^ I wish I could! Chicago is one of the few "ARG Hotspots" that I can actually get to somewhat easily (just a 3-4 hour drive), but I have marching band. Sad

Yeah, I'd love to, but starting at 5 is a little inconvenient for those of us who are working and would have to get into the city first. I'd barely make it in by 8. Sad

Varin, I think at least four people from the discussion board have said that they plan to go, each bringing a guest makes eight. There's speculation that there's dancing involved, so even if you're not the first to arrive and get the clue item, it might still be fun. (In my romantic imagination, I envision some turn of the century waltz in a grand ballroom... but that's just me. Smile

)
GameTeam (the PMs) have posted this update about tonight's event:

They are actually underlined onmy board as well, which is not surprising, my mom pointed it out to me when i showed her after getting back from the drop. They kida have likea line cut under them, or grooved into the wood i guess would be a better term.

Thanks, Rosemarie_Weissenfeld! Would you mind confirming which letters are underscored?

Btw, is there a chat room set up for this campaign?

No chat, I think someone is gonna set up a tinychat for tonight, and the letters that are underlined are "ASI RCAGES"

I was reviewing the intro movie and noticed some words written on the toolbox (0:17-0:19). I tweaked the screen shot to enhance readability. Probably meaningless, but worth highlighting.

This rock formation strikes me as a significant landmark in the intro video. You note that the scene directly before this one, the three people are looking through a range finding/surveying device on a tripod close to sunset, and one is pointing off into the distance. The very next scene is of the particular rock formation in broad daylight, then it cuts back to them walking as the sun sets. To me it seems as if this was intentional.

I am really late to the party, but this looks interesting.
