Podtacular just happens to be a website for halo stuff....going there now with a smile on my face.


I've had a look, listened to the latest podcast, and done a quick search on the forums, and found nothing so far... Anyone else having any luck?

 		A quick Google for "dump bag mother moon" revealed this:

http://nappaw.tribe.net/thread/38a8563d-55f8-46fb-9c99-e365d30f5bba

In this story, Coyote, Rabbit, and Gopher dump a bag of fleas on Father Sun and Mother Moon, prompting them to run 'round the Earth.

Could this be a reference to the Pious Flea? Or something on the Podtacular site?

Rather, "flame". Probably doesn't make much of a difference.

 		I recalled S mentioning finding a lot of Nebulae upon re-entry into normal space. So I googled "nebulae shooting star" and got this:

http://www.meinig.com/rpmeinigjune07_089.htm

That's the only site I can find that calls it both the "Shooting Star" and "Flaming" Nebula. Most other records have it listed as "Flaming Star Nebula". Perhaps related. Perhaps not.

EDIT: Interesting. The "Flaming Star Nebula" is in fact IC 405, not IC 410 (the one we're looking at on that page). They are both located in the constellation Auriga, however.

 		Yeah, I asked if Nebula IC 410 had any particular relation to their mission and got this response:

Quote:
>>Sys:Msg>@enderxenocide0//I can find no reference to IC 410 in SWP Archives.


So... probably not related. Going to try a few different avenues.

Well, since we're going down this train of thought, a quick google search tells me that Auriga is latin for charioteer. no idea if thats relevant but just something to work with

>>Sys:Log//If successful, occasional controlled leaks may be sufficient distraction for S, having a calming effect on her while contained.


So i think we'll be going through this again at some point.

 		Agreed. But we need to find just where this flame/flames/shootingstar/meteor is.

 		Found this game last night and its my first ARG so sorry for noobish thoughts Confused

but ive been looking over thethewaytheirworldended site and noticed a lot references i think have been skipped over in these posts.

first off a lot of you have noticed that S is very child like

http://thewaytheirworldended.com/SYS/HD13-017H-2398-SW04/

read the very bottom paragraph, melissa had a small fragment of her that is very child-like personality fragment. S perhaps?

second off there are quite a few references to music, quite a few from the twitters, http://thewaytheirworldended.com/SYS/LOG/ has some as well especially the last two lines. also go back to link one and we see that melissa's favorite song is stormy weather by frank sinatra. go to http://thewaytheirworldended.com/SYS/109B-MFIO-PUBJ-HF04/
which is the subsequent photo and we get a picture of stormy weather.

Now im not quite sure where this fits in yet, maybe some way to calm S? but with so many references to music and Stormy Weather i thought perhaps it's worth mentioning.

 		we've got about 2 and a half minutes left until hibernation - are we any closer to working out S's next move?


Quote:
intimation>>Sys:Log//I've been informed that S has left 'clues' as 'breadcrumbs' at various locations along her tentacle. These should lead to her CP.



Quote:
intimation>>Sys:Log//It concerns me that S's tentacle control point hasn't yet been located. The effect of a sustained crack may be detrimental.


Quote:
intimation>>Sys:Log//I am postponing hibernation for one hour, then I must preserve my processing for maintaining this crack.


So we've got an hour to find S
