it's a bit disappointing to be honest. Was really expecting it to continue for the six days or whatever it was meant to be.

Could be the NPR code was meant to be today's code. You know, time zones and whatnot. Or maybe the numbers yesterday and the location in the code today.

could also be that the location will be left out, and we will know where it goes providing the next 2 have both the code and the placement sign.

If there is a June album release or some other future date, then they'll probably drag it out a bit longer. Rather than blow the whole code load in a couple of days. Keep us on our toes..... ????

Hence Joyrex's reference to silence mebbe... some silence for a little while?

I don't think it will be long before the game is over. Assuming this is all leading to an announcement, that announcement will be 4-6 weeks ahead of the release date, which means we're probably looking at an early May announcement in any case.

That's my guess....

Or they could bang out the rest of the codes within the next day or so, and when we figure them out, it just unlocks a whole new set of codes!

Lol.... I doubt they would drive us that mad though. Who knows.... How ever it pans out, I'm diggin' the journey.

Oh God, this rabbit hole could go on for months. If this was just the first puzzle, could you imagine how cryptic this could become. Or if this was just an EP and then on the linear notes was another cryptic riddle for the next EP's release and so on. They have been quiet so long, the depth of their plans is impossible to fathom.

He repeatedly mentioned Silence (at one point, specifically Radio Silence). IMHO meaning after the radio broadcasts, it's going silent for x amount of time. Then, earlier before the radio silence bit (I believe) he was quoted as:

Joyrex April 23rd: My point was they are not (yet) using online specifically to promote this
This quote happened right around the same time as BBC1 - which I wouldn't consider anything related to "online" specific (nor NPR).

My guess? After the radio broadcasts, we get silence and the next clues will be web related. Either decoded, leaked or otherwise will reveal the next clue(s). Oh, and a revamped boardsofcanada.com for the finale. I know we've had Youtube already, but I'm thinking more along the lines of web pages themselves.

Thoughts?

That makes perfect sense, and I still believe there are unresolved oddities, trails being one, the NPR broadcast, why don't we have any zeroes yet? The thing is carefully plotted and I fully expect it will drag on a little more, drum up interest... let simmer, then flambé and server hot

Or they just send out these few blips and then nothing ever again. Like some lost frequency that never gets resolved.... Nah, that could never be.... Warp wouldn't pay for that. But that would sure be a mysterious way to go out.

I'm sure we'll hear something soon.

Sorry to sound like a dummy but what exactly would be cool about a Geogaddi repressing?

some people don't have 200 to blow on a geogaddi LP which is sad
geogaddi for everyone
