Re: Ludwig Skull -Remember Cash

I wrote down short descriptions of how the skulls were found by general method (pignose, hotspot or string). So far:

[drizjr]

On dreamerblue's suggestion to revisit the pages with "sand painted" constellations, we found two more skulls.

On http://thewaytheirworldended.com/NOT-A-GOOD-PLACE/ the hot spot is by the tail of scorpion. Clicking that gives us

On http://thewaytheirworldended.com/MY-TIME-HAS-COME/ the hot spot is bottom, center-ish

Another sand-painting one: the Goldilocks Skull, Ursula. Got it from ALONE-ALONE-ALONE.

Wow. Nice work, guys! Extra props goes out to drizjr. I read through all of the goings-on at the wiki, and went to all of the different skulls up so far and put in my name and email at all of them.

Of course, this goes silent for like a week when I have nothing going on, and then picks up on the one day that I'm booked... Guess that's just how it goes though, haha.

Wow, nice find ancalime! I was about to post, then was informed that you had just posted another skull haha.

[dreamerblue]

Good find, ancalime. Anyway you can post a screenie of where in the paint puzzle you found the skull?

[ancalime]

Thanks!

Here ya go, it's a little south of the middle.

Just wanted to say, I checked all paintball paintings. I checked the entire area, going up and down, moving left with the width of my cursor and so on. The hotspot box is twice the cursor width for me. That should cover it, at least I found all 3 that have been found again this way.

No new findings. I claim they are "clean".

Updated my lists above.

[catherwood]

people keep asking for all of the images from story-part-5 to be gathered together, so here it is (at 50% resolution, for size) and the full version will be at drop.io here)

[catherwood]

people have also asked for all of the images from story-part-6 (the most recent) to be gathered together, so here it is (in two halves, for dramatic display, and at 50% and 25% resolution, for size) and the full versions will be at drop.io here shortly)

Holy man, I wish I knew what was going on, as this all looks very exciting!

Re: url's used for each child

[krystyn]

We were discussing this a tiny bit in IRC, but -- I am now wondering if the memories of the rescued skulls not only indicate whether each child was "Inferior," "Mediocre," or "Prime," but if Dreaming Eyes was the one who had to pick.

There's nothing to back this idea up other than the feeling that when reading these memories she has of each kid and their ability when playing Hide and Seek, that she's giving the memories as answers to interview questions. Almost as if she was seen to be the cleverest little leader by the people keeping them there, and so they made *her* decide who was I, M, or P.

And if that's the case, how horrible for her. How horrible to look back and see what you unwittingly did as a kid.

So yeah, I am probably way off, but I wanted to post it because that's the impression I got from the child-skull stories.

[dreamerblue]

That's an interesting idea, krystyn, but it doesn't seem to fit with Dreaming Eyes discovering the three folders with all the pictures already organized on top of them...or her sending the other kids running in the direction of a dim light on the horizon in the hopes that they'd find safety/rescue there & her refusal to reveal to the She Monster where the other children were. But then, that is assuming that Essy did indeed go through the exact same situation as she is telling in her story...
