I have no clue what that means. It still sounds like its pointing to a proteam. a proteam made of TESTIES. Thats what I dream of.

If you open ambition2.jpg in notepad, there is alot of code in it, moreso than in the destiny.jpg. Perhaps they hid something in the files? I've seen it done >_>

I don't think stage.php contains anything but a header redirect at the moment.

If indeed this is all about making an international team to play in a show match against a korean team, then the poll regarding what old maps you would want back into the proleague could be apart of it too. Maybe that poll was to see what maps you guys wanted to see being played again.

I doubt they would send anyone to Korea, maybe just a friendly show match to keep interests high. I remember a long time ago Rekrul once commented about how he had told a Korean manager (i think ex manager of hexatron) that it wasn't worth sending foreigners to korea solely just to make a team. He was right, and I'm sure they'd talk to him about it too if they were looking to bring more foreigners to Korea. It'd also be funny if you guys did form a team like that and have Idra all alone in eStro.

We also know that the GSI site is lacking moderation and a community. A merger would be interesting to see. Since TL is so active with coverage, GSI would be getting an entire crew with a merger. But I'm sure they'd have to put the guys on payroll right? They've already spent a million on the GSI...so why not?

450000 * 0.320 Mb = 144,000 Mb

144,000 / 1000 = roughly 144 Gigabyte.

As a devout sceptist, I think a and c are correct. In other words, all this is fake hype for a foreigner team to compete with Koreans. I think this because:

- I don't think Mani's quote is credible. I don't really think he's the type of poster to let slip such a huge development in an angry post v. Incontrol. This also leads me to believe that Incontrol is MAFIA, oops wrong game lying and conspiring with the mods.
- If such a thing was planned by GomTV, why would they allow Teamliquid to announce it or to leak information about it?
-The overwhelming reason is that, as everyone knows, the counter ends on 1 April. Really. It can't be a coincidence.

Whatever the truth is, nice work jimminy and thanks to the mods for putting the effort into the 'ARG'

Mani, you should have read the contract before you signed it with them.

We're up against real money now.

I told you this would be a bad idea.

I can't tell if this is meant as a joke or not. ^-.
Then again, I do suck.

All I know about this thing is that the song text up there - "The road outside my house is paved with good intentions" etc.. - is from Fallout Boy's song Hum Hallelujah. Whatever that means..

I'm 90% sure .php?124,324 you'll never get to see those values in the .php anyway since there is no ?x=124&y=324 ; no variable will have those values binded

A new proteam would not have been such a bad idea... if mani hadn't spoiled it by the comment to inc... Because all this "make a wish" and "ambition" kinda fits into it.. But then again, this is a damn mindgame, and tricking other ppls mind with counterposts and stuff really blows...
Really, play for fun!

So taking 498 as a coordinate, it must be for the y-axis, and the x-coordinate is either where a star is located or it might represent a date in order to stay consistent with the significance of 498 (April 1998). I tried the x-ranges of the two stars near y-498, trying x's 78-85 and 165-172, but got no results. So I turned to dates. But straight copying to 10 years later to 408 or 308 does not fit and 38 and 48 return no new result. Likewise, (10, 498) and (31, 498) have no results and any other obvious date formats do not fit the x-axis. So I think either the first coordinate does not have to do with date or both coordinates do have to do with date and the second one isn't 498.

But it's hard to imagine that 498 isn't the y-axis coordinate so I'd suggest people to brainstorm what a significant x-coordinate could be or why the hell the stars wouldn't work.
