Re: **FIRST EMAIL**/FRC Game Hint #2
Quote:
That all said, here is an interactive summary: 1. goto maps.google.com 2. type in the first two numbers of the game hint on post #1 3. press enter and notice that you have been directed to Copley Square somewhere in New England. The overhead view displays a large reflective building just southeast of the virtual green map pin and two large buildings that spell out EI just south of the mark. 4. Now goto street view and have a look at that obelisks in Copley Square, along with other great sights. 5. Next, have a look at post #383 of this thread, pretty darn conclusive material... maybe. Just below that, #387, makes a connection between the distance between Copley square and Paul Revere. More postings discover the connection between Copley and Paul Revere. In other words, there's SUBSTANTIAL evidence that there is something interesting about Copley Square and Paul Revere's residence. 6. There was also post #324 which took the thrid number of the clue, converted it to a date on excel and on that date in some year, Max Planck discovered the law of black body emission. Read up further on that post and realize there's a real connection between that and clue #1: the IR thingy. 7. Also, as a geek, I have to remind everyone of the philosophical connections between the clue and XKCD comic #240. Plus the connection between the comic and Dave's signature (the answer to the year's most important question...). And I think that covers it for now. I didn't want to put a 400 page summary here, thus the reason why I stop here. Conclude what you wish and have fun with it.-Joe PS: The cake is not a lie... we will get it January 5th at the FIRST Robotics Enrichment Competition Kick-off. (Sorry, I am just so happy after playing Portal in one sitting... had to make some form of reference there.) ![]() PS2: Feel free to add to this summary as you wish. |
