Well, the countdown changed to -002 from -02 and now I see the QR code link is now a link to another QR code and it's pretty obvious from there... nothing special just wait for the countdown to finish.

I just checked it and got the message "Sorry, server is not available at the moment. Please wait. This site will be working very soon!". Refreshed after a few minutes and site has broken links and "hidden" text. The source hasn't changed much.

ETA: Ok now it's all black. I guess they're still piddling with it.

That's the thing when I checked it out a few minutes ago there was an image of a map and several checkpoints marked off on it along with a note and a weird 1 877 phone number along with an entry form for a contest. There was also a section labeled 'field communication'

ooh nice. they probably found a bug after it went live and reverted back to an old state. Then they probably saw that reverting it broke links and such and just made it a black bckgrnd. I'm sure they'll get it worked out here soon.

yeah the phone number was a button and when I'd pressed it it had said something about you had to check out the checkpoints and look to the sky and if you saw your name you were on the team, or something along those lines.

Hmm. Well the site is back to normal. The countdown is back with about 30 minutes left. I tried changing my system clock and it had no effect on the countdown like it did before.

Sounds like countdown fail to me actually. What's your timezone?

I'm Atlantic Time Zone but I think their hour digits were broken because mine never showed how many hours were left.

I get the impression that nothings going to happen in 10 mins other then it's going to cycle back over to 59 mins.

yeah maybe. I guess it depends on if they had a bug in the new site and had to revert or if it was countdown fail and they launched it early.

ETA: Yep back to 59 minutes. Hopefully they have it figured out by tomorrow. Sleep has beckoned me.

My countdown is finished but nothing is happening. I can't even view the 'V' video. Prepare is closed as well.
