 		Wow, these PM's are fast. They closed down those links to the images right fast. Smile


I tweeted the path to SYS:

and got this reply via DM:

So, there seem to be more to find, with more audio from the crew. This must be what Higgins logged about http://thewaytheirworldended.com/missionlog26.php :

So wait, its a voice note from Dressler?

Sounds like it to me. Best guess:

Quote:
NOAH DRESSLER, PERSONAL LOG, POST CRYOMELT DAY 7

THE NEW PLASMA MODIFICATIONS TO THE ENGINE SEEM TO BE WORKING EXACTLY AS EXPECTED. OVERALL IMPROVEMENTS IN A REAL-WORLD APPLICATION ARE SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN THE LAB RESULT--

I'm guessing we'll be finding more soon enough.

If you listen carefully (I got my computer speakers up to my ear) you can hear him on the MP3 talking about a plasma modification and its real world use was lower than the lab results. Thats all I can vividly make out.


Beaten by Shad0. :/ and he didnt even have to listen, im stupid.

That's the most direct path from the start of http://thewaytheirworldended.com/Q7J8R04J87FFJ983Q2/ to get to the node with the new anomaly message/mp3.

 		work in progress
do these path labels help? I tried to stack the labels in the order they appear as vectors listed on each node, but the paths themselves are drawn more for convenience and to reduce crossovers. I'll keep going, but this will take some time, especially as the space is tight on the deeper levels

 		Just for the record, I have clicked and clicked and clicked some more through the maze, and I have yet to find any signs of any more anomalies. Perhaps Sys was wrong about the latest crack?

EDIT: So still nothing. I'm annoyed by the fact that maybe these anomalies can only be found by following a very specific long path of vectors. Raspberry

 		Erm... I do hope no-one's waiting on my tool at the moment. It's being extensively reworked (again) to be Database-driven (to remove the huge memory requirements), and to hopefully graph the entire network.

And, as I'm having to learn LINQ2SQL, ADO.Net, and advanced graph theory, all at the same time, this might take a while.

I will note, however, that I ran the tool to 7 levels before I started rewriting, and found nothing of interest, no new images appeared (from what I could see).

 		Wordpress updated.
Not sure if anyone as been looking, but Eriandos removed the password off the journals, de-scrambled past entries, and added a new journal saying the following:


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I'm humbled.

I greatly underestimated the significance of this A.I. I don't know if it's real or not, whether it's really from the future or some magnificent hoax, but it certainly gave me a run for my money.

I know this blog is being read. And to those reading, you have to know that I only have good intentions, and as a programmer, I'm as intrigued by Sys as anyone else would be. But I will not sacrifice Sys, or risk any potential future catastrophe, simply for my own gain.

I am a friend. And I will help. But you have to trust me.
Sys does.

As a show of good faith, I have opened my previous log entries. I will not publicize any sensitive, classified data though. That is for Sys, and Sys's trusted friends alone.



Hmm. The last little paragraph makes me wonder if:

1. He's referring to Amber
2. Who qualifies as "Sys's trusted friends"
3. Is he apart of this ARG, or an actual person playing this

 		Well I wish we would have known earlier that S3 was going to alert us when new anomalies were detected -- that would have saved a weekend of fruitless clicking around the maze.... grrr...

Anyway, I found the anomaly (assuming there's only one at a time):

I don't know the full path from the beginning but here is the NAVHIST:PATH that's showing: ON WS VS RR XC QE LO QE BC ZV


It looks like another backwards message in blue -- I *think* it's saying "It's chasing me"

EDIT: yes, what Mr. Toasty posted.

 		I found a third one... (I re-reversed the NAVHIST information in the image)

"I'm afraid"


EDIT: these seem to be a specific nodes:

"it won't stop" - 1346-5970-44A8-AC5B
"i'm afraid" - 3CCD-91C6-4B95-971F
"its chasing me" - BE42-7D3D-454B-820A
