Another small update from Hana:

You've all been incredible today. We've really thrown Brian and Kelly into a tailspin. Make sure to look at the new videos I posted and to come back tomorrow at 9am for day two of the voting tests.

WATCH VIDEO CONFERENCE - SEE WHO WE'RE UP AGAINST
The video is the second part to the first Video Conference video. Very interesting.

the game is over for today, it says day 2 will start again.
Judging from the video, looks lilke we're making a dent, but I don't think it will be completely out of the realm of possibility to expect different puzzles and challenges all week long until the final video conference at the end of the week.

Hey, guys. I feel bad. I can never stick with an ARG for long.
Once the show went into its recess, I haven't even considered the game. I got the texts and emails, sure... but something in me just didn't care. Of course, now that it's coming back next week, I want to get back into it. There's no way, though. Looking around here just gets me lost. Shameful, I know.

What time zone are they talking about when they say 9am?
And futhermore, can anyone translate that into GMT + 1 for me? I'm terrible when it comes to timezones.

easy way to play the game instead of using the mouse, you can just hit the tab key then enter over and over.
also on the new comic, last page, hana sends out her "call to arms" to her friends,aka US. i didnt see my name on there but there are alot of names
if i find my name in there im gonna jump up and down shouting YATTA!!
all day long.

I was wondering the same thing. I suppose that it's Pacific Standard Time. I thought it would be EST, but i guess not.
Oh, and i think GMT +1 is Western European Summer Time.

WATCH FIRST
Welcome to day two.
You all did a tremendous job yesterday, and we're off to a great start.
I've already pulled this morning's video conference stream and opened the portal. Kelly and Brian think they have us beat, but they're going to be in for a surprise today, aren't they?
Right now, you have everything you need to start cleaning today's votes, so I won't keep you.
But come back later. There should be additional videos at the end of today's test.

There's a really funny inside joke in that conference that makes fun of the low budget-ness of the video.

I got 27. It seems faster today, but then again, I'm also trying this on my computer at work and not my old laptop at home.
Anyone here notice their name in the latest comic?

Damnit. I went looking for the Injoke as soon as you mentioned it and as usual I missed it. Heh. Didn't help that my flash player kept trying to play the video in a stupidly low resolution. Pixels are ugly when blurred.
Still, cute way to "clean" the votes. Done in Hana Vision.

Oh. well, the joke was when the one guy comments on how they "look terrible" and wonders if they slept in their clothes. It's a inside joke because the events of that video is supposed to have happens 24 hours after the first two videos, but they are still wearing the same clothes because of the B-film quailty of this ARG. I thought it was quite amusing.

And here I thought it was because they'd been up all night working on the code...

Hmm. Yeah. That's not an injoke. Allnighters can have that effect, especially if you've been up all night trying to fix a problem, so that's less a B movie joke and more a decent stab at reality.
Also, Is anyone else getting a "I'm sorry this video is not available from your location" Error on the newest video?

Yep. I was going to mention that...maybe they're trying to knock off the players from areas outside the U.S.

for those that can't see the new movie...
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The election monitor is getting ready to validate the test when Hana pops up on the screen and tells him that, if she got in, then the election is not as secure as he thinks. She then proceeds to tip him about the election rigging. When she gets off Linderman's coders get on. He tells them about Hana and they give him some BS excuse. When in private once more, they express their concerns about his suspiscions...

Thanks. Now I want to actually see the video because of that spoiler. Heh.
I wish I knew why they did that locational crap. People outside of the states want to participate to, cutting them off is just stupid. *sigh* whatever.
Has anyone mirrored the videos?
