But I suppose this does answer the series of numbers at the top of one of the pages. Why 3 was left out is beyond me though...

 		Let me rephrase...

I know we knew numbers on the dice and that we believe them to be dates in august, I was referring to the confusion shown over "august 13, 18, 2" on file #5. Razz

 		Ah, gotcha Embarassed

But like I mentioned above, why leave out the 3. Possible hint that it's the third in a series? So many possibilities...

And file 2 has me confused as well. '5x Repeat'? 'wtf'?

.

5x Repeat = every 5th day? that would make sense.

and as far as the name goes..i didn't get an R from it..i got a D. it was blurred out but i'm pretty sure it's a D not an R. so the project lead is D and on the one page it says give it ti "D".

Makes sense, with this tweet from whatis51:

Whatis51.com you have to poke around a bit Wink

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
By moving the dice around, you can get to http://whatis51.com/phase2/ which is where the files are located, you should probably follow whatis51 on twitter, and tweet @whatis51 Conference calls suck!! as per the files.

Am I the only one who noticed that LAUNCH is spelled LAYUNCH?


It's typewriter style, I think it's just a "typo".

@Turducken
On the main page you move the die around randomly, until the files appear. Laughing

Well, ok. There is a sensible method to get there, but I'm not sure I got it exactly right. I think you move the die to the place that shows the current date at the time. But I just moved them around with no clue.

There you go, Magog with another explanation like mine. Smile

Easy way to make the "dates" appear:
Move all die to the right side. Then to the left side. I think I got all the dates that way.

I got one dice stuck in the bottom right date position for some reason, I think that's only since phase 2, though. No clue. Confused

 		Turducken, someone posted all the files a few pages back. I'd recommend giving this entire thread a quick read through to get caught up.

As for the 'on an island' tweet, think it's a clue? I started thinking of a few games when Lost Via Domus popped into my head, and stupid me for thinking 'omg! could domus mean domino is latin?!'. Yeah, I was wrong...

 		"Find this in P.2"
Dont mean to backtrack but just wanted to throw this in there since i didnt see it mentioned in any of the pages... the picture with the 51 pin and smily face said "Find this in P._" now that phase 2 was discovered i think its safe to assume it meant "Find this in P(hase).2"?

Ive only been following loosely so if this was already addressed feel free to hit me. lol

 		Ok, not sure if this is new or not, but I started looking for the MP3 file mentioned and I found this:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
http://www.whatis51.com/#44-9851.mp3

Now it doesn't have the call itself, but if you move the dice around, dominos start to appear. I'm not sure if anything else pops up yet. I'll go look now[.

Edit: Actually, this looks a lot like how you guys described phase 1 of the site was.

Edit2: Hmm, this one works too, and seems exactly like the last link
http://www.whatis51.com/#44-985117/8.mp3

Edit3: This one too http://www.whatis51.com/#44-98518/17.mp3

I think if you put anything after the # it'll give you the same page. Pretty sure it has to do with URL's.
