[META]So who'll be there tomorrow hitting Refresh at 6:07am?

Is this an event that's really worth waking up early for? Do you think some major cataclysmic event will play for those of us who are devoted enough to watch the events unfold? Or will it be like a silent breeze, slowly wafting it's way across the landscape, subtle changes that will take a subconsious time to digest...

Who will be there, hitting refresh like a junkie monkey, holding it's breath in anxious anticipation over it's next dose? I know I will!

You're strangling a monkey tomorrow just for the ARG? Seems a bit extreme ... Oh, it's a simile. My bad. Razz

I'm guessing there'll be a new puzzle on the site tomorrow that points us towards more websites. We shall see!

Unfortunately, I currently only have internet at work, and NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING is getting me to work at 6am ever... Laughing (although I have admittedly thought about it...)

I think the metasizing will take place unnoticed, the operator will simply spread to other systems silently.

Which leads into the next question, I guess...what time will "Metasticizing" take place? I assumed 6:07am, since that's what time the timer stops (on the 24th). When did the effects from the "Network Throttling" take place?

Trout , believe it or not. As discussed in this thread, last time the update took place some time before noon (EDT).

I plan on being up when the clock hits. Then I will see if anything happens. Then I will go back to sleep if it isns't anything big. I am leaving my options open.

I won't be up specifically at 6:07, because I don't think that's when it will Mestastasizzilesizawhizzile. I'll be up at normal time, but check the forum before I usually go to work. If there's something big, I'll discover more about it when I get home. If it hasn't occured yet, it'll probably occur at the same time the Network Throttling Eroded.

If I remember correctly the last major update (2 weeks ago) was up at noon eastern time right? So you guys might not need to get up so early after all.

I will not be here for that! I will be enjoying turning 16 while metastasizing is taking place... but of course after cake and things I will probably run back here to read up on if anything happened...

Birthday! Wooh. Smile
