Well, for the 13:38 location under stupid_cop i've found that the nearest payphone is at a pizza hut down the street in the other direction. I probably will not be able to go today though due to work but I'm off tomorrow so ill try it then.

Not all of the calls are for Verizon payphones The first say_something location (Denver) was a Qwest payphone and the coordinate came up with the address 1699 Wynkoop street but the address does not exist. So we went to the only place that is close that we were absolutly sure had a payphone and that was 1701 Wynkoop and that is a train station with about 8-9 payphones.

Met up with Addict again this morning to redeem ourselves on the axon that was incorrectly answered yesterday (Powell and Geary).

Addict had the honors and answered correctly.

Just us and a kid who was lurking but listened to a bit of the repeat.

We also took a pics of each other listening to repeats (that's my trusty red bike leaning up against our Pwn Booth):

No pay phone particularly close to the coordinates (in the street or on a nice piece of grass w/ trees next to the street).

Nearest options - a Bob Evans phone right on the corner (inside the entrance) and a phone in the shopping plaza (outside the chinese restaurant) are about equidistant. Only slightly farther away (on the other side of the street) is a phone in a Mobil station. Much farther away (down the other side of the plaza) is yet another phone. This is the only one in a nice Verizon kiosk, the others were in beat-up GTE kiosks.

I chose the Mobil station because, of the 4, it is the only one with an address actually on Gideon Road, which is where the coordinates clearly point. If Melissa had searched coordinates for the address of the shopping plaza they would have come up around the corner.

Unfortunately it was a bust. The phone worked for me, but no call. (The other 2 phones work too, I called them.)

If anyone else can get out there at 11:19 EDT in the next few days to stake out the other phones maybe we can eliminate them one by one.

EDIT: I see IvanLeopold and a friend were out there too - which phone did you stake out? Was that you guys walking into the Chinese restaurant a few minutes later?


EDIT TOO: Re the theory that Melissa may be using that payphone location site to find phones to be her axons. Maybe there are other such sites, but NONE of the phones I mention above are on the list that is linked over in that thread.

FYI, the axon I did yesterday was on the way home so I stopped for lunch around the same time. For the curious, Melissa did not call back today. Although her statement about continuing to communicate with the crew was a little ambiguous, I take this to mean she's only calling places where the connection was not made.
