The Mail Sack is here to save the day!
[url=http://www.bungie.net/News/Blog.aspx?mode=news#cid32192]Let's open the Sack[/url].
As for the challenge, guessing at Bungie Lore won't be enough. We want to see your problem solving mojo. Team up if you will, but a winner is just a guesser without documentation of how they solved the puzzle.
-
It looks like all the odd numbers appear seven times, and all the even numbers are there eight times.

I'm not even going to try this challenge. Not this time, I had a headache last week just by reading the people's post. No. I'm reading the sack, and leaving it as that for this week. I'll have a go when I don't have to smack my head against the wall for a free t-shirt. Good read though.

From the looks of it, the dots on the ends of the columns must mean we need to trace through them to get some sort of phrase from the jumbled numbers and letters.

The number seven appears seven times.

And someone get on the phone, systematically calling every single number we can glean from this.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] T1d3] but what is the half a cuckoo clock have to do with G? The german spelling has a G in it, but as to why they would only show half a clock is strange to me[/quote]Well lets brainstorm. A regular clock represents 12 hours, so it can mean 6AM or 6PM. Don't know just throwing ideas out there.
-
Someone pull out all the letters and numbers, see what that gets us. If we're getting the images, check spellings and -blam!-. Bungie Jumping =/= Bungee Jumping.

What kinda answer are we looking for? One word? a phrase? How will we know when we have it?

The answer is Pfhor. That is all.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Mass Craziness [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] T1d3 [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Mass Craziness Everything looks like it has the letter "g", at least in some way. The file name is interesting, though.[/quote] what kind of puzzle is this and why do you say everything has the letter G in it[/quote] I don't know the kind of puzzle, but as for why "g" [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] DarkestSeptagon The letter G has to mean something. German clock. Bungie jumping General guy Granny smith apple (green apple) That's all I got...[/quote] This. Also, the angel is a girl, the banana phone (Graham Bell). The file name of the picture isn't related to "g", but the last letter of the format of the picture is a "g".[/quote] but what is the half a cuckoo clock have to do with G? The german spelling has a G in it, but as to why they would only show half a clock is strange to me

Well, if we go back to "G", it could be G or 7, as G is the 7th letter of the alphabet. It could be the webmaster, as he's a [u]G[/u]orilla. Though I don't think these are what it is. The four is a bit interesting, as is the filename. [Edited on 09.14.2012 2:25 PM PDT]

Alright, lets start. It's titled 'It all begins with you.' The letter 'U'? We've got a [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=642pVWRTAaQ]Bananaphone,[/url] an apple (IS THE COLOUR IMPORTANT?), I don't recognise the dude, I'm guessing it's an American thing? a G note, I can't make out the next picture, after that it's a fairy? Half a cuckoo clock and a four.

The seventh column symbol also know as the Septa[u][b]g[/u][/b]on. [Edited on 09.14.2012 2:23 PM PDT]
