What about the German site!!!
They list all the letters now!
Someone who can speak German, try it.

I'm not sure if you would get the pod, anyways, find out what happens.

One of the pods only had 2 letters.

I tried for a long time myself, google translator isn't the best for anagrams...


A side note, some of the new pod 7 pictures are 3D.


There's only one Pod 1, so I think the contest is over. Probably the German contest opened simultaneously, and whoever guessed first in either language was the winner. The winner in this case just happened to be an English-speaker.

On an unrelated note, I wonder if they will eventually offer POD kits for the rest of us to buy? And thanks for the next letter. I'm wonder if perhaps that is all we were meant to get and the next video will reveal the rest of the message? After all, the message says "greetings earth friends. minifigs around your world are ready and waiting to" makes me wonder what they are ready and waiting to do.

I wouldn't be so sure that there is only one pod. Because they make those analysis videos and it seems kind of far fetched that they would have the person ship it back. Of course, I doubt they would give out more than one.
Who was the first Minifig the decoded message, get the 1st Spacecraft or more!
(Google translator from the front German page.)
It could just be an error though.

That would be my doing. Cool I made them with a program called AnaMaker.

I'm German and I tried to find the solution, because I wanted to see the German video too. But despite knowing the English solution, I couldn't come up with something reasonable.
It also doesn't help that there is a 'Ä' in the letter-pool. That's a problem for the anagram-machines I know.
If I am able to find the right words I let you know.

Hurrah! I found the right words!

MACH MIT. RETTE DIE KREATIVITÄT

It means "Join in (or Take part). Save the creativity"

If someone bothers to translate the brick-speak I'll translate it for you to English.

edit: Oh wait! Just watched the video and it's in English too!
Boo to those lazy Lego guys! Wink

Cool! I was thinking of doing some 3D things, especially with all the new LEGO stuff with 3D glasses. I would make sure you are doing it right though, they seem backwards. I have to turn my glasses upside down to view them correctly.

Cool! Crackers5 and I were close to getting it, 3 letters off, but it probably wouldn't have worked anyways, because it says invalid for me even when I enter the right one, but if I substitute a regular A for the Ä, it works. I think this is because for the Ä I have to copy it in, instead of typing it. If I try to copy other letters, it also says it is invalid.
But you didn't get anything special?

Out of curiosity, has anyone taken the POD ID numbers/letters and seen if there might be some kind of code?

Bradford Rant sent out an email I think to everyone who contacted them.

Quote:
Dear Friends of the B.R.I.C.K.
Today we entered the main code string into our laboratory super computer. The results were surprising (and a little destructive). In short, our super computer blew up. We are currently analysing what is left of the mainframe to find out what entering the code string has produced. A video of this event will be posted on the site, hopefully on Monday the 18th. In the meantime we have another pod analysis video to post and with any luck will have that for you tomorrow.
Whoever said science wasn't thrilling obviously never worked for the Bradford Rant Institute.
Thanks for your support!

Edit: And the I in the code string of the second pod, it looks like it might also be a lower case l.
