I'm playing around with wart3.mov trying to see if perhaps by saying POS/NAV it's trying to point us to a specific part of that movie, but I'm coming up with nothing. Any ideas?

Those letters/numbers after POS/NAV look awfully like hex.
Maybe they're GPS coordinates.

Not hex. Hex ends at F. (and sometimes, like in HTML uses x)

Interesting... AR's post changed. That tag after <53LPH54> wasn't there when it first went up.

Are you sure? I went to the post as soon as the thread here went up. I copy/pasted the entire line. I'm 90% sure that it wasn't there.

53LPH54.6JG62.1740

I have a feeling there has to be SOMETHING in this string. If we take out the letters we have 5354.662.1740 which is one number too large to be a phone number (OOG: which, is probably a smart move by the PM's).

OT: 4 numbers, 3 numbers, 4 numbers...434...dyslexic 343? Razz

The letters are LPHG...not seeing anything there...ugh...brain too tired from work to think clearly on this one.

EDIT: The numbers 0-4 and 7 appear once, and 5 and 6 show up twice. Not seeing a math pattern to the number sequence...anyone have any ideas?

the only thing I notice is that every number 0-7 shows up, but nothing higher (throughout the whole post).

I think the numbers will be the easy part to figure out..it's the letters that baffle me.

Am I just totally out of it or does "rogue process" remind anyone else of ILB for some reason?

Yep. I believe in ILB, it referred to the splintered personality of a rampant AI. My memory isn't the greatest though.

I do not require charity or alms
But I did choose poverty
And other darkness too
Will you wait for me?


I'm copying and pasting this once again because the number 1 is followed by a series of dots that don't seem to appear in the other posts.

Does it seem that POS/NAV is giving a location? Prior to being quarantined?

Veins of Ice and Poison sounds poetic. Wink

What could that be?

Sounds like a Flood reference to me- And choosing poverty and darkness fits, too.

And yea, it sounds like a location, but the question is: to what? If it's the location of AR before it was quarantined, then maybe we can find a message he left for us or something there. Remember he said he'd leave something in a small place.

It almost looks like a jumbled IP address...

266.174.54.53

Doesn't lead to anything though.
