My route was to turn left immediately on the start and then zigzag upwards to hit all the waypoints, took me two tries.
Also, @lapierre520: we're definitely not done here yet; we still don't know why we have a Walt Whitman poem and we still don't know what's up with the-maxwell-group.com, which in fact seems to have updated its logo last night.

Well I dunno if this is what the ARG was leading to, but if you're an XBox Live subscriber you should be excited -- if you're not (like me) you are screwed:

Well, I don't know how you are all doing that underwater waypoint game. I have an extremely fast computer and even when using the low resolution game, still cannot complete the game - it is choppy and stalls. I think I am going to have to give up.

Remember that Lost: The Game comes out in something shy of four weeks. That's another promotion entirely, I think.
(Speaking of which, I think I'm kinda excited for the Lost game. I hope it runs on Linux with WINE)

I'm waiting... impatiently...
I guess when I get to the conclusion of a game, I just feel that there should be some sort of...
conclusion. I will assume something is coming and be quiet for now.

Ok sorry, I failed to end up following this one due to time restraints but I am an avid LOST Fan... Can I just ask for someone to either confirm or deny this though. I'll spoiler tag it and would only like those who've watched the recent 4 eps of season 4 to scroll over it because it does give away a couple of things.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The man in this game... The main guy we saw @ the beginning. Is he or is he not the guy at the end of Episode 3 who parachutes onto the Island and says "Are you Jack!?" ALA The guy who is visibly upset at the beginning of Episode 4?
Thanks!

yes.
(detail from episode 4-02 in spoiler)
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
His name is Daniel Faraday. We're not sure about the chronology of the scene with him crying at the wreckage on the tv news, but he is the same parachute man who asks, "Are you Jack?"
btw, there have only been two eps of the new season aired, not counting the recap show. You may be mis-counting, because ABC re-aired the Season 3 two-hour finale the night before the season premiere.

I thinks its pretty simple the four of them where meant to have been on 815 but somehow didn't make it, but the island is bringing them there. Also I'm wondering if any of the new characters in the show have been seen on the find815 website and viceversa. Is the the guy looking for black rock on the freighter. I haven't been able to finish the game online. Is there going to be a continuation or just those 5 chapters?

Hoodlum Entertainment have run other promotions and television tie-ins in the past.
They are a real Australian company, but they have not yet created anything nearly as rich and detailed as an ARG. (Think 'find all the keywords on the website, and type them into this box')
