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. Well this is all we have to go on at the moment... If all else fails we can just brute force it... The x-axis must be between 0-400. So can someone write some code to go through each possibility? If that's not technically possible (fuck if I know!), each person can try 10 then it'll only take 40 people to get through the possibilties. If 498 is indeed a red herring, then weve only wasted 5mins each tbh... The link is this http://teamliquid.net/stage.php?0,498 Where "0" is the number that needs to be changed. To start things off, I just tried 0-20 INCLUSIVE with no result.. :| | ||

Or an event like GSI will be done on a regular basis, also inviting a few foreigners if they want to. Or a proteam consisting of top foreigners... but they'd have to get enough, and there probably aren't that many left who'd want this, are there? | ||

Whats interessting here is, this part: "style="border: 1px solid rgb(3, 49, 8)" If you DONT Select All, all you will see is the following: "border: 1px solid #033108" 498 once again, but does the number 3 mean anything? (You can also just print-screen the page, open it up in mspaint/photoshop, zoom in on the 1px green border around the image and see that it has the RGB-colors 3,49,8 (#033108)) Usefull information? Coincidence? I dont know.. | ||

I thought maybe 498 was a user id, but then i noticed you guys sort your threads with ids...i've tried 498, 4984, 49849 <- doesnt work...but then i tried... nvm, 3498 is nothing | ||

All you are gonna see until that countdown ends is more unspecific clues and more question marks. Kinda like 'Lost', indeed.  Sorry to spoil the fun but don't waste your time... Edit: Somebody probably posted that before but the countdown ends at April 1st 00:00 Korean time. So you'd expect this countdown to be something not-so-tl-specific because they probably would have chosen an American timezone. Then again, they might have not.  | ||
