Axon on Sunday at the same time as a bunch of other people's Axons? . .
And by the way, does the US switch their clocks back when we do? I can never remember.
Yes they changed back today as well.
EDIT: Note to self: check very next post to see if question already answered.

So can I take it no-one else wants to get today's axon?
I really don't want to shlep into central London on Sunday train schedules.
On the other hand with no crew calls and simultaneous calling the first group will probably be the hardest to get hot, and I don't want to stay home just to see it go 3/4. Plus I wouldn't mind hearing what composite Mellissa sounds like.

I will get the Oxford axon.

I'm also so not willing to go in to London either, but. . .it's our last axon . . . so kinda torn.
But dude, it's dark out there and because of works at Wembley Park the Met line isn't running on weekends.

I think I'm going to pass on it. We've got the magnificent bcriswell holding up the British end, and I can't justify the 2 hours this would take with one train/hour through Charring X.
I'm really hoping this is just standard axon hottening. It seems like the PMs have weighted it in our favor to get them all today anyway.
I'll watch events from my laptop like I did before London went live. I think we've done enough to show that the UK is a valid spot for the next ARG this lot work on anyway. Has anywhere else put so mutch effort into a single axon? I think not.

I'm going to have to say ditto on this, though with regret. I forgot that the regular tube lines wouldn't be running today, so at this point I won't be able to make it on time.
Give them hell, bcriswell.
[edit]And if you need any passphrase info, I'd be happy to return last week's favour. [/edit]

And as the UK involvement in this draws to a close, we've finally got the_labyrinth. Subject 5 is up on humpty dumpty if anyone wants to take a look.

So it's the same axon as last time going hot on Thursday? And did we find the exact location of it?

Yes it is. It's the same Dean Street phone as the original axon. There's maps at the start of the thread.
It's 19:25 on Thursday. After crying off Sunday I'll certainly be getting this. I wonder if It will simply be a matter of lifting the reciever again.

Wow, that's a pretty nice time. I hope to try and make it. I'll let one of the more senior ARGers there answer it first though.

Wait. . oh bugger, another one?!

This is the last one, right? Promise?

Being in the first group, I sincerely hope so.

Count yourself lucky. I'll be stuck in central London for an extra hour. Thank god Borders lets you read their books for nothing.
If there is a question this time out would you mind texting one of us? I'll PM you my number.
Good luck with the Oxford Axon.
