 		The bit at the end as far as I see it is a clip from what should have been earlier in the night or just at the beginning of the party, I highly doubt (although he might have) gone back into the building to have a beer.


Also on a side note of the camera thing, I am not sure this has been covered as there is so much thats been covered in the numerous posts around this topic. AND this might be the wrong thread to put it in.

The camera is never actually dropped.
The person holding the camera is knocked over/falls over during the mad rush off the roof. Since it is rob best mate (main dude, whatever) Rob goes back up the stairs to rescue/help his mate and stop him being trampled to death.
Rob's back can be quite clearly seen in the shot after helping the guy up running back down the stairs, and this is why rob is not the one holding the camera, its not because he gave it back to someone, the guy who had it never lost it.

The urchinTracker() variable will be unique to each website, not the website owner. Let's say Paramount wanted to track traffic to dozens of different movie websites -- they need a unique account number for each one. Otherwise the stats would all go into one bucket, and the data would be worthless.

(edit to add)
I'm used to WebTrends. Now that people mention it, what stops someone from creating a fan site and putting that code on their own page? They could! But it won't skew the data for the real site, because the traffic will be identified by the website's IP address. Google Analytics thinks of everything!

Sorry, I use mint. I'm not quite that used to Urchin / Google Analytics, though now that you say that, I feel like an idiot for not realizing that.

Good call! But even with Babelfish, there seems to be absolutely nothing there. Unless you count yet another google-analytics urchin script.

 		Just a reminder, the game may not even have started yet, Look at how a clue to a Sector 7 Password was found earlier, remember that apparently a member of the S7 Webteam is in this one.

I agree, we should be looking for something WAY off in a rather common surrounding, not something a liiiittle bit off in an unlikely surrounding.
I have no idea as to exactly how we should do that, tho Smile

 		Just her Hair...
I'm pretty sure this has been talked about, but just to help clear the sea of misinformation here- I'm pretty sure what appears between the girls on 1-18-08.com is just light shining through the left girl's hair. If you increase the brightness and contrast a little, you can see it continue all the way to the bottom of the image. Humans have this uncanny ability to look for faces in everything they see, and I think this is another instance of that.

yeah chubby i just posted that up there :p i just noticed it, i knew i seen it before. Confused

same phone numbers but different area codes it looks like Confused Confused Confused


I'd suggest that the sites are a bit of a lark. The phone number, sans area code is instantly recognizeable to anyone who listened to the radio or watched MTV in the 1980s.

Then again, if you call the numbers and someone named Jenny answers, you've probably solved another mystery altogether! Very Happy

 		This has been shown before, but I think that it is one girl, not two.

Look at the eyebrows they are different, if you watch the trailer you see them standing next to each other when they get to the street.

Well then I suggest anyone that is in or near NYC go to 401 broadway and have a look around. I happened to be in that area last night, but it was dark and hot and I was tired as hell and I didn't have a good camera with me.

(The only thing I saw was on my way back to the highway, a Sprite Billboard with the URL that was used in The Lost Experience.

http://www.sublymonal.com )


There might also be a clue at or near the Statue of Liberty, it was kinda thrown in our faces.

 		The sign on the fridge says "Your Life Has Meaning." I googled this phrase and the first response was http://tinyurl.com/28vr3j Look at the bottom right hand corner of the pic. It is the EXACT same font style and everything as the "Your Life Has Meaning" on the fridge. The artist said it is related to "el dia de la ira" which is Spanish for "The Day of the Wrath." It's a phrase found often in the Spanish translation of Revelations.

Part of it actually was thrown in our faces. Wink
