Just in case it makes any difference, I thought I'd note that there are 17 open spaces; and the text "but still isnt never the tomorrow of now" minus "never now l" is also 17 characters. Possible have to use the letters from the sentence to fill in the blanks and make a new sentence?

I think that the letters that we need are the letters that are intersected. There are sixteen of those which would leave one left, but when the text fades into the puzzle, for a moment there is an R that dissapears when the puzzle fully appears, if you take the R as one of the letters, it gives you the correct amount...I've tried to fit those letters into the puzzle a few times, but i never could find the answer.

I am not sure if this was added recently, but there is text at the bottom that reads:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Feeling Cross? Don't let it get you Down.
I'll give you a hint:

Think about what it's like
When you open your presents -
All that matters
Is what's inside the box.

The whole last section of this seems to be about time. The quotes on the previous page are about timing. The flash is talking about different tense present and future. The hint has a '-' at the end of presents which does not need to be there.

I have been trying everything I can think of about time time, timing, and tense but cant come up with anything workable. I dont know if i am on the right train of thought

if only the stuff in the box is important than we have the words never and now which are the 4th and 7th words to appear in the second animation. the letter R is in the box when it first appears and then is hidden behind the other letters and the letter L is also in the boxes. R and L are both the intersecting letters of the words far and closer from the first animation which are also the 4th and 7th words to appear.

Maybe I gave too much blood today and I could be wrong and this could have nothing to do with anything, but maybe someone can make something of this info.

Just had another message from A Savior:

Quote:
Time to get cracking
The clock is ticking
Did I underestimate you?
Or can you truly offer your help?
Perhaps it is only fair that I offer help to you then.
So be it.
But hurry up
Before time runs out

-A Savior


Looks like you might be right about it being to do with time, Darktide.

Hitting Ctrl-A revealed this

Quote:
Across:
1. Q's "For"
2. Wreck havoc on (devastate or desecrate)
3. ????
4. ????
5. ?????


Down:
1. "Is Enough" for Ladies
2.Mutiple conics (Ovals?)
3. ?????


items in paratheses are my guesses

Here's a solution, however, that doesn't say much because a number of words could have fit into the grid...

Interesting, but does that really give us anything?

I got the email too, btw.

Just thinking out loud - all that matters is what's in the box, so either it's the now & never that matter or it's everything else besides the Now, Never & the L that are given to us in the box. If the latter is the case, We can be sure of VASA???

Hopefully this can spark someone else, because my flash fizzles here

Well, I will say that for the three "unknown" letters inside the box, at least the t and i seem plausible. If you rearrange the letters in the box, (assuming a t and i) you get 'salvation' with 'wever' left over plus one more letter...

weaver, review, swerve, viewer?

ok, i may be way way off target with this one, and it may be a coincidence, but here goes

i was looking at the clues, and the only real words we have clues for are ovals and devastate. so i google search for pages including both these words. The only thing i come up with is this

http://www.universalbuzz.com/phpbb2/posting.php?mode=quote&p=544851&sid=0efa04981fa3ec66f59cb8677d96b617

i am not really sure what this page is, but it has devastate ovals Euclidean

i dont know what the hell that means, but i try searching for Euclidean Time, since this whole thing seems to revolve around time so far.

I guess it turns out that this Euclidean dude had some theories pertaining to time theorems and stuff...

Not sure if this is leading anywhere, but figured i would post it.

EDIT: Don't mind the above, i must be on crack with that self fulfilling crap i found.

It has to have something to do with an egg timer.

Only what is in the box matter. Never, waist(not sure if we have the right word) and ovals...

then there is the second hint about, lets get crackin

Yeah, I got that email too - I hope whatever he's saving us from wasn't important Wink .

There's a couple more hidden crossword clues on the tomorrow page. It now reads:

Quote:
Across:
1. Q's "For"
2. Wreck havoc on
3. ????
4. ????
5. Lohan's album opener


Down:
1. "Is Enough" for Ladies
2.Mutiple conics
3. Did not exist


I'd hoped that saviours would have better taste in music too.
