I hope people like this. It seems very clear (at least to me) that this is the 'right' answer to the WAV audio puzzle, as when you edit out the bits of dead air and clip them together, they run together perfectly.

Yeah, what really helps piece them together are the background noises.

The editing app I used (Goldwave) really helped. Let me zoom in right down to the waveform level so that I could match things up perfectly. I've even learnt how to spot a warning klaxon in the background just by looking at it - and hence knowing where exactly to splice two files together.

this is very good! made it so easy to follow the story. i meen it wasent that hard to peice together and figure out what was going on....it just sounds so much more "whole" when you hear it all at once....very good job!

Risking a trout here.

Shouldn't Jan's story follow Jerseys? There is the wind down at the end of Jersey's and the wind up at the beginning to Jan's. Jersey asks Durga to spy on Jan and it seems she is delivering.

I always thought they all start at the same time.

Notice how in the start of each story, there's a system shutdown caused by a possible power outage?

Jerseys story begins with Genie restarting, and he's surprised about it.
Kamal's story begins with his radio link to Hiro going dead for a moment.
Jan's story begins when a power outage puts the military base on alert, in advertently bringing attention to her.

The starts seem to be simultaneous, although it's clear that Jerseys only lasts a couple of minutes, Jan's spans a few hours, and Kamals plays out over several days.

Hey Maxdamage, have you or yoru mirror considered converting these files to MP3 and/or OGG formats to save bandwidth?
