We need an Emergency Wiki!!!! I found a site called seedwiki.com that offers free wikis... just sign up and make one. Maybe this could cover us for tomorrow, until netninja is back up.

The wiki is back on it's feet... The Wiki is slow, but seems to be working for me.
Anyone else try it recently?
Still, who knows if can handle an update?

Admittedly, I haven't checked ilovebees.com for a few days now. But the Axon coordinate page is different now. Each coordinate has a time associated with it.

Original poster was correct. Coords now each have an unique time, starting at 6:00AM PST and increasing in four-minute increments throughout the list.

No need to lock a post because of two postings. Especially when the first one predates the one you linked too.

Does the fact that Updates seem to be every Tuesday seem to conclude that this is in fact done by the same people who did the Beast?
Or does it just mean they don't like working on Mondays?

Obi, people have speculated on that subject, but of course, we won't know till it's all over... But I think as a model, it works... we assume they work a standard workweek (Mon-Friday) and with site updates on Tuesdays and interaction updates on Fridays, there's ample time for everyone to work on it during the week BEFORE the change takes effect! This way, something worked on site-wise the week previous can be tested in-house on Monday, before going to the game on Tuesday. Same thing with Dana/Princess interaction. Since that's typically been happening on Fridays (lately at least), one would assume that's based on our reactions to the tuesday updates. (Once again, giving them a day to playtest their response, and then post the following day.) So even if not a mark of "The Beast" it's a good working ARG business model!
