Old trailhead? stumbledupon.com

[demonpunk]

You know I could swear I've seen this somewhere before. The pii symbol and the quotes seem really familiar but I can't place it. Can't find anything on a search either though so who knows....

[montaigne]

Did a bit more poking around, if you click on the participating sites link you get linked to something called Gold Stork. There's a dialogue there which seems pretty staged, dated some time in 2008. Must be a trailhead for something.
Clicking on the disclaimer link gives this page http://stumbledupon.com/disclaimer.htm, definitely a trailhead.

The website is run by something called Mango Labs. www.mangolabs.com is an acronym of the person the last quote is attributed to.

Really curious now, would love to know what happened with this

Results of further poking

[demonpunk]

I notice the user on goldstork asking questions is going by the name jtrapp and that wh1t3h0t mentions SU which is Stumbled Upon and how he left a message. Mangolabs is a site about earthquake and tsunami prevention I guess with a name,contact # and address. Also a place to put your email address. I'll call the # when I get to work before I shoot an email though.

Well scratch that. I typed mangolabs not mangolab so I was on the completely wrong site. I realized right before i called. All this stuff seems to go in a big circle though cuz mangolab has a product called polybags.

Thought that i found the solution but doesn't work....

They say we have to :
when the shifting sands align the tumbler = dd:mm:yy = hh:mm:ss

the "tumblers" are from the local clock of the pc so i thought that i have to set my clock to something like:

2/2/2 02:02:02

or
11/11/11 11:11:11

or since the month is +1

11/10.11 11:11:11

but for the moment nothing...

[rykar]

Did anyone else notice that the last quote on the main page isn't a quote from anyone? And what's up with the trailing text?

[natas]

the tumblers are correct as is, but seems to be only showing the last digit of the time/date and backwards S,M,H,D,M,Y

for example, right now the numbers are

092060

0 seconds
59 minutes
12 hours
30th day
6th month
2010th year

take the last number of each of those values and
No idea where to go from there though.

[phantomaz]

Yes, they show only the last digits think because are taken with a function called
GetRightDigit();
that should take the last digit on the right...

they say us to aligh our clock to something like :
dd:mm:yy = hh:mm:ss

a lot of try but still nothing...

In-game or not?

[odiec]

Could the tumbler have to do with Pi? Maybe it has to get to 314159, but that would have to be in May of 1999/2009/2019/etc. I tried setting my computer's clock back, but it didn't seem to change the numbers on the website.
