All things considered, video was pretty well made.

So, what, nobody else at ARGFest care to report on this? You all hung over or something?!? GET IN HERE!!!

1. We're in conference.
2. Nothing more to report after we found the last page and wasted an hour running around Boston Commons.

Y'all are welcome to work on what thebruce posted since are stuck in conference. That's the end of the trail that had us running all over the Commons trying different things. Maybe there is something there and we missed it.

The male stripper/bodybuilder maybe? Could that be related? What was written on his chest again?

I just had a look at the video. It seems a parody of many other args... mentions of conspiracy, assassins, kidnappings, corporate cover-ups... WWII and atomic bomb explosions.. the rings in the background are similar to those behind Eli Hunt in "The Lost Ring"... the revolutionary chick reminds me of "Hacksaw", as does the ending sound effect of sirens wailing.
Very funny!

Might be related to the information dated 7.8.08 on: http://www.staffofthemagi.com/

Both the front page and 13lights have changed. Front got rid of the puzzles. 13lights now has a quote from Hitchhiker's Guide with "Forty Two?" linking to the map.

The exact quote:

Quote:
"I think the problem is that the question was too broadly based..."

"Forty two?!" yelled Loonquawl. "Is that all you've got to show for seven and a half million years' work?"

"I checked it very thoroughly," said the computer, "and that quite definitely is the answer. I think the problem, to be quite honest with you, is that you've never actually known what the question is."


They could be saying that the last clue was too vague, and are trying to give another hint.

Keeping with my U.S.S. Constitution theme... the ship fought in 42 engagements, with a record of 42-0.

Sounds to me like someone needs to stroll down to Ol' Ironsides, pronto.

Hey you drunken sots! Are you listening?

Not particularly. Busy with the drunken debauchery. Very Happy

If that was the last clue being too vague, I suppose the next clue will be the site changing to say "GET TO THE DAMN USS CONSTITUTION!"
