It seems that they searched for moonfish instead of Opah. Is there any deeper meaning?

I rarely venture wild guesses, but you may have a point there.

The fact that this is the exact photo that comes up with a moonfish google search is interesting.

So Dave, perhaps playing off the water game and the red herring, included "fish" in the hint for fun. He included moon because this game has a circular illuminated object over the field that will be detected by the new camera.

Have they ever included a camera in the KOP when it was not needed? That camera isn't free - I would wager they wouldn't provide it unless it was going to be used.

Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary

Opah: A large oceanic fish (Lampris quttatus), inhabiting the Atlantic Ocean. It is remarkable for its brilliant colors, which are red, green, and blue, with tints of purple and gold, covered with round silvery spots. Called also king of the herrings.

so, moon, fish, new software, anagrams....

or just the king of red herrings.

on wikipedia they said that the fish highest point lattuded was 34 degrees. around that latitude is Rosewell georgia which is right next to atlanta. theidore roosevelts mother was born in that city. are we gunna use teddy bears?
also the genus name for the opah fish comes from the latin for brilliant/ clear. any ideas?

Nice find is very nice. So basically, this could mean that this is just one king-of-a-herring.

Unless it was somebody here(traceroute isn't being that cooperative...), has anyone considered where the wikipedia change came from? (IP: 208.65.90.13)

I'm betting that the game will be called:
