Do you put in the phone number with dashes or without?

I can't even get the page to load - 'server too busy' - any way to get around that?
Just got in, submitting now...

It's insanely busy... I can't seem to get through. That's probably the problem nextday.

anyone have any luck getting in yet?
i got to the submitting page and clicked submit and now it just keeps telling me server too busy
before it said a different message.
something along the lines of delinquent server or something similar
over at SHH someone already posted what happens but it's still cool to have the things happen personally.

I was too late. Not sure how much I missed it by, but I was still too late.

Ecks isn't back yet.
Getting to the locker and seeing it already open after driving way over the speed limit and valeting (which I NEVER do) just plain sucked. Oh well, at least we might get something good.
Around what time did you make it there Ecks?

I'm so excited, I got the call and I'm from Portugal! Way to go 42E! I couldn't believe they would be doing this to countries outside the US (too expensive maybe) but I'm very glad they did. So any clue what happens next? Another waiting game perhaps?
Oh, and I put my number without any dashes and it worked fine.

About 3:25ish. I'm the one who left the locker open. The person(s) who got the package closed the door, and I spent 5 minutes trying to open it. I really suck with combination locks.
I would've let you know, Sand, but my wife called while I was trying the door and had me on the phone a while.

4 :25? Wouldn't that be 3? I was there at around 3:35 and it was open. If you left it open, thanks. I had to jump just to see the number. (being vertically challenged is a bitch)
EDIT: AND I can't even get the damn ACME Security page do it's thing. I think I will be having a beer now.

Yup, 3:25, good catch. Yeah, my arm got tired trying the lock, and I'm not 'vertically challenged'.
[EDIT] I can't get it to work either; it's getting slammed.
Alcohol ... not a bad idea. Perhaps I throw a drink together when I get home.
[EDIT 2: The return of The Return]
I got it to work, finally. This great ... the whole scavenger hunt was the April Fool's joke.
