[Preston the Cyberdog]

[SPEC] Wav timeline summary of missing files

[msekolpsu]

Good post, I like the organization and the comments. It really organized things! Good job!

[pjv2]

by my count your speculating that we are missing at least 5 audio clips.

Great way of organizing things, Preston, though I don't agree with all of your ordering or assumptions.

Personally, I believe that there are no missing pieces. I think that we have three full stories.

Here's how I'd organize them:

Story 1

[[
Durga's arrival wreaks havoc in Jersey's computer (I'm not sure Durga=Melissa, though it's possible). Durga and Jersey talk, he asks her to find out about Jan.
Dizzy -> Escape -> Jersey -> Reflected -> Durga
]

[
Durga ghosts Jan, finds her in the car with her dad after her arrest
Law Abiding -> You Knew
]]

Story 2

[[
Blackout raises security level causing Jan to be detected when she otherwise would pass...
Blip -> Pillow -> Walkaway girl -> Hey Soldier
]

[
PQI -> Stupid Cop -> Yes or No -> Hey Dad -> Nervous
]

[
Emergency
]]

Long slow down again here so another end of act. Moving Law Abiding and You Knew to the above thread means that it's no longer problematic for Emergency to have a long ending. It's the end of this thread.

Story 3

[[
Hiro talks to Kamal on his date
Parasites -> Eyes
]

[
Beer -> Four goats
]

[
Our Hoodlums -> Much lifting
If there is a missing piece, it's between these two. The flow here's not great, but it's ok.
]

[
Meditape -> You could -> Say Something
Say something is the end of this conversation. Sophia asks if Kamal could ghost her, and he shows her that he can.
]

[
Guilty
]

[
Message saved
]

[
Tuna -> Hi Aiden
]]

I've described my reasoning on another thread, starting with [url=http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=62829#62829]

I think your timeline is right, but I really feel that the wavs law_abiding and you_knew should go after emergency. She talks about beating the quiz in the car, I think this is when they are leaving after causing the fire. Also, I think (and I may be reaching here) that Durga looking for Jan may have caused the blackout to find her on the base sensors (the guard did say if not for the power loss, they would not have found her) as if taking all the resources she could to locate her. This could also be the reason for the dead connection between the dater and his friend.

True, Durga is able to do some impressive things. Full audio probably wouldn't be out of her league.

Well, I'm definitely hoping for more messages, too. That 777 status bar has to mean something, right?

Actually, I was a fan of the theory that all the anomalies had the same cause until my other theory (that Durga gave Jersey the car conversation) made that impossible. Always hard when you have to pick one theory over another, and both seem to have merit.

No way of knowing right now what's right, but I just feel that they're giving things to us in chunks, and anything new we get will start some new chunks.

Personally, I hope we get something that connects Kamal and Sophia and that group to Jan. My instinct is that Jan's the key character because she's so unusual, but of course that's just wild spec at this point.

Oh, and Blaze - I still think that Law Abiding and You Knew come after Jan's interrogation, temporally at least. The context is just too clear on that. I just think they belong in a different thread - that when Jersey asks Durga to spy on Jan she happens to be in the car with her dad on the way home from the police station.

hmmm could be, but then is it possible that Jan breaking into the base is the first story up untill after the emergeny wav, than insert the Durga files, followed by the car and dating stories? But then that would leave the power outage unexplained... That would shift the main character of the story from Durga to Jan.

[SPEC] I'm wondering if there's even going to be 777 different axons. Maybe 777 just means "perfect" or "jackpot" like on a slot machine. Therefore when we activate all of the axons (the ones that work anyway) we get 777.

Although the progress bar right next to the 777 doesn't flow with that theory...
