Back to recursive.
Someone jumped up and hollered about timezones. Checked. All good.
Working on the assumption of 3000 drops, and 24 hour EST clock - because that's how the hint came in. Image attached.
That means in theory that the first 2400 drops are potentially viable in this method. (Gah. Hope that logic is correct.) Would explain why Q would go back and delete things. Which means anon must ask:
DOES ANYONE HAVE IMAGES OF THE BOARDS CLEAN UP PRIOR TO DELETION
Take drop. Find time stamp. Find next drop based on that timestamp (no seconds for this.)
Eventually a line of new narrative should come forward if this is to be useful.
Still planning to distill drops according to "hashtags" as well. E.g., "Godfather III"
Oh, and can someone please unwind the steganography? Anon came close, but sucked at it. So close.
