So, there is a wild guess in the spreadsheet chat that it is Richard who is sending the messages from the future. Does anyone who has a good e-mail relationship with him volunteer to try and talk him into it? perhaps the fast flying bananas are fas has anything to do with it?
(If this is not the case, I guess the PMs might be quite amused...)

And even if it has nothing to do with the fast flying bananas then someone may still be able to talk him into giving us the code. We could even try and persuade him that he should trust the guy from the future, by trying to make him believe that the guy from the future IS him. I would say out of all of us amandel has the best e-mail relationship with him.

New post from Beth, just about this last key:
Quote:
We are down to the last key launching the self destruct system! Good work people!
I got a message in twitter from a friend that the hint to the last key is: "This is the most important activation key. There are no hints available. You just have to know it"
Looks like Richard is already heading back, so we are running out of time. Anyone have any ideas what could be the most important thing that Richard is talking about?
So what's the most important thing to Richard? Hm. Trying "Domination" Edit - Nope.

... By chance, is Richard the most important thing to Richard? I'm not sure how to be making ten letters of him, though.

Richard's Twitter wrote:
@bplentier As usual! I have the same as my password so it's practically unbreakable. Also, I put a little devious mislead in the key info
Beth said she saw Richard's password on the video camera, a few blog posts ago.. have DM'd her to ask what it was!
What's this 'mislead' though?

Mehetabel! It's such a well deserved *bow* as "Self destruction completed. All files and aggravating evidence have been deleted permanently from Avecira's servers."

Beth has posted a final goodbye on her blog along with a congratulatory picture. Thanks for my first ARG proper guys. I felt that there was a couple problems with this ARG and a lot of it was quite technical but I'm glad I stuck with it. Thanks again guys.

Like ads, this was my first ARG too. Thanks to you all, the cooperation made this a terrific experience.
I hope we can find ourselves tackling more challenges in the future!

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
antigun-locators is an anagram for CONGRATULATIONS (my sentiments to everybody, players & PM, also)

I wonder something: there are 14.000 views in this topic. How many lurkers do you think there were here?

Not that many. The strange spy numbers thread is 8 pages longer and has 83342 views. So, we don't have that many, all things considering.

Unless they have a lot of lurkers too.
But anyway, what games are you going to play/are playing now?
