That might be useful. Maybe not. I'm looking at the footage I got of Patterson's PDA. He shot some pics of a desk, apparently the German's, although I don't recognize all the info. See if you can piece together anything useable before the Company does. I posted the surveillance of Patterson's PDA on the German's Assignment Tracker for now.

July 02, 2008	Either our European friend dies or a passenger plane goes down. Help me out. Check ur email or 9th Wonders at boards.9thwonders.com/index.php?showforum=101	Subject: The German's flight plans I've got plans for our metal-bending German friend, but we've hit a major snag. Dekker even called Thompson back at the Company to report it (http://boards.9thwonders.com/index.php?showtopic=63845&st=75). The extraction team has drugged him so he doesn't throw any bullets or planes around, but he's still fighting it: he's started emanating an unconscious electromagnetic field that's interfering with electronics for a quarter-mile around. The team has partially shielded their plane so it can fly, but when they take off, every other plane in the vicinity might drop like a rock. Cargo planes we can risk, but a commercial passenger jet crash would bring too much attention. We need to get that team off the ground before the Company decides to the plug on the walking magnet; not only would that be a waste of the trouble it took to get him, but I have some very important plans for pet German. So here's the deal. According to the flight schedule, there are five planes taking off around the same time as the German. If we can prove that no passenger planes are within at least two runways of us, they've got a green light to launch. Unfortunately, I don't know what runways those planes using. I've got air traffic control communications, cargo records, and maintenance logs, and here's what they do tell me. The five planes are each carrying one of the following cargoes: heavy machinery, seafood, electronics, mail, and passengers. The five planes seem to be an Airbus A320, an MD-80, a 737, a DC-9, and an A300. The flight numbers are 227, 639, 91, 128, and 555. The team reports that there are five runways, numbered 1 to 5 from north to south. The Company plane will be on a charter strip south of Runway 5. Get me proof that there are two runways between the German and the nearest passenger plane. According to air traffic control, Flight 227 and Flight 639 have to have two runways in between them in order to have room to turn to their proper headings. The flight schedule also says that Flight 91 is taking off from a runway somewhere south of Flight 128's, in order to avoid blocking Flight 128 in its terminal while taxiing. The maintenance log has an entry that indicates that the A320 and A300 parts were switched and delivered to the wrong service areas and had to be--heavily underlined--"hand-carried" across the two intervening runway areas. The log refers to the A300 being "north," which would make it on a lower-numbered runway. An air traffic controller memo mentions Flight 555 being moved to Runway 3. One of the maintenance crews that carried the A300 parts to their correct location noted being able to smell the "fresh" seafood being loaded on a cargo plane even from three runways away (so, two intervening runways). Flight 227 complained to air traffic control about planes regularly being loaded with heavy machinery on the tarmac two runways away. The cargo records mention the electronics and the mail being delivered to planes separated by two runways. The records referred to the mail being sent to the "south tarmac," which would make it a higher-numbered runway. The MD-80 was serviced on the runway right next to the A320. Flight 227 has dedicated use of the high-tech loading facilities on Runway 4. The Company team has observed that the long Runway 3 seems to be dedicated to Boeing 737s.	9thwonders.com

See for yourselves at: http://www.nbc.com/Heroes/novels/index.shtml?novel=95. They are not on my side, however, it's likely that they'll wipe out some of the agents that are still in my way.

August 5, 2008	Know anything about evolved humans? www.primatechpaper.com/AT_2.0/at_map_file.php	Subject: Assignment Tracker Map It's time to take this up a notch. I'm going to start getting you guys some direct access into The Company systems. For starters, this is their "tips map" where they track leads about possible posthuman activity. Check it out at http://www.primatechpaper.com/AT_2.0/at_map_file.php. I confess I'm showing off a bit by giving you this. The Company has quietly started tracking even its own agents. Talk about losing trust? We're making cracks! Anyway, here's the plan. The Trojan I've planted on their system is two-way, so if you've got any leads (real or fake) on posthumans that you want to add, go at it. We can start spreading their resources out until they snap. We're in the final stretch, I can feel it. When I was young, I dreamed about facing off against Goliaths like The Company, and stomping them into the dirt. I wake up at night and think about the stuff I can do to them. Lots of it would be suicide, but I play it in my head, over and over. I want these people to suffer. I want everything they try to turn on them and eat them whole. I want them to lose and lose big and know why and who. I want this to end in a smoking crater without a shred of these animals left. I won't stop. Never.	primatechpaper.com
August 8, 2008		Subject: The Company's first response Want to see something hilarious? I snagged this off an executive email server at the Company: "I promise that the disruption of the intel-tracker will be resolved soon. Network Engineering reports that the vandalism appears to be coming from multiple internal sources. Respectfully, I remind you of my earlier prediction that adding the 'posthuman' agents to the tracker would escalate suspicion between the two factions. I have to suggest that this attack is part of the ongoing tensions between our own human and powered agents. Gael."
August 11, 2008	Keep the tips coming. I love making the Company's higher-ups look like fools.	Subject: Change of Plans Just intercepted this: "Cruz: Your request for an additional week to trace the disruption is denied. The intel-tracker has become an embarrassment. Get it under control or terminate it." Good news, right? Then I noticed something: a fake tip I posted just got elevated to an investigation. That means a whole agent team, analysts, satellites, the works, is being wasted, looking for nothing. That Map: http://www.primatechpaper.com/AT_2.0/at_map_file.php is going to be our best friend! From here on out, every tip that goes on there needs to look like the real article. Stick to their template, keep it vague. Let's see how many agents we can hook.	primatechpaper.com
August 14, 2008	Close call today. They're getting desperate.	Subject: Stay the Course Friends, allies, they're getting close. Got to keep moving just a little bit faster. Unfortunately, having to lay a little low for a few days. This place is a kicked-over bees' nest. At least it gives time to think. Not always pleasant, but necessary. Living in the midst of your enemy ... sometimes you forget there's something else. Dulls you. That's when you go back to the source. Picture the faces. Work yourself back up. Crossed paths with S today. That's all it took. Back in the groove! It eats you, too. Can't be helped. We're almost there. P.S. Remember this email? "Getting cautious": I'm not so sure that 9th wonders is the safest place for me to be posting anymore. I'm searching for a new outlet.

Tension is so thick around here you could cut it up with a knife and take a piece home as a souvenir. You've done well by me, and it's time for me to show you more of the picture.

Puzzles

Identity Puzzle

On March 11, 2008, the unknown new person using Hana's contacts started sending puzzle clues in their posts. Some of the clues were riddles, and some were just characters from words capitalized or spelled wrongly. All of the clues either were or could be converted to letters, and a March 14th email noted that the letters put together would lead to the sender's identity.

The March 11th postings did not mention anything about the puzzle, but did have two words capitalized incorrectly in both the text and email. In the text message, those words were "Posted" and "submisSions". In the email, the words were "relationshiP" and "pSyche". Thus, two letters come from this post: P and S.

The March 12th text directed towards the profiles at yamagatofellowship.org, and the email contained two riddles about the sender's identity. Benjamin Franklin retired from printing at 42, so 41 is the answer to the first riddle. The second riddle was ambiguous. It is unclear as to whether the answer is 1 cause the legend of Kensei is known only for his love for Yaeko, whether it is 11 for Yaeko plus Adam's 10 wives, or whether it is 4 for the number of times "love" appears on the page.

The March 13th postings also did not mention the puzzle, but did have a word spelled wrong in both the text and email. In the instant message, the misspelled word was "exprets". In the email, the misspelled word was "intreviews". The letters R and E are reversed in each misspelled word. Thus, those letters are for the puzzle.

The March 14th text and email both referenced a hidden page on Hana's website. On the linked page, the letters R and V in the link to the archive of Hana's old posts were mis-capitalized (Note: The capitalization was corrected after the puzzle was solved). The email also claimed to contain the final riddle, which referred to what was "two letters within one word, three letters apart". In the phrase, "one word", the letter O is repeated twice, three letters apart. Thus, those letters are also for the puzzle. This email also noted that the puzzle could potentially be solved using just the letters from this week.

Later postings helped to clarify and narrow the possibilities: The March 19th email told puzzle solvers that the identity was hidden among the dream experts' doctor's names on the resources page of activatingevolution.org.

The March 20th text narrowed it down to just 8 letters, and clarified that the titles of the doctors should be included.

And on March 24th, the final clue came only by text message. It was a repeat of "How many times does Takezo Kensei "love"? The word "love" is in quotes in this email and is mentioned four times on Kensei's yamagatofellowship.org page. Thus, this clue clarifies that the answer to the second March 12th riddle is the fourth letter of the alphabet: D. The meaning of the first riddle is unknown.

Thus, there were now eight known letters: P, S, D, R, E, R, V, and O. Those letters can be combined and scrambled to form the word EVSDROPR, the username of a user at 9thwonders.com.

On March 26th, the mysterious sender confirmed his alias was Evsdropr, and pointed to the thread at 9thwonders.com where the puzzle's solution was first posted.

April 29 Puzzle

On April 29, 2008, evsdropr sent an email with a character string puzzle. To decipher this puzzle, several steps are required. First, it is required to first convert the string's symbols to the corresponding numbers on a standard QWERTY keyboard. Then, the numbers can be converted to letters by swapping each number with a corresponding letter of the alphabet. Finally, the letters have to be reversed.

The original string:          7-!$-9-*-19-@!-3
String converted to numbers:  7-14-9-8-19-21-3
String converted to letters:  G-N -I-H-S -U -C
String with reversed letters: C-U -S-H-I -N -G

Thus, the character string spells CUSHING, a character that appeared in the next graphic novel, Trust Issues, Part 1.

May 28 Puzzle

On May 28, 2008, evsdropr sent an email with a puzzle. To solve the puzzle, it is required to split the code given into odd and event parts.

The original code: siafb ainny ethha izneg lhsaa pbpie nnesh taozm eelcs haebc iknje uhlai zeenl
The odd letters:   s a b  i n  e h a  z e  l s a  b i  n e h  a z  e l s  a b  i n e  h a  z e l
The even letters:   i f  a n y  t h  i n g  h a  p p e n  s  t o m  e c  h e c  k j  u l i  e n

Thus, the odd letters repeat the sender's name, Sabine Hazel. The solution is found in the even letters: If anything happens to me, check Julien.

Upon sending the solution to evsdropr via private message on the 9thwonders.com website, evsdropr replies:

Nice work, we're on the right track...Julien's in the Company. It appears as though Sabine is suspicious of him.

June 27 Puzzle

On June 27, 2008, evsdropr left a 9thwonders.com post with an unknown password to Devin Patterson's PDA. According to evsdropr, entering the wrong password reveals the password hint question: "B KA****" The password hint question refers to his partner's name, Bianca Karina, and thus the password should be RINA. Entering the password into Devin's PDA from the assignment tracker case-file allows access to a photo album of photos Devin took while in Berlin.

July 2 Puzzle

On July 2, 2008, evsdropr send an email message with the subject "The German's flight plans". The email gave various details on the Berlin airport the Company was planning to use to fly the German back to a Level 5 cell in the United States. For the departure time, users needed to determine which of 5 runways a passenger plane would be on, as if it was within 2 runways of the Company's plane, it would be effected and the Company might just terminate the German instead of moving him. evsdropr did not want that to happen. Later that day, evsdropr confirmed a solution posted in a 9th Wonders.com thread entitled "7/2 Email from Evs" with a posting to the same thread:

Nice work, the passenger plane was indeed Flight 555 on Runway 3, and the Company gave the go-ahead with a minute to spare. Two planes went off their runways and half the airfield browned-out, but satellite shows the team got off the ground and is winging toward Level 5 as we speak.

Well done.

July 10 Puzzle

On July 10, 2008, evsdropr sent a scan of a Company message cut into pieces. When the pieces are put together, the following message can be read:

In order for Kill Squad to work, I need a charismatic leader, someone who believes in Kill Squad with a religious fervor. Kill Squad needs to be their god, their reason to go on living. Someone who views the world as two groups: part of Kill Squad, not part of Kill Squad. Unfortunately, the Company also sees the world in two groups: the ones who comply, and the ones who don't. In order for someone who is in the Company to be willing to lead Kill Squad, they will have to be in transition: that means a recent crisis, reopening deep psychological wounds. That's my Kill Squad captain.

July 16 Puzzle

On July 16, 2008, evsdropr sent a code to be used to determine the password for Lewis's assignment tracker entry. droxnar711 posted the solution at 9thwonders.com. The code is a shift cypher using the Mod95 alphabet (upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and punctuation). The first part of the code corresponds to Lewis's full name, thus:

BrendanLewis
qC6?52?{6H:D

From that, you can determine that the shift is -48 in the Mod 95 alphabet (going back 48 characters), and then use the rest to determine the password:
q{;E5`h7
BLjtd19f

July 29 Puzzle

On July 29, 2008, evsdropr reprinted a coded message about the Company's latest capture:

The message can be unscrambled using Kender's Vigenere and "gina" as the key:

On April 18, 2008 evsdropr posted the phone call conducted between Donna Dunlap and evsdropr:

Donna: Hello?
Evsdroper: Listen carefully. This is not a joke.
Donna: Jeff, is that you? I don't have time for games right now.
Evsdropr: My name is evs.
Donna: Who?
Evsdropr: Evsdropr. This is not game. This is a set up. The man across from you is a killer.
Donna: What?!
Evsdropr: You're going to tell him there's a family emergency. Then, you are going to leave.
Donna: Okay, I'll be right over, give everybody my best.
Evsdropr: Wait, one more thing.

Evsdropr: Look under the table. I've taped a gun under your table. Take it. Hopefully you won't need it.
Donna: Alright, I'm leaving right now. I'll be there as soon as possible.

Dumont's Assignment Tracker

On June 16, 2008, evsdropr posted to the "Chapter 89: Root and Branch 2 (weeding out)" thread on 9thwonders.com:

I've been quiet lately, but it's because I've been keeping a close eye on things.

Seems Agent Sabine's really in the thick of it now. Have you read Dumont's Assignment Tracker yet? http://www.primatechpaper.com/AT_2.0/assignmentTracker.php

No surprises there...the root's always the hardest to find.

She's been barking up the wrong tree.

Thompson's voicemails

On June 17, 2008, evsdropr posted this thread on 9thwonders.com:

Seems Thompson Jr. has some big shoes to fill, first his father, now Bennet. He's been receiving Bennet's forwarded voicemails. I'm mentioned a few times, but no one has a clue about my true identity, still, which is good. I'll post a few.

-Evs.

Attachments:
Voicemail #1: Evs is after you.

Voicemail #2: I know you killed Cushing.

NOTE: shorty, a user at 9thwonders.com, claims to have left voicemail #2.

On June 20, 2008, evsdropr posted another message on the same thread:

A few mentions of Primatech in here. Maybe I'm not the only one keeping an eye on Company operations.

Attachments:
Voicemail #3: Hello Thompson, this is Tarot. I know what you're Company really is. You cannot keep this secret hidden forever. I have see much already and I will be watching.

Voicemail #4: I've got it figured out. I know what you did. I finally put all the pieces together. Primatech hasn't got anything to do with paper, does it? Well, just remember: We'll be watching you very carefully from now on.

NOTE: Tarot, a user at 9thwonders.com, claims to have left voicemail #3.

Later the same day, evsdropr again posted another message on the same thread:

Thompson Jr. seems to have a few more enemies than he does friends.

What's your guys take on him?

Voicemail #5: Thompson, apparently I'm not the only one who's seen what you and the Company have tried to hide. The trouble with secrets is someone always finds out. Hope you're prepared to deal with the truth getting out. You can't hide forever.

NOTE: Tarot also claims to have left voicemail #5.

On June 25, 2008, evsdropr posted a message to the same thread only containing another two voicemails attachments:

Voicemail #6: Hello Thompson. Lets just say we know what you're doing at the Company, and we don't like it...And we're going to stop you no matter what it takes, and so you should watch your back if you know what's best for you.

Voicemail #7: Evs, I know you're watching this. I know who you are and I will find you. Watch out for the dreams.

NOTE: MikeMc and PaganDreams, users at 9thwonders.com, claim to have left voicemails #6 and #7, respectively.

On July 1, 2008, evsdropr posted a message to the same thread only containing another voicemail attachment:

Voicemail #8: Thompson. This is Dekker in Berlin. Hey, my guy over at the power company just called. He says something's started. Something is sending low-grade electromagnetic pulses into his grid. Get this: the surges come about 80 a minute. The waves are shaped like heartbeats. I was going to send my field unit to check it out but it turns out one of your tag and bag teams is already in the area. Could this be your guy? We can't make contact with your team. The EMP is degrading everything for 9 city blocks. If you have got any alternative means for getting in touch with them, let me know, stat. I'm already picking up chatter on the police band about it.

On July 3, 2008, evsdropr posted a message to the same thread only containing another voicemail attachment:

Voicemail #9: Hello, this is Jong Mao Chen of the Red Tyger Division of the Defense Department. I believe you are familiar with the truce that the two organizations [scrambled]. I'm willing to renegotiate any terms of our truce. If you would like to give me a call back I will be available at 218-5862. You may contact me in Peking, Hajin Province, Delong, in Lemuria. Thank you.

NOTE: xcfirefox of 9thwonders.comclaimed responsibility for this message, that he didn't plan for Evs to publish the message, and that he could no longer be contacted at the given number. Firefox also gave a brief summary of ongoing discord between the Red Tyger Division and the Company that began from the division's inception.

Later on July 7, 2008, evsdropr posted another voicemail-only message to the same thread:

Voicemail #11: Our European friend got away. There's no need for pestering. He won't bother anyone else. You need to check out this 9th Wonders thing. I think they're on to us. The mole may be getting deeper. I'll check in later.

On July 14, 2008, evsdropr posts another voicemail-only message to the same thread:

Voicemail #12: Yes, Mr. Thompson. We have found a new ability in a person in Southeast Texas, along the coast. His ability is to morph into any solid object.

The German

On June 19, 2008, 2:58AM EDT, evsdropr posted a new thread on 9thwonders.com about the German:

Been searching all day for info in the Company's database on "The German." Came up with a few photos. Check them out below.

About 8 hours later, 11:13AM EDT, evsdropr posted to the same thread:

Here's another...

On June 28, 2008, evsdropr posted another message to this thread:

Patterson is snoopier (or more bored) than I expected. He used his PDA's camera to take some unauthorized pix of the location where the bag & tag is going to happen. I need to know what he knows.

His PDA password is four characters. If you enter the wrong password enough, you get the password hint question: "B KA****" Figure out what goes where those stars are; I'm guessing that's the PDA password.

This German is a big deal. Devin can't be getting underfoot. Let's get into that PDA.
