googled it. The monument is 555ft tall and 5.5 inches ( I think, not sure on the inches part. ) It's also some sort of 'Iluminati' number, but I don't know if that's relevant. Nothing on the 4.2mi yet, but I think you're right and it means miles. Is that maybe the distance between the pentagon and the monument? Does this mean they're hitting the pentagon instead of the statue of liberty next?


Which Monument is 555ft tall?

The Washington Monument > The Pentagon = 3.3 mi

So I'm guessing whatever the target/location IS 4.2 mi of the Pentagon.

I am assuming so... The Washington Monument is 3.3 Miles by car from/to The Pentagon.

The Whitehouse is 3.6 Miles by car from/to The Pentagon.

So the 4.2 mi is seemingly pointing out something that is 4.2 Miles away from The Pentagon.

I'm so confused by this game.

All these coordinates, all these times and nobody can make it out there, but it doesn't seem to be important that anyone actually goes.

And that dashboard rar was the most anticlimactic result for the energy spent.

Hrm.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Awakening_(sculpture)

It's a sculpture!! I think it's 4.2 miles from the pentagon. Could that be it?

It kept coming up as 4.2 miles away from the pentagon, but it might be from a hotel near the pentagon. Still, it's the best I got right now. Laughing

No offence but where did you get "The Awakening" from? And that sculpture was moved to National Harbor in Maryland which is 11 some miles from The Pentagon.


And I totally agree w/ you Shaggy. Perhaps it's just to keep us interested?

It kept coming up when I googled it. It must have been old or I googled it wrong. Sorry, I didn't know that it had been moved.

Laughing Yeah. Happy thanksgiving btw to all that celebrate. I'm thankful for such nice people to play the game with! ( I'll try to get more info in the future before jumping to conclusions! )

I'll get back to googling now.

Seriously... Conclusion jumping and assumption making is all part and parcel, trial and error of ARGs man. The PMs would steer you right I.G if you went to them with a similar "mistake" anyway!

No big deal, honestly. And ty for the compliment btw.

Well, I hope this helps...I asked the Gift of Wiki about Half-life and it gave me this article...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-life

Which seems more plausible than a video game. Apparently, when the number of half-lives elapsed equals 3, the fraction remaining is 1/8. The percentage remaining is 12.5

Any thoughts?

Oh yes - and Happy Thanksgiving, lovelies.
