 		Just a heads up in case anyone else has tried, I don't think anyone has mentioned this, but I just tried logging into the user area of http://www.dysontrust.org.

I used the credentials from before:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
username: anna_kies
password: ROBIDA


And now it isn't working? Possibly something they will clue us into soon.

If I am off on my credentials, or if I am just mistyping or something and someone can get in, let me know!

Yeah, those credentials haven't been working for a week or so - not sure why Anna changed her login, but apparently that's what's happened.

 		my contact cannot make it out there tonight. I can drive down tonight maybe, or if you want to make a run at it Karensa, let me know.

Thankfully TheBruce has an archive on the wiki of the letters and punchcards that were Anna's secure area.


Edited to add further spec...

Just looking at said archive of the letters, and was reminded about Dr. Bentley's proposal for the centurion "mech". According to the letter the Dyson Trust denied funding this project...

However, in one of the past tachyon photos we saw one of the centurions in operation.

Given that Enitech (and by extension Dr. Bentley) have been working on the Gardner Project, we can either assuming that: A) The centurion project will be restarted, funded, and realized within three years (or so) time... or B) Someone is secretly working on it now...

Is is possible that Centurion is the springboard for the (now) future Skynet AI?

Also, Dr. Bentley at least would have messed his pants to see the centurion "mech" in the picture, considering that he had just proposed it recently....

 		Now that we have cracked the last two codes (and by we I don't mean me lol since I got lost and couldn't seem to do it Razz ) has anyone thought of contacting the resistance at their email address and letting them know we have the locations? Maybe they will send additional information.

Now that I say this, I think I will Wink I'll let yall know how it goes.

Do we know that this was Bentley's project? The letter isn't addressed to anyone in particular, and nowhere does it state that it was his. This letter does mention that he was working on a second proposal for an upcoming meeting, but that's not definitive proof that it was the Centurion project.

Well, someone on the Gardner team proposed it, otherwise why would the letter be in their private area of the site? (I'm assuming that they're not using the secure area to just store random stuff...).

You're right, the first letter doesn't mention Bentley by name... but the asides in the second letter would lead one to believe that he was pitching centurion...

Also, he was a fried of Miles Dyson, which means he might have either had first hand knowledge of, or even a professional interest, in the type of research Miles was doing... A new project that might have been carrying on that research (at least in spirit) would be the perfect thing to propose to Miles' trust....

Again, just spec on my part.

 		Hmmm Enitech's site down for anyone else?

EDIT: Sorry, it appears to be fine now... I was hoping it would come back with an update

It was still working a few moments ago, but the blog was being faulty.

 		MadeAtDark is on his next trip out to find the camera.

Edit:
Still nothing found. No signs at all.
We are wondering if the cipher data is correct, the location accuracy on the part of the PMs is good, if the item is different than the previous camera finds, or if it was already found.
It'd be nice to know if someone not on these forums had found it.
The only thing to report at this time is a plaque nearby that reads:
"In memory of Elsie Arrigo."

 		New Enitech posting! The triangle symbols are somewhat different. I am curious if these will show us something? Or if maybe the triangles will fit together or something? All spec of course.

Well, given that we're dealing with circles of two sizes--small and larger--it could be morse code. Now it looks as though the lines could be some form of "connect the dot"...

As I'm imagining it, we could assemble the triangles like a puzzle... and by connecting all the dots we might find different sequences of morse code.

Once again, I'm speculating...

 		Given that the lines trail off the edges of both of the triangles we've seen on only two sides, plus the hexagon we've seen from another puzzle, I'm going to spec that we'll have six pieces altogether forming another hex. The lines from the two we have now don't appear to connect, so I don't think these two are adjacent.

Agreed. Assuming we're supposed to connect the pieces...

Of course, the total puzzle could be made of any number of hexes... so once we complete a hex we could then have to figure out where it fits in the whole piece...

Perhaps this is why they've suggested we send pics from any digital camera... Each one will have one of these resistance posters...

So getting the complete message could depend on our sending in loads of images for them to work with... Or just four more... depending on how large the puzzle is (could be).

 		Just in case nobody's put two and two together yet, and just because it needs to be said, the reason why we're supposed to face north is so that we capture the signs in the images. They're not there now, they will be in the future, but we wouldn't know that unless we had temporal instructions. Granted, we could face east, and we'd still just so happen to capture the sign we're supposed to have thanks to PM photoshopping skills, but I would assume that there's something interesting to the north at the location it was discovered that would have warranted taking a picture of it anyway.

Back to point in-fiction, these signs aren't just lying everywhere in the future to the point where you could take a picture wherever you wanted and would happen to see one in the tachyon images, so the purpose of direction is nothing more than to establish that you're supposed to be taking the picture of the signs that aren't there yet, but will be in the future.
