Thats not hex. There should be letters in there if it was hex. And you should also come out with a lot more characters. Assuming this is a puzzle, the first 6 characters represent the date which should probably be removed. So that leaves us with:

01351831338153 - Mercury
01493111211394 - Nickle
01612120102121 - Platinum
07151241142151 - Gold
09181514741518 - Iron
01991222322219 - Silver
03151616561615 - Copper

Did anyone else notice that the order of the room links shifts around depending what page your on? Think that could mean something?

Looks like the numbers are supposed to coordinate to letters.
1=A
2=B
etc...

Code:

0-13- 5-18- 3-13- 3- 8-15- 3 - Mercury
 - M- E- R- C- M- C- H- O- C

0-14-9-3-11-12-11-3-9-4 - Nickle
 - N- I- C- K- L- K- E- I- D

0-16-12- 1-20-10-21-21 - Platinum
 - P- L- A- T- J- U- U - Could be broken up differently?

0- 7-15-12- 4-11- 4-21- 5- 1 - Gold
 - G- O- L- D- K- D- U- E- A

0- 9-18-15-14- 7- 4-15-18 - Iron
 - I- R- O- N- G- D- O- R

0-19- 9-12-22- 3-22-21- 9 - Silver
 - S- I- L- V- C- V- U- I

0- 3-15-16-16- 5- 6-16-15 - Copper
 - C- O- P- P- E- F- P- O

order of theme rooms determined by falling rocks?

Is it possible that the order of these numbers is determined by the falling rocks picture? The list on the site is:
The Platinim Suite
The Gold Suite
The Silver Room
The Copper Suite
The Mercury Mini-Suite
The Copper Room
The Iron Room
The Nickel Room

One side note, we pointed this out last night in irc, but if you notice, there is a Copper Room and a Copper Suite mentioned on one page. When you click on the picture for Copper Room, the page says Copper Suite. Is the a mistake by the PM's? Or is there really a Copper Room and a Copper Suite?

darkphan -- I sent an e-mail to GMH asking about that. I'll post when I get a response.

Real post:

I've been working with the room numbers, I haven't got anything new and exciting, but here is what I have:

First I took "0920040" of the begining of all of the numbers.
Then, with the remaining nombers, I created the first 4 letters of each word by matching the numbers to the corresponding letter (1->a, 2->b etc...)
The remaining numbers were practically the same as the used numbers, reordered, and with a few missing, or added.

Code:

Platinum -
16-12-1-20        102121 (6 is missing)
P-L-A-T

Gold -
7-15-12-4         1142151 (7 is missing)
G-O-L-D

Silver -
19-9-12-22        322219 (9 and 1 missing, 3 is extra)
S-I-L-V

Copper -
3-15-16-16        561615 (3 and 1 missing, 5 is extra)
C-O-P-P

Mercury -
13-5-18-3         1338153 (3 is extra)
M-E-R-C 

Iron -
9-18-15-14        741518 (9 and 1 missing, 7 is extra)
I-R-O-N

Nickle -
14-9-3-11         1211394 (2 is Extra)
N-I-C-K


[EDIT] I reordered the metals to mirror the order on GMH [/EDIT]

Looks like a mistake. http://www.goldminehotel.com/amenities.html now only shows Copper once...

The gif file of the falling rocks was identified to contain nickel, silver and copper. I figured that might help you guys out.

don't know if this is relevant or not but the prices of the rooms used to be:
Quote:
The Platinum Suite . . . . . . . . . $250/night
The Gold Suite . . . . . . . . . . . . $225/night
The Silver Room . . . . . . . . . . . $150/night
The Mercury Mini-Suite . . . . . . $195/night
The Copper Room . . . . . . . . . $175/night
The Iron Room . . . . . . . . . . . $195/night
The Nickel Room . . . . . . . . . . $195/night

Now they are:
Quote:
The Platinum Suite . . . . . . . . . $250/night
The Gold Suite . . . . . . . . . . . . $225/night
The Silver Room . . . . . . . . . . . $150/night
The Mercury Mini-Suite . . . . . . $195/night
The Copper Suite . . . . . . . . . . $175/night
The Iron Room . . . . . . . . . . . $200/night
The Nickel Room . . . . . . . . . . $125/night


So they changed the prices of the Iron Room and Nickel Room so that each room has a unique price. Confused I also find it odd that the rooms are not listed in increasing/decresing price order... Confused

Considering Tara mentioned this in her update, I'm willing to bet that this is a hint.

So, all that has changed is Iron and Nickel... Iron and Nickel...
