This new viral site links in with the Acme Secu­rity Sys­tems mes­sage where the Gotham Police Major Crimes Unit was unveiled with logo. The URL was dis­cov­ered very close to the time but the site hadn’t gone live, today it has:

GPDMCU: www​.gpdmcu​.com

The site lists a con­tact email address (which was orig­i­nally incor­rectly point­ing to a .org address), contact@​gpdmcu.​com.

The Clown Travel Agency prize has been unveiled, it is a link to Acme Secu­rity Sys­tems, a page with the descrip­tion of “delos”:

www​.acmese​cu​ri​tysys​tems​.com/​d​e​los

The aim is to deac­ti­vate a par­tic­u­lar secu­rity sys­tem, and the pass­word is “Nee­dle”.

Enter­ing your tele­phone leads them to call you with an auto­mated mes­sage, on answer­ing you need to clearly state “Nee­dle” as the pass­word. Say­ing “Hello” fails the pass­word check. You’ll then be greeted by a fel­low (Gor­don) from Gotham Police Depart­ment stat­ing that your iden­tity has been cap­tured and that you “work for us now”. It is a very excit­ing and inter­est­ing phone call if you get it to go through.

Mean­ings to the num­bers in the Iden­tity Cap­tured image — they are charges:
156.05 Unau­tho­rized use of a com­puter.
156.10 Com­puter tres­pass.
156.27 Com­puter tam­per­ing in the first degree.
156.35 Crim­i­nal pos­ses­sion of com­puter related mate­r­ial.

Tele­phone Transcript:

Woman: Hello, this is the Acme Secu­rity Sys­tems voice print iden­ti­fi­ca­tion sys­tem, please say the pass­word clearly.

Caller: NEEDLE

Gor­don: This is Jim Gor­don, major crimes, Gotham Police Depart­ment. Not the voice you were expect­ing… huh? We have your name. We have your num­ber. We have your computer’s IP address. So what I’m say­ing is, we have you. Con­sider your­self the Gotham Police Department’s newest recruit. You see, this works one of two ways, either you’re going to jail for con­spir­acy in a crim­i­nal enter­prise, or, you’ll work for me. We’ll be in touch. Oh, have a great day!

All pack­ages have been uncov­ered! Now time to head over to Acme Secu­rity Sys­tems or con­tinue fol­low­ing our coverage

As expected, The Clown Travel Agency viral puz­zle has come online — this time they have gone inter­na­tional. By click­ing on the manilla enve­lope (donned with the text “Proud Mother” in the bot­tom right) a sheet of loca­tions is revealed — from Paris to Sao Paolo. At each of these loca­tions is a package.

The text reads:

“Ready to have a ball?
A spe­cial bag of fun awaits the first to claim it. But you bet­ter strike fast, there’s no time to spare”

The mes­sage hints at the sport of Ten Pin Bowl­ing, and this mes­sage from Alex at SHH con­firms that:

I con­tacted the Tavi­s­tock Hotel, but I was too late, how­ever they gave me some info on the pack­age. Some­one col­lected it and inside was a bowl­ing ball, and a nifty smart mobile phone. On the ball was a mobile phone num­ber etched on it. He rang the num­ber apa­prently and was told they now knew who he was and to await fur­ther instructions.

The folks over at SHH and Omelette have posted their pic­tures of the packages.

The note that came with it reads:

“Nice work, clown! Now call the num­ber on the ball imme­di­ately, from this phone and THIS PHONE ONLY. Don’t give this num­ber to any­one else, or I’ll know.

Hope­fully, your cohorts will be in the same league as you, because once all your points are racked up, I’ll give you all some­thing that will really bowl you over…”

A bowl­ing ball, a joker card, a phone, a mes­sage and a bag for the lot.

I thought I would split out the Har­vey Dent related viral news to a new post, save every­thing from get­ting too con­gested as the news keeps com­ing. It seems that those signed up to par­tic­i­pate in the cam­paign have started to receive their rewards in the post,

SHH User Anita18 received a Gotham City voter’s card in the post:

Oth­ers have received the lat­est issue of The Gotham Times. A lucky few have also had some inter­est­ing Har­vey Dent pro­mo­tion but­tons, with one side melted or burnt away (alas Two Face) — sent via the Con­cerned Cit­i­zens For A Bet­ter Gotham (pic­tures thanks to Marvel152):

We’ve had some more viral news sub­mit­ted to us in the past 24 hours, let’s see what else we have…

Joseph Can­do­loro

First up, emails that were sent to Mr Joseph Can­do­loro were met with this reply,

Your busi­ness is impor­tant to us. Mr. Can­do­loro sees the law as some­thing that should work FOR peo­ple, not against them. We’re excited about talk­ing to you about how we can help you, so please call our offices dur­ing reg­u­lar busi­ness hours.

Con­tin­u­ing with this theme, from the record found at St Swith­uns, Mr. Can­do­loro mar­ried one Angela Rossi, Bryan Gray has pointed out that enter­ing “Al Rossi” or “Ran­dolfo Rossi” into the record search leads us to Albert Rossi’s (a wit­ness at the mar­riage) Bap­tism cer­tifi­cate. (Ran­dolfo Rossi is the father of Albert Rossi).

Through some clever detec­tive work the Rossi trend con­tin­ues. Rossi’s Deli which was the orig­i­nal meet­ing place of the “Cit­i­zens for Bat­man”, Dark­xXxPixie at unfo­rums found the web­site, Rossi’s Del­i­catessen — www​.rossis​del​i​catessen​.com:

Gotham City Clerk

Pierre has also informed me of Gotham City Clerk web­site — www​.gotham​c​i​ty​clerk​.com, which bears some infor­ma­tional mes­sages but most impor­tantly a web­site for another DA candidate.

Please excuse the incon­ve­nience, as we are cur­rently rebuild­ing our web­site and file sys­tem after server dam­age due to the recent Orange Line destruc­tion. We hope to be back online serv­ing Gotham City very soon.

Forms and appli­ca­tions for the fol­low­ing ser­vices are still avail­able at our N. 6th St. offices: Park­ing per­mits, busi­ness licenses, dog licenses, festival/block party/raffle/bazaar per­mits, night­club licenses, oath of office forms, oper­a­tor licenses, retail licenses, liquor licenses, street ven­dor licenses, med­ical reg­is­tra­tion forms, notice of claim forms, and garage sale permits.

The Gotham City Clerk announces approval for exten­sive absen­tee voter sup­port in the upcom­ing munic­i­pal elec­tion. Once the sys­tem is in place, we will post details and pro­ce­dures for both online and mail-in absen­tee balloting.

Trust Garcetti

That can­di­date is Roger Garcetti and his cam­paign web­site is — www​.trust​garcetti​.com. This comes with some new pro­mo­tional but­tons to pro­mote Mr Garcetti, an email address to vol­un­teer — “volunteers@​trustgarcetti.​com” and under the Who is Garcetti we find this — what are the chances that these lead to fur­ther sites?

The Gotham Fra­ter­nal Order of Police says, “Garcetti has the
expe­ri­ence, and part­ners with police to stop crime.”

The Gotham Police Union says “Roger Garcetti has the integrity,
the tough­ness, and the judge­ment to lead and win the war against crime.”

The Ital­ian Her­itage Soci­ety of Gotham says, “Roger Garcetti’s
ded­i­ca­tion and loy­alty make him the can­di­date to trust.”

3/30 BREAKING NEWS: ACTING DISTRICT ATTORNEY ROGER GARCETTI

ISSUES STATEMENT ON CHARGES AGAINST HARVEY DENT

“The charges made by some of Gotham’s finest police offi­cers against Har­vey Dent are extremely seri­ous. These brave men in blue have stood up against Har­vey Dent’s intim­i­da­tions and the tsunami of pos­i­tive press Har­vey Dent has been reap­ing to tell their story. It is an astound­ing act of courage, and I com­mend them all for hav­ing the guts to tell the truth to the Gotham pub­lic. I salute each and every one of them.

These police offi­cers are some of the finest we have. Many have received medals for brav­ery on duty. All of them place their lives at risk every day to pro­tect you and me.

It was always obvi­ous that Har­vey Dent’s mad lust for power was cor­rupt­ing his pros­e­cu­tions. Now, we have proof. Affi­davits and tes­ti­mony by police offi­cers that Har­vey Dent threat­ened and bribed police offi­cers to entice them to tes­tify against their inno­cent broth­ers on the force.

It is time to end the sorry chap­ter that Har­vey Dent has forced upon the Gotham peo­ple. I expect his res­ig­na­tion from his job and his with­drawal from the race, if he has any honor at all left.”

Act­ing Dis­trict Attor­ney Roger Garcetti

Trust Garcetti 

We stand at a cross­roads in Gotham. Ours is a city of great char­ac­ter, with unlim­ited poten­tial and a cre­ative, diverse, and hard-working families.

But Gotham faces a crit­i­cal prob­lem — grow­ing crime. To take on the prob­lem of crime, we need expe­ri­enced lead­ers that tar­get mob­sters, thugs, and killers — not the peo­ple who are sworn to pro­tect us. If I’m elected Dis­trict Attor­ney, I’ll give the police the tools they need to fight crime — because that’s how we’re going to make our streets safe.

Every day I work hand in hand with the real heros of Gotham — our brave men in blue. Gotham cops are some of the finest men I’ve ever had the honor to know. Every day, they put their life on the line to pro­tect this city. They risk their lives because they believe in jus­tice, in law, in order.

And that’s why the Gotham Police Union has endorsed me, Roger Garcetti. They’ve come to know me very well in my time in Gotham. I’ve always sup­ported the police in every way pos­si­ble. And now, when they are under attack by a “run­away pros­e­cu­tor,” they’ve turned to me once again. In their endorse­ment, they said, “Roger Garcetti has the integrity, the tough­ness, and the judge­ment to lead and win the war against crime. He is the best friend police have ever had, and we endorse him strongly.”

I am hon­ored to have the sup­port of Gotham police offi­cers. They are the best peo­ple to answer the ques­tion, “Who will make our city safer?” And the answer is me, Roger Garcetti.

Vote for me, and I will pro­tect all the peo­ple of Gotham.

Thank you.

Here’s the new Joker viral web­site we’ve been wait­ing for — now we await the fool’s day puz­zles:

Clown Travel Agency — www​.clown​trav​e​la​gency​.com

Thanks Agent ONeal

(this comes from the ana­gram we posted earlier)

IBelieveIn​Har​vey​Dent​.com has updated with an “urgent announce­ment” con­cern­ing slan­der­ous remarks. Many elec­tion cam­paign par­tic­i­pants have had a phone call alert­ing them to this.

3/30 Urgent Announcement

Har­vey Dent rejects the slan­der­ous charges made by a shad­owy group of unknowns call­ing them­selves “Con­cerned Cit­i­zens for a Bet­ter Gotham.”

Har­vey Dent has always been truth­ful and upright in his pros­e­cu­tion of cor­rupt cops.

There is no truth to any of the charges put forth by the oper­a­tives behind this shame­less group.

Don’t lis­ten to the lies and innu­en­dos of the peo­ple who want to keep Gotham the way it is!

Update from the Joker

The Joker phones that came in the cakes have been ring­ing again, this comes from one of the “clowns left in” Vlkers54 via Hol­ly­wood Chicago:

“Hey clown, ready to get to work? (I replied “yes”.) Ok, good. You are 1 of 17 clowns still left in the game (remem­ber, there were 22 phones intially) I have a let­ter for you. Here is your secret letter..are you ready for it? Your secret let­ter is “L” as in “Laugh”. Can you remem­ber that? Good. Now get to work and tell all of your goons. We’ll be in touch soon.”

The let­ters cur­rently stand at:
W-E-Y-R-V-T-A-N-C-A-L-C-E-G — looks like it may include the word “Har­vey Dent”

I just noticed this name at the very bot­tom of the Con­cerned Cit­i­zens website,

“Joseph Can­do­loro, Esquire, is the founder of Con­cerned Cit­i­zens for a Bet­ter Gotham.”

Try­ing out the name yields this inter­est­ing web­site: www​.joseph​can​do​loro​.com –peo­ple may want to try out that email address and tele­phone number:

Joseph Can­do­loro and his asso­ciates pro­vide legal rep­re­sen­ta­tion in fam­ily law cases in Gotham. Our ser­vices are highly indi­vid­u­al­ized to address our clients’ par­tic­u­lar situations.

Fam­ily law lit­i­ga­tion is com­pli­cated by ties of blood and emo­tion, but we have devel­oped an arse­nal of tech­niques to cut through com­pli­ca­tions with sur­gi­cal pre­ci­sion, an approach that while it seems ruth­less, we feel causes the least long term dam­age. Our approach includes a per­son­al­ized attorney-client rela­tion­ship, based upon each client’s indi­vid­ual cir­cum­stances. We strive to be the voice of rea­son dur­ing a highly emo­tional time, and we work hard to set­tle mat­ters with­out lit­i­ga­tion when­ever possible.

When lit­i­ga­tion is unavoid­able, we are for­mi­da­ble advo­cates for the clients of our firm.
