The purpose of this page is to provide a collection of observations that people have made about the stone. Basically the things that appear on this page don't merit their own separate page, so they will go into this melting pot of information. When a group of information gets large enough to merit a page, I will transfer it over to another page.

If you have anything that you think should be added here, email me... - MiCTLaN (redirected to dswtan)

I'll do my best to keep this organized......yeah, right.

Web Page Stuff...

There are a few pages that show off the sense of humor of the web designers who made the stone page, if you try to snoop around in directories you will come across a few 'warning pages'. For instance: http://enigma.thestone.net/private/ I would recommend taking a close look at this one... (it includes an interesting thought)

Go into 'find your other' and enter the symbols 236789 (see the Symbols page for an explanation of the symbols). You will get a huge list of people with this stone. I was told this is called the 'Mundane Stone'. It is the Stone used in advertisements and such.

Another interesting observation... on the 'tour' page there is an image that is supposedly of a puzzle that we have not seen at this point. See this image. The image contains the following greek letters: Nu, Omicron, Tau, Alpha, Rho, Epsilon, Alpha, Lambda, Pi, Upsilon, Zeta, Zeta, Lambda, Epsilon. Spell it out and it says 'not a real puzzle'.

I've also come across a few interesting images by poking around on the Stone servers. See stoneinhand and splash2.

And this image which might lead us to believe that we are just at the beginning indeed.

Just about everyone has heard about the day that the 'Immediate lit up', here is a bit of what it looked like... The Full Immediate

The Evolution of the Stones...

It seems that there are many different kinds of stones out there made up of different shapes and materials. Here are a few of them. If you have a stone that is different, please let me know.

There is also at least three different packaging designs, one of which is marked 'Chronos Edition'. Click images for enlarged versions...

Here are some ads that have appeared in various formats. The second Games ad is similar to the first, but has some additions that you might recognize. I've brightened it to make the detail easier to pick out. Click to see a larger version.
