I would say it's impossible to prove a negative, but that's such a woolly statement, I hate it. But no one has posted any revelations yet.

Um... i'm kinda new to perplex city but i've found 3 things.

1. if you use the passwordyiistia as a webpage within perplex city, www.perplexcity.com/yiistia.html you get an custom error page. However if you use say, www.perplexcity.com/yiistia.htm you get a standard error page. the custome error page has a number on it and an email address. the number changes everytime the page loads. is this of any use?

2. yi istia is "the king" in an african tribal language

3. in a story i found refering to the pregame, yi istia was the password to the sygyzy cube.

Dunno if this is any help bt hey!!

any free cards r appreciated!!!!

Turns out the password is used to gain access to the Wave Three-only pre-order from Firebox on the April o6 release date - boring!

What's the title (Cold Fission) in reference to? Cold = Frost?


I think the title is a clue to the author. You got the first part....

Cold = Frost

I think the second part is...

Fission=Robert Oppenheimer

For anyone who might not know Robert Oppenheimer was "the father of the atomic bomb" and ran the Manhatten Project.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Oppenheimer

It makes me wonder if there is more meaning to the card because this is quite along way to go for a clue to such and easy thing to Google.

Yes, if you go to Violets Blog at http://www.quirkyacuity.com/ you will see a way down the page a riddle. This is where you enter the password to gain access to the limited edition wave 3 only packs. When they come out of course!

What if we put the two clues together?

Use the frost clue from Cold and Robert from fission.

Robert Frost is the poet who wrote the poem, which is named "The Road Not Taken"

This is the right answer, I just checked it

Odd

Oddly, the card on the PerplexCity site appears to have green text with only the "The password is..." bit in black. My card has all the text dark grey so it's much more subtle. 'Tis a pre-release wave 0.5 one tho.
