Yes- was agreeing with you because you said if you recalled. So was confirming should you have been looking for a confirmation of yr sanity.

Lol...Ok... Appologies. It seems I'm always looking for confirmation of sanity.

Me as well

So is everyone solid yet on 699742 being played at RoughTrade for the first spot? Or are we waiting for some other sort of confirmation?

Here's different recording of it c/o Robert Smeets: http://soundcloud.com/honest-twit/loadingbaycode-xxxxxx

I'm sold on NPR. I go back and forth on the "word key" but it's making more and more sense:

1977 is also the year Close Encounters came out, and those same famous notes are heard at the start of each message. Tonight's tweet from Rough Trade was a quote from that film (the signing sun quote).

so i think 1977 represents the call sign, heard before the clues.

then we have those snow references on NPR, and the attempts to plant the number in the first position through their website and wikipedia. i know that was largely written off, but it makes more sense now.

so i think we have the year first, and then the number of words succeeding it do total six. i still have no idea how the other words fit, but they may just be there as a fail safe if they needed a second way to communicate the placement. it might be the only key we need, after the last clue is revealed.

I feel let down by today/tonight. Nothing seemed concrete, especially the lack of sound/confirmation of the numbers. Up til now every clue had that "official stamp" on it. Tonight just had a Warp sticker, some visuals and an unclear recording of a potentially already broadcasted clue- if yr gonna make it clear this time, why all the uncertainty as to what numbers were heard? Plus, it didn't have that "this is for sure legit" sound/feel/quality to it...

BUT- if it wasn't legit, why the sudden stop in messaging? So that leaves me unsure as well- making me want to think this was something.

So- to answer yr question directly I feel like some other sort of confirmation would be nice.

I'm left feeling at the moment.

Greetings,

First time posting but have been reading for a while. This whole thing has me really excited. I still can't get over how recently this all occurred after everyone was so pissed about being duped by FACT magazine on April Fool's day.

I'm also starting to really think that the 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' connection needs further consideration. There are several thread topics moving in this general direction but I really like tublocane's interpretation and finally felt I had to chime in.

I think it is also very possible that the rough trade quote from the movie was sort of retracted because maybe it was too good of a clue.

If you listen to the audio rough trade put on soundcloud of the sold record you can here the notes play through the number reading.

Also another member posted some of the wav files on top of each other and it is clearer that it is the music from the movie but possibly played by boc or with lots of fx

I think the 1977 snow computing amateur footage beards synthesizer could all relate to a connection between the movie and also something to do with the fact that many clues indeed were found on amateur (you tube) footage. Although the scene with the music does include beards and synthesizers, haha

It may be a clue that like in the movie, once the numbers are known they need to be repeated or reentered like the notes for the 'hand shake' between the scientists and ufo in order to open something

Maybe there is no connection at all though too. I think these kind of puzzles sometimes help the mid make connections that are not there. The most exciting part about the whole thing is that when it's all over we are all likely to be very happy with what it leads to!

Cheers

I agree on needing more confirmation.... I was asking in hopes to get more of general feel of the forum, because yeah, it does feel incomplete and not totally agreed on. But I do feel that this was a legit part broadcast. Maybe they were planning on us being able to audibly hear the transmission better than we were able too. I'm sure they'll make it clear with the next part and it will fall more into place. I don't feel it's totally confirmed, but I don't feel let down either..... But I know what you mean. More like disoriented at the moment.

The flags in the projection look similar to UN flags, no? There are UN flags in CE3K.

36 is a triangular number

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_number



assuming the missing number is 259259, the 2s and the 5s would go at the bottom. the 9s form an eye with a 6 eye in the middle. Completely totally wrong I'm sure, but I think there is something to this triangle/NCD thing, given the New Clear Dawn 1977 video:

We have several sources of the recording, they are clearly the NPR sequence. You can even superimpose them together, perfect match. Strike One.

The noises also that surrounds the call sign and numbers are the same that were in the NPR broadcast, which was unique to that one. Strike Two

The way the numbers, even if unclear to some come out indicate a pattern with some other numbers VERY discernable, it again matches the NPR sequence. Strike Three

I am 100% convinced that it is the NPR sequence, there is absolutely NO doubt about it.

The display also showed the position of that sequence to be number one.

Why was it so hard to decipher? I believe that because we already had the original broadcast sequence in hand they knew we had a reference point and would make it out, Not everything needs to be easy It is far more thrilling when it takes a bit of work.

Yes, this is all what I was thinking... but the forum seemed divided and the banner wasn't changed.... But Yes I agree.

My whole thing was if tonight was legit... There was nothing really absolute about it- a Warp sticker, visuals and a poor re-broadcast of known numbers (with a position IF it was real). It does seem legit based on extent of effort and whatnot, but my point was I would have liked a more concrete sign, because wasn't this just done at some building across from RT showing visuals and re-playng the NPR numbers? I did also say it would would be odd if there was a gap in messaging, which is why I said I wanted more of an official stamp so to speak.

It's late here and I've been indulging in beverages, so maybe I'm a bit out of sorts...

Annnnnd the banner has been updated. Nice.

Todays clue shows that shit is not set in stone. Since they replayed the NPR clue with clarification as to what slot the numbers go in, then it shows that they're not following some time-table leading to a specific release date unless that's way in the future. I think that if anything, todays hint shows that at the end of this we'll reach something concrete and it might even end with a release rather than a release date.

i am still not positive about hearing any 6 in the beginning of the code
not in the first recording and not in any other to be honest
the code is the NPR code but i hear a 2 in the beginning not a six at all.

gallery at number six is the name of last's night location
what if we received 299742 as the sixth number which is at position 1 as hinted?

just trying to make sense out of this.

i know, i read this before.
still i can't hear the six in any recording.

it can't be a coincidence that the location's name is gallery at number six.
they planned this carefully and with foresight.
