No offence and it's redundant to argue this at all but. Sorry, to me that isn't proof.

That could easily have been photoshopped. And I emphasize the easily.

Give me a little while as I'm a bit busy doing more important things but I'll make one where I scored over 2000 Smile


DarkUFO swears that it wasn't photoshopped (click the link i posted). DarkUFO has no reason to lie because doing so would negate the purpose of his website.

Perhaps it's not a test of spacial recognition, but a test of morality? Make the cheat obvious to find, and see who uses it? Then again didn't they say on the progress board something about breaking us up into groups? Perhaps those who use the cheat will be in one group and those who don't the other?


Morality and DHARMA don't go together. Their history is full of bloodshed and lies.

 		That's because you are only using half of the cheat. Read the parameter.


UPDATE: I decided to go ahead and use it. It's just too dang blatant. So I ended up with a 99.

I know. I'm not saying they want the moral but that they are testing morality. Looking for those with a "certain moral flexability" that would fullfill their needs.

 		No dposse, there is more to it than that.

You guys can ask me or Waitress#2 for the instructions in PM.

Yes, and sometimes it goes the other way--either direction leaves a space. I am taking this as a hint to find the cheat code.



EDIT: alright you guys, I have sent out instructions to about 5 or 6 of you....do you believe me now???? LOL!!

Actually no there isn't. Unless you'd like to get way more than 99/100.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I moved the first piece the slightest bit ever, pressed space and it turned the screen around and I carried on


Got a 99.

 		I'm beginning to think that this cheat was intentional. It reminds me of the new Dharma logo in the background that looks stuck in time.

 		Are you on a Mac or a PC Leyton???? I was just speaking to someone who actually KNOWS script codes, and he said that I misread what I found and that the number 1 is the number of the parameter (first parameter). So technically you are correct. However, just doing what you did doesn't work on my Mac. But doing it the way I "misinterpreted" does. This is getting really interesting!!!!

EDIT: Just tried it again. I had tried the method Leyton used AFTER people started trying just that and it didn't work for me that time. I just tried it again and it does. Remember, I stumbled on to this parameter, and misinterpreted it, thinking that the parameters order number was a part of the "stop time" action. So when I tried it out on the site, it worked. Now that others are getting into it, and it's getting straightened out, I see it is even more straightforward than i first thought. I am now pretty much convinced we were supposed to find this.

 		You know after looking at the cheat and testing it out, without logging in, I thought of something.

They have run ARG's before, they would know that a player would decompile the file. So why program it in there if they didnt want us to use it?

I'm on a P.C

And that in itself kind of jumps into Dposse's thought (and one I also had) that this might have been intentional.

If there's ways of doing this on both P.C/MAC then it seems more evident it's been programmed in.

Edit: Also apparently... One of their hidden messages was

ne of the hidden messages they released was "PRESSured SPACial"
