 		Well, that was dissapointing. It seems odd we get easy challenges now, right after that really hard 6 image challenge.

Can anyone post the magic eye pic as an attachment, the link on the team page no longer seems to work for me (since i completed the challenge)?

 		The challenges I think are the lamest part of this game. The ones we got that took a few days, were great. Why would you feed a scrap of a challenge like this to a HUGE community of hungry challenge solvers.
The best part of this game is the mystery and intrigue. It's created very well. It's just a huge dissapointment though that it is being held up by challenges that take not 5 minutes to solve.

I completely agree with your comments. There should always be an element of a race to solve challenges but if they only take minutes then the bulk of the race is spent refreshing your page intent to grab the first glimpse of the next challenge.

If THX does have a line to the PM's, this comment shoul definitely be passed on.

 		I think people should be looking for the T's in the reward pics. And who's to say it has to spell out S-I-X-T-Y? It could just stop at S-I-X for all we know.

Or if you want crazy hyper-speculation, it's a pic from Halo, so the ring-looking thing in the background is a 0, then then you have 3SIX0.

Your humble rep.


OK rep. Here's a couple of q's for you that hopefully you can answer and not break whatever secrecy they are holding you to. Please don't lie. If you can't say because of your agreement, just say so (I'll understand).

-Do you have a communication line to the PM's?
-If so, can you convey messages to the PM's?
-Should we expect anything from you, or will you just be a regular (although famous) player until all is revealed?


-First and second questions can be answered at once. No
-She gave me the first "quote" and nothing from her since. Maybe more in the future, but I really don't know.

I will post what I can to the forums, and I wil be watching when I can also.

The T is in there alright, in the challenge pic. I have them in a row at One-Stop.

I think that is going a bit far to be honest. pict is a massively common abbreviation.

There is some blindness in looking too hard.

 		see, i thought that too, but the gamem8ker has been obvious about everything so far. don't be quick to judge what is "too far". we said the same thing about the myspace pic, and what happened. everyone ended up owing me a dollar! ( Rock On once again, don't be so quick. "picy", i'm waitin for ya!

You keep saying that. Not to bring offense... but, what ARE you trying to show us? If you're refering to the gun, held by the guy, who is choking the other guy... yeah, we all go that the first time. You didn't "FIND" that... we could all see it.

So the question is... what are you attempting to show us?

Actually, I couldn't really make out very much until rip2roar brightened it, so thanks to him. No need to playa-hate.

The shot is apparently from Gears of War.

 		someone on another forum found this: http://photobucket.com/albums/y170/gamem8ker/?

Could it maybe be another sidequest?
