OK folks this is a weird one, and kind of an expeiment but I need anyone who is a good games player (or who likes playing games and is up for a challenge) to sign up to this thing. The URL is: http://www.ourcolony.netWhen you get there, type 'play' into the text field and hit enter. Then select Join Colony. Enter 44594429 and hit enter. Then fill out the form. This seems to be a team game and we can't progress until there are 6 of us. There's just one (me) so far so first 5 to join are in! I have no idea what this is about but it's alleged to be some kind of viral marketing scheme (nothing to do with computer viruses, don't worry) to promote X Box 2, or X Box 360 as it will apparently be known as. Now everybody knows I'm not the biggest X Box fan but this seems interesting to me. Give it a go!

Cool! Actually what it says is "grow your colony to 5 to take the next step". Now that doesn't nesecarrily mean as I first thought it would that 5 is the maximum so everyone join up! We get more points the more people who join

I'm in. First puzzle is: XYXXXY Y's are in yellow, X's are in blue I thought it may have to do with chromazomes "male female male" but it didn't work. Any ideas?

Give it a go!
Now that I read Mak's first post again, it must have something to do with X box.

Some sort of cheat code? Those X (blue) and Y (yellow) buttons are on the X Box controller. But code for what game?

I don't have an x box. I have no idea about the buttons or anything. Emma's- for some reason it changes to XBrick if you don't put a space between.

I think we've all arrived at a very special place. Spiritually, acumenically, grammatically.
