Wow! Good find! So I'm taking the "Memo" column to mean that The Advisor lives on level 157, then?

So much for a roll, I'm going on holiday to weird places with not much internet access for a week. If anyone from tech support rings, tell them I'm out walking in the forest.

And car hire? Is Heathcote in PXC, or further afield? I guess this means she's got out of town...

interesting to see that she made a fairly big withdrawel, maybe she still has the money squirrelled away somewhere. also a visit to the academy, returning to the scene of the crime? or is this supposed to be before the theft or what? (ah never mind, just seen, its 4-10 jan 267)
do you think she took them up on the offer of the free opera tickets?

rach =)

Pineapple is the MVP of the week!

Perhaps the Advisor took a guided tour of the catacombs to scope the place out. The tours are mentioned on the Academy site and by Scarlett, I believe. No mention anywhere what the cost is though...

....Whoa - I had a moment of false clarity when I thought that perhaps Isador Levenay was the Advisor (I was seeing Isador but mistakenly reading the feminine Isadora) because I saw "AN EELY ADVISOR" anagramed in ISADOR LEVENAY ....anagrams are too dangerous....

EDIT To add: She spent 3199 PCL at Heathcote Plants. If my conversion is correct that's over $300 or over 600 Pounds on plants? Also Heathcote Corp owns the Sentinel...

And it says she purchased a "conundra" for 2,645 lecks. What could this possibly be?

Conundra seems to be a posh dance club. It's mentioned a few tymes in the sentinal and there's a wiki-page on it.

Say, when I see "Heathcote Plants", I think of more industrial plants than green growing ones. I wonder, casually, if that PLC 3199 purchase was fFor something like a neural inhibitor.

Well, I considered that as well but I think in most cases those sort of organizations would be named, "Heathcote Manufacturing" or "Heathcote Fabricators" or "Heathcote Perplexing Chemicals" etc. I'm certainly no expert on industrial manufacturing nomenclature but I can't think of any high profile manufacturing companies that are called "XYZ Plants" off-hand.

When I keep thinking about "Heathcote [industrial] Plants" it seems to imply as if they would sell the actual manufacturing plants (or maybe construct them) - neither of which will cost that little. Smile

Why?

The question is, why would Rudon be an obvious password for TA to give Pietro?

It seems like we've just been taking every new word and trying it everywhere that a password is needed, but there must be some logic to it, surely?

The Techie Mentioned something to Pineapple that people need to quit using things like Their favorite forest or things like that for passwords because that'd make them easier to crack. And just the day before the Sentinal was updated and the futures mentioned "Rudon Forest". TA was talking about how she was going to the forest and being it was the first one we heard of it would seem that's the one that would make sense.
