Ollie’s App has picked up 19 thumbprints fit for scanning from Ben. Reminders: You can only pick up one a day. You can ask Riley to search for keywords, but just know that the search function isn't fully reliable. The clips may be damaged, and you'll have to fix them to hear the entire thing. In good faith I should tell you that one of these thumbprints will trigger the end of the chapter and cut you off from the rest. Good luck.

My suggestions, useless though they may be, are that Riley should start with anywhere that's likely to have other supernatural forces present. There's always a possibility of some kind of supernatural allies (yes, or enemies, but we'd have to deal with those anyway)) that coulf be utilised. Going to the "territories" of other supes also reduces the odds of us running into something Harrison-related prematurely (you know what they say - "the enemy of my enemy is my friend, or at the very least, not somebody I want to cause additional conflict with". I figure we'd better see if the Faeries can be of any help... and I cannot believe I just said that). I've listed how save I think each place might be, but you guys will probably have a way better idea than I would so... just consdier this me throwing all my thoughts on paper in hopes of getting somewhere. 1. The Farm - I know nothing about this, but could be dangerous? farms aren't known for being especially crowded. 2. Alexandria Park - Seemed fairly safe the last time we were there when Riley found the Thunderstone. It's Lexie's, right? Safe y/n? 3. Boneyfiddle Esplande - Is that his territory? Boneyfiddle is somebody who might owe Riley, not to mention us. Could be helpful. 4. Floodwall - 5. Scotio National Park - Likely empty, that's risky. 6. Ice Cream Place - ICE CREAM (I say Riley goes there first, likely to be crowded... also, because Ice Cream.) 7. Shawnee Forest - See Number 6. All the same, I'm gonna guess that had something to do with a previous Native American population so might serve well to talk to people who know more about the area before going. 8. Downtown Parking Lot - Very much depends on the time of day/ night how safe that is. 9. Scotio Spring - 10, Some Back Alley - OH YEAH THAT'S TOTALLY SAFE (for real, nope). 11. Kentucky Bridge - This is an odd one. Bridges ring alarm bells off the bat. Bridges are usually the hide out for certain mythological creatures, and running water also presents a kind of... magical or supernatural (not to mention literal) barrier. Could be a place to be twisted to Riley's advantage. or Harrison's. Don't ask me. 12. Johnson's Electronics - Ollie's. Likely safe, right? 13. Riverfront Levy - Same potential risks as in the river area... what IS a Levy anyway? 14. UPS ... Like the packing company? Welp. No idea what Ben was doing there! 15. River State Cafe - Crowded, likely to have people there who remmeber Ben, or itneracted with him in some way - Maybe Harrison too. 16. Funeral Home - Ding ding ding! Possible Urn location? I dunno, like I said, I'm throwing out guesstimates. Still, risky because... well. Funerals, dead people, goes hand in hand, ya know? 17. Trailhead Park - Same issues as the parks but again, possibly supernatural forces at play, for better or worse. 18. Forest - I don't advise going there without supernatural protection. 19. Riverside Quarry - who knows what's happened there. Whether or not this is dangerous depends on whether or not the quarry is active and working? Either way, that's dangerous for reasons both supernatural and entirely normal. We don't want Riley in a landslide. That's all I got.

My first instinct was Johnsons, since it was familar, but considering the time of year and the fact that scarlet recommended crowded locations maybe the ice cream place is the best place to start. Plus, icecream.
EDIT: Scarab, a levee is like a water bank. It's supposed to help with water levels/ prevent floods of country-sides. Think Holland.

Just in case you guys were wondering if there was a pattern. Ain't no pattern that I can see. Unless an actual real map would show different.

I want to know more about some of these forest points, given what we do know about fae involvement, but I'm worried about sending Riley out there. I'm thinking maybe Boneyfiddle Esplanade next, but nothing else is jumping out at me.

I am leaning towards Boneyfiddle or Johnson's, really don't want to trigger the end and lock us out which is why Boneyfiddle makes me a BIT nervous, but it is possible he could help if he's around.
Johnson's seems to be what people are leaning towards also - might be fine.

(i s2g admin tells us this stuff to DELIBERATELY get us to metagame xD)
I'm with queenkaldwin. Boneyfiddle Promenade Esplanade has an auspicious name and could be interesting. And it should come as no surprise to anyone that I'm in favor of anything involving the Johnson family.
(what the hell is an esplanade anyway i don't even)

Riley visited Johnson's Electronics today, taking it out of the running. I'm inclined to go along with the consensus of the esplanade, assuming that's in the public eye as it seems from the map.
Also, a handy list of places that we have and have not been to, which I will try to keep updated:
1. The Farm
2. Alexandria Park
3. Boneyfiddle Esplanade 4. Floodwall
5. Scioto National Park
6. Ice Cream Place 7. Shawnee Forest 8. Downtown Parking Lot 9. Scioto Spring
10. Some Back Alley
11. Kentucky Bridge
12. Johnson's Electronics 13. Riverfront Levy
14. UPS
15. River State Cafe
16. Funeral Home 17. Trailhead Park 18. Ft. Cane Forest 19. Riverside Quarry

(what the hell is an esplanade anyway i don't even) It's like... a big open plane or promenade thing. Basically an empty space, usually next to a body of water where people walk (surprise surprise, there's that river again!) I'm with you guys. Let's go see of Boneyfiddle has anything to tell us, in person or otherwise.

I'd say let's leave the forests last, if possible, I think the final moments of Ben's life occured their. Speaking of which I have a theory that the last thumbprint will be as near as possible to where Ben died but that's just my theory.
... My next vote is also for Boneyfiddle.

I have a bad feeling about boneyfiddle, because that might trigger the end

I have a bad feeling about boneyfiddle, because that might trigger the end It's not the apocalypse yet, dude. And Boneyfiddle is just the recordkeeper, so far as I can tell. OOG: I feel that the creators would not offer us a situation in which leapfrogging right to the endgame is an option, at least not like this. This is probably, like many ARG's, being run somewhat on the fly and adapting to the situation.
