Yeah someone needed to rule out room 14 for us. None of them fit the time when she leaves and comes back a couple minutes later cause she's scared. Theres been too much spec on room 14 before we really checked it on all the logs.

150:1 - 150:12 aren't.

I think we should concentrate on 154 and 155.

Who's to say the room needs to be vacant? The Advisor could be living with someone (unlikely, given lifestyle the tone of the emails) or someone could have sneaked in while nobody was home to look through belongings, plant hidden recording devices, etc.

BriEnigma, you've certainly got a point about unauthorised entry/suspicious activity -- I think there's a comment about dots pausing outside rooms and not entering them on the other heat sensor thread. Does that count as suspicious? I haven't actually seen any evidence of dots entering other rooms, but it's definitely a possibility.

Perplexed, if you're running the java applet with the modified names file, you should be able to see whether the dot 'belongs' in the room or not. But why did you pick Day 16 2.23am? "1 day, 15 hours, and 43 minutes" before Day 17 6.13pm is Day 16 2.30am.

because she apparently returns at 2:30, so i gave her five minutes in case she was early and if shes not there at 2:23am then it means she hasnt returned yet.

on the subject of suspicious activity: what i meant by 'dont be pedantic' was that if the advisor lives with someone, or has visitors etc, it would be much more difficult to find out which room she is, sorry if i caused offense Wink

Is there anyway someone could hack/reprogram the heat sensor .jar files into a stand-alone that doesn't require a network connection?

I can't get mine to work. After entering "theadvisor/thelimelife" I get:
Unable to launch Heat Sensor System

I may be mistaken but I don't think that's been proven yet. It's highly likely though.

the 'rent payed at floor 157 rate' seems pretty conclusive to me...
