April 24, 2008 (Discovery)
The packages from Joseph Candoloro intercepted by participants for Operation Slipknot turned out to be Joker-associated, since these participants received a text message on their new phones from humanresources@whysoserious.com:
I wouldn't worry about Gordon. ITS ALL PART OF THE PLAN |
This lead to Whysoserious.com/Itsallpartoftheplan, the starting point for a game that will presumably commence on April 28.
The countdown site features Jokerized portraits of numerous political figures on a wall, with a Joker card run through with a red knife near the top.
Frames
Each of the portrait frames are labeled with a city. All of the people were/are also featured on US currency.

Poster
Clicking on the Joker card (stuck to the wall with a red knife) leads the participant to a new poster for The Dark Knight
April 25, 2008
Locations
The portraits are updated with instructions to meet at certain coordinates, linked to Google Maps, in each city at a specific time (counted down) on Monday, April 28, similar to the Whysoserious.com/ComicCon scavenger hunt game.
Gather with 300 of your closest friends at this exact spot on April 28th.
You'll need to be in contact with a partner-in-crime who has online access to relay your instructions once you're there. These instructions will give you the TRAIL to follow, but be sure to look both ways when crossing the street; we wouldn't want you to make an unscheduled visit to the ER now, would we? Put on a smile and plan to spend about an hour or so bonding with your fellow clowns. Check back here often for updates or changes. |
The emphasis on "TRAIL" and "ER" implies that the reward for this game will be the next Dark Knight theatrical trailer.
The locations are as follows (times are approximate and grouped by simultaneous times, but they will be no earlier than the times listed):

From a post on Collider, it appears that players who go to the locations will be participating in an event or screening of some sort at 6:30pm.

4:00 PM EDT: London
At 4PM EDT, London was the first city to begin the game. Their portrait link was updated with instructions for online "Oracles" to give to their partners on the ground, who would then give them numerical answers that was requested in the clues.
Ready to get cracking? Here are the instructions to relay to your clowns on the ground. Don't go losing your mind because you need to remember all the answers - you'll need them in about 30 minutes. Step 1: By the "ubique-itous" statue with the alien friend, face forward and count every ground floor column to your right. Beware the policeman's black and blue stares. Step 2: Up the stairs prepare for battle. You'll be greeted with open arms. On the island, discover those who died in war and divide by the women who surround them. Step 3: Go to the place of the frilly collar and count the number of steps you see in stone and light. |
30 minutes into the game, the portrait could be clicked on to reveal a hidden safe requiring a 6-digit combination to open. Using the answers collected by the players on the ground (35-90-48), the "Oracles" were able to open the safe, revealing a note from the Joker to the on-site players:
Good work, scavengers! Online clowns, be sure to give your on-the-ground cohorts these final instructions:
Around the bend from the Miserable People is an exotic gate. Your contact will be waiting there. He will give you your final set of instructions. Stay together. Follow orders. You might have what it takes to pull this off. J |
Following these instructions, the players on the ground were sent to a movie theater, where each received a Joker card and a raffle ticket. They were led into a theater and were given a private showing of a new trailer for The Dark Knight. One participant was randomly chosen to receive the film reel of the trailer.
5:30 PM EDT: Boston, Philadelphia, New York, Toronto
At 5:30, the events in the eastern United States and Toronto began.
Boston | Philadelphia | New York | Toronto |
---|---|---|---|
The safe numbers are as follows: | |||
6:30 PM EDT: Chicago, Dallas, Kansas City
At 6:30, the third round of events began in the central United States.
8:30 PM EDT: Seattle, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Sao Paulo
At 8:30, the final round of events began in the western United States and Sao Paulo, Brazil.
San Fransisco's safe reveals another clue. This is an alphabet clue. Each J responds to a letter. When unscrambled, the letters reveal sittingducks.
This leads to Whysoserious.com/sittingducks a three row duck shooting game.
The ducks represent binary code, blue ducks being 0 and yellow ducks being 1.
1st row: "To win shoot" 2nd row: "Only row two" 3rd row: ybbyyyybbybby
