This sounds like a classic sort of ARG puzzle. Perhaps other ARG experts could get to the bottom of this.

(By the way, the forums on ourcolony.net have been disbanded. I think it was because of the spamming and the hackers)

The puzzles says that the answer can be found if we read the puzzle closely. Perhaps we need to look at the wording more closely?

No don't worry about it. Guessing the answer can't hurt you.

We work on it on these forums.

No it's not solved. But everyone should keep guessing- it doesn't give the other teams points.

The phrase "your life within an inch" stands out. Maybe the weapon is only an inch big?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I'm positive that it's referring to the Xbox game "Phantom Dust".
Now what weapons are in it?

Never played PD but a review says you're amnesiac and you need aura to use different skills in the game, the higher the cost the more powerful the skill/weapon, anyone here played it?

sounds to me like you guys are thinking to much into it...it says "If you read closely you should know the answer" it doesn't say "if you play phantom dust you should know the answer..."

I think that the answer is in the question. But I'm thinking along crossword lines. I might be waaay off course.
