Memory Warriors decoded the first Baconian msg confirming Dan's abduction & Interpol has found yet another one from Dan:

Double post for two Updates . Emma's is sad & the Warriors received a "Strange Message". Mousing under the entry reveals:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"mmcd". That could be the roman numeral for 2400 which I believe is the date of the Strangers' next return

Hi, Jeff
Emma! I saw your post... are things really that hopeless?
the word which fits my situation is: despodent
so here i sit...waiting for disaster to strike I don't think John is coming back!
I'm so sorry. I feel so helpless here... did you see that they'd managed to contact Dr. Schrieber, sort of?
yes, and i've been informed by inpector molinero that john is on the ship ...'
yes, I saw that... there has to be some way to fight back against these--whatever they are.
wait a minute...
thank God, so yo
?
She hung silent for a few minutes, then disconnected.

I emailed Emma asking her to check in after reading QA's post. I have heard nothing.
I also emailed MW asking about Emma and my fear she may have been the woman mentioned in the Dr.'s message and may have been taken by Mr. Hand. He responded:
Quote:
I really don't know what to tell you ... I'm afraid your speculation may be right! I've also observed that the ship is apparently leaving Earth's orbit and I received another transmission from Dr. Schreber which faded out.
I was then copied on an email from MW to the Inspector:
Quote:
I've just intercepted another transmission from Dr. Schreber at 1600h EST on the 21m band. Are you aware of this transmission? Should I send it to you?
I hope the Dr. has something good to say...

She's gone.
From the Interpol wiki:
Quote:
November 3rd: Today Emma Murdock was abducted. With her abduction all hope of capturing the Strangers was increasingly bleak as the ship in the sky was seen to start moving away from Earth. Someone intercepted a last transmission from Dr. Schreber (we know it was the last, because it faded near the end as the ship departed). The transmitted message is available here.

So that's... game over?
I kind of stopped following the game for a while because I got swamped with work/left behind. If this is the end (I have no sound) then I'm a little disappointed in how it all turned out - can someone transcribe the message, perhaps?

Apparently it's not over. I just got an email:
Quote:
Inspector Molinero -
I haven't cracked this code yet. It was sent to a member of the Memory Warriors group.
I know you have more resources than we do, could you please decode this in reference to case #7734-NI?

I decoded the message attacked, and emailed it back to them. It read:

OBSIDIAN ORDER IS STILL ON EARTH AND HAD A HAND IN RECENT EVENTS

[Trailhead] Walker Art Theft Today, I got a strange letter in the mail.
http://oi54.tinypic.com/116ozs4.jpg
And the adress on the envelope was a bit odd as well. Red and yellow, in a candy-like tone.
http://oi54.tinypic.com/2940vie.jpg
In case you can't read that, it spells 1770 L St NW
Washington D.C
~thebruce: linked to enormous images to stop stretching, attached images to post. Tinypic should really offer smaller sizes of uploaded pics too =P

Please do not embed large images directly into a post. Give people a link, or resize it. Not only does it stretch the forums, but it requires bandwidth to load the image with every page view.
thank you,

I got the same thing! So glad to finally know to which game this belongs! I wondered about the strangely inked return address, too.

What's even more curious is that The Walker Art Museum is in Minneapolis!

Using an actual reporters name from an actual existing 'paper'??
That's a bit offish isn't it?

1770 L St NW doesn't seem to be a real place either, Ive been on streetview looking around and the addresses only go up to 1750 on the side with the even numbers, it's a Ritz Camera shop, on the corner of L NWand 18th, so not really anything interesting there...
