Edit: Seems to be the same code ... *phew* ... don't scare me like that! Comes up correct everytime I enter it. Maybe you had an extra space at the end after copy pasting it in?edit on 15/4/2011 by phoenix_zephyr because: (no reason given)

I'm not sure. I've entered what I thought was right, it came up correct but we've had no confirmation from SO or anyone. So I wonder if a) I did it wrong or b) there's more I missed? or (as Rising Against pointed out to me) c) SO is still having net issues?

He said in the other game post he was having internet issues and I'm sure he has a lot going on when it is working...
I sent you a U2U FYI. (Sometimes with the new U2U alert it is easy to miss)

Oh I definitely agree that it should continue though perhaps with a different method of gaining the code or shorter codes as:
a) it gets to be a strain on the eyes after a while
b) even with a good connection it timed out on me twice and I missed a couple of letters the first time, those with poorer connections would have an unfair disadvantage

Indeed, much love to bigfatfurrytexan for that, I would never have got it as it's a hoax I've never heard of. I will probably have a read up of it later
It was only after trying a few different possible things (including Caesar cipher and anagrams) that I wondered if I was thinking too complex. I have a habit of seeing if words are written backwards and then tried every other letter, when it started to make some sense, I went with it. Now my eyes hurt *shakes fist*
Good Job All

I have to many posts to really be called a "lurker", but if it is interesting it is not often that it passes my attention. Serpo was outstanding when it began, but you knew it had to be a hoax.
Regardless, it is how Project Camelot got their start, I believe (or, at least what gave them some notoriety). And Bill and Kerry still like to pretend that it isn't a hoax.
