[UPDATE] The Aquapolis - 10/22

just noticed that the aquapolis flash is much larger.

The status page is updated, with the webpage working and new graphics... i'll look around and see if anything else is different

[edit] sorry... should read webCAM is working... my brain, however, is not [/edit]

Is that some sort of a hint? Fist, we can see that the "module connection tubes", which I have been referring to as "walkways" are made of glass. That means that nobody can really hide there (or run without being noticed). Also kinda limits the options of how the walkways can be "closed" - it does not, for example, seem like they can be closed mid-way.

And there is an "observation deck" on Amargos. That is the level we had questions about, though I can't really see how the fact that there is an observation deck there helps anything Confused

i dunno if i'd put too much into that, it's probably because that's what you'd kinda expect underwater (if you could do it) - so you could look out at the wonders of the deep, ect. ect.

i'm a little confused - i don't remember any questions about amargos... Delos, sure, cause that's where it keeps leaking, and maybe andros cause it's name was red in the last log...

Ah, maybe I was the only one that had questions about Amargos - it's the last level before surface. It seems that if you want to escape Aquapolis, you have to reach Amargos through the Lobby on Andros (Suraface/Portico does not [edit] seem to connect to anything else).

Don't waste your time, it looks like a loop.

status pic

On the right status pic (the observation deck) near the bottom there seems to be a human arm there. Just using the flash zoom it looks like fingers, hand, and an arm.

Yeah, it looks like a little kid pointing to the surface, with a parent or other adult next to him...

And is anyone else getting freaked out by the looping "webcam"? I keep seeing faces in there... Shocked Or maybe I'm just crazy... Whatever.

actually, the flash file got smaller.. old: 1445910 new: 1401058

Oct 20 21:43 (MST) for the update, but my earliest copy is from 3:30pm mst and I was told that someones backup from yesturday was the old one, not the new one, so the time stamps dont match up (accidental?)
or the site admins wrote it, uploaded it, and tested it, and only moved it over to make it live after 3:30pm MST..

Even if it is, you can't recognize it.

I would like to know if anyone has been paying attention to the jobs list. If there are casualties going on, more jobs might be suddenly opening up. Wink

And has anyone mentioned the fact that the "construction cam" isn't pointing at anything in particular? Does no one else think that's a little odd?

The breach obviously caused a set-back. Instead of opening in the fall, they now open in the winter of 2004.

It looks like a "K".. Turned a little bit as we are looking at it from behind.
