 		Surprised Wow, what a confounding new wrinkle to the new ARG, been trying to skim all 50+ pages of y'all 'Think-Tanking', could someone just post an 'abridged version' what all this new stuff means for us laymans, thanks in advance Surprised . Cheers and keep hunting! OH! BTW, got my Arcade Aid Pins to in the mail, like nearly 60% of you, got Lightcycle/Sentry.

Aye, I guessed that too. And it may apply to everything I'm hearing, except for the volume drop I mentioned. It doesn't change until almost 2 seconds AFTER the moving Closeup of Sam on the bike begins.

Maybe, maybe not. It really didn't seem any crazier than what might need to be done in order to decypher the double-exposed photo or the sailor (if they're anything). Image overlays, filtering RGB channels and light levels seems just as hairy as analyzing sound.


Do we have an informant in our midst... ? Smile

Just an gumshoe intern from Tron Sector who hardcore jumped on the ARG bandwagon at 2am this morning. Sry, no affiliation with ENCOM or FL.com here. Razz

I downloaded the video and opened it in VLC and played around with the equalizer settings (which I think someone else tried last night as well) and the sound to me is pretty consistant, no fluctuations or anything that suggests a separate embedded message in one of the channels or anything like that... I think the noise is there for effect, to make it seem vintage. I could be wrong, if someone else has another idea as to how to analyze it please take a shot at it.

I do think that maybe there might be something in the static at the bottom, seems to be some kind of image in there, musical notes or something, but again could be for effect and we're looking too hard.

Oh man, now we have to watch fragglerock for clues. This is getting a tad obscure. Although Disney does own the Henson company now.

Two words...

Wild Goose Chase.

Wait that's three...ANOTHER CLUE?!?!?

The only thing I noticed in the building facade drawing was that there are possibly be dashes and dots running vertically in the center of the building that might be morse code, if anyone knows morse code...

Could one of you image manipulation gurus see whether any kind of overlay can be done between the solar sailer image and the EOLC file:

Nothing that jumped out at me. I did try lining up the different gradients to see if anything happened. The only thing I noticed was this.



The bottom lighter gradient looks like a bar that could mean something, but I'm not seeing anything and I tried ROT'ing all the letters shown here, and nothing. I'll keep trying things as people come up with them but I'm out of them at the moment and need to get back to work. Razz

Yeah I went over the vid last. The static at the bottom is just a head switching effect. Nothing is hidden in the video in anyway. I basically went through the vid frame by frame. What I can say about they vid is it looks really good. It defiantly looks like a copy of a copy of a cam master. Wink

 		You guys do know there are 2 pages right?

http://www.helloflynn.com/swfs/workserver/hires/ESOR830SYROB.htm
and
http://www.helloflynn.com/swfs/workserver/hires/BU7YREKD3HD5.htm

With regards to the blueprints, there is a slight deviation in the lines between the windows, perhaps if the images from helloflynn and from heydeck designs are imposed it will lead to something.

The audio is interesting, but I think the video was more interesting with the lines and static, perhaps something hidden in it?

Also, could the supplied scales help with the blueprints?

 		The only other thing I've got so far is, why does the roof of the building have circuitry deco running UNDER the vent installations? I GUESS it could be actual wiring plans, but if it is, its very poorly thought-out to the point of being ridiculous. Most of the wiring quite blatantly leads nowhere.

 		what now?
All joking aside, there has to be something missing, think about this.

"Bonus Level" I really think there is a badge we achieve for this, not because I just "WANT" one, but because something would come up to even tell us we found all this hidden stuff.

so what do we do now, There is something hidden in that flower image and solar sailer.

Did anybody think to print them and check them out under the blacklight.

Any of them?

I just went to the garage to look through my old shirt making equipment and I guess my parents threw them away.

Someone do that I don't think any of us tried that.

Those pictures had so much white graininess that they may contain some white lettering or numbers.
