Incidentally… Matt: How did it go with the Dreamcast?
Chestnuts roasted by DocDragon @ 11/27/2007 4:53 PM
I still have my Sega Dreamcast, one of the most underrated games systems of all time. It is too bad that everyone believed Sony’s lies and held off for the PS2. “Toy Story” quality CGI graphics my ass. So the Dreamcast died a quick, silent death. The funny thing is everyone that owned one, except maybe for Matt, loved theirs.
I need to hook mine up again and catch up with Seaman. We haven’t spoken in years.

I don’t want to turn this into the dreamcast discussion thread but I just can’t go without saying that despite being a great great system, the list of reasons Dreamcast died a quick death is longer than my aunt martha’s erection.

I wanna play too. I watched that eve movie way too much. First is it just me or does the song sound like ave maria? Also obviously I think the title of the clip refers to Christmas Eve. also for those seeing 7s everywhere the clip changes color at the 7second mark.
However the biggest thing I finally realized (and it helps if you watch it with the contrast all the way up) is at the 12 second mark and continuing whenever the camera goes around is in the bottom left you see something under the darker image. Anyway I’m pretty sure that the video is a very grainy extreme closeup of Mista Snowman’s hat. It has the two sides and the bottom archs around the brim. Also if you go back the the 12/2/2003 advent entry you’ll see that the hat sits on his head tilted to the side which is why when the camera moves you can only see one side of his head. I’m like 95% sure on this and everytime I watch it now all I can see is Mista Snowman.
I think it means our old pal will be making a heroic return on christmas eve.

Ooh, excitement. You guys are smart. I managed the wingdings thing before I found this thread, but I’m utterly useless at anagrams, so that would have been me stuck.
On a slightly related note, did anyone here play Thisisnotporn? I was terrible at it, but it was fun to pretend I knew stuff.

Hehehe, sorry Ben & Priss. I’m not a mean person, I’m just an evolutionary bio student who flinches everytime I hear the word “creation”!
As for religion, I am an atheist but I’m not anti-religion perse – as long as they aren’t knocking on my door with pamphlets!!

We got our own thread? Sweet. I have nothing new to contribute yet, except that the /waitwaitwaitwait thing ISN’T a file directory. It’s a page meant to look like one. Some of the language used would not be in a file directory. (7777, etc.)

I have listened to “Sgt Pepper” backwards and I have concluded that the easter bunny is dead.

DaS you GENIUS! Everyone, the “Size” part of the /WaitWaitWaitWait page leads to a mysterious .wav file. I haven’t determined what it says yet, except for it saying “Trust us” at the end.

Yes, credit to DaS.

I can’t believe I caught that but not the audio file…thanx guys!
Chestnuts roasted by DaS @ 11/27/2007 6:07 PM
So, what does our friend Hssxxlllo have to say?
Chestnuts roasted by DocDragon @ 11/27/2007 6:11 PM
So far that only parts that I’ve figured out from the audio is at the 5 second mark they say “we have to get rid of him” at the 50 second mark it says “we will save the universe or save ourselves, trust us”

DocDragon, is there anything more you can tell us about the email you got. I don’t think anyone else got it.

I heard “get rid of him”, I also heard that we’re not monsters part as well. The toughest part is the very start, “It means ….” the last word I can’t make out, its either, birthing, birthday, nothing, or burping.
