We found the location last night while chatting in IRC, I posted the wherethesidewalkends picture to reddit.com/r/losangeles and asked if anyone knew where it was, and they said Griffith Park Observatory.

The information we have now is just that M posted a photograph of Griffith J. Griffith (the man with one name?), and after some people looked up information on him, he was a crazy dude. He also had a wife whose nickname was Tina. One of the reoccurring female names in the story.

Surprise, I've set up a wiki for us Smile at http://starlight.wikibruce.com

Ohhoe and Lgaitan have also started to populate some pages, so pop in and help us organize all this! Still lots to do there... If you're unsure of wiki stuff, just edit and put stuff in you think should be there or correct what you think is wrong; if there's a problem with formatting someone will fix it up again. The power of (community) wiki! Laughing

There is just over an hour left on the Chapter One Kickstarter for Find The Starlight. Even if you can't contribute, you should at the very least check out the main tumblr website and fall down the rabbit hole for a unique storytellying experience.

anybody still using this forum? or primarily the wiki and tumblr pages?

I just got into this and am pretty well intrigued, but i'm finding the geographical involvement limiting due to being in Indiana. anybody else feeling this?

In so many words...

Alright, I'm jumping in on this one! Since I'm reading through the whole story anyway, might as well work on updating that wiki while I'm at it... Razz

Update - *Alchemy Kit No. 35 Found

FTS Tumblr page was updated earlier today, with a photo and symbols written across the bottom. The glyphs/symbols represent the planets in our solar system, including Pluto. Since they are listed in reverse order, I'm wondering if they might be a countdown of sorts.

*ETA The planetary symbols are actually at the entrance to the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, AZ. Alchemy kit #000035 was found by tumblr blogger Magashi.

Another Update

M has updated the FTS Blog with a clue to the whereabouts of another Alchemy kit.
M wrote:
Some still sit in darkness, like the one beneath the walkway where the kid escaped.

We know M was in New Mexico and the speculation is this clue is pointing to the courthouse in Lincoln, NM where Billy the Kid escaped after being sentenced to prison.

*Btw, I edited my previous post about the latest find at Lowell Observatory.

This game has probably long since died, but 'All the magic that I've known I've had to make myself' is from a Shel Silverstein poem. Could that be the book referred to?

As far as I know this hasn't died, yet. M has yet to fulfill any or all of the Kickstarter rewards promised. I will confess, the infrequent updates don't bode well for the story/game.

Yes, that quote does was used to lead us to the book "Where the Sidewalk Ends". The post here, explains how it was found, solved, and used.
