Anyone plotted the coordinates to see if there are any commonalities between the drop locations that have went live thus far?

I just looked. New York and Atlanta were both near parks, Tampa was at a commons type area. Take that for what it's worth if you're out on foot today folks.

Other than the fact all the drop points are near notable landmarks of some sort (particular park, tourist attraction, important building), it seems that at least two of the three so far are located at or close to a sewer manhole cover. I don't think that the locations are random points in the cities, but places that are relatively accessible to most people via mass transit.

New Orleans:

937 Dauphine St
New Orleans, LA 70116

Also a few blocks from a large park.

Commonalities seem to be one locale every 20 minutes, and I was on the money that NO was next. SO thinking Minneapolis, Chicago, Austin next, and I am thinking Chicago is #1 pick.

Well the Lizard is a bit of a sewer dweller/traveler IIRC.

Sadly I'm about 30 minutes away from the drop. @RunItsAPirate may have gotten it >.<

I dunno, it'd be cool to see him jammin' down a Brooklyn street, Tony-Manero style.

Anyway, it seems that every location has a different "sequence," and putting them all together will point the way towards the next part of the ARG.

Javascript to support a media player now.

And it feels like the Trail has gone a bit cold right now.

The sequence

ID cards and scales and the sequence at which the locations were released.

There's a long string of numbers and letters on the IDs.
