Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

These numbers are more confusing than Hurley's!

Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

I think this is a stretch... It probably something simple we just can't see it

Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

Yeah, but you can't divide the numbers by 3 or 5.

Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

I think Ars' point is that they're not just groups of four. putting in 10720 and 107 also gets human genes.

Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

Could you elaborate, Ars. Not sure what your point is.

Well... in groups of four, they're all human genes... still, not sure where this gets us...

Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

The problem is those numbers came about by starting at 1 and counting up. I don't know that they mean anything.

A link to the site would be helpful...

sorry about that here it is:

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?db=gene&term=1072

i came across this by googling 1072 then selecting the first link that mentioned genes in it. once there i started trying all the following 4 digit sets.

My first thought was to find a way to take it back to the album theme... I wonder if it could have anything to do with genetics? The numbers corresponding to letters could make a genetic code, possibly.


yea if you break it down into groups of four, then google it you will see that almost every set is a gene code.
--------------------
I don't have any knowledge of genetics but I found a site that lets you enter gene codes and it shows information on that particular gene code...don't know how it works though anyway....every set of 4 #'s is a gene code for humans

or not.. nothing really fits..

if you were to work with this with just the regular 1072...etc code, this would be the same as assigning 1 to A, 2 to B, etc. if you look. So either way I dont think this works. It seems like if this is going to translate into something, it's not going to be something as simple as this or somethin say, like Leetspeak, which i did translate and turned out like this:

1072010001501315103810003300?
i o tzo iooo i so ie is i oeb iooo eeoo

6011613839459321251501500117
go ii g ie begasgez i zs is oi sooi i t


there's other combinations there such as 1 and 2 = R instead of i and z. still doesnt get anywhere really.

Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

sunshine...can u check ur album cover and see what your second stamp from the left reads? six pence or six senses. just curious

Mine says "six senses shall fail", but I am off to the brainstorming thread because I am a brainstorming fuhreak!

[RckNorCal425]

Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

Maybe you guys should start a thread for general brainstorming, and keep the discussion in this thread related to the numbers?
Just a suggestion

good Idea, Done!

Re: Treasure Hunt: Clue #1

It actually says 94109

Either way...La Calle de la Fundacion is now known as Grant Street/Avenue and it's located in 94108...not 94109.

Definitely future clue related, I'd say....besides, there's like 5 differences between that picture and the actual CD cover.

No relation to the numbers though as far as I can tell.
