What is the significance of 103? I mean I could understand 102 as its divisible by 51.

Nevermind I misread the tweet it says almost 100 so the 102 number is probably what their aiming for.


Strangely enough, I think he is looking for 100, being as he was at 97 when he tweeted that, that, and he says "almost 100"

OK, I now follow whatis, and am the 102nd follower. (Can't twitter from work computers or would have done it earlier).

What is 51? E A games, I'll bet. I suspect that they will be unveiling something really good at PAX.

i'm following on Twitter now too. you sure that's confirmed? it just says he'll know a place to get one.

is something happening tomorrow on the www.whatis51.com site? i read some people with dates and tomorrow is one of those dates...the 13th!?

if theory is correct about this "every 5th day" thing...something should happen.

Well in another tweet he said he had friends going, so I just assumed that meant the mystery company would be there.

"Phase 2" is up, although I'm unclear on how to get to it:

http://whatis51.com/phase2/index.html

...along with some rather interesting files:

^I think I got it: Move one of the largest die over to the left side of the page, so it "touches" the edge. Try to line it up horizontally with the smallest die on the left side, and that first file should come up. Clicking it brings up the other files.

yeah you have to move the dice to where the previous spot was for the 1 and the 3 (hence 13, today's date).

that's where the two dice that had the 1 and the 3 on it were...that's where you move it to pop things up.

the next dice are 1 and 8. so August 18th? phase 3? Smile

interesting...

mainly, I've just tried doing some quick googles for some of the names and such in this image (Elias A, S Folder, Max Weilder II, fourth zone tower, etc) but nothing's standing out.

'Trial and Beta' definitely seems to imply this is for a 360 game that is soon to be released, sometime next year...

Tweeting "Conference calls suck" to @whatis51 will garner a response:

Quote:
@DLIMedia some, not all. did you find my lost files? #whatis51


... I seem to be only the 2nd person that has done so.

ETA: Further exchange...

Quote:
@whatis51 Why yes, yes I did. And many others will soon find them as well. You should be more careful.


Quote:
@DLIMedia yeah they got lost and the mole figured the best place to teach me a lesson was where u found them. Wink #whatis51

so you think we're supposed to tweet that for some reason? what i took was that it was just some scribble on some paper...like doodling lol

to let those following know, they're in the game along with us...

but fudge it...i'll tweet it in case there are microsoft points involved lol (hey i'm greedy)

so anyway...any guesses on phase 3 and August 18?

these lost files are pretty cryptic yet awesome touch. he's been hinting at lost files for a while so this ties in very nicely...touche Viral City resident...touche! lol
