Ah yea, sorry Fuzzy. D:

Anyways, as for the new video I suspect this is taking place in Chicago, and I wouldn't know anything about Chicago, but I have a friend who lives there and if I can get contact with him I guess I'll try to see if he knows anything about this.

And the same sign (which is an official, real sign that was almost certainly there already, in case anyone wonders otherwise) shows up multiple times throughout the video. Since he is presumably still in Chicago, can anyone familiar with the area identify it?


Also, under one of the signs is the number 32, which I'm also sure was already there. I suspect you're right about the intent.

Edit: Found the location via Google Streetview. It's the BP Whiting Oil Refinery, but not the main entrance. It's a view of it from E 129th Street in Whiting, IN.

Edit2: And we finally have movement. Another countdown on whatisstork.com. Will reach 0 at 4pm Central time.

Two new files up. One's a picture. I can make out some words, like "power source" and "outer panel." Nothing in the EXIF data that I can see. Not sure what this is for.

But the text file is interesting. I noticed some powerpoint formatting things, so I opened it in powerpoint, and low and behold, there's a slideshow!

Here is it in easy-to-access, already-a-powerpoint format: http://www.mediafire.com/?1j7sdiiwoew1579

Just in case there are people reading who are unaware, there's been activity in the game. It's just been difficult to keep posting everything in two places, so I've stuck to the forums at http://finallevel.net/n/. Biggest thing is that TOBOT has been updated and rewards a point for each valid command, and I've managed to get a score of 7 out of 10. Could use help figuring out the last three.

Super, a drop! Would be awesome if the info from the drop could be posted here, too. Have y'all on the IG forum determined what "NNine" is? THX.

Can't find anyone in Chicago to retrieve it. And no luck on NNine yet...

They must have seen me at the drop. Or suspected. I told you I was close to the source.

We still don't know what estrR is. But in some ways, it's up to us to decide. What our bodies, science, and technology are capable of is changing, very quickly.

We have to decide what that means.

One final question then: what is estrR?

I can help Alex Felts, if you can help all of us.

One drop, the PM apparently got tired of waiting and posted the contents online. Here is where I uploaded them on box.net. There are three other locations, but have no reason to believe are drop locations.

Also, i don't know if anyone got this but:

At the source code for the whatisestrr.com there's this section:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://whatisestrr.com/wp-content/uploads/tdomf/49/estrr_myguess.jpg alt="estrR" />It could change the way we think about families. Whether or not this is what the Stork Corporation was working on, I think we’re probably getting close with science and technology to something similar. I think something like this should be available for everyone. If the Stork Corporation invents it, but then makes it really expensive, then it could increase class divides based on whether people could afford to use it or not.
