 		[SITE] Amanda's Blog
There didnt seem to be a thread about Amanda's blog and I wasn't sure where else this info could go. But I noticed on Amanda's blog last night that there was a new comment to her last post, that was not there before. It's from Anonymus with a bunch of 1's and 0's...Doesnt seem like carer's style since he's upfront and wouldnt have put it Anon. So, maybe its just some player messing around or something. I dont know.what does anyone else think?

 		Some tells me it's nothing.

I used a binary translator and got

El Man


It could be an obscure clue. I don't know.[/code]

El Manana


After a translation it seems that this does not mean anything... sorry

 		From the email to the carer about the binary in Amanda's blog.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Behind the scenes at Amanda's blog. Ah, that was just a little
message to you. I'm glad you found it, though I don't think you'll
find any real relevance there.

As for the little number puzzle... my. I had expected a quicker
response, given your previous records. I know you are intelligent
people. You'll get it eventually.

 		Oh man, I love Gorillaz. This game is awesome XD

Kyle's blog mentions a Gorillaz concert. I believe Gorillaz is a creation from the UK, so I'm sure the song is a message of some sort. May not be any kind of puzzle, just a statement. I don't know, that's just my 2 cents worth of [SPEC].

 		I can't seem to find any tour dates, in Manchester or whatever, in the near future for the Gorillaz. There is a Faithless show (a group Kyle mentioned in his blog) at the end of August but...

Plus, arn't the Gorillaz an animated band? How does one go on tour with cartoon characters? Shocked

So, I guess The Carer/PM just likes the band and is giving away some free hype?

 		Thecarer said that it was just a small message for us, with no relevance.

 		Gorillaz are a "virtual" animated band, fronted (obviously) by Damon Albarn (or Blur fame), HOWEVER, they have played a couple (at least one, not sure how many) live gigs. They had a large projection screen with the characters on with the band behind. This was only a one- (or two-) off, for the Brit awards I believe... So Kyle wasn't going to go and see them...

Why did no one tell me about this website? *drools*


Amanda leaves a comment saying

Oi! Careful, matey...


The two are dating and he drools over an actress.

 		Two things. The Gorillaz's song title is actually 'Maņana', isn't it? Ņ and n are different letters in the Spanish alphabet, so the difference might matter.

'El maņana' means 'tomorrow', so maybe he was just hinting at something significant happening today?

 		the only difference a squiggly n makes is that it makes it pronounced ny instead of n Smile

That's kind of spooky considering the context of today's events.
