OK Back to the game for a sec..

Soooo, where is Josh?

Did he
A) go in search of the Coelacanth and get hijacked by evil forces? or,
b) did he pass out when he saw the pic of his dad and is in the hospital recovering from shock?or
c) was he taken before he even saw the pic of pop?

The last for sure contact we had from Josh was Dec 6th when he responded to the blog being down..
He didnt show up for the chat on Dec 10th or later and we arent really sure if he even saw mysterioso's chat or posting of his pops pic..
So, Josh may have been missing since as early as Dec 7th.. Thats over 3 weeks ago..
Unlike before when Josh didnt post for 6 weeks, this time even the Mystic Dude is concerned enuff to mention it..

Where is this going???

KBO

While we’re all waiting to enter our certificate codes at RP, I started thinking about the picture with Josh’s thumb on the comic book. Along with the kbo being crossed out in backbone, Bishopfan pointed out that the L in library and the second C in Classics are also crossed out in the same way.

I searched for kbo and found links to astronomy pages talking about Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs). These are small bodies in the outskirts of our solar system that orbit the sun beyond Neptune in the Kuiper Belt. Supposedly since Pluto has been demoted from planet status, it is now considered to be a KBO. I didn’t read in depth but I think KBOs are comets or minor planets depending on their sizes.

As far as the L and C go… I don’t know. Thinking of them as Roman numerals L = 50 and C=100. Minor planets are numbered as they are discovered. Maybe some KBO out there is numbered 50100 and we’re dealing with some being from KBO 50100.

The RP site audio mentions occultation where a foreground object covers up a background object, and some of the KBO links also talked about occultation.

Anyhow, it’s a possibility for the kbo. Here are a few links if anyone is interested:

End of the printout?

So just that.. is that the end of the printout?

If we go off of the >>>>> >>>> >>> > none

Then it would seem as if we have reached the end of the line as it were for that lead.

Also the process, "I think since we mentioned we don't know if the eggs come before the chicken" as far as Josh posts then sties updates or sties updates then Josh posts... will be a dead end?

So RP.. is the new transition?

I am thinking new website or new function...uhh..maybe.

Anyways have a nice new year =)

So does it mean to use the bacne or the kbo or like Jane said - does it just mean nothing? I can't make any sense of it with or without the binder or TROGL.

BAC since it seems the K is marked out as well.

TROGL appears in only 2 places so far.. Handwritten on one badge and on a comic book..
If it was an abbreviation for the department they worked for, wouldnt it be part of all the badges instead of handwritten on one, and, why was it written over where the picture went?
I think that whatever it stands for, its more localized... Like a code to describe that one person, A Minker and why he is different from thr rest.

That sounds good Very Happy

As far as Binder and BAC I have a feeling that it still doesn't matter. So far all of the clues have refered to items within the game with the exception of the craigs list items. From foghorn to toadfish all of the clues have been within a very small circle of items. I'm just wondering how long before thay tie the RP site to this game. Thus far they gave us the first printout that lead to the RP site but nothing else. Like they used to game for shameless advertising. Yet, the RP site has been a mute point. Not enough connection to make the site work. No clues what buttons to push, what to do other than go from mission to mission hoping something else happens when we push buttons.

I hope this game amps up soon. It's getting really stale. Coffee

I know we are all saying back binder or variations of such but I wanted to post this picture




So to me variations could very well be

BAC since it seems the K is marked out as well.

Ok...so I did not see any mention of this so it makes me think that perhaps I am way off.....in the photo with the classic story and Josh's thumb is there not a marking on the "L" in library and also what looks like marker on the second "C" in classics. Perhaps "back and binder" are not the only things we are meant to be working with on the page. What say the brain trust?

Otto Binder ist reasonable.
I even found some very slight connection between Otto Binder and Moby Dick:
Jim Shooter talks in an interview about Otto Binder and "Super-Moby Dick of Space". Even if those two doesn't seem to be related.

Maybe Binder refers to Otto Binder?

The first report of UFOs on the moon that found its way into print was in an article in Saga Magazine, authored by Otto Binder, formerly employed by a NASA contractor. In a special UFO issue of the magazine in 1972 he traced many of the reported sightings and noises seen and heard during the Apollo series.

Who was Otto Binder? He is the author of two books “Flying Saucers Are Watching Us,” published in 1969 and 1971, and “What We Really Know About UFOs,” in 1968. He authored over 300 non-fiction articles on scientific and UFO subjects, and articles in science yearbooks on chemistry, astronomy, physics and biology. He was a member of the American Rocket Society, American Interplanetary Society, National Spaceflight Association and Aerospace Writers Association.

Apparently he also wrote a lot of the Aquaman comic book stories i.e.

The Undersea Lost World (1949). Writer: Otto Binder. Art: John Daly. Aquaman helps a team of scientists explore the ocean floor, one of mankind's last frontiers of unexplored territory. This story resembles Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's sf novel The Lost World (1912), in that the characters eventually find themselves in a region filled with large prehistoric animals.

The Sunken City of Gold (1956) Aquaman is asked to lead an expedition of scientists to a region of prehistoric marine life that has suddenly emerged from the sea floor.

prehistoric marine life.... coelacanth
