[UPDATE] [PUZZLE] HNY - The fax puzzle has an update.

The time mentioned on http://thisismymilwaukee.com/20138/ is getting close! It's actually just over two hours from now.

1230768000 (Midnight, 1/1/2009, UTC expressed as seconds since 1970)

What's going to happen when time's up? Perhaps it will be so delicious we will all level up!

http://www.timeanddate.com/counters/customcounter.html?month=1&day=1&year=2009&hour=0&min=0&sec=0&p0=0

edit: changed title. The html title of the 20138 page has changed to "HNY" which I think probably just means happy new year. It's go time, people! o/`

I want this to be true. Perhaps, if we all clap our hands and believe...

But I'm not getting my hopes up. Regardless, Happy New Year Timmer's! Let's hope '09 is weirder, wilder and more wonderful than '08, in all realities Smile

I've been playing around with this in Photoshop (I'd post the results but I haven't yet tried the compilation on any maps as I'm at work, and I've used posts from some of you fine folks as my base- don't want to copy anyone)... I keep thinking that the text on the map should overlay the names of locations... the letters on the new item line up with the 2010 (or z010) a bit like this:
C 2010 a n
With everything on that line of the table, you get:
84 C 2010 a n 7
That's also starting to look like part of an address perhaps.

Just my newbie two cents Smile
edit: Ah, when last I refreshed, the submissions that are already up, were not up! Sorry guys, and good job on the fast work!

This probably isn't anything, but here's the map along with the grid from page 26 in M:ARH. I lined it up with the 2 and 7.

Well now it seems like x marks the basketball court as the spot.
