LOL

My guess is that Josh's father stayed here after he left FFSH and we're going to have to wait another couple of weeks to get the next note which Josh will retrieve

EDIT: Looks like MrFett and me think alike lol

Ok here's the scoop on the arrows on the map, they point to a plaque and monument outside of the Inn, it's a time capsule, here's the writting on it...

Edit: In the time I was writting this and getting info you guys posted it first, anyways here's a close up..

Just outside the Inn is the ID4 marker. It was placed here by the producers of the 1996 movie, "Independence Day" which was set in Area 51. The film was shot in Utah. Studio executives, members of the cast and dignitaries from the state of Nevada were among those who came to Rachel for the unveiling of the marker and ceremony naming Highway 375 as the "Extraterrestrial Highway". The inscription on the monument is illegible in the photo because its also illegible, even with my best glasses, in person. Such are the ravages of time.

OK this is a straight up weird a$$ tie-in. The clue for the alien movie arg is a monument marker from a different alien movie? I hope I am not forced to watch that thing again for clues, it was stinky...

I was thinking this A'le'inn looked familiar. Here's a link to an earlier thread in which it was involved:
http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=714378&search_id=646110861#714378

4 posts down - VanGoghX has a map link with pics from it.

I think I've seen it pop up a couple of times in the googillian searches I've done too.

The numbers are pointless - the same as with FFSH i think. What is sad - We found FFSH ...the stairs and everything and we weren't able to do anything with it and there will be probably same situation here ... we we'll read after two months that Josh went to the place and found something there...


you're probably right.

@Rocket
Thats quite a big coincidence. Maybe the PM's picked this because we were talking about it? (doubtful)
But again i say i dont think that these people will have any knowledge of the ARG so it may be best just to wait for Josh to find something, but it might be worth a call

Ely Nevada is a small town that houses an ICBM site. Worked there in the early 80's.

... AND while I think about it - Is this map from Josh's dad or Mysterio? Just in terms of IF it is the time capsule, that dates the recent events (hiding vitas relic) post at/post 1996??

So the pillar has a time capsule to be open in 2050. I wonder if there is a list of contents of the time capsule anywhere. Might have a clue.

I had always assumed that the maps were from Mysterio. Did anything come out of FFSH? Whatever was found might indicate who left it.

OK - I called and spoke to Connie who owns the A'le'inn with her mom Pat. She didn't know of any clues for us on the property. She asked her bartender and other staff. I think she even checked outside. She's another super nice person I've had the pleasure of talking to through the ARG. Anyhow there's nothing there at this time - but Connie said to tell the PM powers that be that she's up for being in on the game. She said they have a lot of fun geocaching activity there too. I told her about the ARG and to check it out at here. So she could be among us in the future.

Wrap up - guess we're not supposed to travel to the A'le'inn.
