[BIG-ASS GIANT SHARK] I missed the 24th and need an update! Aye, I was away all week and just got back this morning, so can anyone give me a lightning-quick recap of everything that happened including and after the 24th? This is kind of worse than a trout, it's more like a big shark... thanks guys. =)
EDIT: My confusion has grown incredibly. I see that the "links" portion of the site seems to have a series of .wav files... were the locations pay phones?
LoL, and now I'm scared a bee is gonna come attack me 'cause I viewed the links without authorization.

No, Search button is there for a reason, explaining it quickly would confuse you.

I don't know what to search on. All I've been able to gather is that people went to locations, but I'm still trying to piece together things... were the locations payphones?

Now now Theorizer, that's not the first unhelpful post I've seen from you today. If you're going to point someone towards the Search button, you could at least use it yourself to give them a starting point.
A quick search for "24th summary" gives Rose's summary , which is a good starting point. (Quick note: yes, they were payphones.)
Since then - i.e. yesterday - the Sleeping Princess has chosen a question from last week based on our vote, answered it, and given us some more to vote on. (Find a 404ed page to look at this, e.g. http://www.ilovebees.com/foo/ )
This page also points to recipe3.html (search for "behind the kitchen" or "recipe3" for more detail) where there are four more axons. Good luck catching up!

Here, this might be helpful.
Check out the bee blog.
Go nearly to the bottom. As you can see, a LOT happened. Hope this's helpful. It's more of a succinct narrative then forums are and the Search function.

Ah yes, I forgot it wasn't early evening for some people
I forgot about the bee blog too, yes, that's always a good catch-up resource. Just wanted to mention ARGN.com too, which has some good stuff on the Axons Go Hot day. Probably overlaps with the blog a lot too.

Searching through hundreds of posts in no particular order would take forever. Heres a BASIC recap. On the 24th the links pages changed to that and throughout the day payphones were called. People gathered and answered a few questions to get authorization. I believe they were Name? Nickname? and password? After they did that an audio recording was played on the phone. These audio files were then unlocked on the website once 2 phones for each file were answered. There were 30 or so and they were in a random order. Each was eventually unlocked by the 25th i believe ( if we missedo ne they called the next day same time). These files were then ordered correctly to make 3 coversations. You can download the merged files here:

Also there was some new hidden text on the site in images i believe which lead to a riddle. The riddle was solved with the answer The yellow brick road. It was then that http://www.ilovebees.com/yellowbrickroad.html was found. That page is a conversation between the sleeping princess and the pious flea. Now on the 27th 4 more axons were found after seeing a new 404 page which mentioned that the princess opened a hidden backdoor in the kitchen, These new axons are located on the recipe3.html page. 2 have been unlocked and appear to be a 4th conversation. The two unlocked are in sequential order and its speculated the other two will be the beginning of the conversation. I'm sure i left a ton out but thats the important stuff. Have fun!
Edit: wow in the time it took me to write that up 4 more posst were made!
