 		If ARGs were like typical video games, the movie release would be delayed because no one showed up in Madrid. Smile

 		Success in Portland (as you can all see).
SpaceBass surveiled the (correctly spec'd) location, and was there first. I was next, then Misuba. A few others (Spork/bot was the only name I got; and two other guys) showed up before game control got annoyed at our waiting around. They called the phone themselves.

SpaceBass (taking instructions from the phone) led us on a short walk around the block (during which we were trailed by a game control operative) to the wallet. vectorb caught up with us during the walk.

We examined the wallet and its contents (pic from vectorb http://yfrog.com/326r2j), divvyed them up, and headed back to Ground Kontrol to use the blacklight on the TRON and Discs of TRON game cabinets on the trading cards. We met up with enaxor and Euchre there.

Pity us, Ground Kontrol doesn't serve beer until 5pm. Otherwise, it was a good op.

Laughing Lets hope that doesn't happen. This movie has been a long time coming.

Pics/details of what (if anything) showed up under the blacklight?

There's a Flynn Lives logo stamped onto the trading cards in UV ink. That's all it is, just a neato little easter egg Smile

 		Minn and Toronto just went, so looks like we'll probably have Madrid revealed after the next 30 min.

 		There were a lot of people at the L.A. drop. When I got there there were already like 4 or 5 guys walking away looking sad. I figured it would go fast but I was still surprised at how many people showed up. Didn't see the person who actually got it though.

Was it at that scooter place (at least the person wearing the Flynn Lives shirt)?

Yeah, I felt quite bad cos there were four other guys that showed up just as I picked up the phone and then walked away - it was only after that that Lex clocked we were supposed to ring the number written on the package.

 		Trying to look into arcades in Sydney. Galaxy World looks like a potential hit.
http://arcadeheroes.com/galaxy-world-sydney/

Aussie friend says that arcades aren't in the sorry state they are in the US, so perhaps there are many more possible locations. Do we have a Sydney contact?

Did you get a live person or recording when you rang? I'm wondering if it's the phone call that triggers the check on the site.

 		Be sure to check out the FLynn Lives Facebook Page. The Madrid timeline update was listed there as well.

UPDATE
Attention Operatives: Contact in Madrid will only be at location for next 2 hours. Spread the word. Let's get this done.


Just curious...care to share how you came by this information?


It's in yellow on the bottom left of the Flynn Lives page, just under the location listing.


D'oh, that's what I get for living on this board instead of spending some time looking at the actual site. Smile


They also have a facebook page, which they are updating in real time! There are lots of links to different people's photos and videos.

The contact in Madrid has left the building. Materials and codes have been re-distributed to other locations.

I didn't actually bother going inside to see the person since I was too late, but yes, it was the scooter place. Neat looking place too. Wish I had more time to browse around.
