 		12 hours left... long night of sleep, to wake up to the deadline... I wonder if their server will be up to the task of serving the astronomic amount of refreshes and hits the site will be getting around noon eastern... Confused

 		Eh? The time is done on mine. Nothing has happened in the two and a half hours since the timer hit zero.

I live in Switzerland and we hit noon in about 4 hours but I think it's going to be really interesting when North America hits noon.

 		We've not yet hit 0... if I read the timer correctly (the tree is giving me trouble) we (meaning North America, specifically the PST time zone) still have approximately 12 hours to go.

 		remember, it's based on your computer's time, so nothing will happen until noon of the day in the timezone where the action takes place... typically, it'll likely be noon either EST or PST, if it's a north american thing that's happening. So eg, for me, if it's noon PST, nothing will happen until 3pm my time, even though the counter has ended.

I knew that and I hoped that there will be downloads or a real launchlist on the site when in every timezone the countdown hits 0 Smile

I want a list so I can order the games!

Well since the press release stated that Origen has something to do with Europe I would imagine that the "base" time zone would be GMT if anything. Just guessing here though.

 		The timer might be off, but the site updated for me the same time it did for our UK brethren.

First, the rabbit moved to join his buddy on the left and a pair of apples disappeared.

The tree then sprouted a fair number of flags which you could click on.

Then, the little bunny did his hamster wheel thing while the site loaded.

After a goodly wait, two bunnies appeared who started talking and a pair or oranges sprouted on the tree. They are clickable and lead to a test in some contest.

 		Are you sure this fruit is legal?!?!
I can't take the test yet, Either it's not updated all the way, or my schools firewall doesn't like it, I'm going to try again later.

 		kept on getting the message "Looks like the servers are playing up. Please try again." and sighed a big ourcolony shaped sigh
however managed to enter the compo Smile
Theres two rabbit holes, one taking you to a number of trees which are links to external xbox sites, for each country (europe only)
the other hole, entitled "what is origen" goes to a page with speaking bunnies and plays a movie showing something like Rio or some south american country, and a few clues? I dunno. Then theres a link to the competition there too.
