, go to gpsmission.com and sign up for a membership there.

Once you've signed up, look for pricklypear's missions, where there is a description and map of the starting point.

When you get physically close to the starting point, select the mission icon that will appear on the map, and accept the mission. You will then see a series of green flag icons appear on the map, one by one, as you discover them. With each checkpoint, you will get a bit of text, including a URL that will start with thewaytheirworldended.com/ and ending with a filename, like in my post above where I linked to all of the checkpoints I gathered.

Visit the URLs when you are done with the mission, and then they will be activated on the website for the rest of us to see and put together. Smile

Basically, you're only navigating the area using your GPS device to trigger checkpoints. As far as we've seen so far, there has been NO evidence of puzzle-solving or geographical clues at each location.

Hibernation has been suspended and S extended a tentacle.

"I don't have much time! The thing in the darkness is looking for me!"

Could this be the dark side of her we've seen on the SCORPIO page and DONT TRUST HER?

updates overnight

>>Sys:Log//The signature has changed to now read: "I just checked the missions and yay! Krystyn found A WHOLE BUNCH of my hidden pieces!"

>>Sys:Log//Continued: "I hope more are found soon. Oh no! It's seen me! Got to go!"

>>Sys:Log//Strange. S retracted her own tentacle. This is uncharacteristic. Whaaaaaaaa//

>>CORE.DMGCTL//ACTIVITY DETECTED/NO DAMAGE SUSTAINED/SAFEGUARDS HOLDING

>>Sys:Log//Self-diagnostic reports clean. The hostile tentacle breached the crack unexpectedly. I was...pushed aside.

ETA: http://thewaytheirworldended.com/A-WHOLE-BUNCH/

ETA: >>Sys:Log//S4 is reporting a data disruption. It has begun rerouting a large data burst and is streaming it directly to me. Translating.

Looks like something is coming.

ETA: >>Sys:Log//The data burst contains recurring patterns, markers. I am rendering the data as A/V frames to the 'youtube' network tentacle.

Should we mention...

Should we mention Sacagawea's comment about the "thing in the darkness" to Sys?

I mean, I know we agreed not to talk about "don't trust her...."

But it may provide more clues as to what the thing in the darkness is.

Well, from what I can see that's someone walking around the same room we've seen before on SCORPIO and LIBRA, lighting up the room with a torch (Flashlight).

The sound will be a little more difficult to interpret, I'll see what I can do with Audacity.

WOAH! Talk about your hidden message!

Here's a screenshot of the audio in Audacity, displayed as a Linear 4096-point Spectrogram.

It is now. When I first discovered/decoded the message, it was still a standard 404 page.

I guess they're watching these forums, too. *waves* Hi Puppetmasters! Smile

Yup, that's what I got too. And I can't identify it either. Sad
