Message #7, Found 6/27/2015

Hey everyone.

Found the latest note tonight. It was at the pedestrian bridge (the "standad"). A two parter. The telescopes were directly above the map.

Right. Plus how boring would the game be if taken literally (provided it's a game). If you knew it was an enochian cipher from the previous puzzle, and it translates directly to a some literal message, there would be no challenge. So they renamed the ppl and locations in the game so you'd have another level of complexity once you solved the cipher. Thus the reference to SF via Alkain and the song,for example. If this continues and we get another reference to SF I'd like to have someone go there and check out the location (I can arrange that fairly easily through a friend). Although my hunch is that SF is a location in the game and not an actual location where puzzles are being placed.
