1463?

order of something to do with the pictures?

pic one is the quation resulting in 2000 right?
pic 4 is the 4+3 motherboard?
pic six, the comic?
pic 3, the poppies?


Actually, based on the summery here, and according to the time each was posted in the forums, the order is as follows:

1. 4+3
2. 10³ + 10³
3. Poppies
4. "Beware" Comics
5. N/W Coords (Leading to this)
6. White Hart (sCt)

"a sinful garden" might also be the Garden of Eden... God had a vision of the perfect creature... I don't know.

Well, its a waste of time me taking part in this.

Even if I could come up with a reasonable solution, I can only type it in the answer space, as soon as I hit 'solve' up pops 'page cannot be displayed'.

Whats the frikkin' point! Twisted Evil

It's probably an ISP or DNS problem, and not OurColony's website, since I can access it easily, and try sollutions freely.

My theory: Each image leads to a number, and we should combine the numbers of all the pictures.

Pic 1: http://www.ourcolony.net/images/gallery/14660.jpg
Simple - 10^3 is 1000. Add together, and it gives us 2000.

Pic 2: http://www.ourcolony.net/images/gallery/29420.jpg
Not confirmed by myself, but others have claimed it is the coordinates of Area 51. Our number: 51.

Pic 3: http://www.ourcolony.net/images/gallery/38914.jpg
No idea yet. Flowers? Maybe the number of them? Anybody know what kind they are?

Pic 4: http://www.ourcolony.net/images/gallery/47610.jpg
This seems too simple, but I guess the number here is 7.

Pic 5: http://www.ourcolony.net/images/gallery/227438.jpg
The pub in the picture is the White Hart Inn. My bet is we're after the street adress. 34.

Pic 6: http://www.ourcolony.net/images/gallery/beware.jpg
First issue of an old comic. I bet the number we're after is 1.

poppies signify remeberance day - the most famous number associated with that is 11-11-11 i think.

on the 11th hour

of the 11th month

You should really make an effort to read some of the threads before posting.

This is a plausable idea, but it has already been suggeasted, dissected and tested, to no success.

Also, what about the numbers in the filenames? They clearly have a purpose, since the only one that's not a number is the "Beware" comics image.

And forthe Area51, click on the link in my previous post about the images, you'll see a desert. Zoom out aliitle, and you'll start to see Area51 in the top right corner of the screen.

TeamXbox thought this as well... Interestingly it's a post that was here as well.

Regarding the sCt, that is how initials are usually written in a monogram. So could this refer to someone with the initials S.T.C.? (The capitalized last initial always goes in the middle)

For example, seeing this in a picture of a UK pub, I thought of Samuel Taylor Coleridge (poet who wrote "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" and "Kubla Khan"). I've tried a couple of these references so far to no avail, but I've hardly exhausted the options.

Plus, it could be some other S.T.C. if this is the correct path. I'm sure it would also have to tie in with clues from the other 5 pics too.

Hoping to spark some ideas...

Re: Muse.com

I am 100% convinced that our answer lies somewhere in http://www.muse.com. There are 6 pieces (who, what, when, where, why and how) to the pzl.htm on the site. It refers to next generation consoles. It mentions that they went dormant in April of 2000. I think the answer has to lie in the site somewhere.


This sounds more like what Nintendo's Revolution would do, but still, nice lead.

*reads next post* Maybe.

not to get too off topic but

just to put this one to rest http://www.xydexx.com/ was OOG in ilovebees he just changed a page he already had so it would trip google searches related to ilovebees.

I think he is once again just seeking hits

EDIT: also take xydexx for a ride on the way back machine. this is OOG
