to clear things up, that was the original list of axons, before they were grouped. Please search before posting, and if anything, this is the wrong thread. But thanks for trying.

17:55 emergency is now HOT.

I arrived about 45 minutes early to case the joint. The coordinates resolve to a residential neighborhood, and right on top of someone's house. I walked around the entire city block and checked both sides of the street in the process. On the opposite corner of the block, across the street was a little convenience store with 2 payphones out front that both accepted incoming calls and audibly rang (one on the north side, and one on the east). Unfortunately I would not be able to cover both of these. Then I took a walk in the other directions from the coords and located only one other possible phone. It was in the opposite direction as the other 2. I decided I would cover the 2, and maybe run back and forth between them listening for rings. Meanwhile I sat in my car and jotted notes about the phones.

Round about T-15 minutes I got out to head that way, and ran into another beekeeper. We were comparing notes when 2 more showed up. Hooray, we could cover every phone now!

I headed down to cover my initial 2 phones, and we ended up covering them both. I chose the one facing the city block that the coords pointed to. Lo and behold, it rang at the appointed time! I had to give the Operator password. After saying Operator, there was about a 5 second pause, and then I was told it was verified and the emergency WAV played. After passing the phone around to the rest of the mini-seattle crew, we parted ways.

While I was there, I went to scope out the other 2 nearby locations that are still cold. I will post my detailed findings shortly.

By the way, an odd coincidence at the "emergency" axon we activated. As you know, this WAV is about the police station burning down. The telephone that activated this axon was across the street from a fire department, and within one block of a police station. Have there been any other axons whose locations were relevant to the file they unlocked? Were the WAVs that took place in a restaurant activated by phones found in restaurants?

Which phone did you identify as the correct phone? I was at the AMC theaters on Friday.

See my original post for my findings.

I will try and be at this location later today.

So, if it's still cold, I plan on checking the Indianapolis axon Monday (school should get out in time). My school is...like...3 blocks away from it! Wednesday, at lunch, I went to the Burger King that is...in that shopping center probably at about 9:27. Figures. Didn't see a bunch of beekeepers, but then again, I didn't know it was there...or else I would have been there!

Anybody else planning on showing?

PS: The map points to it most likely being at Kinko's...that doesn't accept incoming calls. I just tried calling it..."disconnected." I'll be taking 2 others out there and we'll try everything we can!

one of the Hey_Soilder axons was inside an Waffle place (waffle hut / house) cant remember. I figured it was inside due to all the people on the boardwalk, it might of been impossible to get an open line on any outside payphone on the strip. (Virginia Beach)

About McBee..I found this:

"McBee Enterprises operates a McDonald's Restaurant franchise in West Bridgewater"

So that may be why it said McBee Enterprises on top of the receipt ..Also, this could have some meaning or it could be coincidence

Guilty activated!!!!!! AXON HOT!



Here's my story.


This morning at 8:00, my brother (we'll call him Redfox) departed for the Axon on his bike (about an 8 mile ride). We were going to meet up at the Axon around 10:30. Me and my other brother (we'll call him Bluejay) left at around 10:10. We arrived at the rendevous point with minutes to spare. To our horror, there was no payphone at rendevous point!

Plan B was to go to a community college down the road that Redfox had scouted earlier. It was the only other place with payphones in the area. With only about a minute to get there, we humped it over to college (I've never seen my brother ride his bike so fast, lol). We pulled up to the college with literally seconds to spare and saw a payphone out in the open. Me and Bluejay jumped out and ran to the payphone. I spotted Redfox about 30 feet down the road booking it to another payphone. A few seconds later, we heard Redfox bellowing out, "GUYS, GUYS, IT'S OVER HERE!!!". Without a second thought, I ran down to meet him, turned the corner, and saw telephone in hand. He had a big grin on his face, and it was obvious that he was listening to "The Operator". I jumped back up the steps and waved Bluejay over.

Redfox said the password, and after he was done listening, he said repeat. After Bluejay had listened, he handed the phone to me. I listened, and when prompted to "continue" or "repeat", said continue. This was followed by a woman saying "I love bees" over and over.

After that we hung around for a little bit, talking and feeling good about ourselves.

While Bluejay and Redfox talked, I started looking for the clues that almost ALWAYS connect the payphone to "ilovebees" or Halo. And that's when I saw it. In the corner of the ceiling, above the payphone, a nest of "Bees". A NEST of BEES!

That my friends is what I call a well thought out ARG.


MISSION SUCCESSFUL! Guilty 48.795015 -122.493547 IS HOT!



P.S. The rendevous that we originally thought to be the Axon was none other than Dairy QUEEN. Coincedence? Five minutes walk from the college? I don't think so.


We'll be hitting 48.738078 -122.486114 Emergency later today. Wish us luck.




Ghost, Redfox and Bluejay,

Out.



P.P.S. A BIG thanks to all you guys! We wouldn't have been able to do it without your help!
