Well, that depends on what you think it used to look like. If you think it was the letter with the word 'Receda' blacked out then you need to clear your browser cache and reload the page.

If you think it used to be the page with details of the reward money then I guess you've only just started playing - welcome to the game Smile

Yeah I noticed that too razz. Its probably nothing, but still worth investigating. Besides, these are the kind of things that lead to solves in ARGs.

[EDIT] This is nothing, just a result of using the "justify" setting. As you can see the first word on the next line is "approximately." It was too long to fit on the previous line. The justify setting is like the "center," "left," and "right" spacing settings except it spreads the text out to fill the whole column instead of moving it to one side. Its commonly used in newspapers.
