Plenty of info now up: http://sites.google.com/site/anaerin/results-1

Some couldn't be unencoded, but the encoded text is there if someone else wants a try. (The decoder I'm using is very picky about what it will and won't accept, apparently).

Just for reference, the GRP:20090521 set we have already grabbed. Along with most of (I think) the SDAT1 stuff.

We're currently looking for GRP:20090608 stuff.

And the other items (that link to /sys/whatever) are already logged on the site itself, at /SYS/ARCHIVE.

It might be an idea to read back through this thread (I know, it's LONG) to find out just where we're up to, and to avoid all this Trout. Every little helps, though. Smile

A clearer version is here. I believe it's an image of a massive black hole somewhere in the Milky Way galaxy -- anyone here speak Russian?

Has someone noted this yet? On the font page (http://thewaytheirworldended.com/) we have a new element to the page:
Quote:
A-WHOLE-BUNCH

[BROKEN-PIECES]
[STREWN-ABOUT]
[SCATTERED-STARS]


And A-WHOLE-BUNCH takes you to http://thewaytheirworldended.com/A-WHOLE-BUNCH/ which lists all of the princess' parts so far!

Is this what the re-purposed S4 is now doing?

And it appears the crack is open...

Transcripts of mp3s on SCATTERED-STARS

Here's a compilation of the audios on http://thewaytheirworldended.com/SCATTERED-STARS/
I dropped them at http://drop.io/twtwtwe all strung together for your listening pleasure. Feel free to add other audio clips that we might get to that page.

The "(?)" are words that I'm not sure of... the "???" are sections that I can't make out. I'll edit this post with any suggestions/corrections.

http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/very-long-time.mp3
Quote:
Dreaming Eyes cried until she fell asleep. And then when she woke up, she started crying again
There was only a ??? now, and she sat waiting by the dark, cold sides of the box for a very long time.
Sometimes she would try to push open the door, but it just wouldn't move.
(sniff, sniff) "Bushy Tail will come soon", she said at the big box, sniffing away tears. "And she will open you up." The box didn't answer. It only sat, waiting.
Dreaming Eyes didn't know why, but she felt afraid of the big walls(?)


http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/the-door-opened.mp3
Quote:
Suddenly the boxes all began to creak and scream. Dreaming Eyes watched as the light began to peek through at the edges. Bushy Tail had come?! She was opening the box and ???? planet
When the door opened all the way though, it wasn't Bushy Tail peeking in.


http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/hard-red-face.mp3
Quote:
The new monster had a hard, red face and eyes that held the dark secrets to the stars.
Dreaming Eyes ran quickly to the back of the box, in fear, before she was seen.
The Red Monster stepped into the shadows and looked around. The red face turning this way and that. It stopped suddenly when it saw Dreaming Eyes, and she was scared! But the red face softened and the monster said "Hello, little person. What are you doing here? This is not a good place for you to be."


http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/how-uncomfortable.mp3
Quote:
Dreaming Eyes shivered against the back of the box. "Please don't hurt me!", she begged. I got lost and she didn't come to find me!", she started crying again.
"Well, now I've got you instead. Why don't you come with me and we'll give you some food and a little bed to sleep in".
Dreaming Eyes thought of how she had slept on the hard, cold floor and how uncomfortable it was. She thought of how her tummy felt it was going to eat itself.
Maybe the Red Monster was really not a monster at all.
She looked at his red face and a burly hand stretched out towards hers. She headed towards it with tears in her eyes.


http://thewaytheirworldended.com//CLIP/away-to-safety.mp3
Quote:
As she creeped out of the box the lights of the outside hurt her eyes and she lifted her arms to protect them but the Red Monster took her hand again before she could really see and began to lead her away to safety.
When she could see again, Dreaming Eyes wiped her eyes and blinked in wonder. She'd come out of *her* box but into an even *bigger* box! There were letters and doors and a big old(?) light shining down. This box was giant!


http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/just-like-you.mp3
Quote:
The Red Monster lead her through many doors and empty places, until they came to a place that wasn't so empty
"You're very lucky" he told her. "This is a place for lost children just like you."
Dreaming Eyes sniffed away some tears (sniff sniff)
She looked at the wall of this new place. There was writing and lines and colors and words and drawings. It looked really nice and cozy. There were many little boys and girls sitting against the walls like little puppies waiting to be outside(?) but they didn't look at her. She sniffled and tried not to cry again .
She looked up at the Red Monster and asked, "Are you going to help me find my family again?". The monster smiled and the sequins(?) of his eyes sparkled.
"We'll take you to your home, I promise"


http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/with-the-others.mp3
Quote:
Dreaming Eyes was so happy to hear that she'd be taken back to her sister, it would be OK, just like it always was.
"Can I have something to eat before we get there, please?" The Red Monster looked at her big, ??? eyes and ??? gritty face. "Go sit with the others and you'll be eating very soon


http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/sad-little-puppies.mp3
Quote:
She smiled and skipped over to the wall with the others.
The Red Monster lumbered away and she sat down with three dirty, sad, little puppies.
The biggest one looked at her. "What did they tell you?", he asked.
Dreaming Eyes beamed."They're going to take me home!"
He didn't say anything... he just looked away and disappeared against the wall.


http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/clean-white-sheets.mp3
Quote:
Dreaming Eyes stared(?) around some more at this new place.
Little beds stood against the walls with teeny white sheets.
Everything was made of polished metal that shined(?) light starlight
She'd never seen anything like this before
It was so much cleaner than anywhere she'd ever been. She shivered and hopped up to sit on a bed. Beneath the sheets, the bed was very hard And when Dreaming Eyes wrapped the sheets around herself, it didn't make her any warmer


http://thewaytheirworldended.com//CLIP/to-keep-warm.mp3
Quote:
She sat and watched all the other children.They were all quiet and shivering too. They must also be waiting to go home
She let out a little smile and curled up in the sheets trying to keep warm.
Soon the Red Monster was going to take them all home.

It further appears that SYS is attempting to "humor S" and "play along," as indicated in prior tweets:

Hmmm... a timed treasure hunt? I guess that's one way to slow us down, especially as we don't know where they'll be.

I haven't had time to help with the maze or anything, but I've been keeping up with the thread and twitter. Where did the Russian page come from?

Are we meant to decode those classified segments, or just guess based on the pieces we have?

I found a picture that has to be the same one from int's profile.
Judging from the highres shot, this appears to be an extreme closeup of the center.
It's located at the center of our galaxy, it produces radio waves, and Sgr A* (Sagittarius A*) is believed to be a "supermassive black hole".
