Almost certainly unrelated but interesting nevertheless.

Hi everyone! I'm Dioni, I've just joined Team Spearman and wanted to say hello.

I'm a bit late - recieved my first email on monday and decided on Spearman an hour ago. I've been coming on this forum to catch up and I'm now hoping to join in with everyone...

Looking forward to doing what needs to be done. Smile

PS - I had a look at a couple of your videos, they're great! Very Happy

Is everyone making one?

Hi DioniC - right, get the video done then! Wink

[quote]OK let's think about this logically; In the first round, Spearman's riddle related to location, therefore the titles of his image attachments were an anagram of compass. What could the title of the image he has hidden be an anagram of? What is the overriding theme of this round's challenge?

just thinking out loud: if we are searching the web, and if we are looking for Andy, then would a compass not be handy?? has anyone tried this? I might get onto that.

Only those who chose Lox were asked to.

How about some of the twitter-centric image hosts, e.g:

yfrog
twitpic

**codifier** Thu Oct 29, 2009 10:23 pm

Umm, bingo?

Phew, I'm exhausted. I must have spent a whole 20 minutes looking for this.
Very Happy

Just twenty minutes? Seriously? Anyway, well done! I hope that we can progress with round two over this weekend.

davemoses Fri Oct 30, 2009 12:36 am

excellently done.

the writing is a little difficult to make out.

neumann
newmaun
newmann?

and some sort of equation with some cypher-ic writing.

hmmmm.

davemoses Fri Oct 30, 2009 12:42 am

AHA!

And look!

Near to the location I suggested last week!!!
"Newnham"

I dunno... maybe it's a stretch...
Although Spearman did email me that I "was very close" when I asked him about the location.

**HannahHannah81** Fri Oct 30, 2009 12:45 am

Oh Codifier, that's fantastic - well done!! See the little Derren picture in the bottom left too Smile

I started a new thread for discussion as this one is getting looooooong Smile

KirstyJ Fri Oct 30, 2009 12:59 am

That's great! So what do we do now it's been found?

SemiColon Fri Oct 30, 2009 1:05 am

I've posted it to facebook... I reckon if we just all put it on our facebooks, twitter accounts, blogs, etc. it'll be all good! (careful not to spam anyone, guys, lest we feel the wrath of Phillis!)

naughtyhorty Fri Oct 30, 2009 1:45 am

That's a great find...well done....so if we upload it to fb and Twitter...what should we call the image?

And what does the writing mean...and then there was also the box image...does that mean its something to do with the religion map inside the main map?

helen1984 Fri Oct 30, 2009 2:02 am

yeah but thats a big box look at they guy next to it.

helen1984 Fri Oct 30, 2009 2:05 am

has anyope worked out what the hand written bit says yet? on the map.

Nick Fri Oct 30, 2009 2:28 am

Would it also be of value to use https://www.blogger.com to post our pics as this is where the help find Andy stuff started?

helen1984 Fri Oct 30, 2009 2:30 am

possibly irrelevant but....

the almoravids were in spain from 1086 to 1150 (ish)

kait321 Fri Oct 30, 2009 3:59 am

Wow! Well done codifier!! cheers

Signed up Oct 10th. No photos yet (at least no public ones). Hard to tell if it is or isn't relevant.

Looks hopeful... I thought there might be something visible on the 'find' though...

SOZ, HADN'T CAUGHT UP WITH THE REST OF THE PAGES WHEN I'D POSTED THIS

JayKay Fri Oct 30, 2009 4:06 am

I'm just catching up. Shit, I saw that map a couple of days ago on something... I'm so sorry! I'm sure it wasn't on flickr though - maybe it's just an image they've used. Fach me, I hope I didn't overlook it. Gotta go back an read the last few pages - fandabby Codifier!

Jax

Nah, I couldn't have. Phew!
