- [19:03] <M__> And how did that go?
- [19:04] <shaunasketches> The trip to SF?
- [19:04] <Cornchak__> oh boy princess
- [19:04] <Cornchak__> please tell me you are still on here
- [19:04] <Cornchak__> M
- [19:04] <Kaylen> Oooh.
- [19:04] <Kaylen> Hi M!
- [19:04] <M__> Yes??
- [19:04] <Cornchak__> shauna, you were there, too, right?
- [19:05] <M__> Hello, Miss Kaylen and friends.
- [19:05] <shaunasketches> Although it was fun, we don't think we found anything of significance
- [19:05] <SilverFyrefly> Hello M
- [19:05] <M__> Is that so?
- [19:05] <danagel> Hello M
- [19:05] <shaunasketches> We went to the Musee Mecanique and the Legion of Honor
- [19:05] <M__> Well. So long as you had fun, I suppose.
- [19:05] <M__> ...
- [19:05] <shaunasketches> And I'd like to think we searched both pretty thoroughly
- [19:05] <Cornchak__> They even consulted with grand mother
- [19:05] <shaunasketches> We did!
- [19:05] <M__> Did they?
- [19:06] <Cornchak__> but maybe not the right grand mother
- [19:06] <shaunasketches> Well, a grandmother
- [19:06] <SilverFyrefly> They shared the cards with fortunes on them she gave them.
- [19:06] <M__> I see no such cards.
- [19:06] <SilverFyrefly> karawheeler.tumblr.com/post/63295141160/some-shots-from-the-musee-mecanique-grandmothers
- [19:07] <shaunasketches> I have yet to post mine
- [19:07] <Kaylen> Silver beat me to it. I was just about to post the link, haha.
- [19:07] <shaunasketches> but that's what I was referring to
- [19:08] <M__> She gave you those, did she?
- [19:08] <shaunasketches> yep
- [19:08] <M__> They are beutiful.
- [19:08] <M__> but
- [19:08] <M__> with an a
- [19:08] <Kaylen> Haha.
- [19:09] <M__> You must forgive me. I am very tired, for lack of a much more suitable word.
- [19:09] <M__> But it is for the best, I think.
- [19:09] <Cornchak__> shauna, can you post yours?
- [19:09] <Cornchak__> both sides?
- [19:10] <shaunasketches> doing that right now
- [19:10] <M__> I have seen how far the ripples travel when I touch this pool.
- [19:10] <Cornchak__> wonderful
- [19:10] <SilverFyrefly> perhaps PrincessPeril can post the fortune side of hers as well
- [19:11] <danagel> We're pretty good at overthinking things at this point.
- [19:12] <shaunasketches> shaunasketches.tumblr.com/post/63336417519/some-photos-from-the-musee-mecanique-trip-today
- [19:13] <SilverFyrefly> Shauna is going to be rich, good for her.
- [19:13] <shaunasketches> When we got there and saw this booth, we both thought it was a perfect fit for the clue
- [19:14] <shaunasketches> I was so disappointed not to find anything there
- 01[19:14] <enaxor> but maybe you did and you don't know it yet
- [19:14] <Cornchak__> shauna, do you remember Princess' lucky numbers?
- [19:14] <shaunasketches> no, she only showed me the card once
- [19:14] <shaunasketches> we did it to determine that they were different on the front
- [19:15] <shaunasketches> the backs are the same
- [19:15] <Cornchak__> well, there is starlight at the top of the card
- [19:16] <Cornchak__> one star in particular
- [19:16] <Cornchak__> I just don't know how to follow that anywhere.
- [19:16] <Kaylen> Huh. I always assumed my birthstone was diamond, but I guess those are alternate ones.
- [19:16] <Kaylen> Hm.
- [19:16] <SilverFyrefly> It's okay. We found it!
- [19:16] <Cornchak__> found what?
- [19:16] <shaunasketches> ?
- [19:16] <SilverFyrefly> I think birthstones are usually by month and by assigning them to zodiac signs they slide a bit.
- [19:16] <SilverFyrefly> The starlight
- [19:16] <SilverFyrefly> It's right there on the card
- [19:16] <Cornchak__>
- [19:16] <shaunasketches> oh, haha
- [19:16] <danagel> M is this related to Gemini? Gemini and Mercury are very closely related.
- [19:17] <M__> So they are.
- [19:17] <M__> Friends, must I call to attention what just passed us by?
- [19:17] <M__> I would rather not. For many reasons.
- [19:17] <danagel> "Find the Starlight"?
- [19:18] <M__> No.
- [19:18] <shaunasketches> well, the first thing that popped into my head was the autumnal equinox
- [19:18] <summersumz> hi
- [19:18] <summersumz> was cooking and eating.
- [19:18] <M__> And off you spin.
- [19:18] <shaunasketches> you came back at a good time
- [19:19] <M__> I am afraid this is... plain.
- [19:19] <SilverFyrefly> September?
- [19:20] <M__> I am sure someone else must have seen what I have, and is heading the correct direction now.
- [19:20] <M__> I would hate to take from their efforts.
- [19:20] <M__> I think discussion would help at this point.

- [19:20] <danagel> Gemini are twins - they hold each other dear.
- [19:20] <M__> Discussion where more can participate.
- [19:21] <M__> This place you have found where we now speak is useful.
- [19:21] <M__> But somewhat off the main drag, I heard it said once.
- [19:21] <M__> You do not need me.
- [19:21] <M__> You need you.
- [19:21] <Cornchak__> summer, I think maybe you don't need to go to MM tomorrow
- [19:21] <Cornchak__>
- 06[19:22] * Kaylen nodnod
- [19:22] <M__> Why is that?
- [19:23] <shaunasketches> was the fortune what we needed to get?
- [19:23] <Cornchak__> It seems like shauna and princess got what they needed
- [19:23] <Cornchak__> to me
- [19:23] <Kaylen> I've felt we've been relying on you too much lately when we get stuck, to be honest.
- [19:23] <SilverFyrefly> I think we have too. But at the same time those that live near the city don't have infinite resources to go and look for keys.
- [19:23] <summersumz> Well, there are two grandmas we have in our sights. The grandma who built the Legion, and the one who tells fortunes for 50 cents.
- [19:24] <M__> Did they? Where is it?
- [19:24] <Cornchak__> Oh. I was hoping it was their fortunes
- [19:24] <shaunasketches> I'm so confused
- [19:24] <SilverFyrefly> I think we thought it was the fortunes.
- [19:24] <SilverFyrefly> It's the only thing they've found by consulting a grandmother in a house where lifeless stir.
- [19:24] <shaunasketches> it did fit the clue extremely well
- [19:24] <Cornchak__> but again, maybe the other grandma
- [19:25] <Cornchak__> there is one dressed like a gypsy
- [19:25] <shaunasketches> there were several gypsy fortune tellers
- [19:25] <Cornchak__> but one says "get your fortune told by grandma" or something to that effect on the front glass.
- [19:25] <shaunasketches> none were explicitly called grandmothers that I saw
- [19:25] <shaunasketches> there was one other one that had playing cards
- [19:26] <M__> I fear I have touched the pool too much once again.
- [19:26] <Cornchak__> media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/02/34/84/95/arcade.jpg
- [19:26] <Cornchak__> this one, shauna.
- [19:26] <summersumz> We're no less spun off now than before. No more either.
- [19:26] <shaunasketches> I don't remember seeing it
- [19:26] <Kaylen> Guys. We're overthinking things again. Back it up.
- 01[19:26] <enaxor> how about the cards the grandmother uses
- [19:27] <Kaylen> Stop.
- [19:27] <Kaylen> What do we know we have and is confirmed.
- [19:27] <Cornchak__> the phrases from the photos
- [19:27] <shaunasketches> ...nothing?
- [19:27] <summersumz> San Francisco.
- [19:27] <Cornchak__> we don't have that confirmed
- [19:28] <M__> Do we know that anyone else is planning a trip to that city
- [19:28] <Cornchak__> right? just a very strong intuition
- [19:28] <summersumz> from the prologue photo and the return to the beginning clue
- [19:28] <summersumz> I work there.
- [19:28] <SilverFyrefly> Besides her no one else unless the other two go again or someone new joins us.
- 01[19:28] <enaxor> summersumz is planning one tomorrow
- [19:28] <summersumz> 100% that the prologue photo (with the fallen face) is SF.
- [19:29] <danagel> I feel like the conversation picked up when cornchak found the star. Find the starlight is also the name of this forum ("this place where we now speak is useful")
- [19:29] <M__> Then I will leave you be. If such a venture does not drain your resources.
- 01[19:29] <enaxor> yes it was taken on market street
- [19:29] <Cornchak__> is market street by union square?
- 01[19:29] <enaxor> in what was the wholesale district
- 01[19:29] <enaxor> sort of
- 01[19:30] <enaxor> a block or two away
- [19:30] <summersumz> part of Market is by Union Square.
- [19:30] <summersumz> The Powell BART stop is on Market.
- [19:30] <Cornchak__> man
- [19:30] <summersumz> and the closest to the Union Square.
- [19:30] <Cornchak__> but I REALLY want it to be in MM
- [19:30] <shaunasketches> I did too
- [19:30] <Cornchak__> I love it being in MM
- [19:30] <Cornchak__> it makes my heart sing
- [19:30] <Cornchak__> to be in MM.
- 01[19:31] <enaxor> lol
- [19:31] <Cornchak__> (my heart is weeping a bit that it wasn't grandmother's predictions)
- [19:31] <summersumz> There's that Alma statue there, in Union Square, right? That was a line of thought at one point?
- [19:31] <SilverFyrefly> it was
- [19:31] <Cornchak__> the lucky numbers are weird though
- 01[19:31] <enaxor> yes at the dewey memorial
- [19:31] <Cornchak__> 261-62, 63, 64, 65
- [19:31] <shaunasketches> how does that fit with the lifeless stirring line?
- [19:31] <SilverFyrefly> question is how does that relate to lifeles
- [19:31] <SilverFyrefly> yes that
- [19:32] <Cornchak__> who has lucky numbers like that?
- [19:32] <SilverFyrefly> is it in front of some building that might do taht?
- [19:32] <shaunasketches> that's why Kara and I decided not to check out Powell St BART station today
- [19:32] <Cornchak__> I'm going to keep chattering to myself
- [19:32] <shaunasketches> because it doesn't fit with the clues
- [19:32] <M__> What were the clues?
- [19:32] <PrincessPeril> (I'm back!)
- [19:32] <Cornchak__> PRINCESS
- [19:32] <Cornchak__> what are your lucky numbers?
- [19:33] <ohhoe> Hoorayyyyyyyyyyyy
- [19:33] <M__> Hello, Princess
- [19:33] <PrincessPeril> We did discuss Powell BART... but didn't go! Argh!
- [19:33] <PrincessPeril> 330-28, 50, 23, 25
- [19:33] <Cornchak__> those aren't as weird
- [19:33] <Kaylen> I still feel like things are being overthought. :c
- [19:33] <SilverFyrefly> the clues were Begins with a trip, consult the grandmother, house where lifeless stirs, city of fallen face
- [19:33] <PrincessPeril> Hello, M. I blistered for you, seeking out your starlight today.
- [19:33] <M__> And what was the result?
- [19:33] <shaunasketches> She totally did. Kara was amazing.
- [19:34] <ohhoe> Sightseeing!
- 01[19:34] <enaxor> a trip begins, consult the grand mother, a house where lifeless stir
- 01[19:34] <enaxor> city of fallen face
- [19:34] <PrincessPeril> Well, I consulted the grandmother. She informed me that amethysts were made especially for me.
- [19:34] <Kaylen> You begin a trip and end up in the city of fallen face?
- [19:34] <M__> Did she?
- [19:34] <M__> That does not sound like much of a consultation, I am afraid.
- 01[19:34] <enaxor> amethysts are protective crystals
- [19:36] <danagel> we began a trip, consulted a grandmother in a house where lifeless stirs in a city of the fallen face and "found the starlight"...
- [19:36] <M__> So you did.
- [19:36] <M__> You followed the room's chart perfectly.
- [19:36] <M__> In reverse.
- 01[19:36] <enaxor> d "Winged Victory."
- [19:37] <ohhoe> gmm
- [19:37] <ohhoe> hmm
- [19:37] <ohhoe> so it's in the city of the fallen face, in a house where lifeless stirs, consult a grandmother and begin a trip
- [19:37] <Cornchak__> in reverse
- [19:37] <danagel> We went to a city of the fallen face, to the house where lifeless stirs, consulted a grandmother and are beginning a journey to find the starlight.
- [19:37] <Cornchak__> ;(
- [19:38] <summersumz> So I'll bring quarters.
- 01[19:38] <enaxor> lol
- [19:38] <Cornchak__> hehe
- [19:38] <Cornchak__> there are bill changers, summer!
- [19:39] <ohhoe> the mechanical laughing thing scares me
- [19:39] <M__> The day will come when I will not be able or willing to interfere.
- [19:39] <summersumz> Well, the whole Alma thing was pretty cool too.
- [19:39] <M__> That day starts when your next path starts.
- [19:39] <summersumz> learned something.
- [19:39] <ohhoe>
- [19:39] <M__> But I do not want you stuck here.
- [19:39] <M__> Not. Here.
- [19:39] <ohhoe> IRC? Here?
- 01[19:39] <enaxor> <M__> You followed the room's chart perfectly. <--- waht room?
- 01[19:39] <enaxor> MM?
- [19:39] <M__> Are you stuck?
- [19:39] <ohhoe> No I can leave.
- [19:40] <M__> So you can.
- [19:40] <M__> Leaving is next to effortless.
- [19:40] <SilverFyrefly> enaxor I think he means the chart we had from the rooms on minecraft
- [19:40] <M__> But can you then get where you need to be?
- [19:40] <ohhoe> I think I can eventually.
- 01[19:40] <enaxor> oh nm
- [19:40] <M__> Then I will leave you to it.
- [19:40] <ohhoe> Well, we can.
- 01[19:41] <enaxor> that't what I get for trying to prepare dinner and chat
- [19:41] <Kaylen> Yes, friends!
- [19:41] <Kaylen>
- [19:41] <shaunasketches> we need to know where we need to be in order to get there
- [19:41] <SilverFyrefly> I wish I knew if we had the key. But maybe with some more looking we will figure it out.
- 06[19:41] * Kaylen group hug
- [19:41] <SilverFyrefly> It's hard to find something when you don't know what it is.
- 06[19:41] * Kaylen huuugs everyone
- 06[19:41] * SilverFyrefly hugs back
- 06[19:41] * Kaylen hugs M too
- [19:41] <shaunasketches> thanks, Kaylen
- [19:42] <Kaylen> Friends. We'll get through this together. :3
- [19:42] <Kaylen> We'll figure it out!
- [19:42] <summersumz> I think, too, that M wants us to Tumblr what we know.
- [19:42] <summersumz> What we have tried.
- [19:42] <Kaylen> Of course.
- [19:42] <shaunasketches> and post on the forum
- [19:42] <Kaylen> We don't want people getting lost.
- [19:42] <summersumz> Our own little FTS clique.
- [19:42] <PrincessPeril> Yeah, I'm getting ready to make my post now. Needed dinner first, after our city (mis?)adventure.
- [19:42] <SilverFyrefly> it's been kept updated thus far we just need to put up today's results
- [19:42] <Kaylen> Haha.
- 06[19:42] * enaxor is already lost
- [19:42] <Cornchak__> summer
- [19:42] <Kaylen> Oh no
- [19:43] <M__> We have lost all but a few, I am afraid.
- [19:43] <Cornchak__> can you get a few fortunes from grandma?
- [19:43] <Kaylen> Oh no
- [19:43] <Kaylen> D:
- [19:43] <Cornchak__> see if one begins with "a trip"?
- [19:43] <M__> Few more than the names I see here are still with us.
- [19:43] <Kaylen> :c
- [19:43] <M__> Because we left them.
- [19:43] <M__> We came here.
- [19:43] <summersumz> sausage making
- [19:43] <Kaylen> We need to find them again and bring them back.
- [19:43] <danagel> We need to leave IRC and take this back onto Tumblr?
- [19:43] <ohhoe> I think so
- [19:44] <ohhoe> Or at least post our findings more frequently.
- [19:44] <M__> That is not for me to say.
- 06[19:44] * Kaylen nodnod
- [19:44] <summersumz> the big things should land there.
- [19:44] <M__> But you will need help where you are going.
- [19:44] <summersumz> we can stir and stew where we are, I think.
- [19:44] <SilverFyrefly> I kind of thought we were posting pretty well. Everything we've found is on tumblr. But maybe I'll try to draft a summary post.
- 01[19:44] <enaxor> hmm
- [19:44] <SilverFyrefly> I might put it on the keyhole since a lot of newbies follow/use that
- [19:44] <ohhoe> I also think there's a lot of people that brainstorm alone, and don't check the tags when they post things.
- [19:44] <danagel> I've already started following most of you there. "danagel" here.
- [19:44] <SilverFyrefly> and the tags have proven to be unreliable
- [19:44] <shaunasketches> yeah, and things get lost in the tag
- [19:45] <Cornchak__> M, the reason I've retreated to this room, and to the board, is because I find tumblr confounding
- 01[19:45] <enaxor> yes and post about this place on tumblr also
- [19:45] <SilverFyrefly> This too. I honestly dislike tumblr but maybe we can pull a few people away with us.
- [19:45] <summersumz> I don't like how hypotheses become fact there.
- [19:45] <M__> All places are a poor fit, I am afraid.
- [19:45] <danagel> it sounds like we need to leave this place entirely.
- [19:45] <Cornchak__> I agree with that as well, summer.
- [19:45] <M__> Use this place.
- [19:45] <M__> Bring what you find here back up.
- 01[19:46] <enaxor> just invite the others to join us
- [19:46] <M__> To the forum.
- [19:46] <danagel> Just spread the word...
- [19:46] <M__> From there to tumblr, if you so decide.
- [19:46] <summersumz> we were being selfish with our insights and didn't want to have someone pass the water.
- [19:47] <SilverFyrefly> It happened anyway
- [19:47] <ohhoe> what happened anyay?
- [19:47] <ohhoe> anyway?
- 01[19:47] <enaxor> some of them were being selfish maybe too
- [19:47] <ohhoe> Someone figured it out?
- [19:47] <SilverFyrefly> Passing the water
- [19:47] <ohhoe> i was playing video games and out of chat for a bit.
- [19:47] <ohhoe> seems like I missed some things.
- [19:47] <SilverFyrefly> So we might as well pull people in if we can. We can't control what happens.
- [19:47] <summersumz> indeed
- [19:47] <M__> You are the ones I want to come with me on this last path.
- 01[19:47] <enaxor> exactly
- [19:47] <M__> I have no problem telling you that.
- [19:47] <summersumz> in geocaching, they are muggles.
- 01[19:48] <enaxor> hehe
- [19:48] <SilverFyrefly> Thank you M, that is sweet of you to say.
- [19:48] <Kaylen> Aw, M, we want to go with you too. :3
- [19:48] <M__> You made it through all of this.
- [19:48] <M__> And that means something to me.
- 01[19:48] <enaxor> although I almost gave up
- [19:48] <ohhoe> NEVER GIVE UP
- [19:48] <shaunasketches> I've almost given up several times
- [19:48] <Kaylen> Ohhoe, does that say lettuce
- [19:48] <M__> You have just tonight given up. While standing in the doorway.
- [19:48] <ohhoe> what lettuce
- [19:48] <danagel> *holds Jack's hand*
- [19:49] <Kaylen> Nevermind
- [19:49] <ohhoe> did i miss a reference kaylen? haha
- [19:49] <M__> And turned around instead of looking around.
- [19:49] <summersumz> No, not given up. Resetting the compass.
- [19:49] <Kaylen> It was a joke from tumblr a while ago.
- [19:49] <ohhoe> ahhhh
- [19:49] <Kaylen> Anyways.
- [19:49] <ohhoe> You guys what did we miss?!
- [19:49] <ohhoe> Or do we not know.
- [19:49] <Cornchak__> we don;t know what we don't know ohhoe
- [19:49] <ohhoe> :O
- [19:49] <M__> You missed your key is what you missed.
- [19:49] <ohhoe> damn it.
- [19:49] <shaunasketches> Kara and I didn't look hard enought at the MM?
- [19:49] <ohhoe> what!
- [19:49] <Kaylen> Hm.
- 01[19:50] <enaxor> is the key still in place?
- [19:50] <ohhoe> Did someone else find the key, M?
- [19:50] <PrincessPeril> We climbed stepladders!
- [19:50] <M__> Or maybe you didn't.
- [19:50] <Cornchak__> Stepladders, for god's sake!
- [19:50] <Cornchak__>
- [19:50] <M__> I am afraid there is simply not enough information from our scouts.
- [19:50] <danagel> Roadtrip!
- [19:50] <Kaylen> :O
- [19:50] <summersumz> Recon is always hard on the first pass.
- [19:50] <SilverFyrefly> Do you two have any more photos?
- [19:50] <Cornchak__> so, summer, if we read the clues backwards
- [19:50] <shaunasketches> we didn't even know if that was the right place
- [19:50] <Cornchak__> then the last thing should have been "begins with a trip"
- [19:51] <ohhoe> hm.
- [19:51] <PrincessPeril> I'm typing up my Tumblr post right now in a separate tab.
- [19:51] <summersumz> I trip on things frequently.
- [19:51] <SilverFyrefly> Anything else you took? Apparently my message of "take anything that isn't nailed down" was sent without thought of unfortunate legal implications.
- [19:51] <Kaylen>
- [19:51] <Cornchak__> which I would read to mean "pump quarters into grandmother as long as you feel ok about it and hope she gives you a fortune that starts with "a trip""
- [19:51] <ohhoe> oh god no
- [19:51] <Cornchak__> which is a fortune-y thing to say
- [19:51] <Cornchak__> "A trip is in your future"
- [19:51] <ohhoe> i don't think we'd have to spend a lot of quarters.
- [19:51] <ohhoe> Lets take a step back and start over.
- [19:51] <ohhoe> And explore other options.
- [19:52] <Kaylen> That's what I've been trying to do.
- [19:52] <Kaylen> We're stuck in this one mindset.
- [19:52] <Kaylen> We need to back up
- 06[19:52] * enaxor hops outside the box
- [19:52] <ohhoe> I mean, the city of the fallen face is absolutely san francisco. So at least we have that.
- [19:52] <Kaylen> That's why I brought up looking at what we have.
- [19:52] <M__> What a very interesting thing just happened.
- [19:52] <Cornchak__> I would raise and say the house where lifeless stirs is absolutely a house of automota
- [19:53] <ohhoe> I don't know. That's kind of vague.
- [19:53] <Cornchak__> automata
- [19:53] <ohhoe> Also scary as hell and I'm glad I don't have to go there.
- [19:53] <Cornchak__> I am so jealous of that place.
- [19:53] <Kaylen> That Laughing Sal is creepy
- [19:53] <Kaylen> :C
- [19:53] <Cornchak__> If nothing else, I am definitely putting it in my travel plans.
- [19:53] <ohhoe> Lets forget what we think we know.
- [19:53] <ohhoe> And find things that we don't know yet.
- [19:53] <Kaylen> I agree with ohhoe.
- [19:53] <Cornchak__> which interesting thing, M?
- [19:53] <shaunasketches> Laughing Sal is super creepy
- [19:53] <PrincessPeril> That place is one of my favorite spots in San Francisco.
- 01[19:53] <enaxor> howse where lifeless stir- MM
- [19:53] <SilverFyrefly> I'm sure he doesn't want to tell us what was interesting
- [19:54] <Cornchak__> oh
- [19:54] <summersumz> M, this is what happens here all the time. Posit, redirect, circle, spin.
- [19:54] <Cornchak__> ok
- [19:54] <SilverFyrefly> well lets start in order
- [19:54] <Kaylen> Let's just, you know.
- [19:54] <ohhoe> If someone goes to SF tomorrow again can you eat a sushirito for me
- [19:54] <Kaylen> I hate to say this, but honestly let's ignore M for a moment.
- [19:54] <shaunasketches> yeah, sorry we can't come up with exactly the right answer on the first try
- [19:54] <SilverFyrefly> city of fallen face. San Francisco unless we have been horribly mistaken
- [19:54] <ohhoe> that is unrelated to the story. obviously.
- [19:54] <summersumz> as long as it isn't made of dead animals.
- [19:54] <Kaylen> We need to do this.
- [19:54] <ohhoe> We can't have been mistake.
- [19:54] <ohhoe> mistaken
- [19:54] <ohhoe> It's
- [19:54] <ohhoe> OH
- [19:54] <ohhoe> wait
- [19:54] <ohhoe> you guys
- [19:54] <ohhoe> that other photo from the prologue.
- [19:54] <M__> Such a clean line drawn between advance and retreat.
- [19:54] <danagel> Back up. Reverse.
- [19:55] <M__> Well. One group is correct. Find comfort in that.
- [19:55] <ohhoe> the photo from the prologue of jules vernon and the ventriloquist dummy.
- [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> begins with a trip
- 01[19:55] <enaxor> consult the grandmother = fortune teller
- [19:55] <ohhoe> ok nevermind i don't want to think about ventriloquist dummies.
- [19:55] <Kaylen> Haha.
- [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> 20000 leagues? journey to the center of the earth
- [19:55] <ohhoe> no
- [19:55] <ohhoe> that's jules verne
- [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> oh
- [19:55] <PrincessPeril> (I just posted some more pictures to Tumblr.)
- [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> i got REALLY excited
- [19:55] <ohhoe> hehe
- [19:55] <Kaylen> Pfft.
- [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> sigh
- [19:55] <ohhoe> ignore what i said.
- [19:56] <shaunasketches> oh yeah, I should post my legion of honor pics, if only for fun
- [19:56] <SilverFyrefly> I'd like to see, it looks pretty
- [19:56] <ohhoe> I'm going to go look at the FTS tags and see what everyone is thinking.
- [19:57] <ohhoe> Ok cool nobody besides us has posted.
- [19:57] <ohhoe>
- [19:57] <summersumz> I want to use my spreadsheet, dammmmit!
- [19:58] <Kaylen> Oh did you know that Musee Mecanique was featured in one of the Princess Diaries movies?
- [19:58] <ohhoe> maybe anne hathaway stole our key
- [19:58] <Kaylen> Pffft
- [19:59] <ohhoe> I hope it's quiet because everyone is thinking.
- [20:00] <ohhoe>
- [20:00] <Kaylen> www.youtube.com/watch?v=owwJ9Y-Wbzw 1:04 has the Grandmother predictions in the background
- [20:00] <Cornchak__> I am quiet because I am putting on "stars" from les mis.
- [20:00] <summersumz> thinkthinkthink
- [20:00] <PrincessPeril> STARS! IN THEIR MULTITUDES!
- [20:00] <Kaylen> :O
- 01[20:01] <enaxor> union square had a pavillion of the mechanics
- [20:01] <ohhoe> Okay. House where lifeless stir.
- [20:01] <Cornchak__> @@
- [20:01] <ohhoe> Do we want to take house literal?
- [20:01] <ohhoe> Because if so, that negates the musee.
- 01[20:01] <enaxor> which is gone
- [20:01] <ohhoe> And the legion.
- [20:02] <Cornchak__> enaxor, when did it have this pavillion?
- [20:02] <summersumz> peril and shauna, did you talk to the worker dude?
- 01[20:02] <enaxor> and the original dewey monument had path in the cardinal directions
- 01[20:02] <enaxor> foundsf.org/index.php?title=A_HISTORY_OF_UNION_SQUARE
- 01[20:03] <enaxor> 1868
- [20:03] <SilverFyrefly> Oh is that where that was? That movie is such a guilty pleasure
- [20:03] <Cornchak__> hm
- [20:03] <Cornchak__> but actual mechanics
- [20:03] <Cornchak__> not ROBOTS
- [20:03] <Cornchak__>
- 01[20:03] <enaxor> I know
- [20:03] <summersumz> But we can get the dewey monument stuff off the internet? We need a thing, yes?
- 01[20:03] <enaxor> but remember I'm outside the box ;P
- [20:03] <summersumz> or am I making that up?
- [20:04] <summersumz> I think I'm making that up. "/ignore"
- [20:04] <SilverFyrefly> ok what about SF haunted houses
- [20:04] <SilverFyrefly> if we're going to go that literal
- [20:04] <ohhoe> well.
- [20:04] <ohhoe> yeah literal houses.
- [20:04] <SilverFyrefly> since the house is before the grandmother, so the grandmother would be in the house
- 01[20:04] <enaxor> yes
- 01[20:04] <enaxor> I would think so
- [20:05] <summersumz> So I think that I am going to the MM tomorrow (engineer field trip, because I'm a rad boss), and these other ideas can be explored assuming that the MM is a dead end?
- [20:05] <ohhoe> I wouldn't assume so yet
- [20:05] <ohhoe> Since the phrases are so vague.
- [20:05] <ohhoe> think of it like
- [20:05] <ohhoe> that pemdas math crap
- [20:05] <ohhoe> you start with the big thing and narrow it down
- [20:05] <SilverFyrefly> I think MM is still a likely place
- [20:05] <ohhoe> yeah
- [20:06] <summersumz> ok. so we'll drop that line and I'll do the field work.
- [20:06] <summersumz> carry on.
- [20:06] <SilverFyrefly> so you should comb it over, maybe a second outing will give new insight
- [20:06] <danagel> The Dewey Monument was called "Winged Victory" Is that where one door closes and another opens?
- [20:06] <ohhoe> you have the whole city of SF. then you have to find out what the house where lifeless stir means. we're assuming musee. Consult the grandmother. we think we know what the grandmother means.
- [20:06] <ohhoe> But.
- [20:06] <SilverFyrefly> im not seeing any haunted houses that mention a grandmother figure
- [20:06] <ohhoe> we don't know what 'begins with a trip' means.
- [20:06] <ohhoe> If that is the last step.
- 01[20:06] <enaxor> a phrase?
- [20:06] <summersumz> fortunes, words on signs, me falling on my face
- [20:06] <ohhoe> yeah i know it's a phrase.
- 01[20:07] <enaxor> or our trip begins to the orange key
- [20:07] <summersumz> I feel as if it is a clue too. That we have to have something that makes us Ah-HA it.
- [20:07] <ohhoe> well everything after the blue key up until now has been a trip to the orange key.
- [20:07] <SilverFyrefly> i think begins with a trip is important too
- [20:07] <SilverFyrefly> its self evident we're on a trip to the orange key
- 03[20:07] * Cornchak__ is now known as cornchakAFK
- [20:07] <summersumz> (I mean, obv. a clue, but I think it is more than just "the next thng is a trip")
- [20:07] <SilverFyrefly> with so few clues I guess i shouldn't be so fast to discount 1/4 of them
- [20:07] <summersumz> lol
- [20:07] <ohhoe> Let me look at the musee exhibits again
- [20:07] <SilverFyrefly> especially since it's at the end now
- [20:08] <SilverFyrefly> before it was "oh clearly it means travel to get the key"
- [20:08] <summersumz> I will talk to the worker dude too...
- [20:08] <ohhoe> THAT LAUGH. D:
- [20:08] <summersumz> "laughs in every language"
- [20:08] <PrincessPeril> Haha. Laughing Sal is both wonderful/terrible.
- 01[20:08] <enaxor> I wonder how many fortunes the grandmother has
- 01[20:09] <enaxor> maybe worker dude knows that
- [20:09] <summersumz> I will be all science up in that joint.
- [20:10] <ohhoe> it seems like the main worker is the man who owns it
- 01[20:10] <enaxor> heh
- [20:10] <summersumz> Esp. with the good heads up that peril and shauna have given us.
- [20:10] <ohhoe> so at least you won't weird him out.
- [20:10] <ohhoe> lol
