There is a bit of crossover between the markings on Ink's hand and his head. Kinda makes me wonder why he'd bother with the same image multiple times unless there was some additional information in the repetition.
If there's anything I missed, please let me know (which is probably a lot).

Here's another version: http://i625.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps8b4fa6c1.jpg
I made the letters bigger, the hand picture is bigger and I found a few more symbols when I enlarged everything.
Edit #2: Here, I finally figured out how to add attachments. Derp.
UGH.......................................
Everytime one of them is like "Should we look a little further??" or "Keep Going???"..... I am just like "NOOOOOOO!!!!! RUN YOU FOOLS!!!!!"
:meh:
That's really good! I'll have to have a full look through it when I'm less busyQuote:

Recently, i've noticed more that each episode feels like it's recounting the events, in more a past tense, like someone is reading what happened from the logs. It's probably just because you write in past tense when writing something like that, but i'm not sure....
This is all i can think of....Quote:

That's really neat! My only hesitation in believing that is a few references that I've found to ancient Egyptians having no use for the brain at all. Other organs were thought to be important and were removed and stored in canopic jars. The brain, on the other hand, was removed through the nose with a hook and discarded.Quote:

Okay, so I'm out of ideas. I've tried re-making the file so it's big enough for people to actually see but every time I try the words get smaller. Any ideas on how to make it readable?
Maybe make the images separate from the Key? that should give a better resolution for the pictures and the words can be as big as you want.Quote:

You can feel free to make this part of the Wiki. That way you can update things as you go. Perhaps a section called "Symbols"Quote:

Now he just had to control them and he found out how to that. what way can he remember a formula? by tattooing it. I am sorry but I think he started the whole thing. I know that people say he was in jail or transport when it broke out, but that doesnt mean he couldnt leave something with a timer or pay someone to do something for him. INK letting puck go and riley, He does know what he is doing. I think he likes the hunt and he did all this on purpose so people can fear him, thats why he leaves some of them alive. I might be crazy but I just keep thinking this.
No need. I created a whole new section for you. http://www.zombiepodcast.com/forum/s...le=The+SymbolsQuote:

And how would you explain zombies showing up in Hawaii at roughly the same time as in LA? And the mentioning of many hotspots when it all started?Quote:

So biomass from humans' body's south-pole-exits might have hit quickly moving propellers of all kinds big time ... But to me, although this might be logic in a way, this would sound too crazy - especially because this would mean that during the first hours of the outbreak several slow-turners must have hit the roads, trains, planes, and ships quickly enough to spread the z-agent accordingly; and from the first episode we know how quickly the major traffic broke down in reaction to the zombie-panic. So I prefer sticking with the idea that the z-agent has spread from a different source, while Ink was able to adjust the zombie-frail in his favor based on his skillsszzZZ in all kinds bio-engineering. And I feel inclined to politely disagree with you. :nik:
Best wishes!

He met the Man of Steel and failed to use his mutant-powers which broke him ...Quote:

Jannit's list excellent list is not editable. Do we add a numbered list?
Ok. Good to know. No more beating that dead horse for me.....Quote:

Once again, we see Roberts either use restraint (only killed one person instead of going all Chuck Norris on the lot of them) or actually have refrained from killing with his own hands. From the known eyewitness accounts, how many people do we know Ink has killed since Z-day? Paul in the Tower and the red shirt gate operator at the Colony in Ch 36. Who else? Am I missing anyone else?
Sounds like he has either turned his minions on people or let the test subjects kill each other in all the other cases. Why the lack of personal involvement? Is that why he let Kalani, Riley, and Puck go? He had others with him that could have ended Skittles and CJ so the theory doesn't play out there. And even in the Tower in Ch 11, he ran off when threatened by four men armed only with a knife.
I'm not sure where I started going with this but it's turned into thinking more about who Roberts is. And it doesn't seem to be the hands dirty kind of guy. But he apparently got his hands really dirty before Z-day.....
Argh! My brain is sprained :britt:
Sorry for the delay. I've got a format worked out and started but wont have time to upload it all until tomorrow. Life has gotten in the way.Quote:

Attachment 2961
Does this black symbol on a dark grey background :britt: (click on it to see it clearly) look like the symbols (#'s 2 & 4 on Jannit's awesome attachment) on Inks head? Alternate I'm not sure of the top of it (the s part which is sometimes a snake)
Personally, i don't think Ink feels threatened by any of the survivors. In chapter 11, Ink laughed at them before he jumped out of the (2nd or 3rd?) floor. To me, that doesn't sound like he's threatened, it feels like he thinks its a game, and he is confident he will win.Quote:

I have some possibilities on some of the symbols.
It hit me earlier that a few of these sounded American Indian, and when looking at them in this light, i found a few matches. Some make sense, but but the others not so sure.
A fish on fire. Stands for plentiful fish, or many fish.
Attachment 2962
Bird foot. Besides birds, it means good omen and convey authority... and there is always the link to the crows of this story.
Attachment 2964
A three-lines rainbow with a five-lined fan beneath it. It means rain.
Attachment 2963
This one i'm not sure about, and I was hesitant about adding it but When i saw it I instantly thought of the description, so I brought it here to be discussed.
