HOLY S***!!

Mystery Spot, CA is the new starting point. This is pretty crazy that they would change this. I just verified that it DID change.

Hehe it seems that nobody is coming with the correct answer, and I was right sticking to that place as the starting

point, but I've to give credit to some other folks that mentioned it before.

Does the forum accept upload of other types rather than images ? I've no problem to post a copy of the spreadsheet

I'm using.

Does your post mean that you've found the "correct answer"?

Well, I thought back to my physics days and came up with superposition.

if you go, 5000 to the right and 4000 to lef the left, you really only went 1000 to the right. You don't have to do all the different direction, jsut find the master direction.

Considering right and up as positive, add rights with lefts, and down with ups. You get 1582.89 right and 304.48 down.

Starting anywhere in Ca you bascially get somewhere just west of the Mississippi.

I search around looking for a city with an I starting it and found Itasca Texas.

I'm going with Itasca.

But, feel free to use my idea of superpostion to find your own city. If only we had the mystetious spot.

If you assume Mystery Spot CA is M.S. ca, that's in San Fransico. Then, it's 1582.89 right and 304.48 down is almost exactly Iredell Texas.

Lorelei, Odessa, Kara, Iredell

Or Irving.

umm...or INGRAM...thats what i used

If the mystery spot is in california then we should try to start from LAX airport, because you can arrange the letters in TANIL to LA INT. as in LA INTERNATIONAL airport. Or even Playa Vista which is next to the airport.

No I don't think so, I'm still working with the numbers. Trying to do this on an online map is too tedious

and probably will provide and incorrect answer.

Remember pi ? now is when we need to use it :-)

Cheers

PS. Plz don't follow exactly the numbers I posted before, I'm still working with the formulas and probably some

of them may be wrong. I'll post all the numbers as soon as I'm done with it and the numbers make sense,

and don't think I'm not willing to share, as I said before I don't give a squat about having my name under

a heathsink, but in case I'll ask to have some name representative of the forums since I can't take credit

myself for the excellent work that many folks here have been doing for more than a month now !!

I got a little bit lost. So are you trying to find her TRUE identity? why "fourth name"...i dont get it. Whats the friggin task this time? The location? finding what? whats the MAIN thing we need to find? I'll get right crackin' :) lol

My guess is that the last riddle will provide an answer that combined somehow with TANLI or LATIN or

whatever combination is right will give you the final clue to put together the final answer.

I'm still having a hard time accepting that each word has to start with L, O, K and I, but makes

sense, unless the answer is actually the name of "something" that has four words, just giving

the personal names sounds too trivial but I may be wrong.

Cheers

Yes, it's in Santa Cruz.

That's the correct starting point.

NEW CHANGE TO ROAMINGROAMING SITE:

"Remember, even the smallest places have names"

Follow the directions and write down the names.

They see we're having trouble and giving us hints - guess they overestimated how difficult it is to map coordinates by mileage!

Wow... wish somebody'd thought of that earlier... ;)

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
