I hope it's Pacific time. Later would work better for me - so it'll probably be
Eastern this time.

It's not clear who entered the 5D & 5O update - Josh or mysterio.

if this is going to be again such a disapointment, like the last events on the serious side of this game (STIES and HLM) i will burn my astronauts certificate and send the ashes to bad robot..............

after the cloverfield experience, this game is just a real dissapointment

it started so great, pushing us into investigating, finding new clues (craiglist for eg) - in short: they just kept us active with satisfactory results through investigation

but the last weeks/months where just a passive giveaway of informations - not leading us into new steps of this game

so i just turned myself after beeing a enthusiastic player into a lurker

cloverfield has been a great arg with viral marketing function

super8 seems to be viral marketing with some arg mechanism

Yes - I hope it's not a two line, one person, no meaning chat.
I want something that leads to discovery of something else. I've been googling, and anagraming, and binary/hex translating so many different things and coming up with nothing. I even went to the library in Weirton to check the Moby Dick material there just in case someone left a clue while they were in town filming. The library didn't have any Classics Illustrated comics, so I checked the binders of the novels and again - nada.
I'm really hoping this chat at least points us in the right direction.

Has anyone figured out what 4D & 5O's last leg, 3D & 5O's last leg, and 5D & 5O's last leg means yet??

Dude, we figured those phrases out efficiently in time for each chat--they tell you on what day and what time (so far in the afternoon) to monitor the chat as a guest. The only inconsistency is the time-zone.

Edit--In lamens, log into the chat at 5:45 pm, either -5 or -8 GMT tomorrow.

Thanks, Chainsaw Fellatio! I guess I just missed that part when people figured it out. Could someone explain to me how it works? I'm guessing it has to do with Josh Minker's Calenders on his blog somehow?

05:45:00 p.m. Thursday January 27, 2011 in pacific converts to
12:45:00 p.m. Friday January 28, 2011 in Australia/Sydney

or

05:45:00 p.m. Thursday January 27, 2011 in eastern time converts to
08:45:00 a.m. Friday January 28, 2011 in Australia/Sydney

here it is in GMT

05:45:00 p.m. Thursday January 27, 2011 in pacific time converts to
01:45:00 a.m. Friday January 28, 2011 in GMT

or
05:45:00 p.m. Thursday January 27, 2011 in easten time converts to
09:45:00 p.m. Thursday January 27, 2011 in GMT

i think this is correct

Tonight's time

I'm going to try and catch this one tonight. I'm in central time so I'm guessing 4:45pm would be my time. I have yet to catch any of these conversations at the time they say they are going to happen. Should I just login now to the sties site and wait for the update?

Actually, because Daylight Savings time is in effect, I should have said -4 to -7 GMT. It can still update in roughly 40 minutes.
