So, we are supposed to find the Artifact Location page now that Server 4 is open... all the other servers are open... and you're saying this new page has nothing to do with the one remaining server? I don't understand. What do you think the page is for?

I think the text on that page will stop to reveal a location in each city to either lead us to the next clue or some sort of finale.

I feel really bad for those who don't live in or near those cities tho.

What about this scrolling symbols in right of "New York" "Los Angeles" and "Seattle".

Couldn't it be Base64? I couldn't find something but probably you will...

Yeah its random Txt, its still early but I think it has 10 digits each?

Also http://www.akqa-staging.com/ Is a very plain site with 3 sections you can highlight but have nothing there....

Also has the address for

http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd

But I think thats just HTML stuff maybe I'm wrong..

Is AKQA even important??

in the .swf file I think.
Well, okay, but how were we supposed to get the password, i.e., not by brute-forcing the Flash file? I feel like there's still a step missing in all this.

From what I understood, the "unknown" image is of the Boomerang Nebula, thus the password for the hidden page... now how we were supposed to find that page I have no clue.
