I agree, the binary clock is FTW. So that being legit, I applied it to the other clue that's in the same format, and YAMA is the result. Maybe that clue is still in a transitional state and we need to further transform/decode YAMA - I don't know.
Probably.

What I do know is that YAMA isn't meaningless and it does bear some resemblance to what is going on here. It's not as if YAMA turned out to be a fertility god or the name of a unicorn.
Also agreed.

SM is depicted as having elongated/multiple limbs. That is very similar to the iconography of Hinduism (e.g., Vishnu and Shiva have multiple arms) and to Japanese mythology (e.g., shapeshifting obake).
A tad more abstract, but yeah, a possibility for sure.

Then this just further explains that grasping at air brings down the whole entertainment of this whole thing.

Ahh, reminds me of Friedrich Nietzsche.

Staying with pairs and taking a hint from the many reverse clues you could see 25 (0)1 13 (0)1 as BE/LSB 10 31 10 52. Looks like a date and time.

Oct 31, 10:52... well, Halloween is just a few days away, so that is plausible.

It's a good point. None of this is new, and as such, doesn't need a new thread.

I apologize, I wasn't aware of this being highlighted before. I didn't see it in any of the previous posts. But then again, we are talking about 100+ pages.

Well, there's also the Advocate thread.
Anyway, Oct 31... I think this takes place in Pacific time, doesn't it?
