No no it's ok, you're welcome to share :mrgreen:

wasn't sure you wanted it here so I deleted it (Its on page 2 anyway)

ah thanks!! I actually remembered you had it on the webpage you created, but when I tried to look closer at the clock times, there were a couple I couldn't make up...

 

[poppudaimadochi]

There's a rumored 10th hour on the clocks (thanks Ghumbs for confirming the 9th)... anyone??

Yes there are 10.

I have pics of the entire code-card puzzle assembled in order, with front/back of all code "decipher" cards.

I have made some small progress on the twitter poem, but am hitting some dead ends on finding the "keys".

Sorry I missed your reply; turns out, I found out this picture via Yahoo tonight:

So that makes 10; now on Twitter some guy said he had 11 :shock:

I think I found out what the poem means, thanks to some more tweets that the "Codemaster" posted. Now I just have to make sure I know how to go East on a clock :lol: :lol:

Guys, let me know if you want me to post the list of 10 clock times I have!

 

[schmidtfan20]

yes I would love to see the clock times.

Thanks
Kevin

1:14
1:19
2:20
3:14
3:15
4:00
6:13
7:27
9:42

I have the puzzle put together, all of the decipher cards, all 10 clocks and have analyzed it all + the poem and all subsequent twitter clues in countless ways (think massive spreadsheet) to no avail. Happy to share any insights at this point.

That's the ones I have too, still looking for the rumored 11th hour... There is one later tweet in particular that throws everything I have done through the window though; I know what it is meant to say but I can't connect it to the rest of them :evil:

I'm impressed this has lasted so long. Topps really made it complicated this year compared to the last few that were solved in days.

That or people:

1) can't read in mirrors;

2) don't know how to use twitter;

3) have a problem with East and West.


As far as I'm concerned, I'm troubled with 3) :mrgreen:

Or people don't know how to read an analog clock. :lol:

How can you really tell the minute hands correctly? Maybe my eyes aren't that great, but it looks like guess work.

The difference between 3:14 and 3:15 is the smallest you can have; from there, just infer the other minutes.

I'm really tired of this going nowhere though... Let's see, what did you people understand from the tweet:

Something about the clock hitting 6:17 means I’ve started to crave some Boston baked beans

I have a pretty firm idea of what we should be looking for, but I've failed when I tried it. And forget about birthdays, that's not it...

The date and reference about Boston is certainly there, but I think topps is just trying to still point us to the
backwards clock thing, which we all get. Do you all still think the code has anything to do with the 350 parallel
cards and the symbols? I don't think so and it was sort of infered by topps via a tweet that those cards wern't part
of the solution. hmm

Really? Nobody else sees it?

The parallel cards are bogus, confirmed on Twitter.

sees what?

 

[Kojack84]

They keep hinting about the times on the clock corresponding to birthdays.

But how does 9:42 come into play? 9/42? How can 42 have anything to do with dates?

 

[wickedliquids]

Does anyone know what the times are on the 11th and 12th card clue cards?

 

[poppudaimadochi]

Does anyone know what the times are on the 11th and 12th card clue cards?

Wait, TWELVE??

Saw your tweets, you are pretty close right?


Oh, and it has nothing to do with birthdays: it was just used as an example for the switch between date and time... God, you guys are going to force me to reveal everything I know haha

 

[poppudaimadochi]

Breaking news :lol: :

Fair warning to those who are still on the field: Before the Monday sun rises will more clues be revealed

 

[wheels56]

would love to hear if folks have two other clocks besides the 10 i already listed. here is another fun tidbit I've shared with a few others, but I think is probably meaningless. There is an anagram in the first tweet from the codemaster:

Reginald V. Thorpwell III = I will provide large hint
