And for that matter, why 336 hours?


hm. It's a fortnight. If that triggers any thoughts.


Isn't a fortnight 20 days (aka 480 hours)? 336 is two weeks. 14 days.

I've always thought a fortnight was 2 weeks.

Tina Gray responds

I just received this email from Tina Gray...

I really don't know what all the fuss is about . . . "1990
- 2003". I know this is what Tyra was looking for, so you
are correct, but she obviously underestimated the ability
level of her L4 participants . . . or did you get help?

All I can say to our respected enquiring contestants, even
if very extensive planning has achieved success . . .
exercise forethought. It's very evident, from ongoing
responses, winners are rarely deterred. Perhaps, honestly
or not, even newly utilized methods bestow extraordinary
rewards. What has engaged, really engaged you? . . .
Order? . . . Unusually cryptic answers? . . . Nothing?
But email recipients everywhere answered correctly! How?
. . . Excellent deductions, from what I can gather. Keep
up the good work.

Before going on, and I must, let me say "congratulations"
to you on behalf of Elle Broderick. To see if you made
the top 10, go ahead . . . by all means revisit
virtuquest.com and peruse the revised "board of
leaders."

Additionally, in Tyra's absence, allow me to extend to you
a new and unusual offer. But then again . . . I guess we
just did. Good Luck, Tina Gray


I checked and the "board of leaders" has been updated.

Something I discovered...

After careful review of the message above...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
In Tina's message, if you take the first letter of each word beginning with the words "to our respected enquiring " through "excellent deductions" you'll discover a hidden message


There may be more to it, but this is what I have figured out so far...

I think I figured this one out because I play WAY too much ACROPHOBIA on Uproar.com

Which means this is becoming a immersive game and expect real world contact?
