The production values in all this are unbeliavable. Amazing video! I didn't pause or screencap but I thing the Delphi thing (the words) appeared again. I wonder what tomorrow will bring!

most of the hidden frames we've seen before, but I captured a few different ones, or variants of previous ones (off the top of my head)...

The production values are superb.
In this case, the quality of the meta site gives me confidence that this game is worth participating in. It is setting a standard that many grassroots games are going to struggle to attain.

Very true, but then again, this is far from a grassroots game. It has major corporate sponsorship behind it & a team known for outstanding work.

Wow, now that is really great production!
[META]It's perhaps silly or childisch, but after the trailer asks "Are you in?" I'm glad to answer "Yeah" [/META]

I nabbed the FLV from the cache and imported it into Flash 8 to view it frame by frame. Then screen cap and crop in Corel.

question about the meta site has anyone figured out why Adriane and Diego are linked but none of the others? It seems kind of strange to me that they are the only two linked.

There are pictures of the others, they just don't have thread linking them yet. You have to slide around and discover them on your own.

(I always come in to these things late )
I agree with everybody in saying the quality is superb. Most definitely going to be participating in this because it'll totally be worth it. I can just tell.

Trailer 3 is up. Starting to wonder if humans are going to be used to create the walls of a labyrinth.

These are the labels on the bars I could make out behind Eli...

NED / 675 / 8.12
USA / 676 / 8.14
GER / 677 / 8.??
Nothing special in hidden frames I could find that we haven't seen before - except what looks like a few more whole-world earth continent pics near the end... uploading caps to flickr right now
ETA: clips are now up
looks like the locations being shown near the end are following a theme... or themes... either way, they're all close in some way to cities we know of.

London, UK -- 671 -- October 31, 1908
Stockholm, Sweden -- 672 -- July 27, 1912
1916 CANCELED (It might be a good idea to find out when and where these Olympics would have been held.)
Antwerp, Belgium -- 674 -- September 12, 1920
Paris, France -- 674 -- July 27, 1924
Amsterdam, The Netherlands -- 675 -- August 12, 1928
