 		Recruiting people
We don't get 'credit' for recruiting people through Facebook & Twitter, right?
It doesn't appear that my posted link has any association to me as an individual.

I am still trying though! Smile

I think when the first clue is done the guy in the video (probably Ian Sider the guy who runs the twitter) will unlock another part of the site with a unique URL?

just some speculation

 		The real answer is out there and in this thread. It's not a word but a code.

 		Umbrella Code
I suggest we stop helping each other, the website encourages it to increase publicity but the more people who find out the less likely will win the prizes.
Stop posting urls or giving hints, and lets challenge ourselves.

Hey i suggest we don't send the website's link to facebook or twitter, they want us to but we don't benefit, we'll only have compitition

We should work together but not include anyone else in this game.

the birkin link is hidden within the left part of the map. Hint: use a lot of zoom.


Ok, insane amount of zoom compared to what I had thought the first time I tried! Brilliant though, this is going to be fun Very Happy

(thanks for just giving me a clue to do it, I still wanted to figure out the steps on my own if I can, even if it is easier when people have given away the code Wink )

 		Glad to see others are working on this ARG! I found this through a friend of mine, another RE Fan! Let's keep the teamwork going! As for the guy who set the IRC up, good idea!

Erm. I highly suggest we don't do that (work against others). 1) we don't do that here, 2) it doesn't foster community, let alone positive attitudes, 3) it's very elitist and annoying :) If you want to protect your solutions, I'd recommend going to a forum that does do that sort of thing, there are many out there (and they're not unfiction - love this place! ;) )

 		This is pretty cool! I hope one of us wins the gas mask, I want to see if they've tarted it up in any way.

There's absolutely no real point to that. There are only 2 masks and one has already been won. The other prizes are just patches, t-shirts and Microsoft points and there are a bunch of them. The odds of anyone of us winning the other mask would not change much by having more ppl in. In fact if you withhold information from others or if they withhold info from you. You're odds become much worse. Besides, it's just a game. enjoy it Wink

P.S. The guy said in the video that the challenges would be both mental and physical so it's possible that they'll have items (not mentioned in the contest) that they'll need people to track down in certain cities.
