Yeah, the Mombasa rooftop one had me stumped last night too. Tried lots of things involving both Skulls, REX, sword. I have no clue what to try by this point now Confused
On the other hand, it might be something vague, as "Regrets Carrier" was one of the answers that had to be thought through a bit after trying different variations.

Well that killed my mapping efforts, no wonder I wasn't finding any new ones.

Great job getting them all so far.

I got a very nice little script I built that scans for values (to 6 levels). I'm not putting it public, as it'd more than likely take down the site with everyone hitting it constantly, and it uses recursive functions to spider the options.

That's telling me there are 3,672 potential addresses (For 6 levels, anyway).

And the only open puzzle piece is the one mentioned earlier, which is at FJONWSVSQETX, FNKZTRHAXC or XCEVPHVZTX

3,672? Christ...

This is how far I was until I realized that the questions are not static.

So, it dawned on me that this Old Mombasa rooftop question might be something from ILB. Thank goodness for thebruce's transcripts of the radio play here, the solve is directly from the dialog:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Moralis: Bunkers on every continent. Three surplus pelicans - one in Siwtzerland, one in Chile, one in Mongolia. Warthogs within 3 clicks of 15 major shuttle ports. A stash of guns on a rooftop in Old Mombasa. You want to hear more?

Solve = A stash of guns


gives gif number 58, by my count
http://thewaytheirworldended.com/CLIP/was-shaking.gif

One more gif to go?

eta: We have another mp3 now at http://thewaytheirworldended.com//CLIP/had-turned-black.mp3 which I'll add to the list .

The questions are unique per "memory location". Within those 3672 unique paths, there are only 98 unique memory locations.

Yay, snorkle256! You found her!
Yeah, BROKEN-GLASS previously had just the cracked hole on it, now there's this (see attached), so, I guess we have all the pieces for this round. Good job, everyone!

oh for cry eye it was from ILB. Hahahaha, dang it.

Ah well, at least I got to reminisce about it in IRC to a probably-very-bored drizjr, about all the time I spent hopping rooftops in the Outskirts level.

Grrr. Smile

I guess that BROKEN-GLASS wasn't the tentacle CP, because I haven't gotten anything from Intimation.

However, I think we are at least done with the first part of this ARG.
Congrats everyone. Now comes the part where it gets kicked into high gear for the summer time.
