... I still can't let the "reset reality" go... The Nintendo 64 was code named project Reality. and it had a reset button... I am currently searching for a release date. Sorry, this isn't really leading anywhere, just throwing ideas out there.

Someone...possibly the guy two posts above this poste something about a microsoft E3 site. It had a flash intro containing the phrase reset reality so I don't think its a nintendo thing and almost definatley a microsoft thing.

possibly microsoft's way of saying screw nintendo? (I guess it would say reset revolution though) maybe this is simply microsofts new tagline for the new box.

understood. I'll quit looking for hiden meaning in the "reality" part. after more reflection, I think the ICW thing might be a great starting place

just to clarify, i meant IC V V ... but ICW could be something as well.

I just thought of something else, what if 512 is relating to the MTV special of May 12th. Then maybe there's no challenge because we're suppose to watch something that happens on MTV at 5:12 today?

5:12 GMT? are we even sure what time zone the ourcolony site is set for? I Don't think this site has the resources to be in colaboration with MTV. At most I think it is more privately owned. I don't think the site is working with microsoft or any TV networks. I've spent the last 20 minutes scouring aaci.org, and the only thing I found is that both sites accept donations.

Those dots that appear while the flash is loading look a lot like the background at www.ourcolony.net ... Cool

AACI Also stands for a few other things

Alliance Atlantis Communications Inc
Association of Americans & Canadians in Israel

though since it clearly says aaci.org on the sheet i doubt those are of nay importance

Anyone else notice the arrow on the left fan pointing towards the aaci thing. That arrow is most definatly photoshopped in. They used the burn tool, at around 50% (it's default setting) and simple drew an arrow. Theres no reason it'd be darker there since its not recessed into the plastic, or of a different material.

Also now that I look at it the 0 and 4 look photoshopped too. The 4 is a better job, but the 0 just looks very very fake. Especially when you zoom in and realize it doesn't have as many jpeg artifacts on it since it was added after the original photo was taken.

Musings

Here are my musings for the day:

11/27/98 - I wondered about the dreamcast thing, since sega and microsoft are buddy buddy

11:27 '98 - was going to check the human clock 11:27 am and pm and see if there are any hits or references to 1998

Added 512SPLATmsn.com and 512SPLATmicrosoft.com to my messenger contacts, will see if they log in at some point

Found this to be the most interesting:

www.reset-reality.net - it is kind of cryptic - was registered awhile ago, but updated Feb'05 and set to expire June '05

Yeah I noticed that yesterday when they were trying to figure out the puzzle. I didn't know if it had any relevance though, but at least i'm not the only one that noticed it.
