Memories Off on 30th September 99.
Some said he involved in Pepsiman, but I'm not sure what's his contributions there
It looks like we are getting AX news from their twitter tomorrow https://twitter.com/aksysgames/status/613744067881533440
B-b-but the twists!

The Punchline famitsu feature has a box that talks about Ever 17, 999 and VLR.
Sadly I can't read it, probably not too relevant anyway.

Remember those Uchikoshi tweets about dragonflies and emerging? It seems that he posted those on Facebook as well. One interesting thing is that it seeös he also wrote the sentences in Japanese, but maybe those mean a different thing. Can someone proficient in Japanese check that those mean the same thing as the English sentences?
Edit: It seems they pretty much do though a friend I asked said it was more like "grow wings" rather than "emerge", though I guess the meaning is pretty much the same.

Ah, I cant see those on Facebook 
Probably just the plans like NISA did earlier this week.
The box is just a look back at what Famitsu calls the works most representative of Uchikoshi's previous work. The only thing worth noting is that Famitsu mentions that Uchikoshi has gotten high praise by critics for his work overseas and that there's even an active fan-website.
Only skimmed the interview and article, but I don't think there's anything important in there either.

Big day today?
Thanks, most of it was fun and ZE fans are a great group of people, so it's been a pleasure doing the thread. Really wish we could have solved the teaser, but maybe there's still a chance next week.
Welcome on board!
I thought we were never going to be able to talk(until any announcement) about the teaser since the other thread was closed.
Well today is the ending of punchline... anything to tell us Kotaro?

I was ready since the hype slow moving stair chair. Pop me in if you can.
Put me in please?
Also, I can't believe it's almost time. It's been a long wait, damn.

I honestly believed the counter was ticking down by radical 6 time and was going to end in October or something.
I'm just disappointed there wasn't more to do
I had fun trying to work out those anagrams that weren't anagrams. More puzzles or whatever would have been fun with this long a wait. The slow trickle of words and numbers wasn't enough I think. (It was also way too damn long)
But.... here we still all are so they have us hooked I guess

That would have been much more time hahaha.
I have played games all my life and never remember a teaser longer than this one,I believe that it comes from there the idea of 4infinity( I believed that this was never going to end, just 8 days huh)
You can count me in.

I wonder what the last word will be?
Mobile.

50 m
guess that's 50 meters
guess that's 50 meters
That's the first time they added 2 words/numbers in one week.
edit: So they'll either add them more frequently during this last week or that's the last word/number and they want us to have more time to figure out the teaser...

Maybe it is minutes (I do know the common approximation is 50min) but who knows.
What would be 50 m anyway? Also worth nothing that the space between 50 and m might be significant. Also this is the first time we had letters/numbers at the same week.
I wonder if Aksys will ever explain how the teaser could be solved, if it can.
Edit:
True... maybe something will happen in 50 minutes?
I presume we will get several words next week as well.
Yeah but I wonder what the 50 means.
here's the tweet:
They did say that we'd get the AX info today, maybe it will be in 50 m(inutes)?
edit: LA Convention Center is 72 m above sea level, so that's not it.

Meters is normally what I'd think of from 50 m, and googling it agrees with me, with the first result being for the 50 meters sprint event.

Could just mean that the countdown is on the final sprint to the goal.

Makes sense.here's the tweet:

edit: LA Convention Center is 72 m above sea level, so that's not it.
So converted, 50 m are
164.041995 feet (164 feet ½ inch)
and
"The Roman numeral M is often used to indicate one thousand"
anyone have an idea? I looked at altitudes, measurements of Mars/Moon, nothing so far
edit: maybe the scroll direction is important, as in "50 meters to the left"
also, redditor hedrfgsuniozpbwaerfu figured out that the character Ace is a 50 year old (m)ale
and redditor crystola99 is trying to make groups of 5 out of the words, like the ones on the old images A&B

Code:
<h1><marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" scrollamount="3">50 m</marquee></h1>
<h1><marquee behavior="scroll" direction="right" scrollamount="10">34.0419</marquee></h1>
<h1><marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left">coin</marquee></h1>
<div class="ujic-hold ujic_center"> <div class="ujiCountdown ujic-classic" id="ujiCountdown1"></div></div>
<h1><marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" scrollamount="2">-118.2687</marquee></h1>
<h1><marquee behavior="scroll" direction="right" scrollamount="5">firefighter</marquee></h1>
<h1><marquee behavior="scroll" direction="left" scrollamount="7">psychopath</marquee></h1>
<h2><marquee behavior="scroll" direction="right" scrollamount="9">CUT–HERE</marquee></h2>So now we have a scrollamount of 3. Probably doesn't mean anything, but I wonder if we'll be getting the missing numbers too.
That would mean there are still four(!) more words too go.
Edit: Would a default scrollamount be 1? If that's the case then there are only three words left.

50m - 50 metres? What on earth could that mean?
I'd like to be in as well
So (almost) only one week left. Thanks to exams (and Persona 5 trailer) I don't have to think about it constantly. The last streach. I hope we'll be able to reach our dreamed timeline.
New words on the site continue to make no sense
Edit: Wow, I haven't even noticed psychopath was added earlier.
You might be right that the people watching would mostly be Gaf/reddit/their fans on twitter, FB and some other sites, so I'm not sure either. If it's a lot of work to make the chat, we could just watch the official stream and have GAF open at the same time.
Have Aksys announced their plans yet?
Just checked their Twitter and website and not yet. It's not a lot of work but it seems pointless in the longrun.
I think you're right. it's also fun to see all the reactions on twitch when everyone is hyped up during a panel. Hope Aksys don't postpone the announcement of their AX plans again.
