Seems there’s been a bit of a slipup with the project me and Batfan73 have been working on. BatFan’s in jail and I need everyone’s help. He left me a voicemail, it was kinda garbled, but he said he was picked up by the cops for trespassing, so he needs some help getting everything activated. He’s not sure when he’s going to be able to extract himself from his situation.
He said he needs someone to get some sort of key off of an invoice, number 38272899 (geez, I hope I copied that down right), but he got cut off before he could tell me what this invoice is or even where to find it. We need this key to activate everything.
Can anyone figure this out? We’re going to need to fix this or the whole thing’s ruined! Anyone?
In an email to Glenn Barhyte, Jim Gordon made reference to Maroni Imports, leading us to a new viral site, www.maroniimports.com
With the invoice number from the forums post and the sruname “Craston”, which appeared in a small news update to the Gotham City Rail website:
ALERT: The STCS will undergo initial fine-tuning of its software on the evening of July 8th. This routine maintenance may result in temporary intermittent system delays. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. — C. Craston, Sr. Elec. Engineer, GCR
With this information the aforementioned invoice can be downloaded, at the bottom of it there is a key for a signal booster, Key: 5D45C08AA6C3638D7829C0D5183FDB14B0CDBF1DCB12. With this key, the signal booster was activated and CFB was updated to show two sets of co-ordinates in New York and Chicago. Hence the two locations for the big event this July 8th are now known:
New York and Chicago
CFB has since been updated to include a new mission statement:
Sometimes, you have to take a stand. You have to fight for respect. You have to let the entire world know you’re here.
On July 8th, nobody will be able to ignore us. Gather at the above coordinates at the appointed time, and help us take a stand in support of Batman!
If you can’t join us on the ground, we’ll be providing a way for you to watch what goes down, live on this website.
Defend Gotham! Defend Batman!
Key: 5D45C08AA6C3638D7829C0D5183FDB14B0CDBF1DCB12
Signal Booster status: ON
Thanks Pierre!

Rumor has it CFB will have a live stream of the event.
I’m just spitballing here, but I think I might know what’s up. All the dates/places have been covered on the Batmobile/Batpod Tour except the last two locations of the list posted by Film School Rejects. Those two locations are in Chicago and New York, the coordinates on the image above.
We might get a live Bat(vehicle) appearance at these two locations. Especially, if it’ll be broadcasting LIVE. Yeah, this is definitely going to be something special.
(Specifically Chicago)
Also note, that location is Wacker Drive. Pretty big for the movie already, there’s so many clips have been taken from there, but there’s also a scene where The Dark Knight is on the Sears Tower overlooking the view. Now, those coordinates (after you google map it) point to a park just north west of the Sears Tower. So if you looked up at the Sears Tower, and Batman was still there, he’d be looking down at us.
That last part is a bit far-fetched but the excitement for this film has made me one of Joker’s clowns. Less than 7 hours away, we’ll find out soon…
[…] as two live video feeds were posted to the Citizens for Batman website and crowds gathered at the two locations in New York and Chicago. Fans that turned up for the event received Gotham Times newspapers and a collection of CFB […]
It is possible to fail in many ways…while to succeed is possible only in one way.
