# Snocks recovery record

The Day 18 Christmas Experiments page was only an iframe wrapper. Its target
was:

`http://88.190.47.89/victor_snocks/public/`

The server is offline. The Internet Archive preserved one copy of its root
document at 2012-12-27T19:21:46Z:

<https://web.archive.org/web/20121227192146id_/http://88.190.47.89:80/victor_snocks/public/>

That exact 1,962-byte document is retained as
`source/remote-root-20121227.html.txt` with SHA-256
`b1ebd9c7a0157fe25be1f55bd002c19013a579f1940985919b86d531aedcc5d2`.
It identifies the missing runtime precisely:

- local `css/styles.css`;
- local jQuery, `jquery.base64`, SWFObject, and `js/client.js`;
- images `imgs/sapin01.gif` and `imgs/title.png`; and
- a Socket.IO server and client library at `http://88.190.47.89:5000/`.

The capture contains only the root markup and mouse-following text. The client
logic, styles, images, Flash integration, and multiplayer server protocol were
not captured. The root's full URL-prefix CDX index contains no other successful
records.

## Source audit

- Original organizer commit:
  `ca8f472cc51edfd319749efdb6f6bf4cc75d8224`
- Author identity in that commit: Victor Pamelard
  `<victor.pamelard@gmail.com>`
- The author's first-party GitHub account is `victorpmlr`; an authenticated
  owner-repository listing exposes only five repositories, with no Snocks
  source. Searching public code and commit history for `victor_snocks`,
  `sapin01.gif`, and the captured dependency combination found no payload.
- All refs and unreachable objects in `Makio64/theexperimentalcalendar` were
  audited. They contain the organizer wrapper, not the remote application.
- Arquivo.pt returned no URL-history result for the application prefix.

Rebuilding a client without `client.js` or the Socket.IO message contract would
invent the core experiment. The route therefore remains an explicit recovery
record rather than presenting a speculative offline recreation.
