[*** SPOILER ALERT ***] We Are Go Folks

Actually she posted a debriefing, meaning the assignment is over. Just confirmation that we got it all, cause with all the speculation this assignment could go on for days when it only took 3 hours for the solution to be found by the first person. This doesn't mean that no one else can complete the assignment just that there isn't any more to it than has been done. Namely finding and entering 9 different URL's into the mainframe.
Thanks so much. I can't wait to see what the bundle contains. I hope they let you gift the items you already have to others like MacZOT did. I end up getting nearly every bundle that's out there - but there have been a couple I skipped because I already had most of the items in the bundle. It would be great if there was a developer that already had new templates for the new iLife and iWork. :-)

On the 7th day god relaxed, but then he was bored and created MacHeist xD

Hmmm so I did as told - copied, pasted and processed each of the nine links into the mainframe. It said it was processing after I pasted each link but in the end nothing showed up. I'm using firefox on a mac, any reason why this could be happening? All my browser settings are correct - accept cookies , Java etc etc.
Or is there something I'm doing wrong ? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Wow. MacHeist 4. I can't believe it's actually happening.
Unfortunately, it looks like I'm sitting this one out because of aggressive version requirements. It's been real.

Thank you.
If the 9 picture segments show in the mainframe you are done. Go to your loot page for the apps.

I'm having the same problem as KX55. Did all the puzzles, got all the pictures, entered them into the mainframe but nothing happened. I've tried with and without the tga extension. Did I miss it?

We have always let you do this
How, though? Can't find it anywhere.

None at the moment. I expect they will update with new ones in about a month; 25 days to be precise. Have you solved them already? If you haven't and are stuck, feel free to discuss it in this forum. Im sure people will be willing to help.

to people who do still not know what to do and some common questions.

you do not have to keep safari open.All decoding is done on their side.
For those who do not know what to do....
go to this link and click quote so you can see the full link if you cannot see it.
well, i cannot post the links for entry or there is no fun, but you can find the full all 9 list on this thread a few or more pages back. when you upload one you will see the image on the site. Do that for all until you have a big image. Then you will see the text decoding at the bottom where the text entry field used to be. Then go to loot and enjoy!
coppy and paste each link into
http://mainframe.macheist.com/
on the bottom field
For those that cannot see anything is javascript on?
Try a different browser.Once you finish there is nothing else to do except watch the timer count down and speculate.If some parts are cut off try extending your browser fully.If you cannot see it but you see the timer and have all three loot, you should be ok.

Here are step by step directions for entering the URL's into the mainframe.
If you want to spoil the fun of solving the puzzles and just want the URL's then go Here. I would advise trying to find them on your own cause it is more fun, but the choice is yours. If you would like you can download these instructions in a pdf with pictures HereDirections wrote:1. First you need to copy the original URL of the TGA.
This can be done either by copying from the forums or by copying from
the address bar in the web browser of your choice.A. Copy from the Forums:
Control-Click on the compressed
URL, then select “Copy Link”B. Copy from the address bar:
Doubble-Click on the URL in the
address bar, then press: Command-C2. Go to mainframe.macheist.com
at the bottom of the

data input box.
Click on this box

the URL will be
loaded onto the

done.Congradulations! You have successfully finished this information
gathering assignment. You should now have three apps in your loot:
Process, Mac Dust and Pandora’s Pests. See you all when the Heist
actually starts!Hope someone finds this helpful!

Except now the previous heists have expired, and www.macheist.com redirects to the mainframe... Might be shaping up for something!
January 23, 2009 5:34 pm
January 23, 2009 9:56 pm
The little mission/pre-mission/ whatever they're calling it has expired, so there's no way to get the other 2 apps for that one, but just stick around for when the real heists start and you'll get your chance for the next round of apps.

Check out some of the previous 'Forum' discussions. The picture(spiral) has been changing over the past 25 days - everyone has been guessing/waiting - 6 more days until the HeistIII begins, or more is revealed, I think?

It's the Mac way: overestimate, overcompensate, vastly underestimate. As opposed to the Windows way: just guess.
