I hope its updated frequently! how fustrating that you can't subscribe yet!
I think its safe to assume that Sente has some how transferred the PC Sentinal into HTML, as it would seem that some if not all of the people who are not linked with the academy seem to be dubious even of earths existance!! Although in the video (www.perplexcity.com) It does talk about the similarities between our cultures!! Who can be sure of anything yet?

and I know its probably irrelevent but £1 stirling = 150 Perplex city Lecks? maybe?

And by the way PCBC (the advertised bank) is defo not at PCBC.com Wink

Anyone noticed that the background of the banner is of the postcard we got. If Sente sent the postcard then the spec that he is maybe running or forwarding the sitte could be on the mark.



EDIT: I also just noticed another obvious link, The site is called the (Sent)inel and our guy is called Sente too Wink

where the LECK did you get that from? Wink approximated from the prices of subscriptions? Smile
anyway, about registering and subscriptions, see my post on the first page of this thread, i think that explains it all.
and no, i don't think that the pm-s will have us spend our money on Lecks- come on, where do you want to get exchange? i mean - go into the bank, and say "Hi, could you change me some Lecks?" ?! and again - we didn't have to spend our money on the pm-s. papers, alright [we hardly bought them, anyway], but that wouldn't wander into the pms' pockets. and this money certainly would. no. i think we won't need to get Lecks. there'll have to be some other way.

I can see it now you've said it!!. It would then make sence that it is indeed being forwarded by our pal sente, but if that was the case, why hasn't he given us subscribers privilages? lol. We also have to look at the possibility though that it is mearly very famous artwork and coinsidently is used as the sentinals banner!

Reading the sports coverage link from the front page, I think that sports in Perplex City are mental challenges - puzzles or something like that. The guy that has been suspended "did place fifth in the Conundrum category", and someone else had been caught using "cognitive enhancement markers".

I think we may well be able to get our hands on some lecks later on by competing and winning some prize money.

I wonder if caffine is banned!

Innes ran the paper at a loss for the first 10 years of production, mainly owning to the large-scale puzzle contests he personally bankrolled

This kind of explains why Sente and the others are pretty open to the fact its a arg,,
It would appear the people of Perplex City are greatly impressed by puzzles and games (hence a whole section on the sentinel) and believes we are aswell. Openly using the puzzle/game method to use us to help find the cube is pretty neat Smile

Sente

Maybe Sente has given us access to only this copy of the sentinal because he is involved in the main head line and he wants us to see the urgency of the situation, which would explain why its so restricted! Maybe all the information he intends us to have is right in front of our eyes!!

How do cookies work? If the key is based on a cookie, is it possible to try and create a cookie to fool the site into recognising us? I don't know much about them so sorry if this is totally out of the window.
