Side Channel Attack

So, has anyone thought about what system we might be targeting re: Flynn's side channel attack? The method talked about here:

http://www.flynnlives.com/images/forums/useruploads/book.jpg

Now, when he wrote this, the "supercomputers" he spoke of would have been way out of his range. Each of us has a more powerful computer than the one that is running his server/simulation right now, so that'd be us.

The question is, what computer are we performing a side channel attack on? Encom? His server? And should/when we succeed, what will that bring us?

I'm in the same area, too. However, I'll be at work; perhaps I can offer online support for our area?

If it turns out there is something happening in Salt Lake City this Wednesday I can be up there by around 3:30 PM. However, I'm not going to make the two hour drive unless it's confirmed that something will be happening in SLC.

Do we know when we're supposed to get the list of which 16 cities will be involved?

I'm hoping they tell us for Tron Tuesday, instead of waiting until the countdown ends. They told us before Zero Hour, so I'm surprised nothing has cropped up yet.

So I created a thread for an online support team, most especially those well outside any of the possible drop cities. Each drop team is going to need help if the call to action on FL is to be believed as stated. Instead of just hunting in the fray, if each team has a single, clear point of contact for online help it will work much better.

The question is, what computer are we performing a side channel attack on? Encom? His server? And should/when we succeed, what will that bring us?

The goal of FL has always been to find Kevin Flynn. We, the players, know he's on The Grid. Characters like ZackAttack, Mako and the others have probably just recent discovered this for themselves and need our help hacking into The Grid and opening a "BIG door". Our success will likely provide access to The Grid where we all can find Flynn and experience The Grid for ourselves.... in theaters.

As to what computer we perform the side attack on and where it resides is anyones guess. My question is: If I were Kevin Flynn where would I keep The Grid to keep it safe and prevent any outside influences, malicious or otherwise?

I really thought they'd update at the 24 hour mark! They're driving me up the walls! I am hurting so bad from leaving a definite city (Chicago) to go to an unlikely one (Charleston SC, where I am now). If they'd put up the list, I was ready to Greyhound my butt to the nearest one!

Well if there are any FL people in Charleston, lmk. Wink We'll drown our sorrows at a Starbucks and try to help online. I'm on my great aunt's computer atm, not exactly ideal for high-speed ARGing, so will find somewhere with wifi tomorrow.

I'm in Miami, in West Dade (next to Tamiami Airport) and at work. I do have a laptop with broadband access, but if the objective is to reach anything in the city it's gonna take me a while to get to it in the middle of the day.
