A few new characters; employees in the Bubble Bop Cafe:
Quote:
By far the Bubble Bop is one of the most unique dining rooms you will ever experience. The fantastic food created by Man Doneco and the service from our team of waiters; our Maitre Dī Barny Raislup, Sommelier Li Geh'raty and Restaurant Manager Trane Sturon blend together to create an exceptional dining experience.

I'm in the process of trying to break down the .swf file used for their homepage interface (I could really use some help with it if anyone has more experience decompiling flash files). So far, I've got a partial list of the text initially displayed when the file is loaded:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Navigational Auto Regulator\rMedical Control Cell\rPersonnel Energy Matrix\rLife El
ectrical Generator\rMaintenance Baseline Cell\rCommand Control Beam\reat Reserve Ar
ray\rIonizing Dampening Terminal\rCommunication Bridge Pod\rAnti-matter Bulkhead Ha
tch\rInertial Photon Beam\rAcute Reserve Tie-In\rCommand Optical Polymer\rImpulse Wa
rp Array\rEnvironmental Beam Grid\rReduced Bridge Matrix\rAft Reaction Cloud\rInfini
te Operating Replicator\rNavigational Impulse Platform\rShuttlecraft Bridge Mode\rS
cience Energy Deflector\rAft Phaser Grid\rCommand Fusion Generator\rTactical Improb
ability Sensor\rVentral Photon Thruster\rNavigational Access Sensor\rOptional Acces
s Pod\rGuidance Control Bank\rScience Reserve Indicator\reat Dampening Hatch\rAft Ac
cess Mode\rPhased Dampening Device\rEmergency Baseline Tie-In\

I also noticed that, once you load the "menu" (where it displays "links" to the Cafe, Orbtanicals, etc.), if you watch long enough, a little red dot orbits the menu. It moves too fast for me to see if it's clickable or not, but see if you can catch it.

BTW, I think it's hilarious that they offer the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster on the cocktail list! Laughing
I love seeing references to the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy.

Funny anagrams for Bubble Bop staff:
Maitre Dī Barny Raislup = "Binary Pulsar"
Sommelier Li Geh'raty = "Lightyear"
Manager Trane Sturon = "Neutron Star"

And I guess the cook, Man Doneco could be "Moondance"

Nothing appears to be hidden in the flash. I did find out what was up with that initial text that scrolls pass.

It's a randomly generated bit that changes each time it's loaded. Each line consists of 3 words from three different arrays.

Array One wrote:
Acute, Aft, Anti-matter, Bipolar, Cargo, Command, Communication, Computer, Deuterium, Dorsal, Emergency, Engineering, Environmental, Flight, Fore, Guidance, eat, Impulse, Increased, Inertial, Infinite, Ionizing, Isolinear, Lateral, Linear, Matter, Medical, Navigational, Optical, Optimal, Optional, Personal, Personnel, Phased, Reduced, Science, Ship's, Shuttlecraft, Structural, Subspace, Transporter, Ventral, Auto, Maintenance, Tactical, Life, Emergency


Array Two wrote:
Propulsion, Dissipation, Sensor, Improbability, Buffer, Graviton, Replicator, Matter, Anti-matter, Organic, Power, Silicon, Holographic, Transient, Integrity, Plasma, Fusion, Control, Access, Auto, Destruct, Isolinear, Transwarp, Energy, Medical, Environmental, Coil, Impulse, Warp, Phaser, Operating, Photon, Deflector, Integrity, Control, Bridge, Dampening, Display, Beam, Dampening, Baseline, Input, Optical, Reaction, Electrical, Reserve, Bulkhead


Array Three wrote:
Chamber, Interface, Coil, Polymer, Biosphere, Platform, Thruster, Deflector, Replicator, Tricorder, Operation, Array, Matrix, Grid, Sensor, Mode, Panel, Storage, Conduit, Pod, Hatch, Regulator, Display, Inverter, Spectrum, Generator, Cloud, Field, Terminal, Module, Procedure, System, Diagnostic, Device, Beam, Probe, Bank, Tie-In, Facility, Bay, Indicator, Cell, Plate, Thruster, Nacelle, Vent, Console


The little red flashy thingy appears to be just that: a little red flashy thingy.

Indeed. I also decompiled the flash file and as far as I can tell you can't click on the red dot. Dissappointing hunh? Another site that has a password protected area as well. (Click on ON Site at the begining)

I have just one question.

Why 'eat'?

Yeah, having the word "eat" in the list is weird; it's the one word that doesn't seem to have much relation to the others. It's also the only one that's not capitalized. Confused
I also didn't see a way to enter a password into the "password protected" area (the on-site button); or does the page detect where you are clicking from to determine if you are "on-site" or not?

Is it possible, that this is just a typo? Maybe it should have been 'Heat', which is not mentioned in the lists.

I'm a bit upset that the last one doesn't contain the word "Drive." Now the best you get is "infinite improbability device" Sad
