 		All right, guys. I'm here from the Cloverfield forum (Hey, Ecks). I'm in. I'm hoping for another game like the first whysoserious, or just some freaking awesome reveal of Harvey Dent.

See you guys at midnight.

 		Sorry about the previous post by the Guest. That was me. Forgot to log in.

Anyway,

HOLY CRAP!! ANOTHER GAME!!! And freaking NOBODY is online! GAH!!!

Well, I think we can safely assume that this one is gonna take a few days.

It looks like instructions leading to different places in different cities all around the country. You have to go to the places, take pictures of what you find there, and email them to the J-man. But there's no email address that I can see. It says not to start until morning. Maybe we'll get an address then. Ten bucks says this is gonna get us the trailer that the fans saw at that one convention whose name I can't remember (Was it WizardCon or something like that?), or something even cooler *cough*Two-Face*cough*

I'm the first guy here to post about this. I feel so special.

 		All RIGHT, Tally-Ho! I may or may not be able to get to Chicago by the weekend. But those will probably all have been found by then.

Can't wait to see what this is!

EDIT: Hey, does anyone see an email address? I can't find one.

 		Hell, the email address might BE the answer to this riddle.

 		Another game - last time it went so fast - it was over quick.
might be able to get someone to check out Chicago - depending on where the clue is.

 		Hello all.

Been lurking for a while, this brought me out. I will check San Francisco in the morning per instructions. I will take my camera and see what I can find out. Look for a report tomorrow.

 		Locations and clues are up on thebruce's Wiki (or at least most of them...I'm working on it)

http://batman.wikibruce.com/48_locations

From the clues, each location probably yields one letter. The Joker's letter seems to indicate we'll find out the email address to send the pictures to by putting together the 48 letters. Either that, or we're gonna need to do some cut-and-paste work with the small images associated with each city. However, those images look like cut-outs from the objects we're supposed to find (see Las Vegas for an example)

"Hey, clowns! Ready to do what you're told? First, don't start before daylight. With a police force this corrupt, it's not safe to be out at night, and anyway, you won't be able to see the things you want to find.
Follow all of my directions to the letter and send photos of what you find.

I'll make it worth your while, I promise - for what that's worth...

 		Portland
So I saw that the page says not to do anything until daylight but, well, fuck that.

A little birdie pointed me to the Portland clue...

Quote:
If you have too many Bacon Maple Bars, you might
have trouble fitting into some of the eclectic num-
bers on display nearby.

Lured by the shimmer of bronze and gold, your goal
is circled.


...which starts off with a clear reference to Voodoo Doughnut. And really, who the hell goes to Voodoo during the day?! I ask you.

Not me.



There are a few bars and theaters and stuff in the area of Voodoo but the next line seems to be a completely sexist reference to a clothing shop. Across Burnside is the United Clothing Co. but they don't seem to have any display windows. How about the other direction?



Voodoo is less than half a block from the corner. What's that across the street?



Hmm, a clothing shop with a bunch of gaudy, sparkly dresses!



I'm guessing the circle reference meant this.



[WILD SPEC]: We're looking for letters (or representations of letters, i.e. an eye for an 'I') that spell out a message.

 		HAHA! I KNEW we were looking for letters!

And good going Spacebass. Very Happy
This is going to be quite a journey. Sorry I can't be in the field, though. heh

EDIT: Wow. Voodoo Donut seems about as sane as the Joker himself. Interesting place, thar. Very Happy
