Hmm, so what does it all mean? I've tried all sorts of combinations of words and potential meanings.

/machine
/machine.html
/machines.html
/machines
/bravenewworld

etc.

None worked. Smile

I may be stating the obvious, but sometimes that needs done Wink

1050 days is also 150 weeks exactly.

I've tried various iterations of 150, 1050, turn, turning, turn/turn/turning.html, etc as well as several tries with both .html and .swf suffixes.

No love so far...but I bet the PMs are getting a kick out of seeing us reach.

Yeah, I've tried a lot of "turn" and "weeks" stuff. Maybe there's still a puzzle in the flipped/non-flipped tiles?

The first "thousand" or "fwchorey" I noticed I screwed up. Other than that there might be other mistakes.

The f's, h's, and i's look REALLY similar in betamaze.

Looks like we're making wonderful progress. We definitely don't need a hint on this one. No, definitely not.

The term "Noblest of Romans" could refer to Antony's description of Brutus at Caesar's funeral, and down under generally means Australia, at least in the USA. Where this leads us I have no clue. Possibly something only the old metacortechs crew would understand?

Well, in MU, Scratch was referred to as Noble Roman. Or at least they talked about him in that Noble/Roman directory that it took us forever to find. Also, scratch is the guy who said "oh look, a mysterious image."

Ok let's brainstorm..

The phrase can mean several things.. Scratch or Brutus, and then Australia, Underground, etc. My initial through was "Brutus Resurrected". There's a small gramatical annoyance.. it says "come" instead of "comes" so I'm getting things like "The Brutus come from Australia"..

I think the title of the page also changed.. it says "oh look again" so are we supposed to go back to the symbols? Something to do with which ones are turned or some hidden word in there?

If we ignore the literal meaning.. there are the capitalized letters.. TNRDU which anagrams to TURND. But it doesn't make sense because they could have thrown in an E. But it fits with "the symbols turn".. uhh..
