Maddison Atkins

Maddison received a postcard in the mail today.

FRONT:


BACK:


The numbers on the back read:

46531968712732840256731
8431543073224041261216260
84317263146316233187126840
691928370762538156460
3483193761738360

The postcard was definitely sent from Omaha, and the date appears to say JUN 17 2009 PM (questionable).

Note that the stamp is turned sideways.

The postcard is of Omaha's Old Market: http://www.oldmarket.com/

This youtube user ChildrenOfTheCornBHS has posted a few videos at the playground/picnic area of Standing Bear Lake. In the following video you can see a lot of details about the park that could be useful for locating a drop:

The giant open dumpster at 0:15 in the video sets off a flag for me. "Close the lid" could mean to close that dumpster's lid which is normally open.

when i googled standing bear plus 507 i got another part of the book where we found the other quote. it talks about a trail.

I am a man seems to indicate a men's restroom, if we are indeed talking about bathrooms.

If the word is "join" instead of "john" that could indicate Union (join, union... they're similar).

Anyway, this is awesome and I think we're on the right track. We just need to put all feelers out for someone who lives in the area.

I think the running theory in IRC now is that there could be a drop at Standing Bear Lake. Correct me if I'm wrong, but here seems to be the summed up theory:
hold your breath - its gonna smell
close the lid - something on the outside of a garbage can?
reach - reach for it
i am a man
the same god made us both - quote about Standing Bear
my water ... my waves ... ?
pocket john ... rocket logo ... ?
five zero seven - my water pocket join 507 - standing bear lake at Union 507

Sooo... anyone know anyone in Omaha?

We have one user named "Jess" here on maddisonatkins.com who is on the Community Map as located in Omaha. I posted a message on his wall and sent a friend request with a link to this discussion thread. Does anyone know Jess and have a better way to contact him, or ... Any other ideas for people to go for the drop?

Q, i think the jess on the map is part of jeromys team. i dont think he is a player.

I was under the impression that Jess moving to Omaha meant that he was no longer contributing to MA. IMO, it doesn't hurt to ask him. He can ignore us if he wants. However, he's currently our only local option in the community. But... we need to come up with a back-up plan.

Well, if Jess hid the drop, then there's a good chance he can find it again! ;)

Jess's player pin has been removed. Is there a plan B?

Submitting the information to @arg_deaddrop to see if any of the people following that account are in the area (doing that). Also, seeing about bringing somebody in from the unfiction community.

i was just thinking about this. what if the lid doesnt mean an actual lid, but just the top of something. like when people call your head your lid.

also if it is the top of something then the reach would make more sense. usually when something is up high you have to reach for it.

i sent a message to adam explaining all of our work. you can find it in the official connections thread, its a pretty good summation of everything we figured out so far. i tried to make it easily understandable so if you are confused you may want to go check it out.
