It might be Microsoft related, whois from VanishingPointGame.com has an address which has the same info for mozillasucks.com.

Whois for VanishingPointGame.com

Microsoft fires back at IEsucks.com - Source Digg

I'm sorry if someone mentioned this already, i'm not going thru 50 pages+ :) lol

I don't think this is a puzzle thing yet... It just seems to reveal more about something that will happen when the countdown hits zero... We'll just need to wait... (I hate Microsoft, why don't they give us free flight tickets, i want to be there (Bellagio Fountains))

I'll checkout the high quality video.

The red thing she puts into the box is a red dart (not a screwdriver, clearly visible in the hq version)...

Screenshots of the sketches on the paper:

The person that got the grid for immortalize me, did he have anything else? And he must be one of the people who got boxes. I think the letter from inzenity said that there is 4 people total that got the boxes. So that means that there must be 2 more codes for sure out there somewhere. And then theres the Riddle in the file directory so we still got 3 things to work out for sure before the timer runs out ; also im thinking there should be definetly more puzzles down the way to give us a clue to what happens on the 8th.

WOW! There is someone in the room with her.

Check out 00:00:32 (look at the far right).

Slip-up?

=======

- The spot on the map is indeed the center sidewalk in front of the Bellagio fountains

- The 4 unknown objects on the table, are the wrappings of the hotel chocolates

I think that's the cameraman

You are right, there is someone other than the camera man

It's probably a slip-up...

Anyone, got a clue on these?

They seem to contain some formula's. They've got to contain a clue...

the rotated pic... the line in black writen on the bottom... its the same formula as on one of the pages on the vanishing point site..... my guess would be .... getting a high quality pic of that sheet of paper from a video would lead to all clues associated with the whole game

As for the images, two of them resemble watches (the red one looks like a side view and the round one looks like a top view).

And as for the formulas, the top one reads:

dy^3 = ds^3 - dt^3

That remindes me of Laplace transformations

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre-Simon_Laplace

And also a note, the transformations were discovered by Euler.

Sorry that's the best I can do.

Perhaps Inzenity can upload the real video from the USB stick, in it's true WMV format.

i dont know it appears to be differentiation but ive never seen anything like that before, im guessing you know a whole lot more about calculus than me :)

When watchign teh video i noticed a part of the backing music. It occurs at 00:00:11, 00:00:31, 00:00:52, 00:01:12, 00:01:33. Could there be some sort of pattern to this as each is followed by a short pause.

Its probably nothing, just something i noticed.

      I spent a good 15 min today trying to get new Outlook to use my default browser instead of forcing links into Edge. That kinda tactic is shady and it sucks.

      Also try installing an alternative browser on ChromeOS. You have to enable dev mode and run it as a Linux app. Clunky.
