 		So Howard says having 3 people in the shelter is a bad idea? Doesnt bode well for our friend with his arm in the sling then..
Still trying to understand what we are supposed to be trying to solve.. We seem to have a bunch of non connected bits and pieces that are all waiting for another part.. or its out there.. somewhere.. already.. Trying to find the link between the survival kit and the rest of the leads.. ARG>>>HHHH

So has the previous leaderboard been erased now? That's harsh for those folk who were surviving 600-700 days.


Nope the highscores are still there, and just to clarify the MagicJesus and Velvet Devil highscores are legit and were not 'hacked' in.

Yeah, it seems like they have at least been cleaning out the fake ones. I think that's why some lf them have mysteriously appeared and disappeared.

 		Curious to see what happens once someone hits 1k days survived. Doubt anything would happen, not a whole ton of what we've been doing the past week has really triggered anything. PM's may be trying to find an alternative way to move the game along or we're missing something that's right in our faces the whole time.

With the current unit values 1k is definitely impossible, it's looking like 815 or so is the mathematical limit. But they could change the unit values.

I don't even know what I would do with such an overt Lost reference at this point. Plotz. Certainly.

Hmm, I totally missed that connection Pixie! But to be clear this is based off of some probably sloppy math, but if others want to run the numbers again, please do. I'd be really surprised if this was done on purpose and they expected us to crunch all these numbers lol.

 		Sorry, I was just being silly. I don't actually think there was a lost connection I promise Smile

 		That moment when people actually starting thinking LOST is connected lol. But alright, 815 is the theoretical limit now. I just have a hard time believing that we're supposed to be squatting here playing this sim while the movie release is in a little over 2 weeks.

Go easy on Howard, he has had a lot of last minute chores to do around the house to get ready for the end of the world and he just hasn't had the time he thought he would to keep in touch with his daughter. Story of his life.

 		Suddenly feel an insane desire to binge-watch Lost. It reminds me of the time that I painted a sequence of numbers onto a tank top and walked around Shinjuku hoping that someone would notice (nobody did). I even wore it on a first date with a promising girl I met online, but she didn't really seem to appreciate it. Ahh, why are nerdy ARGers so hard to meet in real life? Crying or Very sad

I haven't tested my numbers out by actually playing the SIM with just one person in the bunker, but my calculations show 848.54 - 854.95 days (using 3 filters & taking 8 first aid kits).

HUGE love for anything LOST though Wink Very Happy Exclamation Exclamation Exclamation

One of the first things I did was to type in "4 8 15 16 23 42" (nothing happened of course).

It seems like the fact that having more than 2 people in the bunker doesn't play out well is significant & may not bode well for either MEW or JGJr's character.

The fact that optimized supplies only get you to 848 days - for ONE person might mean that it's all Howard ever prepped for.

IDK, lets see what tonight's update reveals.

In reality, 5 gal water/person/day is a little high (based on WHO emergency planning guidelines) and they should be growing stuff, or at least let you eat the fish once you run out of food.

I've seen once the guy with "Geronimo Jackson" t-shirt walkin' down a street here in Germany. I wanted to call him, just didn't know what to say Very Happy
