  1. 03[19:03] * Joins: M__ (1818b2d4@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24.24.178.212)
  2. [19:03] <M__> And how did that go?
  3. [19:04] <shaunasketches> The trip to SF?
  4. [19:04] <Cornchak__> oh boy princess
  5. [19:04] <Cornchak__> please tell me you are still on here
  6. [19:04] <Cornchak__> M
  7. [19:04] <Kaylen> Oooh.
  8. [19:04] <Kaylen> Hi M!
  9. [19:04] <M__> Yes??
  10. [19:04] <Cornchak__> shauna, you were there, too, right?
  11. [19:05] <M__> Hello, Miss Kaylen and friends.
  12. [19:05] <shaunasketches> Although it was fun, we don't think we found anything of significance
  13. [19:05] <SilverFyrefly> Hello M
  14. [19:05] <M__> Is that so?
  15. [19:05] <danagel> Hello M
  16. [19:05] <shaunasketches> We went to the Musee Mecanique and the Legion of Honor
  17. [19:05] <M__> Well. So long as you had fun, I suppose.
  18. [19:05] <M__> ...
  19. [19:05] <shaunasketches> And I'd like to think we searched both pretty thoroughly
  20. [19:05] <Cornchak__> They even consulted with grand mother
  21. [19:05] <shaunasketches> We did!
  22. [19:05] <M__> Did they?
  23. [19:06] <Cornchak__> but maybe not the right grand mother
  24. [19:06] <shaunasketches> Well, a grandmother
  25. [19:06] <SilverFyrefly> They shared the cards with fortunes on them she gave them.
  26. [19:06] <M__> I see no such cards.
  27. [19:06] <SilverFyrefly> karawheeler.tumblr.com/post/63295141160/some-shots-from-the-musee-mecanique-grandmothers
  28. [19:07] <shaunasketches> I have yet to post mine
  29. [19:07] <Kaylen> Silver beat me to it. I was just about to post the link, haha.
  30. [19:07] <shaunasketches> but that's what I was referring to
  31. [19:08] <M__> She gave you those, did she?
  32. [19:08] <shaunasketches> yep
  33. [19:08] <M__> They are beutiful.
  34. [19:08] <M__> but
  35. [19:08] <M__> with an a
  36. [19:08] <Kaylen> Haha.
  37. [19:09] <M__> You must forgive me. I am very tired, for lack of a much more suitable word.
  38. [19:09] <M__> But it is for the best, I think.
  39. [19:09] <Cornchak__> shauna, can you post yours?
  40. [19:09] <Cornchak__> both sides?
  41. [19:10] <shaunasketches> doing that right now
  42. [19:10] <M__> I have seen how far the ripples travel when I touch this pool.
  43. [19:10] <Cornchak__> wonderful
  44. [19:10] <SilverFyrefly> perhaps PrincessPeril can post the fortune side of hers as well
  45. [19:11] <danagel> We're pretty good at overthinking things at this point.
  46. [19:12] <shaunasketches> shaunasketches.tumblr.com/post/63336417519/some-photos-from-the-musee-mecanique-trip-today
  47. [19:13] <SilverFyrefly> Shauna is going to be rich, good for her.
  48. [19:13] <shaunasketches> When we got there and saw this booth, we both thought it was a perfect fit for the clue
  49. [19:14] <shaunasketches> I was so disappointed not to find anything there
  50. 01[19:14] <enaxor> but maybe you did and you don't know it yet
  51. [19:14] <Cornchak__> shauna, do you remember Princess' lucky numbers?
  52. [19:14] <shaunasketches> no, she only showed me the card once
  53. [19:14] <shaunasketches> we did it to determine that they were different on the front
  54. [19:15] <shaunasketches> the backs are the same
  55. [19:15] <Cornchak__> well, there is starlight at the top of the card
  56. [19:16] <Cornchak__> one star in particular
  57. [19:16] <Cornchak__> I just don't know how to follow that anywhere.
  58. [19:16] <Kaylen> Huh. I always assumed my birthstone was diamond, but I guess those are alternate ones.
  59. [19:16] <Kaylen> Hm.
  60. [19:16] <SilverFyrefly> It's okay. We found it!
  61. [19:16] <Cornchak__> found what?
  62. [19:16] <shaunasketches> ?
  63. [19:16] <SilverFyrefly> I think birthstones are usually by month and by assigning them to zodiac signs they slide a bit.
  64. [19:16] <SilverFyrefly> The starlight
  65. [19:16] <SilverFyrefly> It's right there on the card
  66. [19:16] <Cornchak__>
  67. [19:16] <shaunasketches> oh, haha
  68. [19:16] <danagel> M is this related to Gemini? Gemini and Mercury are very closely related.
  69. [19:17] <M__> So they are.
  70. [19:17] <M__> Friends, must I call to attention what just passed us by?
  71. [19:17] <M__> I would rather not. For many reasons.
  72. [19:17] <danagel> "Find the Starlight"?
  73. [19:18] <M__> No.
  74. [19:18] <shaunasketches> well, the first thing that popped into my head was the autumnal equinox
  75. [19:18] <summersumz> hi
  76. [19:18] <summersumz> was cooking and eating.
  77. [19:18] <M__> And off you spin.
  78. [19:18] <shaunasketches> you came back at a good time
  79. [19:19] <M__> I am afraid this is... plain.
  80. [19:19] <SilverFyrefly> September?
  81. [19:20] <M__> I am sure someone else must have seen what I have, and is heading the correct direction now.
  82. [19:20] <M__> I would hate to take from their efforts.
  83. [19:20] <M__> I think discussion would help at this point.
  84. 03[19:20] * Joins: Madejyalook (81182e22@gateway/web/freenode/ip.129.24.46.34)
  85. [19:20] <danagel> Gemini are twins - they hold each other dear.
  86. [19:20] <M__> Discussion where more can participate.
  87. [19:21] <M__> This place you have found where we now speak is useful.
  88. [19:21] <M__> But somewhat off the main drag, I heard it said once.
  89. [19:21] <M__> You do not need me.
  90. [19:21] <M__> You need you.
  91. [19:21] <Cornchak__> summer, I think maybe you don't need to go to MM tomorrow
  92. [19:21] <Cornchak__>
  93. 06[19:22] * Kaylen nodnod
  94. [19:22] <M__> Why is that?
  95. [19:23] <shaunasketches> was the fortune what we needed to get?
  96. [19:23] <Cornchak__> It seems like shauna and princess got what they needed
  97. [19:23] <Cornchak__> to me
  98. [19:23] <Kaylen> I've felt we've been relying on you too much lately when we get stuck, to be honest.
  99. [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.
  100. [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.
  101. [19:24] <M__> Did they? Where is it?
  102. [19:24] <Cornchak__> Oh. I was hoping it was their fortunes
  103. [19:24] <shaunasketches> I'm so confused
  104. [19:24] <SilverFyrefly> I think we thought it was the fortunes.
  105. [19:24] <SilverFyrefly> It's the only thing they've found by consulting a grandmother in a house where lifeless stir.
  106. [19:24] <shaunasketches> it did fit the clue extremely well
  107. [19:24] <Cornchak__> but again, maybe the other grandma
  108. [19:25] <Cornchak__> there is one dressed like a gypsy
  109. [19:25] <shaunasketches> there were several gypsy fortune tellers
  110. [19:25] <Cornchak__> but one says "get your fortune told by grandma" or something to that effect on the front glass.
  111. [19:25] <shaunasketches> none were explicitly called grandmothers that I saw
  112. [19:25] <shaunasketches> there was one other one that had playing cards
  113. [19:26] <M__> I fear I have touched the pool too much once again.
  114. [19:26] <Cornchak__> media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/02/34/84/95/arcade.jpg
  115. [19:26] <Cornchak__> this one, shauna.
  116. [19:26] <summersumz> We're no less spun off now than before. No more either.
  117. [19:26] <shaunasketches> I don't remember seeing it
  118. [19:26] <Kaylen> Guys. We're overthinking things again. Back it up.
  119. 01[19:26] <enaxor> how about the cards the grandmother uses
  120. [19:27] <Kaylen> Stop.
  121. [19:27] <Kaylen> What do we know we have and is confirmed.
  122. [19:27] <Cornchak__> the phrases from the photos
  123. [19:27] <shaunasketches> ...nothing?
  124. [19:27] <summersumz> San Francisco.
  125. [19:27] <Cornchak__> we don't have that confirmed
  126. [19:28] <M__> Do we know that anyone else is planning a trip to that city
  127. [19:28] <Cornchak__> right? just a very strong intuition
  128. [19:28] <summersumz> from the prologue photo and the return to the beginning clue
  129. [19:28] <summersumz> I work there.
  130. [19:28] <SilverFyrefly> Besides her no one else unless the other two go again or someone new joins us.
  131. 01[19:28] <enaxor> summersumz is planning one tomorrow
  132. [19:28] <summersumz> 100% that the prologue photo (with the fallen face) is SF.
  133. [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")
  134. [19:29] <M__> Then I will leave you be. If such a venture does not drain your resources.
  135. 01[19:29] <enaxor> yes it was taken on market street
  136. [19:29] <Cornchak__> is market street by union square?
  137. 01[19:29] <enaxor> in what was the wholesale district
  138. 01[19:29] <enaxor> sort of
  139. 01[19:30] <enaxor> a block or two away
  140. [19:30] <summersumz> part of Market is by Union Square.
  141. [19:30] <summersumz> The Powell BART stop is on Market.
  142. [19:30] <Cornchak__> man
  143. [19:30] <summersumz> and the closest to the Union Square.
  144. [19:30] <Cornchak__> but I REALLY want it to be in MM
  145. [19:30] <shaunasketches> I did too
  146. [19:30] <Cornchak__> I love it being in MM
  147. [19:30] <Cornchak__> it makes my heart sing
  148. [19:30] <Cornchak__> to be in MM.
  149. 01[19:31] <enaxor> lol
  150. [19:31] <Cornchak__> (my heart is weeping a bit that it wasn't grandmother's predictions)
  151. [19:31] <summersumz> There's that Alma statue there, in Union Square, right? That was a line of thought at one point?
  152. [19:31] <SilverFyrefly> it was
  153. [19:31] <Cornchak__> the lucky numbers are weird though
  154. 01[19:31] <enaxor> yes at the dewey memorial
  155. [19:31] <Cornchak__> 261-62, 63, 64, 65
  156. [19:31] <shaunasketches> how does that fit with the lifeless stirring line?
  157. [19:31] <SilverFyrefly> question is how does that relate to lifeles
  158. [19:31] <SilverFyrefly> yes that
  159. [19:32] <Cornchak__> who has lucky numbers like that?
  160. [19:32] <SilverFyrefly> is it in front of some building that might do taht?
  161. [19:32] <shaunasketches> that's why Kara and I decided not to check out Powell St BART station today
  162. [19:32] <Cornchak__> I'm going to keep chattering to myself
  163. [19:32] <shaunasketches> because it doesn't fit with the clues
  164. [19:32] <M__> What were the clues?
  165. [19:32] <PrincessPeril> (I'm back!)
  166. [19:32] <Cornchak__> PRINCESS
  167. [19:32] <Cornchak__> what are your lucky numbers?
  168. [19:33] <ohhoe> Hoorayyyyyyyyyyyy
  169. [19:33] <M__> Hello, Princess
  170. [19:33] <PrincessPeril> We did discuss Powell BART... but didn't go! Argh!
  171. [19:33] <PrincessPeril> 330-28, 50, 23, 25
  172. [19:33] <Cornchak__> those aren't as weird
  173. [19:33] <Kaylen> I still feel like things are being overthought. :c
  174. [19:33] <SilverFyrefly> the clues were Begins with a trip, consult the grandmother, house where lifeless stirs, city of fallen face
  175. [19:33] <PrincessPeril> Hello, M. I blistered for you, seeking out your starlight today.
  176. [19:33] <M__> And what was the result?
  177. [19:33] <shaunasketches> She totally did. Kara was amazing.
  178. [19:34] <ohhoe> Sightseeing!
  179. 01[19:34] <enaxor> a trip begins, consult the grand mother, a house where lifeless stir
  180. 01[19:34] <enaxor> city of fallen face
  181. [19:34] <PrincessPeril> Well, I consulted the grandmother. She informed me that amethysts were made especially for me.
  182. [19:34] <Kaylen> You begin a trip and end up in the city of fallen face?
  183. [19:34] <M__> Did she?
  184. [19:34] <M__> That does not sound like much of a consultation, I am afraid.
  185. 01[19:34] <enaxor> amethysts are protective crystals
  186. [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"...
  187. [19:36] <M__> So you did.
  188. [19:36] <M__> You followed the room's chart perfectly.
  189. [19:36] <M__> In reverse.
  190. 01[19:36] <enaxor> d "Winged Victory."
  191. [19:37] <ohhoe> gmm
  192. [19:37] <ohhoe> hmm
  193. [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
  194. [19:37] <Cornchak__> in reverse
  195. [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.
  196. [19:37] <Cornchak__> ;(
  197. [19:38] <summersumz> So I'll bring quarters.
  198. 01[19:38] <enaxor> lol
  199. [19:38] <Cornchak__> hehe
  200. [19:38] <Cornchak__> there are bill changers, summer!
  201. [19:39] <ohhoe> the mechanical laughing thing scares me
  202. [19:39] <M__> The day will come when I will not be able or willing to interfere.
  203. [19:39] <summersumz> Well, the whole Alma thing was pretty cool too.
  204. [19:39] <M__> That day starts when your next path starts.
  205. [19:39] <summersumz> learned something.
  206. [19:39] <ohhoe>
  207. [19:39] <M__> But I do not want you stuck here.
  208. [19:39] <M__> Not. Here.
  209. [19:39] <ohhoe> IRC? Here?
  210. 01[19:39] <enaxor> <M__> You followed the room's chart perfectly. <--- waht room?
  211. 01[19:39] <enaxor> MM?
  212. [19:39] <M__> Are you stuck?
  213. [19:39] <ohhoe> No I can leave.
  214. [19:40] <M__> So you can.
  215. [19:40] <M__> Leaving is next to effortless.
  216. [19:40] <SilverFyrefly> enaxor I think he means the chart we had from the rooms on minecraft
  217. [19:40] <M__> But can you then get where you need to be?
  218. [19:40] <ohhoe> I think I can eventually.
  219. 01[19:40] <enaxor> oh nm
  220. [19:40] <M__> Then I will leave you to it.
  221. [19:40] <ohhoe> Well, we can.
  222. 01[19:41] <enaxor> that't what I get for trying to prepare dinner and chat
  223. [19:41] <Kaylen> Yes, friends!
  224. [19:41] <Kaylen>
  225. [19:41] <shaunasketches> we need to know where we need to be in order to get there
  226. [19:41] <SilverFyrefly> I wish I knew if we had the key. But maybe with some more looking we will figure it out.
  227. 06[19:41] * Kaylen group hug
  228. [19:41] <SilverFyrefly> It's hard to find something when you don't know what it is.
  229. 06[19:41] * Kaylen huuugs everyone
  230. 06[19:41] * SilverFyrefly hugs back
  231. 06[19:41] * Kaylen hugs M too
  232. [19:41] <shaunasketches> thanks, Kaylen
  233. [19:42] <Kaylen> Friends. We'll get through this together. :3
  234. [19:42] <Kaylen> We'll figure it out!
  235. [19:42] <summersumz> I think, too, that M wants us to Tumblr what we know.
  236. [19:42] <summersumz> What we have tried.
  237. [19:42] <Kaylen> Of course.
  238. [19:42] <shaunasketches> and post on the forum
  239. [19:42] <Kaylen> We don't want people getting lost.
  240. [19:42] <summersumz> Our own little FTS clique.
  241. [19:42] <PrincessPeril> Yeah, I'm getting ready to make my post now. Needed dinner first, after our city (mis?)adventure.
  242. [19:42] <SilverFyrefly> it's been kept updated thus far we just need to put up today's results
  243. [19:42] <Kaylen> Haha.
  244. 06[19:42] * enaxor is already lost
  245. [19:42] <Cornchak__> summer
  246. [19:42] <Kaylen> Oh no
  247. [19:43] <M__> We have lost all but a few, I am afraid.
  248. [19:43] <Cornchak__> can you get a few fortunes from grandma?
  249. [19:43] <Kaylen> Oh no
  250. [19:43] <Kaylen> D:
  251. [19:43] <Cornchak__> see if one begins with "a trip"?
  252. [19:43] <M__> Few more than the names I see here are still with us.
  253. [19:43] <Kaylen> :c
  254. [19:43] <M__> Because we left them.
  255. [19:43] <M__> We came here.
  256. [19:43] <summersumz> sausage making
  257. [19:43] <Kaylen> We need to find them again and bring them back.
  258. [19:43] <danagel> We need to leave IRC and take this back onto Tumblr?
  259. [19:43] <ohhoe> I think so
  260. [19:44] <ohhoe> Or at least post our findings more frequently.
  261. [19:44] <M__> That is not for me to say.
  262. 06[19:44] * Kaylen nodnod
  263. [19:44] <summersumz> the big things should land there.
  264. [19:44] <M__> But you will need help where you are going.
  265. [19:44] <summersumz> we can stir and stew where we are, I think.
  266. [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.
  267. 01[19:44] <enaxor> hmm
  268. [19:44] <SilverFyrefly> I might put it on the keyhole since a lot of newbies follow/use that
  269. [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.
  270. [19:44] <danagel> I've already started following most of you there. "danagel" here.
  271. [19:44] <SilverFyrefly> and the tags have proven to be unreliable
  272. [19:44] <shaunasketches> yeah, and things get lost in the tag
  273. [19:45] <Cornchak__> M, the reason I've retreated to this room, and to the board, is because I find tumblr confounding
  274. 01[19:45] <enaxor> yes and post about this place on tumblr also
  275. [19:45] <SilverFyrefly> This too. I honestly dislike tumblr but maybe we can pull a few people away with us.
  276. [19:45] <summersumz> I don't like how hypotheses become fact there.
  277. [19:45] <M__> All places are a poor fit, I am afraid.
  278. [19:45] <danagel> it sounds like we need to leave this place entirely.
  279. [19:45] <Cornchak__> I agree with that as well, summer.
  280. [19:45] <M__> Use this place.
  281. [19:45] <M__> Bring what you find here back up.
  282. 01[19:46] <enaxor> just invite the others to join us
  283. [19:46] <M__> To the forum.
  284. [19:46] <danagel> Just spread the word...
  285. [19:46] <M__> From there to tumblr, if you so decide.
  286. [19:46] <summersumz> we were being selfish with our insights and didn't want to have someone pass the water.
  287. [19:47] <SilverFyrefly> It happened anyway
  288. [19:47] <ohhoe> what happened anyay?
  289. [19:47] <ohhoe> anyway?
  290. 01[19:47] <enaxor> some of them were being selfish maybe too
  291. [19:47] <ohhoe> Someone figured it out?
  292. [19:47] <SilverFyrefly> Passing the water
  293. [19:47] <ohhoe> i was playing video games and out of chat for a bit.
  294. [19:47] <ohhoe> seems like I missed some things.
  295. [19:47] <SilverFyrefly> So we might as well pull people in if we can. We can't control what happens.
  296. [19:47] <summersumz> indeed
  297. [19:47] <M__> You are the ones I want to come with me on this last path.
  298. 01[19:47] <enaxor> exactly
  299. [19:47] <M__> I have no problem telling you that.
  300. [19:47] <summersumz> in geocaching, they are muggles.
  301. 01[19:48] <enaxor> hehe
  302. [19:48] <SilverFyrefly> Thank you M, that is sweet of you to say.
  303. [19:48] <Kaylen> Aw, M, we want to go with you too. :3
  304. [19:48] <M__> You made it through all of this.
  305. [19:48] <M__> And that means something to me.
  306. 01[19:48] <enaxor> although I almost gave up
  307. [19:48] <ohhoe> NEVER GIVE UP
  308. [19:48] <shaunasketches> I've almost given up several times
  309. [19:48] <Kaylen> Ohhoe, does that say lettuce
  310. [19:48] <M__> You have just tonight given up. While standing in the doorway.
  311. [19:48] <ohhoe> what lettuce
  312. [19:48] <danagel> *holds Jack's hand*
  313. [19:49] <Kaylen> Nevermind
  314. [19:49] <ohhoe> did i miss a reference kaylen? haha
  315. [19:49] <M__> And turned around instead of looking around.
  316. [19:49] <summersumz> No, not given up. Resetting the compass.
  317. [19:49] <Kaylen> It was a joke from tumblr a while ago.
  318. [19:49] <ohhoe> ahhhh
  319. [19:49] <Kaylen> Anyways.
  320. [19:49] <ohhoe> You guys what did we miss?!
  321. [19:49] <ohhoe> Or do we not know.
  322. [19:49] <Cornchak__> we don;t know what we don't know ohhoe
  323. [19:49] <ohhoe> :O
  324. [19:49] <M__> You missed your key is what you missed.
  325. [19:49] <ohhoe> damn it.
  326. [19:49] <shaunasketches> Kara and I didn't look hard enought at the MM?
  327. [19:49] <ohhoe> what!
  328. [19:49] <Kaylen> Hm.
  329. 01[19:50] <enaxor> is the key still in place?
  330. [19:50] <ohhoe> Did someone else find the key, M?
  331. [19:50] <PrincessPeril> We climbed stepladders!
  332. [19:50] <M__> Or maybe you didn't.
  333. [19:50] <Cornchak__> Stepladders, for god's sake!
  334. [19:50] <Cornchak__>
  335. [19:50] <M__> I am afraid there is simply not enough information from our scouts.
  336. [19:50] <danagel> Roadtrip!
  337. [19:50] <Kaylen> :O
  338. [19:50] <summersumz> Recon is always hard on the first pass.
  339. [19:50] <SilverFyrefly> Do you two have any more photos?
  340. [19:50] <Cornchak__> so, summer, if we read the clues backwards
  341. [19:50] <shaunasketches> we didn't even know if that was the right place
  342. [19:50] <Cornchak__> then the last thing should have been "begins with a trip"
  343. [19:51] <ohhoe> hm.
  344. [19:51] <PrincessPeril> I'm typing up my Tumblr post right now in a separate tab.
  345. [19:51] <summersumz> I trip on things frequently.
  346. [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.
  347. [19:51] <Kaylen>
  348. [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""
  349. [19:51] <ohhoe> oh god no
  350. [19:51] <Cornchak__> which is a fortune-y thing to say
  351. [19:51] <Cornchak__> "A trip is in your future"
  352. [19:51] <ohhoe> i don't think we'd have to spend a lot of quarters.
  353. [19:51] <ohhoe> Lets take a step back and start over.
  354. [19:51] <ohhoe> And explore other options.
  355. [19:52] <Kaylen> That's what I've been trying to do.
  356. [19:52] <Kaylen> We're stuck in this one mindset.
  357. [19:52] <Kaylen> We need to back up
  358. 06[19:52] * enaxor hops outside the box
  359. [19:52] <ohhoe> I mean, the city of the fallen face is absolutely san francisco. So at least we have that.
  360. [19:52] <Kaylen> That's why I brought up looking at what we have.
  361. [19:52] <M__> What a very interesting thing just happened.
  362. [19:52] <Cornchak__> I would raise and say the house where lifeless stirs is absolutely a house of automota
  363. [19:53] <ohhoe> I don't know. That's kind of vague.
  364. [19:53] <Cornchak__> automata
  365. [19:53] <ohhoe> Also scary as hell and I'm glad I don't have to go there.
  366. [19:53] <Cornchak__> I am so jealous of that place.
  367. [19:53] <Kaylen> That Laughing Sal is creepy
  368. [19:53] <Kaylen> :C
  369. [19:53] <Cornchak__> If nothing else, I am definitely putting it in my travel plans.
  370. [19:53] <ohhoe> Lets forget what we think we know.
  371. [19:53] <ohhoe> And find things that we don't know yet.
  372. [19:53] <Kaylen> I agree with ohhoe.
  373. [19:53] <Cornchak__> which interesting thing, M?
  374. [19:53] <shaunasketches> Laughing Sal is super creepy
  375. [19:53] <PrincessPeril> That place is one of my favorite spots in San Francisco.
  376. 01[19:53] <enaxor> howse where lifeless stir- MM
  377. [19:53] <SilverFyrefly> I'm sure he doesn't want to tell us what was interesting
  378. [19:54] <Cornchak__> oh
  379. [19:54] <summersumz> M, this is what happens here all the time. Posit, redirect, circle, spin.
  380. [19:54] <Cornchak__> ok
  381. [19:54] <SilverFyrefly> well lets start in order
  382. [19:54] <Kaylen> Let's just, you know.
  383. [19:54] <ohhoe> If someone goes to SF tomorrow again can you eat a sushirito for me
  384. [19:54] <Kaylen> I hate to say this, but honestly let's ignore M for a moment.
  385. [19:54] <shaunasketches> yeah, sorry we can't come up with exactly the right answer on the first try
  386. [19:54] <SilverFyrefly> city of fallen face. San Francisco unless we have been horribly mistaken
  387. [19:54] <ohhoe> that is unrelated to the story. obviously.
  388. [19:54] <summersumz> as long as it isn't made of dead animals.
  389. [19:54] <Kaylen> We need to do this.
  390. [19:54] <ohhoe> We can't have been mistake.
  391. [19:54] <ohhoe> mistaken
  392. [19:54] <ohhoe> It's
  393. [19:54] <ohhoe> OH
  394. [19:54] <ohhoe> wait
  395. [19:54] <ohhoe> you guys
  396. [19:54] <ohhoe> that other photo from the prologue.
  397. [19:54] <M__> Such a clean line drawn between advance and retreat.
  398. [19:54] <danagel> Back up. Reverse.
  399. [19:55] <M__> Well. One group is correct. Find comfort in that.
  400. [19:55] <ohhoe> the photo from the prologue of jules vernon and the ventriloquist dummy.
  401. [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> begins with a trip
  402. 01[19:55] <enaxor> consult the grandmother = fortune teller
  403. [19:55] <ohhoe> ok nevermind i don't want to think about ventriloquist dummies.
  404. [19:55] <Kaylen> Haha.
  405. [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> 20000 leagues? journey to the center of the earth
  406. [19:55] <ohhoe> no
  407. [19:55] <ohhoe> that's jules verne
  408. [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> oh
  409. [19:55] <PrincessPeril> (I just posted some more pictures to Tumblr.)
  410. [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> i got REALLY excited
  411. [19:55] <ohhoe> hehe
  412. [19:55] <Kaylen> Pfft.
  413. [19:55] <SilverFyrefly> sigh
  414. [19:55] <ohhoe> ignore what i said.
  415. [19:56] <shaunasketches> oh yeah, I should post my legion of honor pics, if only for fun
  416. [19:56] <SilverFyrefly> I'd like to see, it looks pretty
  417. [19:56] <ohhoe> I'm going to go look at the FTS tags and see what everyone is thinking.
  418. [19:57] <ohhoe> Ok cool nobody besides us has posted.
  419. [19:57] <ohhoe>
  420. [19:57] <summersumz> I want to use my spreadsheet, dammmmit!
  421. [19:58] <Kaylen> Oh did you know that Musee Mecanique was featured in one of the Princess Diaries movies?
  422. [19:58] <ohhoe> maybe anne hathaway stole our key
  423. [19:58] <Kaylen> Pffft
  424. [19:59] <ohhoe> I hope it's quiet because everyone is thinking.
  425. [20:00] <ohhoe>
  426. [20:00] <Kaylen> www.youtube.com/watch?v=owwJ9Y-Wbzw 1:04 has the Grandmother predictions in the background
  427. [20:00] <Cornchak__> I am quiet because I am putting on "stars" from les mis.
  428. [20:00] <summersumz> thinkthinkthink
  429. [20:00] <PrincessPeril> STARS! IN THEIR MULTITUDES!
  430. [20:00] <Kaylen> :O
  431. 01[20:01] <enaxor> union square had a pavillion of the mechanics
  432. [20:01] <ohhoe> Okay. House where lifeless stir.
  433. [20:01] <Cornchak__> @@
  434. [20:01] <ohhoe> Do we want to take house literal?
  435. [20:01] <ohhoe> Because if so, that negates the musee.
  436. 01[20:01] <enaxor> which is gone
  437. [20:01] <ohhoe> And the legion.
  438. [20:02] <Cornchak__> enaxor, when did it have this pavillion?
  439. [20:02] <summersumz> peril and shauna, did you talk to the worker dude?
  440. 01[20:02] <enaxor> and the original dewey monument had path in the cardinal directions
  441. 01[20:02] <enaxor> foundsf.org/index.php?title=A_HISTORY_OF_UNION_SQUARE
  442. 01[20:03] <enaxor> 1868
  443. [20:03] <SilverFyrefly> Oh is that where that was? That movie is such a guilty pleasure
  444. [20:03] <Cornchak__> hm
  445. [20:03] <Cornchak__> but actual mechanics
  446. [20:03] <Cornchak__> not ROBOTS
  447. [20:03] <Cornchak__>
  448. 01[20:03] <enaxor> I know
  449. [20:03] <summersumz> But we can get the dewey monument stuff off the internet? We need a thing, yes?
  450. 01[20:03] <enaxor> but remember I'm outside the box ;P
  451. [20:03] <summersumz> or am I making that up?
  452. [20:04] <summersumz> I think I'm making that up. "/ignore"
  453. [20:04] <SilverFyrefly> ok what about SF haunted houses
  454. [20:04] <SilverFyrefly> if we're going to go that literal
  455. [20:04] <ohhoe> well.
  456. [20:04] <ohhoe> yeah literal houses.
  457. [20:04] <SilverFyrefly> since the house is before the grandmother, so the grandmother would be in the house
  458. 01[20:04] <enaxor> yes
  459. 01[20:04] <enaxor> I would think so
  460. [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?
  461. [20:05] <ohhoe> I wouldn't assume so yet
  462. [20:05] <ohhoe> Since the phrases are so vague.
  463. [20:05] <ohhoe> think of it like
  464. [20:05] <ohhoe> that pemdas math crap
  465. [20:05] <ohhoe> you start with the big thing and narrow it down
  466. [20:05] <SilverFyrefly> I think MM is still a likely place
  467. [20:05] <ohhoe> yeah
  468. [20:06] <summersumz> ok. so we'll drop that line and I'll do the field work.
  469. [20:06] <summersumz> carry on.
  470. [20:06] <SilverFyrefly> so you should comb it over, maybe a second outing will give new insight
  471. [20:06] <danagel> The Dewey Monument was called "Winged Victory" Is that where one door closes and another opens?
  472. [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.
  473. [20:06] <ohhoe> But.
  474. [20:06] <SilverFyrefly> im not seeing any haunted houses that mention a grandmother figure
  475. [20:06] <ohhoe> we don't know what 'begins with a trip' means.
  476. [20:06] <ohhoe> If that is the last step.
  477. 01[20:06] <enaxor> a phrase?
  478. [20:06] <summersumz> fortunes, words on signs, me falling on my face
  479. [20:06] <ohhoe> yeah i know it's a phrase.
  480. 01[20:07] <enaxor> or our trip begins to the orange key
  481. [20:07] <summersumz> I feel as if it is a clue too. That we have to have something that makes us Ah-HA it.
  482. [20:07] <ohhoe> well everything after the blue key up until now has been a trip to the orange key.
  483. [20:07] <SilverFyrefly> i think begins with a trip is important too
  484. [20:07] <SilverFyrefly> its self evident we're on a trip to the orange key
  485. 03[20:07] * Cornchak__ is now known as cornchakAFK
  486. [20:07] <summersumz> (I mean, obv. a clue, but I think it is more than just "the next thng is a trip")
  487. [20:07] <SilverFyrefly> with so few clues I guess i shouldn't be so fast to discount 1/4 of them
  488. [20:07] <summersumz> lol
  489. [20:07] <ohhoe> Let me look at the musee exhibits again
  490. [20:07] <SilverFyrefly> especially since it's at the end now
  491. [20:08] <SilverFyrefly> before it was "oh clearly it means travel to get the key"
  492. [20:08] <summersumz> I will talk to the worker dude too...
  493. [20:08] <ohhoe> THAT LAUGH. D:
  494. [20:08] <summersumz> "laughs in every language"
  495. [20:08] <PrincessPeril> Haha. Laughing Sal is both wonderful/terrible.
  496. 01[20:08] <enaxor> I wonder how many fortunes the grandmother has
  497. 01[20:09] <enaxor> maybe worker dude knows that
  498. [20:09] <summersumz> I will be all science up in that joint.
  499. [20:10] <ohhoe> it seems like the main worker is the man who owns it
  500. 01[20:10] <enaxor> heh
  501. [20:10] <summersumz> Esp. with the good heads up that peril and shauna have given us.
  502. [20:10] <ohhoe> so at least you won't weird him out.
  503. [20:10] <ohhoe> lol
