Damn.. I've stared at this image for days and cant get anything more out of it.

The only REAL clues we have are:

1.) "impressive, many have solved part of the challenge
have you seen everything?"

2.) White dots throughout the image

3.) "Reset reality. Message 512" (said five, one, two)

4.) Thank You
AACI
aaci.org

5.) Arrow on left fan

6.) 0 and 4 on the board

7.) dots on fan maybe pointing to a clock ( left one 5 hours right one 12 minutes )

And thats it.

I tried all those ROTed sites, only these worked:

http://ccek.org/ A site that suspiciously doesn't load
http://www.ddfl.org/ A pet site...i think
http://kkms.org/ Cheap domains
http://mmou.org/ Suspicious passwordbox
http://pprx.org/ Medication sales?
http://ssua.org/ South shore baseball league
http://ttvb.org/ Text only tech site

The password box looks suspicious:
http://mmou.org/

Any possible passwords?

512

How do people keep getting a 12 for the minutes? The only thing that I see is 2 minutes... Also if it were a barcode, could that barcode if compressed be the price of the product in the image? No possible passwords seeing as it is in Chinese/Japanese

when the minute hand is on the 2 it is 10 minutes past the hour. I'd say it's slightly past the two, about 12 minutes. Gotta think of it as the minute hand.

Duh...

My Stupidity has reached unexplicable height on that one, but what if it WERE the hour hand pointing at the number? Here is a collection of numbers based on what has been written in this thread already.

512
502
712
702
04 - Could be a year...?

This may be helpful or it may not be.

Follow-up: 502.com is a very strange website...

On that 502 site there is the text 502 Inc. but rather than being written using text it is an image...also, why bu a domain if your gonna put two words on it and nothing else...I'm going to look into that...

502 Inc.

Yeah, but other than 502.com being registered by GoDaddy.com, the domain was registered in March of 2000, and reregistered on March of 2005, but what IS wierd is the expiration of March 2006... And yes I agree that using a GIF for words is wierd unless the font can't be assured on all machines and you REALLY want that font.

I'm just going to throw out a random tangent. There seems to be a few referances to ferrari thus far. The ferrari 360, Enzo... While looking for images on google for 512, I found out there is a Ferrari 512.

Like I said, just throwing it out. Maybe it will trigger something in someone else's head.

The arrow

So has anyone figured out what the arrow on the left fan is for/doing?

I photoshopped and zoomed in to see if there was anything hidden but nothing (in case you wanted to try)

Arrow in fan

Well is there something that we are supposed to see that relates to the Fan and the arrow?

Fans usually have arrows on them that show the direction it spins.

I don't think the arrow is of any importance.
