The last three building silhouettes are:
  • Central Plaza, Hong Kong
  • the Empire State Building
  • one of the Petronas Towers

Is the first one the Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong?

The number sequence 100, 3, 71, 77, 102 is interesting because the four buildings shown have (assuming I've got the first one right) 72, 78, 102 and 88 storeys respectively (source: http://www.emporis.com/en/bu/sk/st/tp/wo/).

This makes 3 the only number up there that seems unreasonable as a number of storeys for a tall building.

...unless you're the Eiffel Tower. From the FAQ:

so we've understood the AMEND cipher and how it came into play with the last puzzle.. what is bagsbee, other than a person? does that relate to any other game currently in play or passed?

Dont you think the Fourth building looks more like the chrysler? which has 77 stories?
Also the john Hancock centre looks like the first, wich has 100 floors. Its strange they are not the right height in respect of each other though.

Here is an idea. I must say the second building looks a lot like the central plaza, but that is 78 floors not 77. One off, but maybe in the end we should be off, say three off?

That or I'm pointing everyone in the wrong direction.


Oh and quick game of help the n00b: How in the world did you decode the parinoidandroid thing. I mean I have code and the decoded line and I'm still lost

EDIT: Wait a sec, just found this http://www.infoplease.com/ipa/A0001338.html

Might help[/url]
