This assumes that the content behind the countdown is automated and not relying on some poor bod that has to press the 'release uber content' button at the right time. In which case they will have nodded off, miss the button and then it'll be later (thus speaks experience of one or two ARG countdowns) or slump forward and hit the mouse with their forehead, in which case it might be now.


I'm sure we'll be waiting on some schmuck , poor bastard , kind gentleman/gentlewoman at the Bad Robot ARG cave to push some button. We've picked everything clean and there is no current content.

 		I just hope, the Gentlemen from Bad Robot don't need to push a button every 108 minutes Laughing

But on the other hand... they should do it! Otherwise the magnetic and radioactive activities - i.e. we - will produce another incident in our inpatience! Smile

div.afterthedeadline-button

div.afterthedeadline-button.afterthedeadline-focus, div.afterthedeadline-button.afterthedeadline-hover, div.afterthedeadline-button:hover

div.afterthedeadline-button.afterthedeadline-done

Each are followed by what appears to be encrypted information

From the javaScript file (titled dl11.js)
Code:
   function callDomLoadFunctions() {
      if (isDomLoaded) { return; }
      try { // test if we can really add/remove elements to/from the DOM; we don't want to fire it too early
         var t = doc.getElementsByTagName("body")[0].appendChild(createElement("span"));
         t.parentNode.removeChild(t);
      }

Admittedly, I'm not the best with coding, but the above seems to indicate that the content will be created/appended/uploaded/unlocked all on its own once the deadline is actually reached.

I still say that nothing will happen until the deadline though.


Oh, I'm so sorry to have upset you.

I'm on a mac, and the print window was part of the graphics on the website

Hmm, I just got the fear that what will happen will be the start of another countdown. We do have about 12 months to fill, ya know. Lord knows the Cloverfield ARG moved at a glacial pace at times.

 		were down to around 7000 bytes left, so it does seem that it will end around 11pm as predicted. Now what will happen IS the million dollar question. I so hope that it isnt too anticlimactic. At least we dont have too much longer to wait. Just hope its more than that message about not posting publicly.

 		It should currently be at around 127,500 on number 19. We still have number 20 to go.
