Feel free to speculate, if you wish, as to why we’re releasing a game hint on the same day the Mesoamerican Long Count calendar ends, but please keep ‘coincidence’ as one of the explanations you consider.

I think the cumulative mind-blowing that will happen due to this game hint on the 21st will end the world.

Well, according to the film 2012 the world should start flooding on 12/21 making a water game inevitable.

Hmmm... It sounds like they don't actually have a game hint (maybe they don't even have a game!), and are betting that the world will actually end on Dec 21, thus relieving them of the obligation to provide a hint or a game.

Or the game might have something to do with the Long Count Calendar. Maybe something where you have to manipulate meshed gears of some sort to hit specific years in the calendar that correspond to big historical events, and doing so will release a game piece that can be used for something else.

At least we now are sure that the Rick Astley picture was just a red herring, or rather FIRST just rick rolled everyone.

And that's the day I get my wisdom teeth out...dang. Maybe the drugs will help my creativity ::rolleyes:: looks like Hallry was right about when the hint would be released (or the FRC figured his math sounded good) on when to do so

12/21 --> anagram of 2112.

No Cotton Eyed Joe, no Gagnam Style, no Call me Maybe, no Party in the USA.

All Rush, all the time.

Dang! I was really looking forward to finding out what the hint would be. Guess we'll never find out :)

But then we won't be able to spend way too much time going over silly hints! :D
