 		Spoilers: BMW game
Okay, I'm so far behind the times on this. But here's what I have so far...feel free to jump in.
Went to bmwfilms.com to watch the first season films.
Apparently the 'view subplot' films are where the clues are.

Watched the subplot for Ambush...looks like the guy rummaged through a wrecked beemer and found what looks like an airline ticket stub.

In the subplot of Chosen we get a clear shot of a piece of paper with www.cbmlt.com written on a scrap of paper. Went there and encountered a dialog box requiring a password. Tried BMW and got http://www.cbmlt.com/home.html

 		subplot Follow
This subplot has the title: The Investigation and The Man in the Tan Jacket. (the film Follow is no longer available).

There is a clear shot of a phone number: 212-259-9458 and a book titled: The Real Heroes.

 		www.cbmlt.com by the way the only thing I could find that made any sense as a rotation was ROT 1
cbmlt = balks For whatever that is worth.

In fact, there is no check on the entered password - you may type anything, or hit cancel, and still get to the home.html

 		last season
I believe last season's hunt led you to a promotions guy in major cities handing out free BMWFilms DVDs.

I wonder what it'll be this year?

 		New Game
Dial the number shown during the newest BMW film (Directed by John Woo) to begin the next hunt. I am already pretty far, let's see how far you can get.

bildsten is dead. ping me

I pinged him and got 209.46.8.206 and entered that and got sent to http://www.deciphernaut-hq.com/ which seems to be giving out clues or something like that. Also putting in www.deciphernaut.com took me there as well Smile Also when i run 209.46.8.206 thru samspade I got stopped at some web hosting site called gofast.net - just wondered if any one else had this happen. The gofast.net site was created in 1994 and seems legitimate so it may be a red herring.

Just my little contribution .

I typed ping www.deciphernaut.com in the run box and it timed out on me but gave me the number 209.46.8.206 which i typed in the address bar and hit enter , and then ended up at http://www.deciphernaut-hq.com/ like I said previously Smile

 		I'm officially lost on this. Can someone please help me understand the Cross the Five puzzle? The text at the bottom says: A five is a five. A zero is a zero. All other numbers cross to become a new number.
