So that was really a baseball diamond we were looking at?

MJ4H · 09-03-2008, 05:24 PM

Looks that way to me. I would've given credit for it. The baselines are pretty clearly visible.

Alan T · 09-03-2008, 05:28 PM

I thought they had Blue baseball diamonds there!

Bummer. Guess we could have gone for it. Oh well. I would like to thank you for being the good host and not just telling us that we made a mistake but showing us with very large pictures that we made a mistake.

MJ4H · 09-03-2008, 06:02 PM

bwahahaha

Also, Mission #5 will be wrapping up soon. All clue answers have been given to the codebreaker, Passacaglia. Mission #6 is 2 bombing runs from being complete. That means we have a quiz and execution coming soon. Start studying boys and, ahem, boys.

It's also that time where I tell you about my dreaming up a new mission. Best one yet, I dare say.

samifan24 · 09-03-2008, 09:28 PM

Sorry for misleading you, I thought it didn't look like a ballpark from that distance.

MJ4H · 09-04-2008, 12:21 PM

Mission #5 is complete, but I can't upload the results video until I get home since youtube is blocked from my office. As soon as I get home today, I will post it.

MJ4H · 09-04-2008, 12:29 PM

Passacaglia and kingnebwsu can do their bombing runs any time, also.

It looks like we may have a park off to the far right of that image. See all the green? I'm guessing you could either head on over that way or just zoom out one more time. Either way, we should know pretty quickly if there's a ballpark just out of view.

gstelmack · 09-04-2008, 03:31 PM

All of these pictures make me want to break out my Squad Leader set...

Thomkal · 09-04-2008, 03:39 PM

I would agree with Sami that the park like area to the right would be a good place to check out.

path12 · 09-04-2008, 04:38 PM

Good call, let's get a better overall look.

MJ4H · 09-04-2008, 05:17 PM

Due to an error on my part, I am adding 2 movement points for Passacaglia.

MJ4H · 09-04-2008, 05:18 PM

I will upload the result of Pass's latest move after I finish up Mission #5.

MJ4H · 09-04-2008, 05:32 PM

Below is the results video for Mission #5. To maintain suspense, please discuss the results only in spoiler tags for tonight.

So Mr. Host, how much would it cost to buy a cluster bomb? Looks like a nice 4-in-1 opportunity there.

just a heads up that I might not be around much over the weekend. Tropical Storm Hanna is currently looking like its going to right over/just by us here in Myrtle Beach so may have power outages.

Passacaglia · 09-05-2008, 12:16 PM

MJ4H Coordinator Join Date: Jan 2002 Location: Hog Country	Mission #5 Secrets Revealed! Spoiler Here are all of the clues along with the correct answer, who was assigned each clue, and the answer each person submitted for the clue. Clue #1 (18) BrianD (17), path12 (18) The number of times the letter "e" appears in samifan24's 10th post in the mole thread (signatures, quotes, and other items are not counted), upper and lower case count, minus the number of times "v" appears in the same post. Clue #2 (70) BrianD (70) The number of times a capital "G" appears in Passacaglia's 24th post (quote block counts, but signatures and other message board features do not) in the mole thread. Clue #3 (3) kingnebwsu (0), samifan24 (3) The number of dollar signs plus the number of slashes that appear in MJ4H's 62nd post in the mole thread. Clue #4 (33-14=19) Thomkal (28), path12 (21) The number of times Passacaglia posted between post 100 and 199 (inclusive) minus the number of moves kingnebwsu made in the minefield BEFORE he picked up a treasure (the entry number counts as a move). Clue #5 (36+51=87) kingnebwsu (87) The number of letters in the filename of the full minefield map (the letters before the ".jpg") plus the sum of all the digits in the largest of the numbers in the fibonacci sequence code for human minesweeper. Clue #6 (12+16+17+13=58-18=40) Passacaglia (40) The total number of letters in the names of all of the missions (4 to date), not counting spaces minus the total number of letters in the chains sent to BrianD and Barkeep49 (2 chains each). Answer = 18703198740 Note: this answer was pretty clearly given in the preview video. The block of numbers was the same every time except the last time. The last time, the first 11 numbers were 18703198740. Notice that the money appeared immediately afterwards in the video, demonstrating that these numbers would open the lock.
