 		Aiming
Exactly how do you aim the thing?
Over the course of several games I've randomly broekn ALL the back wall.
some of the left pillar once. Some of the right pillar once.
how do you break everything to clear the screen?

Anyone?

No real strategy on my part, I just kept tossing it until the whole wall was gone.

 		I swore at it a lot. It seemed to work for me.

 		Well, I just threw it around. Broke the whole wall in about 5 minutes. It then zooms on a pyrimid. I put my e-mail address in at the bottom, and it said "You will be told"

So I was searching google for a walkthrough type thing. Thats how I found this thread.

But the primary reason why the great pyramid is the more plausible answer is that you have the specific numbers directly referenced from sites like these:

http://www.languagesinaction.com/arabic_courses/egypt/
http://frikoo.com/extreme-engineering-15-of-mans-most-impressive-construction-projects
I wish they cited their sources.

I'll buy that for a nickel.
@natas, jelloarm>> Since I haven't played twitch games since Doom, these were pretty much my methods too, esp. the swearing.

@fish>> Haven't found anything yet. I blame it on Project Rivard and Hurts to Heal. Let's all be polite, make an effort to help the kloo1355, and tell them they have to contribute $$$ when they hit 42.

EDIT: @ Smithe You might want to... o never mind. Thanks! Smile and an email addy huh? Great! Smile

 		Ultimate Simplicity and Purely Theological
I wasn't nearly as wrong as you might have thought I was:
Quote:
The triangle is one of the most easily recognized religious symbols in the West, most commonly associated with the Christian trinity or Freemasonry. The triangle is the simplest geometric shape, and also the first purely theological symbol. To the ancient pythagoreans, the triangle was, as the first complete polygon, the womb of number and the essence of stability.

And while I am at it,
It is the essence of stability.
See above quote. These clues probably just mean a triangle in general, not a specific one.

Mysterious Disappearances Abound
For lack of a better answer for this vague and ambiguous item, I am going to have to go with the Bennington Triangle, although it's not really a triangle and there are many other areas all over the world like this place.

 		 count down
guess
at current date (1st may) after the current cycle it will take another est of 32 years to complete all the dots, i'm not sure if the pyramid on the left is going to light up one by one, or if it's just a pattern for the numbering system, your guess is as good as mine. if each one does light u after each cycle of the main pyramid then it will take more than 10 generations so it's prob just an advertising marketing scam from doritos Smile Twisted Evil Twisted Evil

 		Aiming
There seems to be an invisible square around the floating thing. Inside it my cursor is a finger, outside it is an arrow. By positioning the finger near the edge of the square seems to influence where the thing is flung.

 		Aiming
If you click and hold you can move the spinning box around and throw it where you want. I had the hardest time getting the upper middle bit. I found that if I threw it almost like I was tossing it underhanded I could hit it and it went away. Try it that way.

 		If you break the WHOLE wall, down, you can enter your email address and it says "You will be told"

hey someone said this might be a tie with with the indiana jones movie? is that just totally out of left field or what?

the exact line was "I heard it had something to do with a live indiana jones style stunt at the end of it".....from immersion unlimited...or is that just way to obvious?

 		When you break the wall down, there is a small pyramid in the background with circles ane the symbols the Mayans used for numbers. It seems llike some sort of countdown.
