Was just getting at whether is was data disc with an MP3, WAV or AIFF file like this looks to be, or if it was audio that had to be converted to one of those files. MP3 might have had some meta data, but that was a long shot and probably wouldn't have made sense in context.

As for the other packages, they differ in which employee they are associated with, maybe some personal information and purchase receipts. Did they all have credits too?

I just checked Korinthians and Trainjumpers photo stream. Trainjumper didn't post pics of the contents, just said it was the same with the exception of a razorkan tin and a receipt. Korinthians had an invoice from vandalay architecture with an address,

Do we know for sure that the audio file is the same on all the CDs? I didn't see any of the others specifically say they were but I'll go back and double-check.

The files are the same.
Sorry for being MIA the past few days. As I mentioned before, I'm out of town. Once I get home I'll catch up with the deciphering of this and see if there were any more differences in my bag.

PW Update: Tanner Wallace's patrol dossier contains a new 16 Oct. text file. Have attached the most relevant portion below. Note the "no external references".

Still crazy.

This is the only irregularity I can find that there are 7 of, but it's too far fetched when the other puzzles have been much tighter.

Ditto Bang Head There's diagonal patterns too: D7D, FSF, QGQ,. Wacko with this since yesterday. Was the reason 4 my post then about the "grid appearance and tangents".

@Distraction: My audio file was the same as everyone else's. I just listened to it, and it matches the grid perfectly.

I was looking over the grid and Tanner Wallace's new addition to his file, and looking for special characters just didn't click. So I went through and looked for letters/numbers that only made one appearance during the entire grid, and by God, I thought I had it.

But I only ended up with 6 characters. Bang Head

I hear two different voices in the audio. Or at least the cadence changes for specific letters/numbers. Could it be when we have a distinct voice change those are the ones we need to eliminate?

Wonder if there is info in Pennyworths bag that we could use? Damn, there is no way to find out either.



Hmm. I hadn't thought that the bag would've been left at a drop point. I DID send the contact, "Ryan" a text explaining why I couldn't be there. I never heard back from him. Could he still have the bag meant for me?
