WOW and notice a pattern? 3737115.jpg

maybe we need to be looking for 3's, 7's or other numbers in the reward pics?

Those "symbols" in the screenshot and other images are not new. They've been there for quite a while. I wouldn't make much of this. Not at this point, anyways.

Give it time, go take a rest, breathe some fresh air, catch a ray of two of sun (moon) light.

We'll get a new challange soon, don't worry.

How about the '19' hidden below the 'B' in the Beware image?

I don't think it was used in the last challenge.

It said a vision ... a sinful garden since before we solved it.

Maybe you should take some of your own advice Wink

Noise box around the '3'

'lo all. First post here. Jumped on the game after today's slashdot post.

Anyway... Can't help but notice the noise box surrounding the '3' in today's reward.

For those who didn't notice, here is a 4x zoom of the corner (original orientation):


I isolated the 16x16 corner and oriented to the '3' (horizontal flip) [url=http://anm.la.ca.us/yay!/3737115-inset3.png]here[/url] if it helps anyone's analysis.

Speaking of the gamem8ker's quote, I got this message...
Quote:

1463 - I am where you talk

Anybody else got the second part of the quote?

srry about that, my browser is a bit off today, and i posted that while in a different city than where i live..........


anywho, i'm just thinking, why in the world would Micro$oft put the memory card slot ON the Xbox 360???

Why not on the back of the controller's like before?

Also, on the memcard it says 64

some1 mentioned that there was a possible phone number in the filename... and then some1 posted possible area codes, the 64 is probably in the area code... i've seen all kinds of things come out of phone numbers (Like in errant memory when the phone number had a voicemail to leave ur challenges answers!)

The gamem8ker quote relates to the already solved puzzle! 1463 points to that number post in the teamxbox forum reolving the sCt monogram as the initial to the poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

As for the memory ports on the console, it's to do with the (supposed) wireless controllers. Low power wireless (eg. Bluetooth, Radio) transfers at a relatively low rate. Fine for controller commands, but too slow for transfering large memory saves. Therefore, memory slots on the console!
