Wow, very detailed. Something else I noticed when I took a look at the page tonight. In the HTML source of the page, there is this:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

HEX 46 6f 72 20 47 6f 64 20 73 6f 20 6c 6f 76 65 64 20 74 68 65 20 77 6f 72 6c
64 20 74 68 61 74 20 68 65 20 67 61 76 65 20 68 69 73 20 6f 6e 65 20 61 6e 64 20
6f 6e 6c 79 20 53 6f 6e 2c 20 74 68 61 74 20 77 68 6f 65 76 65 72 20 62 65 6c 69
65 76 65 73 20 69 6e 20 68 69 6d 20 73 68 61 6c 6c 20 6e 6f 74 20 70 65 72 69 73
68 20 62 75 74 20 68 61 76 65 20 65 74 65 72 6e 61 6c 20 6c 69 66 65 2e


which translates to
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son' that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

which is, of course, john 3:16.

 		yeah maladylis has all the source code messages a few posts ago, here.

One thing I failed to mention in my previous post is the Ð character on the /adventures page.


With some Wikipedia searching I found the following:
It is the Eth character. Who's lower case is ð.
Wikipedia wrote:
The letter ð is sometimes used in mathematics and engineering textbooks as a symbol for a spin-weighted partial derivative. This operator gives rise to spin-weighted spherical harmonics.


Spin-weighted spherical harmonics are functions first introduced by Ezra T. Newman and Roger Penrose to describe gravitational radiation.

Gravitational radiation is the energy transported by a gravitational wave, which is a fluctuation in the curvature of space-time which propagates as a wave, traveling outward from a moving object or system of objects.

Could be something there or maybe just me being Screwy

 		Has anyone else followed the origami instructions here to fold the boarding pass into a box?

When I do this, and look inside the hole, I see:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
GUM
which is the airport code for Guam Intl. apparently

One Way

Departing: 1/21/2009
Select Flight: 316 11:30am
Adults: 10
Children: 0
Promotional Code: 112114111109111

You have to use the calender icon next to departing to get the select flight drop down.
You also have to click 36 different seats before it will let you choose a seat. The 36th time will say: "Thank you. Your boarding pass is now ready to print."

I printed up this boarding pass folded it into the origami ball and it still showed GUM when you looked into it.

First email from Ajira Airways.

I am posting it as a spoiler in case other people want to check their emails first before reading it here.

I only signed up once for Ajira Airways but I received emails to all 3 of the accounts that I had used for the DWY ARG. So they must be using the list from the ARG.

I also sent a reply and asked them to please send me an application for an Ajira Airways SkyClub credit card. I have not received a reply to that yet.

 		Don't know if you can go to the direct link or not...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://www.ajiraairways.com/seating


Attached is my pass, which does seem like an awfully big file (1.06Mb) for such a simplistic pass...

ETA: Their "sample" pass, shown here, isn't any smaller.

the direct link seemed to stop working as fast as we found it yesterday. At least it doesn't work for me anymore. I now am directed to the flights page unlike yesterday when I could go directly to the seating page.

 		If you want to see just the seating chart flash file you can go directly to http://70.32.90.124/fla/chart.swf, although using this option you cannot view the boarding pass. The passes are generic from what I can tell, and the only difference from the sample pass from earlier is that the "From", "Destination", "To|Destination" "Date", and "Time" fields are now filled out. Also, even though I picked a seat in the economy class the ticket still reads First Class.

When clicking the seats:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
You will get whichever seat you click on the 36th time. It does not matter how or which seats you choose. #36 will always be your seat. And there are little pictures that flash in the info window to the left of the chart. they also follow a set pattern.

On Click # - Picture

The best that I can make out, the departures board in 10 is as follows:

Flight - Departing For - Time - Gate - Remarks
    5442 - Sydney - 10:15A - 20 - On Time
    334 - Tokyo - 12:35P - 34 - Delay
    316 - Honolulu/Guam - 11:30A - 15 - Board
    5431 - Wellington - 1:25A - 19 - On Time
    647 - Bangkok - 5:45P - 24 - Delay

 		Can't seem to get a boarding pass...
I have been trying to get to the seating chart and when I try and book a flight it tells me that all flights are now booked. I tried to duplicate the pass that Nighthawk has and I am getting the same response. Anyone else having a problem?

That could explain how the Island moved. There's been alot of really advanced science mentioned in LOST recently, such as the Kerr metric.

make sure you are doing it all correctly like this... some people are trying to manually put in the date which doesn't work, you have to use the calendar function. also it takes clicking on the seats 36 times before it says you can now print your boarding pass so don't give up on it like alot of other people are.

I think I have 5 forums I haunt but I have my favorites and this was my first so it's a favorite.

I love the Ajira site. Like someone said, there isn't much to do on it but there is more to try and figure out so it makes it more exciting... for me anyway. Razz
