New challenge up on the site.  There's an image of a bar-graph with cones instead of bars, with a bit of emphasis at the indicator for 21.  If you look at it, the value for the circle inside that cone is at about 6 and the peak is at 25.

ok i am looking at it. any ideas yet? <

[JELLY]

What do you think "have you checked the clock" mean? Isn't there usually a post time for when gamem8ker puts up a challenge? <

Heh I was looking at it and I noticed that 21 has the "gost cone" and the other cone that size was 7 so it got me to thinking about the hitchickers guide to the galaxy (the book even though I've seen the movie I was more thinking of the book) and in that the computer deep thought says the answer to life the universe and everything is 42 and 21x2 = 42  and 7 goes into 42 6 times

(Btw just a reminder the company that made these ARG is called 4ourty 2wo entertainment) but I am probably just blowing smoke

ok, let's think simple....

21 on the bottom graph and 10 on the side graph...

anything happening 21 days from now at 10pm??

21 and 10 are the numbers, what do they mean??  it says check the clock, which is at about 15??? <

[POG_Flexor]

The three highest marks on the graph are at 7(25), 14(21), and 21(7->25), the number in parentheses, of course, being the value at that x-coordinate.

Also, at 17 and 25, if you trace a line to the left from the center of the conic section, it appears that the value of each is -1.

Another potentially useless thought. <

There might be a reason for the shadows as well.Because of the sillouette at first i was thinking it was something to do with a celestrial body like the moon.Maybe reading to deep but that shadow with a ciecle reminds me of an eclipse. <

Ok well their are 26 cones and their are 26 letters in teh alphabet.  Could that lead to anything. <

everything has been so simple up to this point, atleast in retrospect.  I think we need to think in more simple terms.    the clock is at 12:19:55, and the clue is, "have you checked the clock"  

the graph shows a cone with a ball in it at 21 and between 5-10..

how do the two fit together?

well

21=U
6=F

I dont think the clock thing is a clue it was their yesterday when i looked at the site.   I also heard that the clock is counting down to e3 or something like that.

so i dont think that has a corrilation.

i could always b wrong though

The graph doesn't appear to be terribly accurate, and I still contend that the lower value of x=21 could be 6, in which case the difference 25-6=19, and if you look back at this post, you'll see that TeamXbox was in 21st place, but gained 19 places when all of those points were awarded, raising them to number 2.

EDIT: does anyone know if that team has a forum?  And if they do, where is it?

well guys......remember that picture with the clock and the pipes at the exit door? well the clock had the minute hand at 12 and the hour hand at 5. turn that into a date and you have 5/12, or may 12th. the clock on ourcolony.net is a countdown to may 12th. <
