It was noticed in IRC that where it says 'DAYS', 'HOURS' etc etc. are actually text boxes that you can type into. On my computer, the text boxes seem to stay active until Persephone (or whoever that is) finishes her message, at which point the entire clock turns in to a link back to the IGA page.

You can all kinds of fun with this, such as:

This will show the countdown stand alone.

Although you can type in the frames, there is nothing in the code for them. For now, atleast.

Did you make sure to do the newsletter sign-in first? (clearing cache also helps) I run 1.5.0.4 also and it works for me.

edit: Forgot to mention it only worked after I signed in at the newsletter area.

tried changing my clock ahead 1 day, made the countdown cycle though numbers but didnt change the message at all.

ARGs never actually store the stuff to be revealed on the site within the actual countdown. The countdown is basically to alert you that in this amount of time, the site will be updated.

So mysterious person hacking a website with the name of a mythical god who puts a freaking cout down on the web page!?! Shiesh if it wasnt officaly form the Lost folks this would have been called a bad attempt at an ILB2 long ago.

This game better pick up, its compleatly looseing my interest.

man this is sucking more and more and the only reason i stay is cause i want arg to go mainstream.

[apcfreak]

Well, Personally, i think arg are what they are because of the "Indie-ness-isity" of it. If all my friends were into them after i was, i might consider finding a new hobby....

I don't quite understand what is making everyone so bored or frustrated here?

The game is moving pretty quickly, in my opinion. We're getting Flash updates every couple of days, more and more information. Sure the puzzles aren't all THAT difficult, but this isn't a game for the hardcore ARGer, this is a game made by ABC and it's partners intended to bring in the casual Lost fan.

Sure, there are ads in some capacity, but again, when you first went to sublymonal.com, outside of the name of the website, there was no reference to Sprite, just like on LYCGY.com.

Anyway, the information they're throwing out on the show is still pretty good in the context of the game. All of it comes across as having some good future revelations. So relax guys, we're only a month into a fourth/five month long game.
