New page http://ilovebees.com/humptydumpty.html. Looks like everyone wasted their time putting together the .wav files.

EDIT: Added Tag -vpi

Wasted? Never!

But you'll notice on the main page highlighted letters that spell out

Okay... My guess as to why embergency is at the end of "Boy meets Girl" is because Durga gives Jersey all of Walk-away Girl and then follows up with the Emergency file... So walk-away girl actually goes between "I can do better then that..." and the start of "emergency".

Someone should let the Princess know we've been way ahead of her for weeks on these.

(Kinda grumpy about it right now. I just saw the letters and I was hoping they'd be a puzzle, but no.)

[SPEC] Stories

I'm a bit busy getting ready to go out enhottenating this morning to compare right now, but is there any possibility that the SP's stories correspond to the queen's stories? It doesn't seem at all obvious to me at first glance, but I was just thinking that we have two chapters of each, most of the Queen's third chapter, about to get the fourth, and presumably the SP's third chapter on Friday. Just a thought in case some one wants to analyze...

Someone did a pretty good spec on this a while back, including correlating Hiroyuki and Kamal to the electric weasels, which really made me smile. I don't know where that thread went, though.

You know, you can always Search instead of throw up your hands in defeat...

the thread you are talking about is here.

However the poster took back their spec saying it contradicted itself...

Commandeered? VERY interesting choice of words, normal people don't "commandeer" things, its a military term. So far, SP has only spoken in parable, or with the voice of an inocent child, but now she's beginning to speak in military lingo.

i'm getting a little scared that the SP might actually be the covenant virus, wouldn't that be teh suck? we trust her implicitly, then she turns on us

w00t, thanks SP, love ya. Hmm I wonder... I think she's only putting together pages where we already found them all. So no fable for us, right?

And... off to class!

Hmm, interesting point. However, the context in which I've seen the word "commandeered" most is that of pirates commandeering a ship; pirates are a perfectly normal thing for a child to be interested in! It's still worth considering the military side of it too, though, of course Smile

Actualy, wasn't there a spec about the combined files containing a steged file? but we couldn't get it because it would be impossible to recreate the originals. Now we can, it may be worth looking at.

Hah! That was a little embarrasment of mine. I have to remind myself not to post whatever spec comes to my mind first.

Why were the transmissions split up?

Hey guys, any ideas on this?

If the Queen's version was whole (as we find the commandeered transmissions to be) and not broken into several different wav files, why did Melissa break up the transmissions when sending them out over the axons?

Didn't Melissa want us to interpret the transmissions for her? Well, I would think it would be one heckuva lot easier to interpret a transmission for her if I heard the whole thing straight out.

The only guess I have is that she had to break them into smaller chunks in order to get them through our "primitive" network setup. But then, if she broke them up, why couldn't she give them to us in order instead of having us piece it together ourselves?

[meta] Or is this just an oversight by the PMs? [/meta]

Perhaps Melissa put the two weeks together herself after we had unlocked them. Has any one noted a major/minor difference between our string of .wavs and her's.

Purpose of Melissa's unbroken sound files

At the least, it serves as a confirmation of the ordering of the .wav pieces. I don't remember the specific instance, but as I listened this morning, I was a bit surprised to hear one segment in a different place than I expected it to be.
