 		Well, Mr. X, what I think they meant by waiting, was for the Main site to be released.

But I do agree I think we have to wait for Pedro Guzmam to come back. Well, that is what his email said at least.

oh gosh.. they need to hurry up and open domino 7 site.... if they wait too long we'll have a complete game guide with decompiled flash files.... no telling what else we'll do when we get bored while we wait... and wait... and wait...
tic toc is also used in one of the old commercials I watched - I think the Olympic swimmer one - and the swimmer is in a picture on the wall.

yes, still waiting, waiting, waiting. If this were a friday, I would pour me a guinness while i wait.

 		Wow, Palm. That's some deductive reasoning. I'll send Fausto an email and let you know if that turns up anything.

Hola Fausto,

Vi tu nombre en la página arpatallerdeautos.com

Estoy buscando para un juego de "dominó del oro de Guinness" y pense que quizas seas una parte de la adivinanza. Si no eres, siento haberte molestado.

Gracias,


I told him I was looking for the golden domino in the Guinness game and his name was on the auto site. I wondered if he was a part of the puzzle, and if not, I apologised for bothering him.

At this time we can try anything I guess - I just sent off an e-mail to the car/rag website

"hello there,
I am looking for Mr. Guzmam, who has been travelling to see the mayor, juan ramon. He is missing, and I have been searching everywhere - I thought it might be possible he got stuck with a flat tire and is stuck waiting, waiting, waiting, at your shop. I know that good things happen to those that wait, but we are worried. Can you let me know if he is there getting his tire fixed? Thanks.
Palm"

Will see if we get anything back.

 		Domino 8
clues
"Good things come to those who wait" - This is simply the Guinness slogan. They have this in every advert and bill board. I would not take it as an instruction to wait before you can solve the 8th Domino.

I am thinking that to solve the flash game on the carniceria Guzmam web site, it has to do with the order of the meets? Maybe we have to click on each of the meets in a certain order? Ham was first on the chalk board. (Gasping at straws here maybe)

You don't think there is a camoflauge in this photo do you?

That's a really good idea - nothing happened with the scales until you did a certain order, and it looks like the music will have to be in a certain order, why not the meats?

I really dont think we are supposed to do that. Once again, this is not a flash site. And the pictures on there are just that pictures. .jpg's No info is held on them. So the site cannot register if we are clicking or not. Good idea though

 		I might not be the best at decoding source code, but it seems to me the carnicería site is lacking flash. To me that means it's unlikely to do anything no matter what we click but I could very well be wrong.

Yes, it wasn't a good idea - playing with it came across a bad site - I wonder if the developers realize it -

I noticed on each of the meat websites, the "home" link had an "alt" tag.
each tag seems a little different. Went to the website on the "alt" tag of the "home" link on the piernas page and it is a porno site - so don't click on it.
Edited: took off the address here in case someone is underaged.

 		Advertisement First - Game Second
MR X
Like Mr X, I also have been following this promotion from the interest in advertising perspective and it is obvious the marketers creating this game had no idea there are such clever souls who embrace this such as all of you.

I think they want to make sure and get the most bang for their buck with this. If they didn't slow you down, it would be solved by now.

I don't think this was intended to be a week long endeavor and they need to rein all of you in so that the casual fan can enjoy the chase before it is solved.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I hate "waiting" with ARG's (because there is the possibility it CAN be solved) but I think he is right, and just for that reason.
