Bubsicle Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Is 6b617261 half of a UTM coordinate? Latin for "North" is Borea so the line of latitude would be 6N 617 261. I don't know how to interpret UTMs unfortunately. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/533452-puzzle-box-4/page/54/#findComment-588268838 Share on other sites More sharing options...

garykagan Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 lets take a step back. Event 4 video DOWN The video you get in puzzle 4 is LEFT There are no more clues after the video you get in puzzle 4 for directions. Why is everyone saying RIGHT is the last move? I must have missed something - eh? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/533452-puzzle-box-4/page/54/#findComment-588268843 Share on other sites More sharing options...
boazer Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 just made my final guess I would think it would be the new AMD Quad FX cpu ... the way I look at it is everything for Microsoft leads up to windows vista so why not all amd's hype lead up to there new line of cpu's that take advantage of the latest enhancements in Windows? Vista I guess its a shot in the dark but its worth a try everthing in the meta puzzles had alot to do with 4's so why not quad core AMD Quad FX Platform with Dual Socket Direct Connect Architecture Redefines High-End Computing for Megatasking Enthusiasts — Enthusiast Platform Powered by AMD Athlon™ 64 FX-70 series Processors Ushers in Era of Multicore-Enabled Megatasking — SUNNYVALE, CALIF. — Nov. 30, 2006 — Charting another industry first for computing enthusiasts, AMD (NYSE: AMD) today announced the AMD Quad FX Platform with Dual Socket Direct Connect (DSDC) Architecture, the first dual-socket, multi-core desktop PC platform designed to take advantage of the latest enhancements in Windows?

JohnY79 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 um interesting on the video ware she asks what her name is.. when it starts she says abra kadabra.. say the silobles out load and move a person each siloble.. you will end up with the first loki that speaks.. secondly 1 has leggs crossed a different way to the others and one has a wond.. one a book one a watch and the other nothing... not sure if this is relevent..anyways i have not come up with much for the name yet.. guess even if i did get it right i wouldnt no for a few days anyway.. shame... good luck on the puzzels anyway guys and sorry about spelling.. Thing is were probably not going to know whether we are right until the winner is announced etc, personally I have already entered an answer (though it's probably not right!), maybe if we all entered different but possible solutions one of us would win? or maybe someone already has and we just don't know it yet! Whatever happens I really hope it's a Neowinian so good luck all!! And if it is one of us is lucky enough to win it would be great if the inscription was something like.... <username> Neowin ...or maybe just... Neowin That way it would reflect the group effort made by all to solve the puzzles etc rather than just being personal. Anyway, once again good luck everyone! :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/533452-puzzle-box-4/page/54/#findComment-588268853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
remix17 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I just have a question for everyone. Let's say someone actually solves the thing. Who's gonna input the answer? I mean all it takes is for the first one to get there. This is no longer just a team effort. This is a race.

Tai114 Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 If you draw out r,u,r,d,l,d,l,d,r in inch intervals it spells 20.Anyone notice this? Don't forget the last down from the last video, the far right loki does the last one.

Dogga Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Taking others suggestions from before, I started thinking that "Mystery Spot" could be the name of an actual place... Remember the list of Loki's flights from one of the earlier weeks? Her final flight led to San Jose, Calif (AMD building, remember?) There is a place called "Mystery Spot" in Santa Cruz, which is very close to San Jose... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mystery_Spot A connection perhaps?

Dogga Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Just an observation. Why does it say "what, is, my, name" as oppose to "what is my name?" Also, why is there no question mark at the end? It seems like there would be one there if it really was a question... it's almost like she's "telling" us instead of "asking" us. Maybe the words are clues/keys to the bigger picture.

boazer Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I heard someone mention that if you started at lorelei with the directions you ended up in odessa maybe they figured we wouldnt figure out the coat of arms so they led us to odassa to find the meaning behind it... that might be all there is to the directions but you never know Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/533452-puzzle-box-4/page/54/#findComment-588268896 Share on other sites More sharing options...

confusio Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Perhaps lastname, middle, middle, first? I still believe that is not a person's name what is she is asking for, it's a four word thing. We know that Loki is just one character but represented by four sisters, and we have couple of references to Lorelei/Loreley Kitsune. I thinking about something like "The Black Missing Rock" just a thought Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/533452-puzzle-box-4/page/54/#findComment-588268911 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Veteran Posted January 28, 2007 Veteran Share Posted January 28, 2007 If a Neowinian wins this, it would be great to include 'Neowin & Unfiction" on the inscription. Without the help of these two communities, it's unlikely you would have won. So let's be fair if someone here does win.
