I still can't get the clue to come up.  Do we need to keep adding new members to get new clues?

Right, well done Mark, onto the next challenge tomorrow. It looks like someone on our team will be able to see the challenge (in this case Dawn/ MorningAngel) whilst someone else is able to input the answer (in this case Mark).

Has everyone got the gap to put the answer in and press solve.  I am only checking as I will feel horrible if all you clever people solve this and I have gone to bed and am the only one who can input it!

I'll print out the logo and shoot and post some photos this weekend.  That's about all I can do if the questions are going to be about games.

I think only a handful of us see it and the other of us can enter the answer or something like that. And in some occasions one or two of us sit it out. I was "out" on the last one.

CIan makes an excellent point, we looked up any nuclear accidents in 1979 (the rods being the clue) and came up with Three Mile Island in Philly, USA....

What do you reckon?

Yes I think so - I've tried those two, so we need to think again  Undecided

I think a lot of this game will rely on your googling skills!
 Make as many guesses as you can! I'm pretty sure it doesn't count against us.

In 79, two rods can save the family.

Sounds like a tag line from a movie to me.  Maybe it refers to 2 lightsabers saving the Jedi order.  Or the Skywalker's.  Grin

Robotron.

The game is set 79 years from now, 2084, and uses 2 joysticks. Man that's obscure!

New clue.  It's a photo
http://www.ourcolony.net/images/gamem8ker/112798.jpg
It looks like the inside of a computer and the white marks could be one of those paper computer card thingys.  I hope the photo showed up.

The top part looks like it has web address  aaci.org
I looked it up and It's some kind of Asian American group.  Not sure what it has to do with hte clue.

I've been staring at that photo for 5 minutes now during which time I've consumed virtually an entire tub of Ben & Jerry's Oatmeal Cookie Chunk ice cream.  And now I feel sick  Tongue

lol

I have always been convinced computer screens would harm us in some way, and now we've lost GeekBoy to the evils of a monitor Wink

However, we won't lose any more on this challenge!

Squash the photo together to make all those white bits into a bar code - the computer insides in the background are a red herring.

So then when you have that squashed image a barcode emerges,  you can scan the barcode and once you do this you have a telephone number.

Call the telephone number and you are told "Reset Reality"

And that's the answer!

Jeez!!

Well I guess it would have helped if I'd joined the colony first  Grin

Anyway, what's "reset reality" got to do with computer games?  And where do you get the explanation from?  It just says the problem has already been solved when I log in.

I'm confuzzed  Huh
