GMH Update - Themed Rooms Brochure, HAXORED main page

If you go to the Amenities page on the Gold Mine Hotel site, there is now a link to http://goldminehotel.com/trooms.html the brochure that Tara Hutchins promised us.

Maybe a minute after the Themed Rooms update, http://www.goldminehotel.com now gives a strange page that says "HTTP 403 (Forbidden)" and has a picture that appears to be a person holding a baby, included below.

[EDIT]
And it's gone already!

you might want to fix the URL; it's got a comma stuck in the code.

as for the picture, it looks to me like a giant E.T. ripping off a guys head. Shocked

EDIT: Fixed the problem with the comma in the link on the first post. squeek.

One more picture!
This time, the page title is ".............." and in the source code comments say
"<!--url's used in the movie-->
<!--text used in the movie-->"

I think they do that just to say that that's either new or been updated.

Those two items in the source code (as I learned during my first ARG) are leftovers and not typically clues.

I did find your mysterious picture (looks like it may be a stereograph, but I can't find a picture inside of it) here: http://www.goldminehotel.com/images/picture2.jpg

I wonder if this is stegged? Or something really out of focus?

EDIT: This image is gone from the images folder

Sum boddy can't tell time

Okay, so here we all are expecting this event to occur at 7pm PDT, cuz...well...Nevada is in the Pacific time zone. Silly us. The site changed promptly at 6pm Pacific Daylight time and then the numbers associated with the theme rooms disappeared promptly at 7:17. Props for getting the 77 minutes right. But some people missed the cool stuff and...well, we're just not so happy about it. Drat it all.

close rant

GMH haxor redux

at 8:01 PDT, the baby showed up again on the GMH main page, then vanished. Very mysterious. And thanks, it was fun to finally see that.

beautiful eye pic

Some of us in chat are seeing a woman cradling a baby in the pupil/iris area. I also see what looks like the silouette of a man in the area that would be the white of the eye.

ghostly images

The hands holding the baby, and the woman cradling the baby both bring to mind the poor woman who died trying to rescue her baby from the mine shaft.
