<div>* A mysterious ad on the [[IE Blog]] leads to a countdown timer<br />
* The [[Countdown]] page asks for keys.<br />
** Several [[Keys]] have been found by using any of five cipher keys, either posted online or sent to bloggers.<br />
** Several keys were solved by using the contents of a [[Puzzle Box Package]], mailed to various people. The contents include a [[Video-Loki|video]].<br />
** These keys have frequently been accompanied by extravagant gifts (laptops, media center computers, etc.) from Loki, the "Enigma Director", and all come from Microsoft's headquarters in Redmond, WA.<br />
* The countdown expires Jan 8th 2007 at 6:30PM PST. A decompile of the Flash app on the main page reveals the location as the fountains in front of the Bellagio. This time and location coincides with the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. It is expected that this is when the game will officially start.<br />
* Several new [[countdowns]] are behind a particular key, listing various cities and times of additional live events.<br />
* A new [[Video-Ignition|video]] from [[lokivanishes]] is discovered on YouTube, giving a new [[Keys|key]].<br />
* Scattered reports are arriving that the [[Microsoft CES Keynote]] includes more details about [[Prizes|prizes.]]<br />
* [http://www.vanishingpointgame.com Registration available] and [http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/prizes.aspx rules and prizes posted]. There's also a [[http://vanishingpointgame.com/faq.htm FAQ]][http://vanishingpointwiki.com/wiki/FAQ] with more hints.<br />
* The rules page lists a secret [[Meta Puzzle]] with an instant-win prize for the first to solve it. The prize is their name inscribed on each of a new AMD processor model to be released soon. Several clues in the puzzles, events, and in the original video could relate to the Meta Puzzle.<br />
* Another [http://www.tweakvista.com/Article39053.aspx clue] from Loki surfaces at the bell desk of The Orleans hotel in Vegas, pointing to the location the event at the Bellagio Fountains.<br />
* All of the events now have GPS coordinates. They are noted here on the [[Countdowns]] page.<br />
* Jan 8th 2007: The [[Las Vegas Event]] has occurred, giving us a [[Video-Las Vegas|Video]] and [[Puzzle Box 1]] has been unlocked. After all the puzzles are solved, Loki gives us a [[Video-loki_time|video: loki_time]] [http://assets.vanishingpointgame.com/loki_time.wmv]. At the end of the video a url is [http://www.tweakvista.com/Article39055.aspx flashed] on the screen pointing to a side contest to get your name printed on AMD Athlon 64 FX processors. Thus begins the [[Meta Puzzle]].<br />
* Jan 13th. 2007: The first of the two multi-city events occurred today, leaving us with [[Puzzle Box 2]], [[SkyType|clues written in the sky]] [http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/skyType.htm ], and a new [[Video-magicweb|video (magicweb)]] after solving them all. ''The White Box Phenomenon'' has been connected to the [[Meta Puzzle]] through the [[Collection Plate]] directory.<br />
*Jan 20th. 2007: The second of the two multi-city events occurs today, leaving us with [[Puzzle Box 3]] and [[Projections|clues projected on buildings]].[http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/projections.htm]<br />
*Solving all of the puzzles gives yet [[Video-loki_eras|another video]]. At its end, the words "/more_answers" flashes. Going to [http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/more_answers http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/more_answers], one finds a tracker of the puzzles completed.<br />
*Jan 27th 2007: A special VIP party is being held for the last clue. To go you must be 18 or older and be able to get to the Seattle, WA event. The invitation was presented on the website.[[Media:SeattleInvite.jpg]] It gave instructions to RSVP via e-mail to vanish@vanishingpointgame.com with "yes" in the body. A reply email was received.[[Media:SeattleInviteReply.JPG]]<br />
*Jan 27th 2007: Identity of Loki: Finally evidence on who loki really is. Real name is Minae Noji. She is an actress at General Hospital. I guess this means everything she told us has a meaning. Here is a link to her myspace profile. http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=54234975<br />
*Jan 27th 2007: The fourth box opens and all puzzles are now available to be solved and all white boxes to be identified.<br />
*After clicking on all the white boxes and returning to the [http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/collectionplate 'collectionplate'] page, you are faced with a scrambled image, which when reassembled gives the coat of arms of the Odessa Oblast.<br />
*After solving all the puzzles and returning to the [http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/more_answers 'more answers'] page, you are faced with a word search puzzle. When all the words are found, only 6B617261 is left. Screenshots [[Media:cross1.jpg]], [[Media:cross2.jpg]], [[Media:cross3.jpg]], [[Media:cross4.jpg]]<br />
*At the end of the video for solving puzzle box four the link [http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/roamingroaming '/roamingroaming'] is given. The page is a clue to some place if you follow the distances from an unknown source. The word "TANLI" is at the bottom of the page, which I assume is "LATIN". Maybe the starting place is ROME?<br />
*The video for solving puzzle box four asks you to visit [http://www.vanishingpointgame.com/lokiv '/lokiv']. This provides a video for the final part of the meta puzzle. Four Lokis sit in four directors' chairs and ask you to find their name(s). See [[lokiv]] for further information.<br />
* Jan 29th 2007: New video appeared on Soapbox. It is a release video for Windows Vista that also shows Loki's office at Microsoft headquarters. [http://www.geocities.com/xtwilightx89/ http://www.geocities.com/xtwilightx89]<br />
*UPDATE!! The roamingroaming page has been updated to say "Mystery Spot, CA". Previously the 'CA' wasn't there. Here is the website of the mystery spot. [http://www.mysteryspot.com Mystery Spot]<br />
*Use Google EARTH! I have found that all the miles are Islands...<br />
*Since these are are Islands, could TANLI then be the navigation waypoint of off Tunisia...<br />
http://www.fallingrain.com/waypoint/TS/TANLI.html<br />
*The game is over!<br />
*The final answer to the Meta Puzzle is "Lorelei, Odessa, Kara, Ivy" ...if you type this in you will then get a message from LOKI about the game.<br />
You are not the first to guess our identity, but because you solved our puzzle, we want to tell you our secret.<br />
<br />
There is no such person as Loki—or rather, she is four sisters who decided to be one extraordinary person. <br />
<br />
Each of us has a unique talent: <br />
<br />
Lorelei is our tinkerer. Clocks and counting, space and time: she is our genius. <br />
<br />
Odessa is our performer, our actress and magician, the girl we send in to dazzle and charm. Odessa goes to meetings: Loki gets promoted. It’s very convenient. <br />
<br />
Kara is our reader. With a love of history and a photographic memory, she gives us access to any fact, figure, or event at a moment’s notice.<br />
<br />
Ivy is our spy. She’s the girl you don’t notice, the face you don’t remember, and vanishing is what she does best. Ivy has gotten us out of more than one impossible situation.<br />
<br />
Together, we have presented L.O.K.I. to the world. Our mask and super-hero, LOKI has allowed us each to be bigger than ourselves.<br />
<br />
When we heard Microsoft and AMD were looking to give extraordinary prizes to exceptional people, we knew LOKI could never find a more perfect job. This, Odessa said, would be a trick we could never top. O, how we wanted this job! (And what clever, unfair, underhanded things we did to the other applicants to make sure we got it! But that’s another story.) And once we got the job, we all agreed that Loki’s greatest triumph would be her last.<br />
<br />
We created the Vanishing Point to reward the smartest minds (and communities) on the planet – and still we underestimated you. We used our smarts and our guile, not to mention money and connections and countless hours of time—and still you humbled us. We knew the terrain and barely gave you a map—and that didn’t stop you. We built puzzles that should have taken you days and you solved them in hours. <br />
<br />
“Loki” is a genius: but you were far more brilliant. You were thought made fire. You were lightning.<br />
<br />
Thank you for your work, your talent, and your dedication. It has been a privilege to witness: an honor and a delight.<br />
<br />
For each of us to live, Loki had to die. Thank you, thank you beyond words for taking her to the Vanishing Point.<br />
<br />
Lorelei<br />
Odessa<br />
Kara<br />
Ivy<br />
<br />
<br />
*WHOS GOING TO WIN??? The Grand Prize drawing was today, Jan 31st, and the winner will be contacted tommorow! On tommorow, February 1st, the 1st-4th prizes will be drawn, and winners will be contacted in the following days... Good luck everyone! If a regular on this site wins, they should post their success story!</div>Maddogzahttps://vanishingpointwiki.com/w/index.php?title=User_talk:SVNBob&diff=3485User talk:SVNBob2007-01-31T17:01:35Z<p>Maddogza: New page: You stupid fool SVN, whats wrong with you?

ANSWER: '''Monkeys at the palace'''<br />
</spoiler><br />
<br />
<spoiler><br />
Not the answer yet, but I thought I'd cross post some of the more important information from the Neowin forums:<br />
<br />
The answer seems to be related to Agatha Christie as all the pictures match a form of murder in her books:<br />
<br />
*Ukulele String 1/8 The Bird with the Broken Wing' (short story in The Mysterious Mr. Quin)<br />
*Marble Clock 1/11/47 "And Then there Were None";<br />
*Apple Bobbing Tub 7/10/17 "Halloween Party"<br />
*Dagger 6/4/16 "Murder on the Orient Express"<br />
*Raincoat Belt 14/13/62 "Three Blind Mice"<br />
*Crowbar 5/39/57 "Witness for the Prosecution"<br />
*Tennis Racquet 3/2/11/7 ("Towards Zero"); "Murder at the Vicarage"<br />
*Golf Club 1/4/6 ("The Murder on the Links")<br />
*Chocolate 9/14/2 "The Chocolate Box"<br />
*Nylon Stocking 1/6/40 "A Pocket Full of Rye"<br />
*Fire 32/28 "The Mysterious Affair at Styles" <br />
<br />
Also, using the colors of the fireworks, you can decifer 13124 into 'right' therefore, the clue is "A DEATH CHASE, AM I RIGHT?"<br />
<br />
Here's me hoping this spurs someone to think of the answer.<br />
<br />
It's worth noting that the clue anagrams to "DAME AGATHA CHRISTIE" with an "H" leftover.<br />

Imagine looking straight down on a city with tall buildings. Create a colored 3D chart. Each of the numbers represent height in units. Once the chart is created, rotate it 90 degrees (so the tops of the buildings are moving away from you). You should see an image similar to the following: [note that this only works when you have filled in the blank squares with numbers, which presumably came from the fireworks clue - e.g the yellow squares in the third to sixth columns need 7s in them]<br />

<br />
Opening the safe shows the question "How many pesos?"<br />
The bag in front has 1700 on it and there are 11 bags in the safe.<br />
1700*11=18700<br />
