interesting

What the heck is this now? LOL Where did it come from? It's a stage like in theatre in the round, so maybe "All the world's a stage"?? It doesnt do MUCH, - it doesnt do anything except say submit code, what are we supposed to do with that?? LOL

If you look at the jpg title, it's "stage 63". I googled this, and got a few references to cheat codes for video games. .... sounds like a decent trail! I've tried some ideas but no luck yet!

Also a shakespeare reference, I should add!

Since the theme is Photography this week - WHO took the picture, is it from a specific place or person? Could stage 63 be the company that took it? Think, think, think, like Pooh! LOL Micci

NO ONE ANSWERED MY QUESTION - Inure - where did the photo come from, how did it get linked to the PTI game, who saw it and where? LOL Would help narrow it down maybe.

I moused over the image and got the text "a map". Not sure what to do with that either.

Karen, What part of the pic had the msg?? I got nothing when I did that!!!! AND I repeated it very slowly all over the pic at least 3 times! I tried a search and getting nowhere, so I will wait, someone will come up with it. Micci

If you look at the page source it shows "a map" as the alt tag, the words you would see if you didn't load the image itself - used to be good at those back in the days of non-image browsers like Lynx.

Now I'm really late leaving and I feel very, very old to boot! I miss Lynx.....

I found it by using the burp suite spider and proxy, and looking through the generated site map. I found http://picturetheimpossible.com/dev/ci/index.php/achievements/getAchieve... from a POST request, and went up a few directories to get http://picturetheimpossible.com/dev/ci/

I have no idea what we're supposed to do with it, if anything, but I found the same image on a couple other sites:

oops, double post

1964

Designed by Edward A. Andreasen - Summer 1964

what's a burp suite spider?

I KNEW that I had seen that theater before! It looks EXACTLY like the one at Stratford, it would have fit last weeks theme perfectly, but not sure how. Did someone famous from Rochester TAKE the picture? Nothing I have tried as a code works, so just let it hang for a bit, and we can do some research. Micci

I see "ARG Home" in the upper left corner and the page title is "Welcome to ARGHOME." I googled ARG and ARGHOME and found that aside for Argentina and an alcohol rehab-type group, ARG stands for Alternate Reality Game. I tried entering variations on arg and map in the keyword code submissions box. Nothing.

Perhaps the dev folder is used for the development of puzzle ideas, and this one isn't finished yet.

Thanks for the spider info. I had been going to websites & tacking on likely folder & file names to see what's there. Most of the time, I guess wrongly.

Well PTI has set the stage, we've been following the plot, like a good play, there have been many twists and unexpected turns. This image appears to be the gateway into the achievements repository where the codes are kept.

When I searched on Stage 63, I kept coming across references to a Bugs Bunny game. It could be a signpost to the next level of the game (i.e. a map), or it could be a piece of another puzzle page we haven't found yet.

The Watchmaker said he kicked this hornets nest, and that he stirred another, can you find it. If this has something to do with him, then there has to be another way to get here that doesn't involve spider port invader thingees.

In any case, I don't think we're seeing the whole picture here, just a piece.
