Can someone do some major wiki editing with all of this info?

Also Im sure the ice fly couldn't do anything because it was frozen.


It was thawing though, if you notice there was a bit of melted water sloshing around in the bottom of the container.... It makes me think of the way flies sort of suspend if they are too cold. I know it sounds silly, but I used to work in a floral department... I was always rescuing the flies and sometimes ladybugs that got stuck in the refrigerated display. They looked dead, but if I scooped them up and put them outside they would fly off after thawing for a couple of seconds. Maybe being a sort of bug our ice fly might have similar sort of traits?


It could be some sort of intrinsic thing the Icefly does, like in the commercial.

so what a previous poster said hand signs, look at every 1 for a sign language and then post them all, im guessing there will be a word for each section? or maybe we need to finish em all for a phrase?

Another reason why I think Will is dead: caption under the image on /decoy.

He didn't and paid for this.

The driver of the truck on 21 & 22 is Will. The other driver on 29 was driving a dozer. I think we lost Will in that fall.


hm.. if you look at the 2nd frame on page 29 the guy kind of looks like Will, i think. A lot can happen between 7 log files. I guess we'll find out on Mon

Look at the vehicles. Unless developers didn't pay attention to details (which I doubt) they are different. but maybe Bill changed a vehicle? Also, on log 31 if you look at the screen it looks like a guy dives into the water. But outside he's falling down (or maybe this is an ice fly?).

The diving dude is from one of the older 5 gum commercials. Forget which one. Actually, maybe it was a woman... but whatever, has to do with the tests Traelek are running, not Will's fate I believe.

The one diving is actually the solstice commercial with a really hot chick. She dives into like a mountain.

We should point out that the whole story starts in 1995 (date on the magazine is September 2010). And the fire occurs in February 1996, after Bobbi got into the institute. So, it's logical to suggest that it was their house that got burnt down and she knew about. Her family moved and for some reason they couldn't contact her and tell her where. Or maybe they felt Bobbi was somehow responsible for the fire and simply tried to stay away. That's why she expected letters to come back to her.

The newspaper also said that their was an argument between the parents and their boy. Do you think Bobbi has a brother? :O

i posted in another thread but it seems to make sense here too, as revealed in the new log file the icefly is apparently found in siberia, this is also a possible location for the test facility since it seems to have the same snowy mountainous setting from the outside when entering facility 1.

Yeah, I missed the "he" part. In this case it's possible that since the game began in 2011 then 15 years ago was 1996 and they just gave us a "past issue" of the magazine. Then it could be E's house that got burned. It's summer time according to the pictures (unless this is south) and that house burned in February.

About the boy. If you have a dog and you ever had to take it to a Vet you would know that they put it on record by the dog's first name AND your family's last name. Therefore, it's possible that the boy's last name is McGee. McGee - "E".

That's possible, Bobbi's a lip reader, so if wasn't looking at her when they first met, all she might have caught was the 'ee, then adopted it as his nickname.

This stuff may already be covered, but in addition to the /decoy golden ring on page 21, that same page also refers to Taymyr from /aftermath.

That makes sense since Will finds that ring there.
