@rampancy: I understand the word thingy.  I have already won the app.  But when I did the URL ended with app#1.

So I thought there might be more words to mess with.

So are there?

I have tried what seems right but of course I'm wrong.

Hmm I don't get it.. someone here who can help me?

Oh, I put that up there because I was reading through the memo to look for more clues and just noticed that there, just now.

To be totally honest with you, I barely know anything about the Clash at all beyond Rock The Casbah - maybe a hard core Clash fan who knows their stuff inside and out would be able to see anything more in the lyrics beyond what we've sussed out already...as for me, this is where my usefulness ends...

EDIT:

If you click on The Amazon sig images, you get brought to a special site with some song lyrics on it. More of the lyrics were posted earlier. If you look closely, you see that some Things don't match up between them, and you can Get some of the differences if you compare them - you're probably Better at picking at these differences than others - anyway With that in mind, also pay attention to what other parts of that site are interactive; it's most likely interactive for a reason...with Time, you should figure it out for yourself.

Thanks though Ramp.

I know Ryan Bell, Wii  it feels like there should be something to it.

But it's very late and I am not seeing it at all.

i definitly dont understand how to do this one, i was reading this thread and i jumped from 'maybe we have to drag the words' to 'i got it!'  'me too!'  a little help?  or pm the solution?

@alexobenauer

Okay, got it
Very cool mini heist!

whats all this stuff about two ther apps around it???

In my loot it goes #91passwd thenb #10alarm clock pro!!!

this is just too much . . .

Its not that difficult when you start to play around with the words and the other things on the page. Use google/the first page of this thread if your stuck. And if you have no idea what's going on, click on my sig image.

Sweet puzzle! Too bad I just MacZOTted ACP a few weeks ago! Doh!

Meow meow meow meow

Justo: Have you found any other things or is there the 1 reward we already found?

Heh, yeah, ACP was just featured as part of the Koingo "Black Friday" bundle on MacZot last week. Maybe ACP is MacZot's new AppZapper?

Great mini-heist. Thanks for reintroducing me to that great Clash song. It's my new favourite after London Calling!

The world is a big madhouse. Think in fours.

Thanks rampancy for the lyrics. I would never have know the title of that song or even the slightest idea it was a song in the first place.

atticusrex: Just the one reward.. I was just trying to be vague for spoiling sake

Lol, Ive avoided buying ANY mac software until MH is over. I would hate to buy something we might get for free!

Has anyone noticed that double clicking on that "the clash" icon twice that it highlights the words "the streets" in the first line and then double clicking on the "the clash" icon like 4 times that it highlights the whole first line.

Also if you move the word "streets" in the first line to the garbage can that it's linked to the word "scaring" in the second line.

I don't know if there is anything significance with anything that I said, other than maybe somehow they are related to the two blank app icons surrounding the alarm clock icon?

Wait a second--could we get a current list of loot here? I feel like I'm missing a couple, because in my list is goes #8 1Passwd and #9 ACP... What apps am I missing?

ACP is #9 for me as well. Hmmm

Unless you're counting bundle discounts, my loot includes:

1. Chat Transcript Manager
2. Assignment Planner
3. Soulver
4. American History Lux
5. NotePad
6. QuickScale
7. Cha-Ching
8. 1Passwd
9. Alarm Clock Pro

Mine are like that too

Look Ma, no teeth!

I want loot 4,5,6 but i guess i wasn't at a computer at the 1.5 heist
Perhaps we'll have another chance.

Uselessness is good

As far as I know, American History Lux and NotePad are still available... See: http://macheist.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=1015

I've nopw got three copies of ACP.... two of which have paid-for lifetime upgrades (from MacZot) and one that doesn't (from here).

So, if there's anything super special in this one, somebody please post a clue.  Cause i ain't replacing an upgradable license with a single version one.

I don't get it. What words are I'm supposed to drag around and in what order - I've been trying for the past hour now and I could use some help

Thanks alot, i'll look in to it

Look in the first page of this thread. The sequence of the words have been posted. Once you've put in the 5 words, just click on the trash can, and u get your loot.

You're welcome.

Simple enough.

Makes me kind of sad that I took my image out of my sig because I wanted to avoid the stigma.

I put those five words in the trash but the page just keeps resetting, any idea what i'm doing wrong?
UPDATE: Ahhh, i got it, you have to double click "The Clash" icon after you dump the excess words in the trash.

Look at the wiki. http://mhwiki.channelblue.net/wiki/Solutions:Heist_2.5

toffer Surovec

I never had to do that.  You need to enter in the words in the proper order and click the trash and it should work fine.

thanks guys, great mini-heist

So many questions, so little cranial bandwidth...

Has anyone actually contacted him (Ryan Bell) about the Wii? I have a feeling he might become a bit more important.

Ryan Bell was one of the people listed on Apple Internal. He has a message saying, "Anyone need a Wii?"

W00t! solved it! Alarm Clock pro's mine!

Hmm, this is second app I recently bought on MacZOT... well, never mind, I will not complain about a freebie, but I hope the super-ultra-bundle at the end is not the same as in GiftZOT...

Fairies wear boots and you gotta believe me!

mmm scoretasticall!!!

I sent him a PM, but I'm waiting for a reply still...

I sent him one to, he could be fake though since he registrered today and he has no other contact information or recent posts or nothing. Seems a bit strange to me. What do you guys think?

I'm saving the heist to a movie file for those that want a REALLY easy time.

I'm guessing the "Ryan Bell" spam problem is not really a spam problem.  (I haven't seen any complaints in the forums)

I don't see a printed "Privacy Policy" to review for clues.  I haven't received any e-mails from anything MacHeist related.  (I created a "MacHeist" e-mail just for this and haven't rec'd anything on it.)

So I'm thinking... contrary to the memo... that perhaps "Ryan Bell" does in fact have some affiliation with MacHeist, but don't know what.  Or why.  And how does the Amazon figure into it?

And does the Wii really relate to anything? 

I am posing these 'cause I've got zip.

iLori: Um... I am at this moment to lazy to go back over all your posts here... but you did figure out this mini-heist right?

As for the Wii, I thought we had seen it before during the first heist when we went into the 'apple employee' area.

Just for fun I PM'ed Ryan and wrote him a letter as if I was Billy.

I am sure it won't pan out and the Ryan I sent it to could be a faker... But what the heck it was fun to compose.

You you want to read it I will PM you.

@RightOn: Dude that video rocked.  Did you use iSight or something?  How did you make it?

That was a fun mini... but I feel there is still something coming what with the two app icons and the words here come

There is just something nagging me about those two words... hmmmm

Yep, I did the last mini.  Got the ACP.  I wasn't here for Hesit 1. 

I didn't get my invite until it was over.  But yeah, I'm interested.  It just seems that memo has got to have more purpose than I am seeing.

Thanks.

I think the two linked words "scaring streets" will come in to play also.
