Train hot dog the rider mail is a clue

The mail is always from the space coast

It seems like the message is a number of fragments that need to be reordered.

I don't know exactly what it says but he is doing a wiki
http://trainhotdog.wikia.com/wiki/Trainhotdog_Wikia

Are people still around? Things are Happening with this last episode: Train Hot Dog Episode 9 - Hot Dog Time Machine.

A clue about the time travelers, maybe? The background noise audio is also reversed; I haven't listened to most of it yet but ???

Rider mail, pretty close to verbatim [edit: at 20:22]:
"You know what I forgot to do? Rider mail. Okay. Um. Um let me do that right now. How do I, I-I haven't done this in, like, a week, so I need to search. Okay. Here's a rider mail uh from the 321 area code, that's the Space Coast, that's exciting. Uh this writer writes: 'Hey, it's Summer from the Space Coast. Hey, my wife lost her phone on the is on the train, can you check for me? Thanks, enjoying the pod care, good job.' Yeah, I'll go check. I'll go, I'll just wander the train and ch- and look for, look for this phone while I finish this podcast. Um. And here's another rider mail from the 510 area code. That's um the Bay Area. I, I don't know who this person is though, I don't recognize the number. This rider writes: 'I DON'T UNDERSTAND.' Well, I don't understand either, rider, so we're in the same boat. It's exciting."

The second rider mail was me! :') I tried texting the BEARDS number last week, didn't think anything would happen. Proof: http://imgur.com/gallery/M1iwr2J/

Anyway I guess we're supposed to go find a hidden phone on BART now?

Physical objects from April 5th event

I was thinking about the unsolved puzzles, and I was reminded of an MIT Mystery Hunt puzzle from a number of years ago that had a floppy disk involved. We actually had to physically pry open the disk to get at a paper note stuffed inside, in a corner that did not prevent the disk from functioning.

I don't know who has the physical objects from the April 5th, 2014 event, but it might be worth copying the disks and then prying each one open carefully, by hand, with NO TOOLS. Here is a guideline video, but make absolutely sure not to touch the magnetic part, or lose the spring. They *can* be put back together again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7XzQd1sCFE

Similarly, the statue of the frog has so far yielded nothing-- I am convinced that the sticker over the BUTT (remember the BUTTS?) might hide a drilled hole (is this a wooden sculpture, by the way?), or the glued bits on the bottom feet might be hiding things as well.

------

I also want to point out, because I don't see this discussed in the forums yet, that the "abduction event" occurred in front of a neighborhood called Normandy Village at 1863 Spruce Street in Berkeley. (aprox GIS 37.875108, -122.265278). Intentional, certainly, but I don't know if this information is relevant anymore.

Side note: the plants included in the bag were Oxalis pes-caprae (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxalis_pes-caprae) -- locally known as sourgrass, but invasive from South Africa to California; and either an aloe or a succulent ornamental lily from South Africa (hard to tell). Although Jim seems to be a careful biologist, it seems unlikely to me that he would have this level of knowledge, and instead, they probably just chose two plants that were nearby to include. I think there may be a clue in the "two plants, one animal, 4 forks, 4 spoons, 12 napkins" set of numbers.

Physical objects from April 5th event- follow up question

Reading over the forums, it's not clear to me how many disks have been solved and how many are still in progress. Can someone give an updated list of disk ID- files on disk - solved/unsolved status? Thanks!

Next episode of the podcast is out. No "Rider Mail" this time. Not sure yet if this podcast is related to the ARG or not...

Since I promised not to get into a froghole again I won't be, just thought I'd show you this gameplay video of "Dad Divisions" from "Shower With Your Dad Simulator 2015: Do You Still Shower With Your Dad?"

PLEASE NOTE: some guy already said this isn't Frog Fractions 2, but you'll want to see it anyway, I think. :p

has anyone tried ringing the beards number recently and checked whether this: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/files/469_bea_rds4.wav still plays?

Also, here's a complete list of what i feel is still unsolved. If you can think of any more, add to the list!

This code: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=29965

at the bottom of the picture. Perhaps it could be something used in either Prince of Persia, or in Desert Golf?

I believe that Mandelbrot is a fractal and a number of other fractals turn up in different areas of this but I don't know how they all fit together.

well, it is more of a set of complex numbers for which the sequence does not approach infinity.
