MacHeist3... start!
Feb. 6th, 2009 07:52 pmMacHeist 3 was supposed to start a few days ago, by my calculations, but the completed image from the MacHeist "trial" (this is it almost finished; you can still see the rough shape) took some time to decode. In the meantime, the site got a complete overhaul with some interesting clues as the Mainframe processed everything.
Some of the clues included the "Lost" numbers (4 18 15 16 23 42), a quote from "House" ("It's not Lupus!"), and a Back to the Future II quote: "Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads." The site had a brief blackout in which an image called omgondola.jpg appeared, featuring a child sliding down a slide in a playground.
When the site came back up again, there was a briefing from Sophia talking about a new package from The Source... a package containing a box with no keyhole and a key whose head mysteriously matched the circle/spiral shape of the completed image on the Mainframe.
