[London Event] Early text? I just recieved a text message, with a code number, saying it was worth 20 points. The heading was trivia and the question asked what year it was in Perplex City.

Same here, received one 20 minutes ago.
I am not sure if they are testing the system or we have to reply. In the latter case, to who?

Uni stuff has been keeping me real busy, although I have been checking back now and then. However, even with all the work I still have to do, I'm not missing out on today's event!

maybe they have sent to one person on each team (I don't have one but I'm not going to wake up my team mates just to ask them if they have!)
It does sound like a test tho as not supposed to start 'til 1pm

I got 2 that same and they came at 12:53 and 12:55 AM!!!! I imagine we should keep the text and then get told what to go when we are there.

Just to clear this up, we were all fairly certain that they were just testing out the service, I think. Hehe.

but did they need to test it at 1am? Mr Daffydil's phone is extremely loud, and as it was charging next to my pillow it made me jump, to say the least!

I think accident would be a better word to use than test.

Confirmed...it was a mistake...which was then kinda a test, but certainly not deliberate and they are very very sorry.
Oh...and...it's 268 AC.
