Lost – Find 815 Back for Round 2?

find815.jpgFind815.com has been updated with a journal page from Sam Thomas reading (click to enlarge):

“Not sleeping again.
Something’s still not right.

The reporters have stopped calling.  Everyone is moving on. Flight 815 is a closed book for them. They think they have all the answers they need.

But I don’t…
S.T.”

Could this be a second go around for Find 815?  Where Sam finds out where the plane actually crashed, and he finally gets the answers he deserves.  Or is it getting relaunched to give fans a second chance to play through the ARG?

Find 815 – Chapter 5 Recap

recap5Wow what an intense week of Find 815, Sam did not find the Black Rock, but in fact found Flight 815!  Here is the final Find 815 recap…

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter 5: Video Recap (Coming Soon)

Watch the final chapter of Find 815 in one big chunk, includes failure videos.  For the full Find 815 video click here.

Part One: Sam Finds the ‘Black Rock’

Navigating the Reef
The Chapter starts off with Sam telling Ockham that he can triple his money, just if they use his coordinates to find the Black Rock.  Ockham punches in the coordinates, and tells Sam to steer the ship while he distracts Mr. Talbot.  Unfortunately for Sam, reefs have just been detected and he has to avoid them.  When the picture of the reef radar is viewed in its entirety, it looks like Sonya.

The Wind Plays Tricks on You
Sam hears Sonya calling him, Ockham explains that it is only the wind.  “The wind plays tricks on you when you are this far out here,” then the last clue hunt begins…

Braving the Storm 
After you find the first 3 season clues, your are sent to take control of the Christiane I during a storm.  Avoid electrically charged clouds and tidal waves to keep from being taken down.  If you successfully get through the storm without wrecking the ship, you get the clue word: Southfields
Sam’s Diary: The Man in the Glitch II
Sam is very excited in his last video diary, he exclaims “We found it!”  But he isn’t the star this time, the glitches pop up more prominently than any other time.  Who is this Man in the Glitch?  Mr. Talbot makes his return in Sam’s video glitches, and it seems he is giving a report in finding Flight 815… (Image Credit: José)

The Search for the Black Rock
Sam’s final task aboard the Christiane I is to pilot the drones inside the Sunda Trench, and look for the Black Rock.  Your job is to hit all the waypoints in 3 minutes.  The best way to achieve it is to do the bottom to rows of waypoints at once, and the top two rows in a zig-zag pattern.
 
That’s not the Black Rock…
Sam finds nothing from the search grid and Ockham really starts to lose it.  But then, what’s this?  A plane?  It isn’t the Black Rock after all, but Oceanic Air Flight 815.

Part Two: Sam isn’t alone…

Tracey gives Sam a call. She says she knows his anniversary is coming up, and wants to reassure him that he isn’t alone.  She is there if he needs here.

Part Three: Emails

Sent  
email-week5-sent1 Sam has gotten an offer for a job, but declines it based on his current circumstances.
email-week5-sent2 Sam responds to Tracey’s Voice Mail, but he says he doesn’t have the time to talk.  He says something bad is going on…
   
Received  
email-week5-rec1 Sam has been offered the job that he requested way back in the earlier chapters.
email-week5-rec2 The last cryptic email of the game, it reads 411151057.  This translates to “All is Lost” from ‘Leet’ (or 1337) speak. (411 15 1057 = ALL IS LOST)

Part Four: Websites

Ocean Forecasts  
oceanforecasts This website predicts the rough weather in the Braving the Storm game.  Something else to note, when the image is darkened a graph is revealed.
   
Updated Maxwell Group Site  
maxwellgroup The Maxwell Group website (the-maxwell-group.com) has been updated.  Its spiffed up, and has an interview of Mr. Talbot on finding the Flight 815 crash. The ship in the logo is directly from the Chapter 3 Clue Hunt.

Part Five: The Aftermath

The End of Find 815… or is it?
The end of Find 815 was very unsettling, even though it was exactly as the title said, Flight 815 was found.  It ended in tragically for our hero, but could there be more?  The Maxwell Group website was updated even though we have yet to get a password.
 
How Find 815 ties into LOST
That is the big question, how exactly does Find 815 tie into lost?  As a treat for reading my recaps, here is your answer:

WARNING SPOILERS FOLLOW!!! (Spoiler Font for your protection):

The next episode of Lost (4.02: Confirmed Dead), starts with the drones from the Christiane I searching the Sunda Trench.  Brace yourselves, these drones do not belong to Sam and Mr. Talbot, but some other treasure seekers.  They aren’t having any luck, and are feeling a little bit of despair.  They get some strange readings, one asks, “Could it be Doubloons?”  Instead of treasure, they see the a wing of a plane with a familiar logo, “Oh my God, It’s Oceanic Flight 815!”

Speaker Has Something to Say… AND YOU BETTER LISTEN

Our good friend Speaker is hearing from his mysterious sources again. Could this be the purple sun pulsing it’s neural morse code into the silhouetted ones cranium?  That is a mystery that may be larger than any on Lost island itself, but here me… the info is important:

“I got this strange e-mail telling me there might be an
announcement from Oceanic after LOST during the premiere of Eli Stone. 
I don’t know what the announcement’s about… it could be ANYTHING! 
Feel free to speculate and tell me, because I love that stuff!

Apparently there’s going to be some never before seen LOST clips on Jimmy Kimmel Wednesday night!”

LOST – Find 815 – Chapter 4 Part 1 Chart Plotter Hack

plotter-game.jpgThe end is approaching quickly, and the closer we get the harder the games seem to be.  Tonight’s was probably the hardest yet.  For those of you who haven’t attempted yet the rules are like this:

Sam has hacked out 8 characters of the password.  Only 5 actually belong and the order is unknown.  We have 10 attempts to get it right. Oh, and everytime you fail the 8 characters change.  There may be easier ways to win and I definitely hope you’ll submit your strategy.  Here is mine.

I started out with the strategy that I was going to lose, alot, but hope for the best.  So what I did was enter only one letter at a time in each row.  Odds are in your favor that you’ll have eliminated the negatives within five tries.  You know they are a negative if all of the dots are black.  One red dot and they are part of the password.

In your remaining attempts its all about the order.  Lay out a random order them turn the letters in twos.  The order of the dots do not mean anything.  If you are luck, again prepare to lose many times, you will move a character into place, then use another group to try to determine which of the two is in place.  When you move the one that is in place, you’ll lose a dot.  When you move the others, if you are luck you will gain more.  The more you have, the fewer moves it takes to figure it out.  It took me about seven attempts to solve.
