Guys Everything seems to be getting updates, blogs, the aquapolis flash movie is a lot bigger than the original file size of 644kb.
Also the image at the aquapolis has changed. Looks like somehting has happened.
Anyone checked the incident logs???



{newbie's first post coming up - go easy Wink I've been following this whole ARG for a while now... finally decided to post.}

That's a pretty significant file size change... There's either something we're missing, or the Aquapolis construction cam video now takes up a lot more space for some reason. I don't know a whole heck of a lot about flash, but the first version of the movie was basically the same, but now it's "rolling" vertically. Could that possibly result in the larger file size? For example, compressed video with very little motion can look good at a lower bitrate - perhaps in order to compensate for the new motion of the new version of the video they had to up the bitrate to maintain quality. Even if so, an extra megabyte plus? I guess it's a possibility.

Either way, there's got to be something important about that construction cam, or at least the construction status "page". Why else would it now be scrolling instead of stationary?

 		It might be a lot easier to discuss the flash and other Aquapolis-related stuff in one of the existing threads (I suggest this one). The reason, imho, is because that's where it was first noticed that the webcam went "live", and that then it was not moving/scrolling - so you have some timeframe references, and, also, other comments that might spark ideas/solutions. It's as if they are drawing our attention to that flash - and we haven't done anything about it yet. So, given that both bakntime's and catherwood's posts contain significant information that might turn out particularly useful there, I think that's where it should be moved, plz.
