Seriously!!!?!!? A comma?!?
I tried this earlier along with alot of other people probably....a comma!!??!? Seriously? I was enjoying this but it's getting a bit too far fetched now adding random punctuation on the end.
Anyway, well done all

Don't forget none of us have been emailed yet, I just hope it doesn't mean there's more of this shit to come.

I just don't know how to feel about this... I lurked since /eridu got discovered and even posted some (unproductive) posts, but i didn't expect that the solution will be this unrewarding (apart from two nice pics) Good job everyone! I hope this won't be all...

painful! Very Painful! What is concerning me (and I am sure it does you) is that both of these pages are dead ends.
So we will receive a twitter, viral or email next? Possible clue to another URL extension which will no doubt lead to another image? Blah, its not much fun when there not giving you anything. Id of preferred it if there was a portal to the main site which you could navigate. Maybe get a bit more info on prometheus project and then wait for the next installation for us to hack or mill over for hours using the gifts the good old internet provide.
It does leave a slightly bitter taste in my mouth thats for sure.

There's a possible explanation to the inclusion of the comma - Wikipedia...
The wiki article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_Call has the code as "DDM > BM > AM > ESM > DDM > BM > AM > ESM > DDM > BM > AM > ESM > PP," (where > = arrows). Looks to me like they've copied from Wikipedia and removed the arrows and spaces.

I'm really hoping this isn't a sign for what the movie will be, CuriousCat87... I'm too invested at this point.

Aah right I forgot! Can't believe I forgot who we were dealing here, the grand master of mysterious beginnings, entertaining middles and totally disappointing endings!
Silly me...

actually the wikipedia article where the comma was lifted from was lifted from the scientific pdf discussion found here on page 38 http://uavarese6.altervista.org/Interstellar_Messages.pdf , (<-comma) which i've looked over a few times. didn't find anything conclusive or compelling then.

I think I know what the problem is. This ARG is being handled by another company (Ignition Interactive) and not FOX nor any producing company associated to Lindelof/Scott, which means they were handed a small bit of information regarding the plot of this film, and a lot of promo material to keep the fans interested. It's somewhat unrewarding, but I'd say it's not their fault.

I hope they'll follow a bit in Tron's footsteps. A facehugger pin would look so awesome next to my arcade aid pins. Bit of a bummer to know that they're more of a promo firm.

just... wow.
Amazing work - I kind of like this new pic, it shows that the temple in the movie is essentially the rejected HR Giger Dune design.
