If there's a "sound" related drop, it should be in Cleveland. Just sayin', 42E. Putting it out there. Wink

In case you weren't aware, there is a spreadsheet for info about our SurvivalCode.com profiles.
The link is on the first post of this thread:

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=32672

I opted to leave my preservation code out of it though. Just sayin'.

Hah, I posted a list of cities on FB.

I had Tampa, Omaha, San Diego, Minneapolis, Philidelphia, Des Moines (or Dubuque, for me XD), Houston, Albany, Buffalo, Cinncinati... any other suggestions?

Edited to update.


New Orleans would be a pleasant surprise.

Also, the Logfiles look to be a descent down through the facility to me.

Oooh, you're right, they do! And I can't believe I forgot the Big Easy, wow.

For those that wish to compare their sense prints, I've compiled this: http://www.mediafire.com/?85lsndc5ijje60e

I actually went through and did all 32 (normal) combinations back when we were trying to figure out if one combo was special (back before fellhawke left). The numbers match up perfectly. I didn't edit edit the file names at all.

I say normal because you could let the eval error out and get, I'm guessing here, zeros for some questions. I forget who discovered this, but it is interesting...


The only reason I was able to get zeros was because I had a spotty wifi signal, so it kept freezing up on me. All I had to do was click the link and wait for the lag. Haha.

I don't think you can intentionally avoid the questions, though.

Compiled this from the video "intro.flv" from http://survivalcode.com/thegenesis/.

Notes from reviewing "intro.flv":

00:00:08 - 00:00:12 : When backing away from the Earth quickly, the video begins in a CGI design of a city from a bird's-eye view, jumping to an aerial exit of Midtown Manhattan, specifically centering on (approximately) 40th-42nd Street and Broadway-Fashion Ave, a block from Bryant Park, and the southern-most portion of Times Square. This may be a coincidence, due to its commonplace nature and easy recognition.

00:00:44 : It's obvious that the two girls sitting together in the car are the two women that appear throughout the video. The redheaded girl draws constantly and the brunette girl holds her suitcase, corresponding later to the red-haired woman seen drawing in her studio later and the brunette woman holding the silver briefcase. Why does the brunette girl exit the car and is left behind as the redhead girl is driven away? Who is the driver? What in the license plate number or what state/country is it issued to?

00:01:11 : What is the significance of the drawings on the chalkboard within the classroom scene? Pentagons=five sides. If the images of the three boards were superimposed on each other, the larger lines would connect to form a larger pentagon as well.

00:02:29 : License plate number: MH 674T. The origin of the plate is obscured either on accident or on purpose.

Good job guys stitching the blackboards together.

Approximately 36 small pentagons make up the large pentagon image.
Someone in an other thread said he tried every permutation of the initial quiz and got 30 some different combinations of pentagon shapes that can appear on our profile/ID. Seems to be a map of all the different combinations of individual sensory profiles or something.

The small pentagons with notes in them could represent students in that classroom? Or the main characters from the videos we have seen so far?

Noticed this as well from intro.flv. It may simply be the number 5 or pentagons/five-pointed shapes popping up again, but it's worth mentioning.

The numbers in the Log file could most likely be an IP address,since its 2 sets of numbers,2 in 3 digits each and 2 in 2 digits each. I'm gonna look more into this.


EDIT: I have recently visited the log files. The name "Facility 01" Has been replaced with "Prelude",so now were being shown what has been happening up to the current events.

Interesting little thought and analysis here. Maybe the light and dark boxes mean something, like a puzzle of sorts, sort of like that old handheld game Lights Out. All I know right now is that the numbers at the base of the boxes, along the catwalk, do NOT correspond directly to the placement of the boxes in a binary sort of sequencing.

Oh my god. I never would have thought of that. I must have thought at first glance that it was only lighting in the painting, although now that I look at it... the light source would be way off if so. Scattered and odd. Clearly some chambers are "lit" or active, and others are not. Nice find!

Hmm... could almost be part of a QR code.

QR code? Perhaps it's meant to be the second piece to the ones in our profile. Another thought is that it could be binary, though I think someone else checked that? If not, I'll try decoding that.
