Unhappy Will we ever get a hint #2?

Well, so far its only been 1 game hint (which was posted 17 days ago), since its been so long since the hint, do you think they plan on putting another one out or are they done?
I was really hoping for a fun Hint this year, really been my 1st time checking for them...

Inevitably. They always drop at least one during the kickoff speeches...

Re: Will we ever get a hint #2?

They've got a little under three weeks to post it--patience may be required.

I mean really, have you ever tried to schedule Dean and the scuba diving trainer in Manchester in winter?

Re: Will we ever get a hint #2?

Probably sometime this week or next week. They'd logically release it around the halfway point between hint #1 and kickoff.

Re: Will we ever get a hint #2?

I bet even the GDC is still trying to figure out the last one =P

But 17 days since the first one, 19 days until Kickoff...tomorrow is looking pretty good for a nice halfway-mark

Re: Will we ever get a hint #2?

Last year, we didn't receive the first game hint until 12-21. The second was released 1-04. This was only 4 days before kickoff. We may have another 2 weeks before our next hint (if there is a second hint).

Re: Will we ever get a hint #2?

Is the lack of a hint a hint in itself? Perhaps they are indicating that we have already figured it out.

Because it's a water game, and we knew it all along.

Re: Will we ever get a hint #2?

Doubt it will be a water game, but always a possibility.

For the game hint #2 it may come soon or it may not it all depends on GDC.

or maybe the whole point is 1.

maybe 1 alliance? maybe 1 goal? perhaps 1 game piece? maybe 1 driver?

Re: Will we ever get a hint #2?

2001 was one alliance, one goal, so they've already done that. 11 years later? Lots of 1's in there.

11 years after 2001
1 year after 2011
1 alliance
1 hint


It's clear.

There will be exactly one water game.

Aha, we solved the hint. This year's game is DEFINITELY NOT A WATER GAME. Trolls defeated for good.
