it is a bag that is dropped off, 1st person to get it gets it, I also have solved 3 of the 50 puzzles on Metastasis. Not a bad game but a little hard.

 

[Robbie]

Anyone gotten any of the bags yet? I live two hours out from ATL but I doubt it would be there by the time I made it over.

 

[djchristensen]

i am ready with google maps and waiting for the phoenix location to pop up

I found the Boston deaddrop! It was only three blocks from my office. The clue was "under garrison"... and there is a statue there for William Garrison.

I'm really busy with work, so this will be quick.

I found a green canvas bag, with the R2 logo on it. Inside, I found a SRPA t-shirt, an old (looking?) engineer's compass, a necklace of pearly-beads, which has a crucifix on it, and weathered ID card for John Kirkland, Capt. U.S. Army. It has a service serial @ and an EVAC code on it.

More later

Sounds sweet

 

[Robbie]

how do you enter the coordinates into google maps?

 

[adhokk7]

I'm sure I wouldn't be able to make it L.A. before anyone finds the bag there, but man, I really want to try.

On google, I'm getting the L.A. location as being Harbor-UCLA Medical Center. Is that what you guys are getting?

 

[Robbie]

Sorry guys but I suck with coords, can someone explain to me like they would a child how to plug these things into google maps to find the location? I'm not having any luck with the copy n paste thing...

 

[adhokk7]

I copied dj's coordinates and pasted them into maps.google.com, only I changed the slash to a comma. Also, I used "get directions" and started from my apartment.

cool, I looked at the La one using google earth, it looks to be in a park somewhere. I am waiting for Phoenix, come on Phoenix.

 

[djchristensen]

How come if The boston package has been found, why hasn't it come off of the list?

Yeah, I'm getting a medical center in L.A. It's about a 45 minute drive for me, so I really wanna be sure before I take off. I mean, I know I'd be wasting my time anyway, but the fun gene in me is insisting I try.

Maybe it's like the TDK Pizza Mask viral and requires the finder to verify it's been picked up somehow???

 

[Robbie]

I'm not going to try the ATL one, it's been up too long, but I have family in Raliegh and Miami so I might give those a go via the fam...

 

[djchristensen]

they still have the same 5 cities up and no updates in over an hour and a half, come on ninjas

 

[Robbie]

Kinda slow...
