Yeah, the image flipped 90� CCW looks just like a little sparrow.

Got one too in yesterday's mail. I think they must be dipping a stamp in acrylic paint to make the images. Mine is blue with a litle green; bird only.

So...does anyone think there might be more to this than just a Timewaster?

Hmm. Somebody's daylight savings time hasn't adjusted - it was 7:40 AM eastern time. But the timestamp for me is showing 6:40 AM (which is 3:40 AM for you, cel).

Now if we could only figure out the connection with the lamp finial.

I got a card in the mail as well -- is there a reason we're assuming this is just a Timewaster?

I think maybe because there's been very few puzzles and just alot... ALOT... of story... and disjointed story at that.

AR does not necessarily have to have puzzles (we're just used to seeing them as the means to advance the plot in the Alternate Reality). But if no puzzles, then it isn't a Game, it's just a weird way to read a story.

However, maybe something will change once we find the right page?

I've been entirely through this, to the end, and while there were a few mini-puzzles involved with finding all the pages, once you do so it's fairly straightforward. You'll understand once you've gone through it yourself. It's definitely a timewaster, though, not an ARG.

I also conversed a bit with the author (at the WHOIS address), who seems nice; I think this is his first such effort. I asked him to keep me informed if he does more. Wink

argh! I need to give my address out more Razz

ETA: Oh my word... I did a site copy, and there are upwards of 320 html pages (and almost 300 other files), and including a few subfolders.

wow. If this was all done for the story, it's like a novel...
