......actually get a paper copy of the NY Sun? Did anyone check the classifieds. Since we have now got the USA Today add and the Times add, I cannot believe that there wasn't an add run in the NY Sun.

It will be annoying if noone managed to get hold of this paper.

As for Presidents Day I'm guessing this means that the date for classified submission changed from the 22nd to the 23rd, and not the date the adds were run. the add would have to have been placed the week before or so anyway.


Read UP^^

We emailed the NYSun and they responded by saying the Ad will be placed in tomorrow's paper.

so it does, and if you put the numbers in order the first names are then also in aphlabetic order. could be a coincience. I am mentioning it here since the error logs where brought up earlier in the thread.

seems like a fan mentioned it in his blog, and that somehow turned up on that first google response. Can't seem to find much more, but I'm bored, maybe I'll keep looking.


Yeah, that's just my blog, please ignore it. There isn't more info there than on this forum. But to make up for the time you've lost reading my ramblings, I updated the wiki with the advert from The London Times that was published... just a couple of posts down.

No!!!

Does this mean we will have to wait another month until we really get going? Evil or Very Mad

I really hope not, the email from Sente gives me hope that this is not just more pregame though

This isnt pregame.. it may or not be the game itself though. It could be just a time to gather more publicity. Seeing the London Times article, it looks like we have to put together the advertisements from each newspaper.

Looks like they're toying with us. Doesn't follow the same pattern as the other 2 ads.

Also, a trout is what we refer to things that we already know or have been found that are brought to our attention.

So, they are being very cruel and indeed toying with us.
