bad, bad idea. That site is definitely not part of the game and NSFW.

Those are all on the same server, but that doesn't mean they are all from the same company/person. Those are all just hosted by the same company, most likely run by different entities.

Maybe it’s a dead end, and maybe that means something…

I’m goggled 6628 and found this page: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/6628

something about polypeptides.

And I remembered the video on the main wiki page with J.J. talking something about polypeptides. (on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpjVgF5JDq8)

My English is not well to analyse this connection. Maybe somebody does?

You are right, he did jokingly start of his TED talk with something about polypeptides which is kind of a weird coincidence, but I would say this is gettng to far out too fast to put much stock in it. To recap, the address from rocket poppeteers (a P.O. Box actually, so the empty field is probably a mistake to begin with, but maybe not) put into google led to an empty field. In satilite imagery there is a shape that looks like a key but is more likely a random truck with a weird shadow. It is on a road numbered 6628, which when googled leads to both a train in india, and a gene for a polypeptide on a scientific website which may be referring to Abrams' TED talk. I admit i is kind of weird, but also you can put in a lot of numbers (thousands) and get genes that code for polypeptide protiens. But good catch on that weird coincidence.

And, in the case of those mysterious "Poppeteer Gumballs"...maybe 'you can't chew just six', either: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=29508&start=240 Wink

Empty Field

With the Post Office Box number, would it not be considered as an "address". We are not looking for the box itself but the Post Office in Minot that contains the box. So its a matter of finding a post office in Minot. The address we have so far is the town and zip code which could be causing google Earth to show a empty field.

Quote:
The protein encoded by this gene is one of several nuclear proteins that are found in common among U1, U2, U4/U6, and U5 small ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs). These snRNPs are involved in pre-mRNA splicing, and the encoded protein may also play a role in pre-mRNA splicing or snRNP structure. Autoantibodies from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus frequently recognize epitopes on the encoded protein. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms (B and B') have been found for this gene.
I don't see the connection with his speech, though.

Thanx, yellowdart1.
OK, guys, maybe you right. Maybe the adress from coupon is not the next hint. I just want to sure, I try all options that came into my head.

The last one, that connected to adress and maps. I was think, maybe the location of adress on the field it’s not accident (how do I know how many people have acces to edit google maps). Maybe it’s hint on something. I discovered the map around the adress and found this lakes or something all around (in south main) the street adress. And it’s very like the frame from the teaser.

Please, don’t judge me strictly. I’m the first time playing and not watching the ARG, so that I could be run to extremes.

I was trying to catch up with the posts... and was looking through the maps, google and bing... trying to see what all you guys have posted about.
I you use bing map, and type in super8 for the search on the map... it gives you this:

Sumerset Ln, Minot Air Force Base, ND 58704

Thanks... but not really. I have now found where someone else has already posted about it.

-Sorry
