I also found the password message, as well as another menu that appears to be extensions for the actual company that is running the ARG.

Any ideas? Any luck with the password? I tried the obvious ones without success.

Yes, that is either a kick in the right direction from someone on the inside or a contributor with lots of insight !

Regardless, I have created a NEW POST !

There are hieroglyphs on the print LOST/Kia ad that ran in Entertainment Weekly (they are on the film canister)-- could this have something to do with Prof. Nussdorf?

Also, when you dial the # on the card and press the star key, you are asked for a password. (this is why there's a STAR next to the phone number) Has anyone cracked it? Could the ad contain the password? (maybe the glyphs?)

JOpnionated posted the In Memoriam video. It's Part 6. It said Libby's last name was "Smith" and Karl's last name was "Martin." It also made me tear up.

Maven made Pop Candy again!

Here's Kate on America's Most Wanted. Seems to me all the videos were saying that Jack's plan did work at least as far the 815ers go. Oceanic is saying, 1st of all that it's 2009 and that they've never had a plane crash in 30 years. Hurley's Mr. Cluck's apparently was never struck by a meteorite and while he did indeed travel to Australia he returned safely and created this Australian inspired meal that costs $4.42. Who's scared of the numbers now? And Kate has still tried to kill her dad, but not by blowing up her mother's house. Instead she blew up (with a cut gas line again) his plumbing office which killed one of Wayne's employees. So Kate is basically where she was before 9/20/04 or so, i.e., on the run for murder and probably with the Marshal chasing her.

The other really interesting thing was the logo for the season. You can see it here. It starts out with those Losties we knew as of S5 were alive and then adds back in those who have died.

Maven, Scoutpost, I've been reading all about your Lost panel experience on the Comic Con blog and I'm so jealous !

Can you send a picture of the pencil ?

2009-07-27T00:30:03.938-04:00

Capcom: That's what I thought. Hurley makes it to LA and is happy being CEO. Kate runs again and is still wanted. And there was no crash to mar Oceanic's perfect record. The bomb did reset time and 815 didn't crash, but goes on to LA as planned.

Or, the bomb-incident-reset actually worked, and 8...

2009-07-26T22:54:42.755-04:00

P.S. One idea that I saw "bandied about" is how the Oceanic stewardess says that the airlines has a perfect flight record, or something to that effect, so does that mean that the commercial is made in another timeline where 815 didn't crash?

Don't throw tomatoes at me, I'm just passing it on. But what the heck, like the entire world doesn't know about the O-6 and their crash now? Something's weird about that.

Yeah, what did that mean, anyone onto something wi...

2009-07-26T22:51:08.640-04:00

Yeah, what did that mean, anyone onto something with that yet? I'm not being pushy honest, I just didn't get to check back online all day until this evening so I don't know if I missed anything happening on the other sites with that. Any speculation anywhere?

:-)

2009-07-26T21:29:05.009-04:00

Well there was that Mysteries of the Universe thing Capcom. I think that's all the mysteries we're going to get except for speculating on what those commercials meant.

2009-07-26T21:12:03.147-04:00

Great job Maven and Scoutpost! :-x

Boohoo, it's all over and no new mystery video like before, right? I was hoping that they'd find some strange archeological thingy that Charlotte found and stashed while she was on her dig. Or, something equally as ridiculous.

:o)

2009-07-26T17:08:12.041-04:00

Hi all! I did get one of those flyers that had the pencil note on the back. Also got a LU pencil handed out at the LOST panel.

I did talk to the guy who is running the LOST auction in May. That's where they were handing out the LU flyers. He did say that he knew it will be a "real" on-line university talking about subjects relating to LOST, but it is not a game!

If I had a trash can I'd delete my comic con post. I have a trash can on my previous post but not that one. hmm

2009-07-26T00:46:11.203-04:00

Hey, gang -

I have modified the post over at TLC to warn about comic con spoilers - so go ahead and post any discussions over there. Those avoiding spoilers have been warned.

Memphish: Thanks for the video links!

2009-07-25T19:12:05.503-04:00

Swan: I thought it was a girl the first time too, and then I thought, "Nah! It should be Faraday." I remebered when Faraday had his hair like this.

Lo and behold on second watching, I saw the hand.

thanks, memphish!!

2009-07-25T18:11:06.132-04:00

I'm not sure what we want to do about the Comic Con panel vis a vis spoilers. Maybe Melissa_Lossa could make a Comic Con post over at TLC or we could make one here where we could discuss what happened and those who want to avoid can avoid. If you want to see some of what happened at the panel, here's the Oceanic Ad that aired. Here's the Mr. Cluck's ad. Here's a Nestor Carbonell interview. Audio is not great.

2009-07-25T17:58:37.021-04:00

hi twinkle! I don't think it was obvious about the person facing the blackboard.. I thought it was a girl because of the hair, but I just looked again and it's a man's arm and hand.. lol! Good call!

2009-07-25T17:44:45.604-04:00

Very exciting day today, Losties! I've read one blow by blow of the panel.

Good catch on DeGroot in the Lost U promo video! No one's mentioned it but it may have been obvious that the person facing the blackboard with the pony tail at the end of the video was Daniel Faraday.

thanks capcom! I'm glad I get that channel!! (but I don't think I can record to my pc... hmm, I should work on that)
