So this seems to be at least the 3rd time the #3 puzzle grid has been sent out, even after we have the puzzle "solved."

Looking back through the thread, it seems to me that we never definitively solved grid #3. Instead, we just assumed that the right answer had to give us an "E" in order to get The Slack Farm.

But what if that's wrong, and we're still getting #3 because we need to figure out what TH_ is (other than 'the') in order to get the password or something. Maybe?? It's a stretch, but I just find it odd that we are still receiving #3 rather than, say, #10, which we haven't gotten at all...

Also, weren't there supposed to be handwritten dates in the pages of that magazine? Do we know what they are?

Oh dear, I think I missed something, but where did these new items come from?

[UPDATE] MHC News March 6th

Closing the deal - Tue, March 6, 2007
Matt made it down to Florida okay, although I'm still anxiously waiting to hear back from him about his meeting with Nate Shiffer. I really want to know what else is in those restricted directories on M-A-R-A (unless someone out there has figured out more passwords in the mean time.) I've been looking at that damn Plum Island movie so much the past few days, it's starting to give me nightmares.

And that creepy one armed crytoid picture links to piny video that's already been seen.

The book I got in the mail yesterday
Dates written in the book

I found two dates written in the book. One of the dates is written in ink pen, while the other is written in pencil.

The date in ink is : July 25, 1968.
The date written in pencil just plainly says: 3-23-69.

I'm not sure whether or not the second set of numbers is a date or perhaps a combination to a lock of some kind.

Also there is a number one written on the 'B' of Beyond. That number is also written in ink.

If i find anymore numbers I'll post them here.

It looks like Sun-Yi has been kidnapped by the green-jacket guy.

Plus, Derek Matt & Sun-yi seem oddly oblivious to the videographer...

EDIT: adding direct links

A Day in the Park #1: Matt finds Derek and they start looking for Sun-Yi
A Day in the Park #2: Matt and Derek searching through the woods
A Day in the Park #3: Matt and Derek searching through the woods
A Day in the Park #4: Matt and Derek searching through the woods
A Day in the Park #5: Matt and Derek searching.. wait for it... around some rocks
A Day in the Park #6: Sun-Yi huddled by some rocks on the phone with Derek, saying that she's being followed
A Day in the Park #7: Sun-Yi huddled, fiddling with her phone (GPS?)
A Day in the Park #8: Sun-Yi huddled, her phone rings, she does something and puts it away
A Day in the Park #9: Sun-Yi in the grip of the man in the green jacket, hands over her mouth

You n me both, Jas0n! I didn't even know a meeting had been set up then I check back in and all this!!!

Maybe they were brainwashed by the bad guys. Or, maybe the bad guys made the post. Or maybe they overpowered the bad guys and kicked b*tt!

I don't know if this really explains what happens very well, but this is what Derek has to say:

Quote:
Yeah, that was really him. Sorry it took a while to update you. Honestly we were all watching the videos CryptidTruth put on You Tube, because it's the first we'd seen them. I'd wish I'd been paying more attention to the people right around me then but I was so focused on Sun-Yi I didn't see him filming, even when he was apparently close to me. I can only think he was using a hidden camera or something but whatever, that's not what you want to hear about I know.

We're still not sure if the guy in the green coat was who Sun-Yi was supposed to meet or not, but we think he was, based on something we found in his coat. You know that he grabbed Sun-Yi from behind, after she had run from him when she first saw him there and he tried to grab her. Matt and I were looking for her but couldn't find her but somehow the person filming the videos, who I have to think is CryptidTruth, did.

And yeah, he watched for a little while when the guy first grabbed Sun-Yi, but then he saved her. He jumped the guy and wrestled him to the ground. The creep only got away because his coat came loose, leaving Sun-Yi's rescuer holding only the damn green jacket. But Sun-Yi was OK.

Inside the coat's pockets we found a couple of things. Bear with me if it takes a bit to post pictures of them, but you'll understand when you see them.

Could the green coat man be behind the death of Nate? Could the stuff in his pocket come from Nate? Whoa!

[Update] News - March 9

No day in the park - Fri, March 9, 2007

Well, if you've seen Cyptidtruth's videos and listened to Sun-Yi's audio diary, there's not really much I can add to yesterday's story. I'm just glad Sun-Yi's okay, if a bit wiped out still and in need of some TLC. And Amie's gonna need a lot of TLC. She and Matt have actually gotten a lot closer lately, both having lost a parent. I feel terrible for Amie, but I don't know if I can really understand the loss she's gone through the way Matt can.

I think it was Cryptidtruth who saved Sun-Yi from the Green Coat Guy, although I'm still not sure who the hell he is, or why he's involved in all this.

Cryptidtruth, you want to finally come clean? We'd all appreciate it.

[UPDATE] Derek mopes and I'm confused

Derek posted a new blog entry on MHC:

Quote:
Spring Broke - Tue, March 13, 2007
Spring Break. Yippee. Should I do a keg stand first, or enter a wet t-shirt contest? For the first time in a long time, I'm really not sure what to do. And as you may have surmised lately, I've been at an uncharacteristic loss for words.

Poor Sun-Yi.

DanteIL decoded the message in Green Coat Guy's pocket, which was already a heavy blow, just realizing that Sun-Yi's involvement went way deeper than just some obsessed MySpacer. Then I saw this. I can't even imagine what she's feeling right now. I think she's still in shock.

It kills me that this evil son of a bitch Genero is still out there somewhere. I hate just waiting, feeling powerless. Amie seems to have accepted Jon's fate and is ready to move on with her life, so why can't I? I never even liked the guy to begin with, and I actually feel like I'm going through the classic stages of grief over him. Mostly the anger stage, though.

It feels weird packing up and leaving NYC, even if it's just for a few days. Feels like there's so much left undone. Just found out today that this Scott Johnston guy may be more than just a grad student combing libraries and tapping away at a computer. It's really hitting me that in a matter of weeks, I'll be packing up and leaving this dorm for good. For all that's happened to her, at least Amie seems to have a place where she belongs. I know her family will welcome her back with open arms, even though I can tell she's terrified and wants me to come back to PA with her. Sun-Yi's going home to a different family than she left at the beginning of the fall semester. Sure, they'll look and sound the same, but if what Cryptidtruth says is true, they may as well be strangers. Can I in good conscience let her get on a train alone and go home to face that? Can I let Matt go home alone to an empty house full of memories?

If this Genero is such a great geneticist, maybe he knows some way I could clone myself and grow two more of me overnight, so I could be with all my friends at once. Cryptidtruth, could you find out for me? Just add water, like Sea Monkeys. But I know I can't, just like I know Sea Monkeys don't really wear hats and do tricks, X-ray specs can't really see through women's dresses, and I'm probably not going to get that check from the Nigerian Prince. Not every story has a happy ending.

[UPDATE] Sun-Yi leaves a note for Derek and Matt- March 16th
She's leaving...there's something she must do.

Monster still at large - Fri, March 16, 2007

Sun-Yi is gone. I got up this morning and found this note:

Derek and Matt,

I know how much you guys like having envelopes slipped under your door, so here ya go. Sorry there are no puzzles. There is something that I have to do, so I'm leaving for a little while. I thought if I told you guys in person, you'd try to talk me out of it. And let's face it, you both can be pretty persuasive. But my mind is made up. I'll be back soon, so don't worry about me.

-Sun-Yi

PS: I love you, too.


While it's good to see that Sun-Yi hasn't lost her sense of humor, even in the face of her unspeakable tragedy, HOW CAN I NOT WORRY? Is she kidding me? I'm sure by now you've all seen Cryptidtruth's Hunting a Monster post...

Genero still has assistance in many locations so until he is dealt with, the danger remains both very real and very close.

Sun-Yi, if you are reading this, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE call us!


(When the time comes that the mhc forums are no more, Hunting a Monster links to this.)
