 		i chose my cameras along the route to charles de gaul airport (or at least the closest to the main highway). I got 3 sightings. These are all pretty easy but it definitely is going to get harder as we go... good luck to the people that have already had a hard time!!! lol...

Midnight Eastern time is when the next mission is available each day.

 		I had a bit of insomnia so i decided to figure this one out. REAL easy

Not too subtle hint(i hope):

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
you're looking for a combination: Think Spaceballs minus the 6
And someone change the combination to my luggage Laughing


Edit: correct forms of your and you're FTW!

 		Mission 5
I got mission 5 done - the videos have the answer in them. But I screwed up the camera - when it said to choose a camera, there wasn't any to choose (blank map) so I refreshed the screen and then it was too late. So no new sightings for me. If anyone is having trouble, don't refresh the screen.

 		 My brain isn't working
And I've never seen spaceballs.
So, without having seen Spaceballs, and having viewed the youtube videos in full screen...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
and gathering what I think are the three numbers and having inputted them in any order, including extraneous words such as "floor" and "building" and etcetcetcetcetc...



Does anyone feel like giving this braindead insomniac a tad of help? I've been picking cams randomly since this really isn't my idea of a well-built flash game (but this isn't the proper place for that discussion xD)
*sigh*. Four days, two sightings... trying to solve this darn triple-video submission.
I can't even get far enough as I'd like in SWF decompiler, though.. I have found some juicy tidbits, regarding.. information transmission, but that's just for the geek-at-heart.

Anyone to help lil ol' orphy?


Immediate Post Edit: Holy Crap, the spaces DO count..... Damn. They're strict. XD

Five days, two sightings.

I won't even win a free soft drink.

At least I'm not on an airplane on the last day of the Da Vinci Code game. Boy, my feathers were ruffled that day.

OK, someone helped me in the past so here is another clue. You are on the right track but


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
There are 4 numbers that you will need for the combination lock to open the locker (submit them with spaces in between each number - ex. _ _ _ _ Watch the videos closely to get the 4 numbers

 		Actually, I had them with the spaces in between, didn't accept. So, last resort, I submitted with NO spaces, and bam. Got it. Wierd??

Thank you SO much for replying, heh.

Props to ya. Might need you for the next mission. <3 Wink


But the good thing is, playing another game after a long hiatus makes me feel like digging up my 2+ years work on a flash-based (true) ARG incorporating MUD-style gameplay/character development, spiffy graphics, and a nice mysql backend with a php interface, but I guess that's for another day.

 		That's odd. I managed to get the right password by typing in five numbers. Confused

Also, cameras don't work in Firefox at all, but I've somehow managed to get three sightings despite ignoring the entire broken camera thing until I loaded it up in IE on day 4. No doubt I'll be in the wrong country to win a prize though.

 		i answered it with spaces and it worked

and these missions are real easy as of right now... people are just thinking way too much about the answers. too much arg'n if u ask me!!

think simple (for now)

2 days, 6 hits!! (just find places that r related to past missions) the final mission in paris where we set 4 cameras, i caught him 3 out of 4 times. i just find the main place related to the mission and choose cameras all around the area.. seems to be working for me

 		 Time to bribe!
via paypal, of course.
I'm offering 25 cents via Arrow paypal for correct camera placement locations in the forthcoming days. Twisted Evil

I also used five numbers and seem to have gotten it right. Perhaps we won't know whether it's right till we get to the locker to try them? Confused

BTW, I use Firefox and have had no trouble using the cameras. I use Firefox 2.0.0.5 on my Windows XP Pro laptop. I do have a firewall I need to disable to let the Java work on the site, though. Good luck!

 		Yeah I haven't had trouble in firefox. 5 days, 8 Sightings! Camera has worked each time. When it says your answer is "Confirmed" hit continue then you should be able to place the cameras. You are unable to place cameras before hitting continue.

 		i've onyl had two sightings...Is that even possible? It's not like i select the same spot...

Anyways, I agree with Smooth. These missions are hella easy, and all of you guys (including me) have put too much thought into it!

Agreed, I was trying to use morse code for the light flashes, took those changed to numbers, and tried the entire sequence as a lat/long which showed me someplace in Chad. LOL!

Anyhow, I had a set of 3 numbers (5 digits), used spaces, and Firefox on an Intel Mac and it's worked fine for the sightings. I have 6 so far, my key has been to place them in areas you'd have to pass through for travel (to or from the city).
