The 1916 Olympics would have been in Berlin, but, well, WW I..

Hey, I don't see a third trailer when I go to the site...

Refresh didn't work. Then I decided to try clearing the cache and it did.

Thanx!

All right, so, I was re-watching the trailers with my head tilted to the side(because that's how I roll) and I caught a flash of this below picture in between the two ARE YOU IN?s at the end. Specifically, it's at 1.58/2.03 (and I cannot tell you how long it took me to get that bar onto 1.58, because it's embarrassing and I got very, very frustrated ).

So. Can anyone identify this place? It's in the trailer, so don't just say 'it's a random place'. It's in there for a reason. Everything has a reason (wow, I'm starting to sound like one of the options for the personality test).

Again, so. Identify? It could, perhaps, be in NY (the other flashies are in NY, I believe). It's there for a reason. Sorry for the blurriness, by the way - it's on screen for literally a second.

PS. It's in the other trailers too, I think - makes it triply important.

EDIT: I was right. Trailer I = 1.37, Trailer II = 1.42. It's there, people.

I've been watching the new trailer too, and then headed to the site, as I think I hadn't been there yet. I noticed that Ariadne's pic is connected to Eli's and Diego's pics, but not to the rest. Any idea if this means something? Maybe we haven't helped the rest of the Agon to contact each other?

[brodie]

She - or her group of pictures, anyway - is connected to Kai as well, but that's expected. I don't think it's because they're not connected - because, think about it: why, then, would Ariadne and Diego be connected?

A couple more questions.

What is THE CODE behind Eli on the wall in Trailers I + II?

Athens Thermopylae Argos
Olympia Eleusis Elis
Thebes Epidauros Tegea

Nine Greek city-states. Add in Delphi, the 'navel of the world', for a round ten - just because all of these Delphi references keep cropping up.

New question to replace that: What does THE CODE mean? What does it refer to? Why does Eli think it's important?

Who is the person we see running through the maze in Trailer I that's NOT Ariadne (I think it could be Diego)?

Note: if that person IS Diego, it would explain why Ariadne is connected to Diego and Eli - because all three of them have appeared in the trailers.

And another question: why, oh why, in Trailer III, is Eli giving a lecture on THE LOST RING? Why would he do that? He won't even tell US more about it, and we're involved!

One more thing. What do the values behind Eli in his TIII lecture mean? They seem to correspond to the Olympics, but they DON'T match the data the omphaputer has given us. Unless the values don't refer to the OMPHSTRENGTH at all? In that case, what do they refer to?

And I noticed something. In TI, when Ariadne is goggled and running through the maze (with her arms crossed over her chest, which I thought was a strange way to run - it has to mean something), she knows EXACTLY where she's going. There's no wobbling or wavering from side to side. Whereas the other person (who may or may not be Diego) is stumbling and going every which way.

Anyone else have thoughts? Anyone else thinking maybe we should devote a thread to the trailers? I can't be the only one fascinated by them.

My guess about The Code in the trailer is that it refers to the Omphalos Code, and the cities listed are cities once connected by the Omphaloi.

Would someone mind putting the trailer up on YouTube (or the wiki)? My screen locks whenever I try going to the site...I'm guessing the problem is traffic (or my broadband's too slow.) Thank you!

I wanna know what kind of fancy PowerPoint projector Eli is using.... talk about otherworldly!
