 		I'm still saying 20 years= Great Pyramid.

It is believed the pyramid was built as a tomb for Fourth dynasty Egyptian pharaoh Khufu (Cheops in Greek) and constructed over a 20 year period

Haven't found # of workers though...

Dorito Quest? Dorito Quest???? And I thought Pastry Wars was silly.

Edit 2.5:

The temperature inside The Great Pyramid is at a constant 68 degrees Fahrenheit, which is exactly the same at the earths internal temperature.

 		Is the first post being updated with the correct answers? If so, I believe Natas said if first (so don't trout me Very Happy), but here is a wikipedia link for the largest (Not highest like the Great Pyramid) pyramid in the world

 		Was it the Mayans that predicted the world would end on Dec. 12th 2012? That's four years from now, which may be what the dots at the base of the larger pyramid stand for. I know it seems like it's counting toward May 12th, but maybe we're misreading that somehow...

Here is a screenshot after knocking down the wall. Only thing I could find (as mentioned earlier) was the email entry.

I look at the image today. And it has 4 red dots. three on the top left and now one on the right. ... Last night it didnt look like that.

There are 12 unlit red lights on the pyramid. This would indicate 12 more days. ...

Its wierd this only hit Unifiction yesterday. I saw this from Stumble last night. Is it possible this has been up for 4 days? and we have 16 days to figure out WTF is going on here? It would make sense. But what the heck is so important about May 12th?

Okay guys Please Read The First Post I already stated this as my original summary, there has been a lot of duplicate info because of carelessness. Please read all posts before posting information to make sure that it is in face new.

 		I haven't seen anyone make the connection yet, but in the original screen (in the room with the floating polygon) the markings on the smashable wall bear a striking resemblance to the Aquila, Cygnus, and Lyra constellation (summer triangle)

http://www.lcsd.gov.hk/CE/Museum/Space/StarShine/Stargazing/Image/Summer.jpg

can anyone get a screenshot of that page?
