Ahem, must have missed the second page on this thread (guilty gulp)...


So it looks out of game - still the fan has put the numbers in the source, so good on him/her - you caught a few of us out!

I see it, but I think these are just stock photos. Maybe taking the words the images may represent could lead us to a coherent sentence.

Agreed. more likely. The family on the beach I have seen before as stock, for hospital ads.

Now that you mention it, it strikes a chord (oh no, an unintentional reference to the video!). Maybe it's just hindsight bias.

Hooray! It's "the masked unit" here, I found my old login details.

One thing puzzles me about this: "aairmover"

why not the gramatically correct "anairmover" ?

The misuse of grammar must be intentional, but why?

aairmover = a "insert another word for air mover"
we therefore see : a fan.

an fan woudlve confused people i daresay.

edit: i think we can lay to rest that the site is out of game. the images are positive negative stegs, and the front page/only page says it all. not in game, go to the real site here's a link.

Hi ya,

Checked this site the other day - nothing there, now this! cool (Definatly looks in game)

I'm surprised no one has spotted the following from within the html source...

Quote:

<div align="center">aairmover<br><!--3519847977 3624534352--><br>


Those two numbers from e ??
(remember the errorlog folder)


I don't think the numbers are part of e.

It's a fan - probably someone we know. Or one of several thousand lurkers.

Perhaps they've used an obvious number to code the images, as this really isn't much to write home about?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I dunno, just deffo not in game imho, would be nice to know if anything, what our colleague has hidden on their site.

the site is most definitley out of game.

As for aairmover instead of anairmover...maybe it's just another reference to it being just a typo. ?

I think they thought of a reason for this in another thread; airmover = fan

Therefore;

anairmover = an fan

So it makes more sense for it to be:

aairmover = a fan

Someone else explained it better Rolling Eyes

EDIT: Sorry I didn't realise firefox had already just said this Sad
