Okay Since I didn't play "Chasing the Wish" (wasn't around for it, sorry), is there a meaning behind the words on the preview for the comic book?
The whole "My web-site can help you see! Send Send." made me ask that question.

That was from the original email Dale sent at the start of the game in February 2003. It was our rabbithole.

So what is with the "48" at the bottom of the question mark on the "mystery" page?

Been looking at that '48' for a couple days now... went to thewishcomic.com after greywethers was solved and found it... google does nothing, of course and I can't find anything else to go on.

the "48" was added on Feb 1st. enaxor and i are spec'ing that that it might mean April 8th or 48 days from Feb 1st which would mean Mar 20/21...

Synthasia site updated again with another logo and the text: "Synthasia Website Relaunching April 2006"
Looks like we're getting close!

Is that really an IG-site? This is what I got from it:

Synthasia has a new Logo on the front. 2 Chinese looking Dragons.
And on the Comic site, the Creators page has another website listed in the bio blurb for James Curcio .
Which has loads of ARgish goodness in it.
Looks like this game will be all about Dale trying to remember what happened in the last game!
Mods & Admins ... Can we please please, move this thread to "Game with Potential" so we can start threads for e-mail contacts and such!

I see a page with the title "In Transition" and pixelated image of trees on a red background. I don't see any text (unless you count the "o").

Yes anonymousfame.com is an in-game site, or at least it was for the first game. Not really sure if it will be used this time around.

Spring/fall equinox. Today....
Is it just me or is there a small chunk missing from the red dot of the question mark, next to the lower part of the 8. It almost looks like a nose and if you squint just right maybe a head attached to it. I feel that there may be a second image hidden in the graphic, now I need to go find a program that will let me look for it.
I didn't see any message when opening the jpg in notepad. Nothing that jumped out and bit me anyway.
Has anyone used jpeg hide/seek or steg detect on it yet?
Edit...
Camouflage doesn't see anything hidden without a password. Note: tried "rabbithole," "test," "sample," "themystery," "theMystery," "48."
Currently downloading JpHide/JpSeek...
Edit... just checked my spam box on hotmail and discovered that my e-mail to Dale had bounced.

Hi Dale saw the comic at http://www.thewishcomic.com/ and I am really looking forward to seeing more. Has Meghan said anything about remembering the amusement park like she did for the slide puzzle?
Looking forward to reading more,
Steffeny
