When the axons were first posted weeks ago - I don't suppose you were around then

This is the same flavor as you used in your original post.

You know that there are 8000+ people visiting these forums.
Some of them would like to be part of this yet lack the neccessary skills.
Some don't know how to deconstruct/reconstruct .wav files.
Some don't have the time to be the first to notice Dana's new blogs or
some embedded text.
Most of what this group finds is only accessible to them throuogh these
forums.
That's probably why interactions like the axons were designed in the
first place. They give everyone a chance to contribute.

All I'm saying is to look at what we have so far and keep focused on the various clues around 'two' (plus of course the "damage assessment" that we have yet to do) rather than sitting tapping one's fingers waiting to collect a whole set, something which -- since phones at some locations are simply not ringing -- might not ever happen

Yes I agree. As a matter of fact, that has been the point the whole time.
There are too many people working on .wavs, text, and completing "2"
axons already and I don't understand why the other 7000 people can't
try and focus on things that they can prove or disprove now while they
wait for the others to analyze our current data.

For a second, imagine that there could be additional info that could be gathered now. We could be finding it. Why should the rest of us be
waiting for others to tell us we are missing it when we could already
be looking for it?
If I can get 2 people to finish a set of axons now and nothing happens,
we'll know it's not important.
If something happens though, we'll know that we have more work to do.

Oh yeah, I've been here since we were in phase 1 and don't you worry
I'm not offended by your implication that because you don't agree with
me that I must be some latecomer schmuck who doesn't know anything.

Let's agree to disagree, shall we, and just drop it?

Yikes! I don't want to get in the middle of anything, but, like Sherpa, I'd like to get the puzzle moving. My thoughts are based on

[msekolpsu]

The code on

http://www.ilovebees.com/honey.html

Is 100 sets, which state:

!init transmit proc
!transmit truth

Seek the truth
Behold the truth
Reveal the truth
That is the law and the whole of the law

Is there any way to send code back? And what would the significance of 100 be? I would have thought there would be 210 codes (one for each one picked up or 210-104 (current axons hot)=106 or something.

[Epic1980]

Does anyone else have the feeling that when all 7 axons go hot in a group, maybe it will reset and we work for another audio clip?

Just a thought

[msekolpsu]

People have thought of that. What a horrible thought and lots of additional work now that we have the wav's.

Anyway, what state does the site go into after the day's broadcast is done? Shouldn't it go from transmitting to receiving? Maybe I just disproved my previous post about sending it commands.

[BanditB17]

maybe in the next phase, we can send via the email address?

[msekolpsu]

I wish there was a way to figure out the primitive 'chatter protocol' because I don't know if the communication would be e-mailed based throughout this exercise (plus the Princess seems to have control over the hotmail account).

When the Queen mentions 'chatter', she seems to be referring to telephones, but how were the calls placed? IP Telephony? Does anyone know how that works?

[BanditB17]

I work at a gaming center in wisconsin, we have Vonage that works through our broadband connection.... I wonder if the operator can trace IP addresses... >_<

[msekolpsu]

How would you 'dial' an IP address though? Could you try and dial the IP of www.ilovebees.com?

[BanditB17]

i was moreover thinking about finding where the call is coming from, if its in washington, that confirms bungie...

[BanditB17]

basically, you call using your modem, the internet does the whole long distance thing and travels to a place... a beautiful happy place (dont know what its called) and gets transformed from digital to analog, then runs along normal phone wires to the destination....

Well, there's at least one reason that it couldn't hurt. All of the groupings were successfully at 2/2 after yesterday's cycle. Today, more axons went live.

If the magic number was 2, the calls should have stopped, with some sort of update stating success, or at least something implying to stop trying.

[Oh, It's Just Pawl...]

something to stew on...
