https://twitter.com/carlsjr just tweeted

Check out what Spidey did to Glendale, CA @CarlsJr! Come see it at 424 N. Los Feliz. Prizes, pix & games 2-4pm today. http://t.co/8NV1QZVi

Most likely what Mark of the Spider-man tweeted about yesterday.

I've also found out about Carl's Jr./Spidey events in Houston on June 5th and Sacramento June 19th.

Assuming each column says the same thing all the way down, I've included a picture of what each column of dots and dashes currently looks like when they are combined. I'll update as necessary.

MovieViralDan at the bottom of the 3rd game page there was an octal to decimal code that had to be run through twice.


Yeah that's what I ended up with, looks like hangman now.

It's weird how they finally put the copyright stuff at the bottom of the pages.

Got the font figured out!

OK - so being the impatient person I am I messed around with some fonts to find one that would work for us. It's slow progress but so far I have something happening on 21 JUNE in the following cities:
Code:
NEW YORK CITY NY
BOSTON MA
??????????
CHICAGO IL
WASHINGTON DC
ATLANTA GA
??????????
??????????
SAN FRAN?ISCO CA
LOS ANGELES CA

I'll work on the rest of it until I get too sleepy to continue.

Decoding progress...

Here is the image so far with most letters identified already. I could not find any complete words in the section on the right. They could be numbers or non-word text. We will have to wait to see what gets added over time. Note that the mis-spelling of SAN FRANCISCO is not mine. Wink
EDIT to add youngpaddy1's and BitGamer's comments.

Is that all guess work? If so that's some damn good guessing

Does the second line down from the top say ACCOUNT OPEN ?

guestuser17, awesome guesswork. Smile

using a bit of pattern recognition, the same dot-dash sequences can carry over to the next rows.

dependent on spacing as well as dot & dash pattern, one might even consider creating a key of possibilities,

for example:

... could be an 'N'.

words and phrases can be added to the key, depending on how often they recur and to context, eg. 'flight' and 'june'

Here you go.... Smile There are always 2 'pixels' between letters. I have not tried numbers except 1 and 2 so far.

I wasn't sure on that one either. It looks like we have a few weeks to get it though. Smile
