By the way, has anyone visited the co-ordinates 49°17'25.58" N 123°1'44.85" W yet?

Hi Breaker, as far as going there to look for a drop, to my knowledge none of us have gone.

Since we have no person in Vancouver we probably should ask Lisa if she can check out the location.

Or does somebody know people in Vancouver. Having players looking at the drop is probably much more fun.

I thoroughly agree with AUZ on this, but don't know anyone in the area. Reminds me of that uF post / google map? of player locations. Where the heck is that thing? Anyhoo, if we cant find someone, I guess we should break out the less fun option & ask Lisa to roll out to the drop zone for a peek. Again, I hate this option Rolling Eyes so I posted THIS THREAD in the hopes that we can recruit.

These guys seem to really like this book. Perhaps there's more clues in it. Anybody actually read it before?

I couldn't agree more with him. (Yeah, I'm a philistine, I know. Embarassed )


THE_ENNEAD - Prelude_EPISODE_05: I don't think it's a hint, but it keeps nagging me: Does anybody recognize what book Casey Manderson aka CATS is reading? I think the title is "Running Wild" but I had no luck finding it.

[META] Episode 05: The scene right at the beginning reminds me strongly of the Lord of the Rings, when Frodo hides from the Black Rider. Smile[/META]


@Psysop <3 your message on DC. You sure know how to blend in there and be mysterious! Wink

It's here: http://www.frappr.com/unfiction.

There's also this wonderful new group on Twitter: https://twitter.com/arg_deaddrop, more info here: http://deaddrop.wonderweasels.org/about/. I wanted to alert them, but noticed that someone beat me to it. Thanks! Smile

 		Caminicules
Since there are no major updste I started to make transcripts of The Enneas Videos for the wiki. During the work on Episode 1 I recognized that the text written on Lucian's parcel could be read.

I read "Caminicules Classification Lab". Searching on google might suggest that the first word is often founs as "Caminalcules", which is used for classification: http://taxonomy.zoology.gla.ac.uk/~rdmp1c/teaching/L4/Evolution/Session2/cam.html

and http://www.mreroh.com/student/biodocs/Evolution/Caminicule%20Classification%20Lab.xls

BTW. Since I am not a native speaker I have sometimes problems to understand everything that is said in the movies. So if you want correct the transcripts on the wiki.

 		Princess Flashback Episode 5
I was watching episode five and I did a frame by frame on Princess' last flashback. I grabbed one of the frames and tried my novice hand at photoshop to see if I could recognize the people in it. I've attached it here.
It seems to me like it is Nova on the right, and perhaps the two new characters that appear in episode 5, the ones they are supposedly hiding from. I would hypothesize from this that Nova is on the "other" side. Not sure what this does for us however.

I also noticed that on frame 3:46 or so of episode 5, on the door behind Flick there's two US bills taped to it. Wasn't able to see what amount they were, but it made me wonder if there was a link between them and the money in the Captain's pocket.

Lastly I have actually read the Great Gatsby, about ten years ago! Maybe I'll reread it.


Edit: After looking at the image a bit more carefully I'm not so sure about my previous assumptions. There is a little figurine of a demonish little dude, right side of the image, and this shows up in the lab while Princess is talking to the scientist guy (forgot his name) so maybe this flashback is also in the lab? but Nova is there. Dunno


@Psypop good find on the book, I was looking at that title but wrong cover. Smile

 		Episode 01 flashback & FB screenshot locations
I'm almost certain the location for this scene, future scenes, & the facebook screenshots are at the "Vancouver Block Clock Tower". Ref's:

Ennead Ep 01 at mark 2:27: HERE. Comparison: FLIKR
The Ennead Facebook>photos tab: Clock Tower at Night. Comparison: FLIKR2
The Ennead Facebook>photos tab: Inside Tower Roof Access. Comparison: FLIKR3

OK so the reason I looked for this is because the DC post (last sentence) says:
Somewhere to begin post wrote:
find "time" and then goto the true source.

This made me remember the clock pic at FB. Dont know if this will mean anything, but hey I got bored Wink & the Vancouver Block is very close to the drop coords we got.

and @aceituna: I tweaked the frame & to me it looks like Polly, U-Turn & Nova.

 		Many thanks indeed Very Happy

Wasn't quite sure what to say on the other site as I knew it was part of the trail and I didn't want to ruin it for anyone by saying too much.

I don't have much time today so I'll have a proper read of this thread tomorrow and take it from there.

Welcome on board. You should also have a look at the wiki (see signature).

 		Double post. Too less people are playing Wink

From the "somewhere to begin" post on DC:

find "time" and then goto the true source.


Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Found it: http://diocletianscourt.com/time
Just a countdown which ends 9/9/09 21:00

That has been already solved.

The last part contains NATO phonetic alphabet: IMEO.
No idea but I guess the "V"ictor is missing, since I guess here is where we should put in the password (name, palindrome):

 		okey doke
HEADS UP I don't know how to use the spoiler things, or if any of this should be considered spoilers.... my apologies.

I've read the Great Gatsby..... and I can't remember anything that pertains to this! But maybe later on something will pop up in the videos or on the blogs? We'll see.
Speaking of the videos: at the very end of Ep 5, during the credits, "help Lisa" and the URL to her blog flash quickly. So I guess they're trying to get more people involved and maybe that means it'll pick up speed soon?!

Randomness:
:Weird things on the http://diocletianscourt.com/
- on the right side of the page is a "Violations" box with some preeeetttyy interesting links...
This one's called "God only knows" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BNf-P_5u_Hw - a youtube vid about religion. Remember (via Ep 4, which specifically mentions Egyptian religion. Maybe gamblin was on to something?) that the Arc is a religious group? The second and third vids are actually the one that compares Egyptian lore to Christian.
"hot time, summer in the city".... I don't even know what this one's about
http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/globalwarming.html
"One of them" ....all I can say is.... whatdaheck!?
http://www.nndb.com/people/557/000109230/

: The Vesper post about "They have me" in Russian pertains to ~
Milivan -
"......
Hey Lanny and Brute good to see you and Fox I heard you were tagged no?
neway good to see you guys
M"

Fox -
"Nope, wasn't tagged. Vesper was, I think, and King Kahn sent me a coded thread claiming they were about to touch him–which I'm assuming they did, since his blog is gone and his IP isn't available for databounce anymore. Sucks, cause he was a whiz with numbers....
Fox Out."

so. where are they keeping them!? with Michael?


SORRY if this is really unorganized. stream of consciousness + forum does not pan out well.
lol fact: I was eating a muffin in the kitchen and looking out the window. I live in a forest so I became increasingly more and more paranoid that I would randomly see some creepy lurking person behind a tree, a la Lisa photoshoot pictures. so I had to leave the kitchen and go to my room and shut the door and the curtains :[
......
ok I don't want this post to be super long, so if I think of something else I'll put it up laterz.

Damn, I went through every palindromic name I knew! No wonder it didn't work for me. Sad

Well, we have a new website to check now too: http://korszellemfilm.tumblr.com/

Edit: I've been also trying to get into LowKey's WordPress account too, but so far unsuccessful. Also, does anyone remember what the name "Jacob" was significant to?

Welcome, Breaker.

I also tried many palindromes until I got the solution. Nice find on the tumblr site.

I guess that nobody remembers the Jacob significance, since we never found one.
