Few pictures and none that could mean anything...
I checked her viewed list and neither Dave or Jades known aliases have visited her page.. so shes OOG

BTW, strange_muse at Libthing accepted my friend invite but has made no comments to me or to boards...

 		What about....
flickr? Photos/strangemuse ?

There is flickr email, but I don't see any blogs...so not sure how that would be to communicate.

I found one guy that has already posted Sunday's pictures from Talledaga. (with D. Ragan's smashed car from sunday)

There is a strange_muse and strangemuse, that appears to be same person. (have same photos). Cant remember, but seems like same pictures strangemuse from dev.art has.

I don't have any more ideas at the moment.

 		More Random thoughts
strange muses (greece) #6 (david) photos/pictures? (michelangelo)

RT said "I should visit the strange muses" (go to greece?) for inspiration.

Statue of David is in front of Palazzo Vecchio, the town hall. in Florence?

I donno, just thought I'd try a different direction....but it is not helping me find any blogs/journals.

 		maybe muse is the starting point and #6 is to help us pick which muse. I was thinking about "International" pointing us to some non-US iste, or to an island--they have those in greece, right. Anyway, I was thinking, "which muse is #6" and trying different sortings--actually just one: alphabetical. Then I noticed something: a Dr. Who anthology of 9 stories about muses (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_Trips:_The_Muses). I've not really followed up on it, and I doubt I will have time to do so tonight. I also found (via a wiki disambiguation page, not very clever of me) a variety of other meanings, though I doubt any are of much worth.

 		I've moved this thread into the CF with Potentials forum, so you can go ahead and create more threads to discuss seperate aspects of the game. Seeing that this thread iss already 77 pages, it might be smart to do so Wink If you do, please tag the threads with [TCJ] so they can be distinguished from the other games that are played here.

Enjoy!

 		...........
What a great idea! <<sarcasm>>

Wait for everyone to drop out, and nothing happening, to make it on the list .... sorry for my lack of enthusiasum, but if this had been moved when there was interest, it may have actually had a following. I hope a few will wade thru the mess, and become interested again.

Like Surf said, maybe phase two is starting now....we can only hope.

All previous info is here: http://coffeebean36.wordpress.com

We could use a few (a LOT) more people to help out with solving riddles.

Collateral_File_12 : audio 7 - ???
anyone see the new collateral file?

I had to play it at blip--coudn't get the other to play.

I couldn't make out the other half of the conversation entirely, but it seems more or less audible. Need to take another crack at it with headphones.

Transcribed...99% confident it's accurate except where otherwise noted
Direct link to collateral file

Quote:
Julian Thalberg: This is Julian.
Claudia Reece: Julian, it's me, can you talk?
J: Yeah, I'm in my car. I just pulled in to get some coffee. What's up?
C: Gotta shut down. [text appears @ 00:16]
J: What? Everything?
C: No. Just you.
J: Is this line OK?
C: Yes. We've got everything on this. We need to let you know now.
J: What happened?
C: We've got a leak. Maybe on the inside. Someone's gotten their hands on project files. I think someone's involved in that.
J: You've got project files in the clear?
C: No. We don't think so. Not in the open, we know they've been seen. We know your name's in there somewhere because it's on some kid's website. And we know there's files of recordings [unintelligible: of your mic(?)].
J: You've got to be kidding.
C: You don't know how badly I wish I was. The site I mentioned has your name, your former rank, even your social security number.
J: Oh for God's sake, Claudia, how'd this happen?
C: We still don't know. The person who's doing this said he's one of us. I don't think so. We've gone through everyone twice.
J: If someone's been able to get your stuff, how do you know they're not getting this conversation?
C: We're not monitoring you anymore. We shut down until we figure out how to get you back into the project. There will be no record of this conversation of any type. From what we've been able to gather, only your files have been snatched, so we're not creating any more until we get to the bottom of this. [more text @ 01:29]
J: So you've shut down the implant.
C: No, there's actually no way to do that. But we're not listening and there's no way anyone else can.
J: And there's no way to salvage this.
C: Not with you. Not as yourself. The rest of the project is OK as far as we can tell. But there's no way we can put you in front of [Cornell(?)] now.
J: So let me be clear: you do not want me to move in?
C: No. We do not want you as a [unintelligible] in the house. We're currently laying the ground work so someone else can go after Cornell so we can use the house when the time comes.
J: OK, so do you want me to come in?
C: No. We want you to stay in the field. First thing is to complete scrub yourself. [unintelligible] let you disappear. So we're not monitoring you, you'll have to fall back on standard tradecraft. You'll have to contact me minimal. As a matter of fact, we prefer no contact with the gallery unless it's absolutely necessary for your new assignment.
J: For my new assignment. What's that?
C: We want you to find the sonuvabitch that's stealing our files. [more text @ 02:43]
J: Alright, what do you have on him?
C: Nothing. There's been a lot of collateral. Weird groups involved in weird ways. Anyway, I'm sending you everything we've got so far. You'll have it by tomorrow.
J: OK. I'll review it, then we'll need to meet for a brief back. After that, I'll take it on my own.
C: Fine. Use the protocol from [unintelligible...next week (?)]. See you there.
J: OK.

Locations are in Tampa? Easter Egg?

Initial spec: Well, we still don't know who RT is. Apparently he's either really good at covering his tracks or he doesn't work at OIS. He or his source for this apparently has even better resources than OIS because they were able to intercept this communication; Claudia seemed to think that was impossible.

The art heist may may not have been Thalberg. Rather, he may have been trying to track down the thieves at the gallery (i.e. Cornell).

This was recorded after the 6/25/07 transcribed conversation between Claudia and John Green. Claudia did not know about our group until John told her about "gamers". She only could have told Julian about us, the "weird group," after that point. So this is most likely a direct response to RoyalThames's Twittering.
