ObieGame '06: Ashes, Ashes
Materials:
- Maximilian Unlimited, a private equity venture established by several Charter Club members to help spread their work.
- Images (1, 2) found in a hacked email account belonging to one of the villains. Three of the four teams who made it to the final chase identified the mole off of the tattoo.
- Excerpt of recording from conference (2MB)
The Notebook
Originally conceived as pages torn from an actual notebook, which would prove to be too difficult for the planners to duplicate, this stack of materials was provided to each team as files on a 3.5" floppy at the start of the game. Some pieces were relevant immediately, some didn't become useful until days later.
The emails should be enough to tell you who to see first.

- /research/
- 1229114.jpg, slide4.jpg, and abstract.rtf, all created by actual Berkeley chemists to add an unnecessary level of reality to the proceedings. According to the PhDs who whipped these up for us, the science 'could work'.
- poesy.txt
- r_26-1-25oe.jpg
- two junk files (1, 2), supposed to look like corrupted data on a damaged disk At least two teams sicced the comp-sci majors amongst them on this junk code, certain there was a clue somewhere inside.
