 		I got my key and business card today, return address "loki"

Key looks the same as the one upthread, number is 69. If it comes time to use these keys, I'm a totally n00b so will need some help from other NYC players Smile







Edit: Removed return address, which is apparently very out-of-game. -SpaceBass

I seem to get a different number than you. I tried multiple times. Are you sure about your number?

 		Card
Hi chelbelle,

Looking at the card and key pictures, I was wondering if you could work out what looks like words etched into the card, if so what does it say? What I believe two letters look as if they say NY... Only a guess tho.

 		noticed that too, it has to be intentional or odds are they would be randomly at some angle.

From the look of it, it looks like it's just the indention from when Loki wrote the address on the front of the envelope.

Also, I emailed Curran the address. Cool

 		Looking at the card ... sure enough there are some letters etched. It looks like a word that starts with C ad ends with "hN" ... but its hard to see. I think if i get a pencil tomorrow (I have no pencils anywhere!) and try to lightly rub tip on it, I'll be able to make it out, and see if its just residual from address.

Any other thoughts how to see? You guys seem to be good...

Looking at it, it looks to just be 'NY, NY, 10003' backwards and upside-down. Like Poyson said, it was probably from when he wrote your address on the envelope.

Also, @Poyson, you e-mailed Curran Loki's address? Are we so sure that's a wise decision? No offense to you (I probably would have done something worse)

I find that often the best way to find out what's going on is to poke and prod things with a sharp stick.

Nice catch by Finnengarlsh, looking at the position of the writing on the envelope again shows the card would have sat upside down and at just the right height to catch the bottom line as he wrote the address.

Also, the mail behind the envelope, was that inside the envelope, or is it just other mail?

Not unexpected.

Stick your thumb in the eye of the US government, and they're bound to stick back

we'll be back and better than ever!

Oddly, the site tag line at the top reads: "THI SITE IN RESTRICTED" just more typos? or something we should remember?

Also the word government is missing an N - just a typo or a clue?

 		For the card/envelop, it looks like it was just residual from the address, but upside down. It looks like Ny 100...C which is in my address, so I'm going to assume that is a pressed pen mistake.

For the envelope, it came all by itself, white plan envelope. In the pic the other stuff was just random mail... i was excited and snapped it. Smile
