A trailer, yes. An ingenious (IMHO) play on the 2001 concept. If we start seeing black monoliths floating around area51, then it might be time to suit up.

There has been a quite funny and fast moving topic on a board owned by two MOD team members about a prize, also rising the temperature on the board quite a bit the last few days - and lots phpBB team members visiting that board also during the days, it seems evident that some other team members have been involved in those activities, hosting parts of the elements involved in the prize hunt. :D

"Until you will finally know when it's ready!" ..... it did not say this earlier :( It only had the countdown timer, earlier.

:o Maybe they will let us know it's ready at the end of this countdown and then release it immediately?? :lol:

Well, there are some Germans on dev. team, but the behavior seems a bit Danish to me right now. The late and former Danish premier minister Jens Otto Krag once said :
You have one opinion and point of view on a political topic untill you take an other.

Reminds me of Senator John Kerry's run for the presidency in the U.S. in 2004. He said...
I was for the war before I was against it.
Maybe the phpBB team were for releasing gold on the 9th before they were against releasing it on the 9th? :lol: I fear this is yet another conspiracy and an element of misdirection.. :shock:

The sad/funny thing is, over a year ago, I told my friend "Oh, it will be soon. It will come out soon and we can start up the forum again".
