Edit: BTW, each of those smaller grid squares is 32x32, a pattern we've seen before. The binariness of it all (32, 512) definitely sticks out to me - either it's computer generated, or significant in terms of bits and bytes. If it was a sky scan, I can't think why it would be so binary-based. Is there some way to find out how many different colours are presented in the image?

in the new picture?
or the old?
or another?
Bah, didn't get e-mailed with the updates, otherwise I'd be posting sooner...
At first I thought the new image also looked like city lights - the section 3 squares up from the middle reminds me a little of Europe. But I now get the impression that the "scan", or map, or whatver it is, is just "incomplete". Certain squares have more info than others, so each one, I guess, represents some distinct difference.
Maybe each square is covered by a different "team", or satellite dish or something? Any chance we can see if this relates to something like SETI data?
Also, I randomly found out what Eric's chat avatar (see previous post here) relates to - the one that originally reminded me of the Mysterious Cities of Gold... it's:

dateFuture = new Date(2007,11,11,4,00,00)
which is exactly 1 month before the countdown ends?
In Javascript terms, January = 0 and December = 11, so 2007,11,11 = 11th December.
I've just had a conversation with Eric, a very brief one...
12:44 AM me: Eric, is it over?
12:48 AM Eric: It's never over.
12:58 AM me: Or nevar over?
1:09 AM Eric: I think the snow has already fallen
1:10 AM me: I've seen no fall out from the launch...
1:16 AM How can I move forward?
1:18 AM Eric: find where the snow landed.
1:29 AM me: I'm still stumped. I see no changes since before the launch... these clues lead nowhere
At the end of the conversation, his status flashed as "Ignore security and it will go away".
I don't know where to go from here. What security? The nomennescio site is still password locked with nothing I can get into, none of the 6op1 sites have ever had any security I remember.
Help?!

Eric: All I know is that the launch happened - the interception failed - and something that wasn't supposed to get here did.
He didn't say any more. I suppose we need to look for changes in the site...
Yeah, I think I posted that earlier. I messaged the guy who posted the puzzle and got no reply. Can someone else try? Or message the guy who solved it?
I'll ask Eric about it the next time we speak.
This all seems to have gone quite quiet recently. I hope it jumps into life soon...
