What about the paper they took with them?!? didn't they have a early edition of a newspaper? maybe J8 D4 W9 and R5 are sections/pages in the paper? Maybe they're clues to a game in the entertainment section?!? what happened to that? Am I missing something?

Edit: "bring Tuesday's Red Eye" - warbrain! what did they have you bring it for, if not for the heist? did they think you didn't have enough to carry otherwise?

Atlanta, GA, all the way!

Just not while I'm still away for the holidays though....

I think the RedEye was just to show that you were in on the heist... as a way to recognize other heisters

It was darn cold out there tonite... exciting times, but to the powers that be, the trail wasn't very clear by any stretch of the imagination.  We froze out there!!!  Results of the findings should be posted shortly... hang tight

Very cool eikelben! Thanks for the big effort!

the twitter might be false, but look at this

mmm... Extra chewy

I do...but it does no good in Minneapolis

Chicago isn't THAT far... probably warmer too

FWIW, I found the locations of the three flickr photos: Google Maps.

All three sites are pretty close together.

Do you have stairs in your house?

You can download the paper from the Red Eye website. I searched the pdf for those and none came up.

I've got access to about 10 of them at the elementary school I work for

From IRC, it seems as if Warbrain will be opening the disk tonight!

I still have 2 100MB SCSI ones in addition to a 250 MB USB. (-;

He said he is getting close to his train stop then has a fifteen minute drive.  That is dedication as it is cold in the Midwest tonight!

Kudos and cock-fighting for Newport, TN! I do own a homemade Cocke Co. t-shirt, I'll have you know. I just had no idea there were mac users out in moonshine county. Rock!

As for the mini-heist, thanks to all who braved the cold. I'm originally from Mpls, and I know how badly it sucks to be tromping through the city on a cold night. Appreciate your efforts!

I actually have a zip drive sitting next to me, but I no longer have a SCSI port to plug it into! I'd have to pull my old G3 out of mothballs.

Sometimes I feel so blue
It makes me twitter.

i dunno ...

I've got a ton of them - the lab I work for has a beige G3 that's still hooked to some expensive and irreplaceable lab equipment, and it's that or floppies. 
Interesting that Whoever chose to use one, though.  I wonder if it signifies anything?

Ein jeder Engel ist schrecklich.

Probably just indicates they didn't care to "lose" it

If it's a picture of a cat with the caption "I CAN HAZ L00T NOW?", I'll be very upset.

Gotta ask because this is new stuff not done in Heist I... What is the point to the actual city heist missions?  I mean since we as a whole do not participate what is the outcome or do the 'real' city heists lead up to the actual on-line heists?

Just asking...  No biting heads off please... Thanks... LoL.

It seems to me that they serve as points of plot development and extension more than anything.

Warbrain and Crew I thank you for your efforts...  Thanks again Fellas....

What about the titles of the last two photos on the j8d4w9r5 Flickr account? d69f29071d74 and 45a121051955 could be passwords. Or combined together they can make two different 96-bit keys. Have any of those possibilities been tried to unlock the .dmg file on the disk?

What rhymes with "orange"?

update

missed the live action, too late for amsterdam (had to get up early). so only read everything now.
this way it's not as much fun as following things 'live'.
but thanks guys, for getting cold for us.

HUH?

What was in the DMG

I just got my iMac and my Powerbook is out of commission right now, so I haven't installed the Adobe CS3 suite in it yet...  But I was wondering if anyone checked the Metadata in the PDF to see if there are any clues to future items...  You need Adobe Acrobat Professional in order to read the Metadata....

Also Warbrain and his team did freeze his ass off, waste his time down there, and tried to keep us updated and figure out clues at the same time...  Sitting in your warm cozy house drinking a cup of cocoa in front of your Mac criticizing and complaining what you would have done or what they did wrong isn't cool...  They did keep us posted they did try...  One of you cozy home solvers created a false trail for these guys to follow.... It was cold out there and they were wasting there time following a false trail... That Twitter J8D4W9R5 bullsh!t.....

I give it to Warbrain and his team thank you.....

Im confused, was this solved or not? No real info either way.

This is really confusing...

Did anyone ever open the DMG?

I hope this sort of stuff happens again in MH3. They should get some contacts around other major cities of the world though, it's disappointing for those who are far away...

Lots of Macheisters in Toronto....just saying.

Well, umm, there's me. I'd be willing to dress up as Benjamin Franklin or whatever. No problem.

Or they could actually hire some actors (instead of hiring their cousins...... )

If you guys do anything in NYC again, can you please do it a bit more uptown?
Going all the way down to the Village (that's where the it was, wasn't it?) is a hassle, plus my parents wouldn't let me, anyway...

Something in Central Park would be nice.
