Mandatory Puzzle

Plot Setup

With the players' help, Prof. Chronus has repaired and re-calibrated the time machine, and thus can lock in on Doctor When--both to view him through the View-O-Scope and to send him somewhere else by projecting a "return time wormhole portal archway."

Props

Short silent movie of Doctor When pantomiming his desired new destination. But the movie is chopped up into 15 pieces that the players need to put back into the right order. Need Javascript application--Sean working on it.

Plot Point to Convey

  • The View-O-Scope can be focused into sort of a "live feed."
  • The "portable tachyon detector" lets the traveler know when the View-O-Scope is focused on him/her.
  • The Doctor doesn't want to be returned to 2012 quite yet...he wants to go to his high school science fair first.
  • The Doctor is in some danger from the Big Bang.
  • The Big Bang also causes signal interference.

Short Description

Garbled silent video message from Doctor When instructing where to send him.

Detailed Description

How To Give To Teams

Lab Assistant at site tells team (script, p. 15),

Welcome! From this location you can tune in to live feed from the Temporal View-O-Scope. Just use the program that the Long Now mechanics gave you and enter access code XXXX. Call the Institute on speakerphone when you're done.

After they see the video, the Lab Assistant tells them (script, p. 15),

I saw the remote feed, too. We have to help Doctor When fix the timeline! You need to decode his final message. Then call Prof. Chronos on your speakerphone.

Puzzle Answer

The time, date, and possibly location of an hour or two before the "Science Fair Incident". (Any time/date format is probably okay.) 1986 1:00pm ... have we picked an exact day yet?

  • Filming on 1/8/12.
  • Christian to get footage to Sean.
  • Sean to create Javascript & to edit appropriately.
  • Sean to get bundle to Dan for inclusion in disk.

Other Notes

Prof. Chronos notes the time/date and says something like "That's odd, that's when we were both in high school. Wonder what he's up to. Oh well!" ... and pushes the button to send Doctor When there.
