Adis Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 BTW the video is actually in the flv format, so you can directly upload it. But enough of the videos shouldn't we be thinking of the puzzles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zyphrax Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 ok, ****ty quality video is now uploading to YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXM5-6L4VwA Might try to fix it to better quality later, but first dinner :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxblast Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 I don't think that really matters, nothing is left to chance in these things. We saw it (the video), we grabbed it, we reposted it. The more people exposed to this the better. We are needed to spread the word and make it bigger ;) Also, remember that the people who received the Microsoft Puzzle boxes were asked to find the others like them. So by putting the info out for everyone to see, we are helping in that sense. True. okies have we got a list of all the people who have got these puzzle boxes? eg fullnames, work places, connections ect. What is the link to the cat image again. the one on the site and the one on the forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KGBrAm Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Ah! Thank you simsie! I'll keep digging around in the picture. It may have been altered in size/format due to imageshack. So far, either a password is required or nothing is in the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emale_tart Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Right ... The project/main competition starting on January 8th is entitled Loki... This is currently the Pre-Awareness phase... a warm-up if you will to the main action and is used to get everyone together and spread the word about the site... If you remember ILOVEBEE's then you will remember that too had a pre-awareness and infact counted down to "self-awareness" a play on the fact. I think that as far as it goes just now - all the puzzles are solved BUT there is still so much more to assertain that WILL help us in the next stage. Basically what I'm saying is keep up the brilliant work but don't be expecting any more pat's on the back from websites etc until the 8th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkellner Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Do you think this could have anything to do with this puzzle? Perspective drawing is a drawing of a figure which is made to look as it would in the real world. To achieve this illusion, receding parallel lines are drawn to converge at a point on the horizon called the vanishing point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeschylus Maximus Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 If this is really just a preparation stage I think we need to organize and get as much info as possible on what we know about the puzzle and everything in it info about Loki etc. all the background information and just info that might relate to the subject. Also Could any1 post a detailed outline of how they solved each of the puzzles especially the sudoku puzzles and when was each of the ciphers used. If we get all this info I can then make an organized document that can help us in solving later puzzles. Also when the timer hits zero, everyone will understand how everything was solved and will be able to solve the new puzzles faster. So can sum1 start posting on how exactly each of the puzzles were solved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adis Posted December 24, 2006 Share Posted December 24, 2006 Well the sudoku puzzle was solved like this: -ignoring all the letter and using the arrows as greater than and lower than, you write in the numbers using pure logic -using the key at the bottom of the page do this: go from left to right and from top to bottom (like reading) one big box at a time, and take the number in the code corresponding to the box you're at. Using the numbers found in the previous step you find the right letter. I hope you get the picture, I'm not very good at explaining things.
