The blogspot has been updated with an 11th clue.

11. Original

(I guess this would fit in with The Original Hot Dog Shop thing)

*Blink* I'm new here, by the way. I love how this whole Our Colony thing intrigues me but drives me insane at the same time and I'm blown away at how so many people can get so many different interpretations of such vague clues. Very Happy

If anybody is actually planning to go on this fool's errand.... Please please please do not go alone. Take somebody with you. Preferably somebody you trust... And who is big with lots of mussels.


totally, i think this could be a really bad idea.

I recommend taking a gun, not just someone big.

Although I would like someone to check it out just to be sure that we are covering everything, it does seem a little shady. I mean this is the first real world encounter situation in the game and it is coming from a site that has never been linked to by the game page. Seems a little fishy, but who knows. Maybe a police escort is in order?

the phone axons were scouted well in advance, this all seems kinda hasty and stuff. so yeah, go with a large group if you're going at all.
and i say don't go.


by large group, i mean tank.

i agree. go in a large group if you go at all. only go if you feel comfortable. if nobody goes I am sure that if it is legit they will set up a similar thing in a completely different part of the country. my guess is this:

x011110000: PN will call to the colonist.

similar to the axons in ilovebees.

ah well, we will either see what happens, or not.

I agree with previous advice: If you decide to go, don't go alone. Make sure that you have at least 3/4 other people with you. And take a cell phone so you can call 911 if you really need to.

And that's three or four people, not three-quarters of a person

This was posted today after "9:39" post at ourcolony blog:
Quote:
we are all members of the same, we hear what we want and see what we choose. we must always strive to find the TRUTH even if presented with lies.

no matter what happens at the important time we must remember what we are sent here to do. each must remember his/her role in the colony for the colony to succeed, if one fails the entire shall fail.


And highlighting below this text reveals:

P.S. Those letters were italized in the blog. When I copied it, only the text copied, so there was some insane italizing going on there...... Smile

The latest post on the blog reads as follows:

finding the pot


There is not enough of the pot to satisfy the hunger of all.

'In a place where you would expect to obtain what you seek to ultimately gain, look for a Geek near the oval sign. A photo will be on the back of his badge. The real one will be the 5 that match.'

us chain promotion

*Blank stare* No idea. The other one labelled "Truth" just below it confuses me as well, but I did notice the italicized "i"s and the hidden word.

Nuts, I'm just a few blocks from the O... if I'd seen this earlier I would have checked it out for boredom's sake.

I'm having lunch there tomorrow so I'll keep an eye out for any ant stuff.

Sounds like an EB or somesuch to me, if this XBox related. Those would be the places to buy an Xbox, and thos people have to wear various badges. Find an oval shaped sign in one, and bingo. Take a pic of the back of his badge, match 5 of them, and something will happen. Maybe...

the lights go out, a shower of fireworks, Ashton Kutcher descends from the ceiling, suspended on holy twine, and distributes free Xbox 360s and copies of Halo 3 (platinum-plated edition, no-less) to everyone in the room.
or, a bemused employee and a barring from the shop.
