SPEC: Rectangle Trip One

[SpaceBass]

Now if we flip the ignition card over, we see the symbols that are on the fronts of the data_1 and data_2 cards.



The symbol for data_1 is labeled "base sequence" and the symbol for data_2 is labeled "patterns." Note also that the patterns symbol is really just four of the base sequences symbols overlayed on top of each other, one pointing to each of the four compass points (NESW).

So let's take a look at the base sequence and patterns, flipping data_1 (below left) and data_2 (below right) over.



The base sequence card (data_1) has a 3x4 grid, with all but the upper-rightmost square containing one or two black rectangles or squares, rotated in some cases.

The patterns card (data_2) has a column of five squares, each with one or more numbers around the sides. From top to bottom they are numbered as follows (side indicated by compass direction):

Square 1: 1S, 2W, 3N, 4E
Square 2: 5S, 6W
Square 3: 7S, 8W, 9N, 10E
Square 4: 11S, 12W, 13N, 14E
Square 5: 15S

No clue yet what the stuff inside the squares means.

The rectangle wafers are fairly unilluminating. They are thinner than the trip cards and somewhat translucent when held up to the light. The printing on the back and front is such that, when held up to the light, the symbols on the front and back overlap, with the rectangle at the top being situated within the black-bordered hexagon and the pentagon at the bottom being situated within the red hexagon. I'm not sure if this is intentional.

Funny. I'm not feeling transported by all of this.

Interesting thread over at redkore:

The spec is that the whole "trip" idea is actually just the process of people's speculation, trying to figure it all out, comparing it to the Publius Enigma (hmm, where have I heard that before). The trip is what it turns out to be.

Apparently, Dan from RedKore originally replied, "Damn. You figured it out," and then edited hist post later to just say "Damn."

All I can say is, if this turns out to just be some new agey crap, I'm gonna kick some *ss. Too much squirrely crap going on for my taste. For those of you who haven't been in the #unfiction chat channel, you probably don't know that Dan even stopped by there a couple of times, playing games with folks who were there.

I don't think the emperor is wearing any clothes.

Well, at least I got a magnet for my fridge outta the deal.
