[Trivia] If this is the Beast 2...

If we are to assume that these people did The Beast (the game for A.I.), then we can also assume that updates come on tuesday for this game as they did for the other.

The only real information we have would be the main site and the blog... and the blog was created on tuesday July 13th. As for the real site, we can assume a similar starting date since it would theoretically have had to be created before or at the same time as the blog itself.

Anyway, just a thought I was having. I guess we'll find out on tuesday weither or not I'm crazy.

One thing the Beast PMs excelled at was unpredictability, so I doubt they'd update on Tuesday again...assuming it's them, of course.

Well, 3 days from now (the throttling and erosion talked about on the black box warning) is a tuesday. 17 days from now is a tuesday as well... August 24th is a tuesday (the day that the countdown is going towards)... and Halo 2 is being released on a tuesday from what I've heard.

Maybe it is just a signature of thier group? Who knows.

Yep, same days as the Beast (not just Tuesdays).

24th

Not sure if this has been mentioned but this ARG began on the day that The Beast ended.

Cool. Nice catch.

[edit] well, I checked and I have to say merely "close" but not exact. The end of the AI game was the day/day after the Mann Act vote on July 23. The PMs issued their email to the players on July 24. ilovebees and Dana's blog was in play almost a week before that. (Since cloudmakers.org is still down, I checked through Adrian Hon's Guide)

That's certainly interesting.

Well, now we've done all this meta-ing, waiting for the update gets harder and harder.

Too obvious?

Possible trout, but I'm a noob so...
It also makes sense the sequel to The Beast (666) would emphasize 777 as is the case here.

number transends..

Hmm.. moving from 666 to 777 was a nice notice. However, 777 is the holy number as opposed to the number of the beast, AFAIK.

777, or 7 in general, is a Bungie calling card.
