 		[PUZZLE] quarteroffour.doc {SD 1/documents/3:45zip/3:45doc}
Found in the doc file!

Edit: According to Ehsan if you go to Web Layout in Word and click the dot lines 3 out of the 4 will show you maps.

Edit 2: The filenames mean nothing, they're not the original ones (which we lose since they're embedded in the doc)

Edit: title clarification - Rowan

 		We've seen bits of these maps in our other photos. The big find is that what we thought before was a device schematic in "overheadmap_412" is the elecrtical grid for Florence. Also note that the insignia is the same as what is on the recipt pictured in bdoc2.pdf.

That's intriguing. The Uffizi gallery does not hold any jewelry treasure. But another place very close to it does.
What if Gunter's target was not ONLY the Uffizi?
Exactly behind the Uffizi Gallery there is Ponte Vecchio ("Old Bridge"), the most well known of the town's bridges. Along the bridge, on both sides, old and little stores hold the very best of the traditional, hand-made Italian jewelry. There are at least a dozen of them. It would be absolutely insane to plan a robbery there: it's damn watched, filled with alarms and, well, it's literaly hangin'out of the bridge. But for a guy who's planning to dig a tunnel up into the Uffizi gallery, that's probably just business as usual.

Or maybe the jewelry stuff is just a nice red herring. Smile

Yea I'm not putting too much thought into the jewelry thing at this point.
One thing that did come to mind though was tools. For the type of digging/drilling Gunter might do, he'd probably be using diamond tipped tools. Maybe the jewelry stores are just a launching point or a place to aquire a tool?

 		[PUZZLE] Numbers in quarteroffour.doc map corner
Alright...

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/files/quarteroffour_html_7a48cdb9_569.png

Contains some numbers in the top left corner. To be more specific:

Top list:

15B? 1134? 1633?
16A? 1140 1636
16B? 1157 1640
17A: 1200? 1652?
17B: 1200? 1703?

Bottom:

16B? 1422 1923?
17A: 1424 1927
17B: 1429 1941

Those are all I can get, I'm not good at image manipulation and some of those might be off but they're probably worth discussing...

Potential Options:

Guard times?
Motion sensor times? (one of each?)

This has been brought up in other topics but it's probably worth focusing on... Can anyone clean up the numbers so we can get an exact list? Plus some of the numbers just in the corner of the top list appear to have been inked on...changed?

edit: merged into exsiting doc puzzle thread

See here and here.

The yellow rose that figures so prominantly in the movie may refer to the Florence Cathedral famous for the golden rose donated by Pope Eugenius IV. Incidently the cathedral is called St. Mary of the Flower.

 		Okay, the number pairs appear to be rooms and sweep times. The left column indicates when someone may make their first sweep and then their second sweep of a room.

 		Timing issues
If the times are room sweep times, shouldn't the times beween the rooms be the same in each column?

From the first group of times:

15B 1134 1632
16A 1140 1636
Time 6 --- 4

16A 1140 1636
16B 1157 1640
Time 17 --- 14

16B 1157 1640
17A 1200 1652
Time 3 --- 12

17A 1200 1652
17B 1206 1703
Time 6 --- 9

(How the heck do you line up columns??)
