 		[ALPHA] Alpha Agency (trailhead)
So at the cocktail party Friday night Agent Lex went around handing out his personal business cards. Most of them were normal, but on the back of some (given to specific people) were symbols. Word on the street is that there were 17 in all, so I spent a good chunk of Saturday annoyingly asking people if they got a special card to catch 'em all (gotta do it). Here they are, in the order I obtained them. Note that some had words written above the symbol. If that was the case, I wrote them out at the right in grey.

Who wants to solve?

EDIT: Fixed Pixie's image.


[EDIT] Split off from the ARGFest thread. The cocktail party referred to by Mapmaker was ARGFest's friday night opening party --Giskard

No worries! I was asking everyone at the most inconvenient times. Razz I changed the entry for yours.

That's the stuff, nax! I'm struggling through it right now. It looks like the symbols are ordered by date the person joined the forums. It begins www.alphab... and ends in org, but the middle doesn't work out right so far. (Thus far I get WWWALPHABGENCYORG)

EDIT: Changed the mistaken letter in bold.

Which matches the mysterious logo on Lex's card. Good work, Rogi.

 		Lex gave me a card later with nothing on the back and said he had had a special one for me but saw me too late and gave it to someone else. Crying or Very sad
I'll still join anyway.

 		Nice solve mapmaker! Glad I could help. Very Happy I figured out the first three were "www", but after that I got lost.
