It Begins....

Seems like a good theory. Today they announced the a7xvision app and supposedly if you use it to take a picture of the deathbat it reveals this website:

In other news, CHACOTACO IS BACK!!!!!

Enter "7650" on the website I posted before and it reveals a clock that points to 5:00. Still confused lol

!! Now we need Andy back, and all the people from chapter-four forums (minus sycthe... that dude was a douche rofl)

I put in that code but didn't do anything for me =(

Same for me the code doesn't work, are you sure it is the right one Justin? Or maybe take a screenshot of the clock if you can

It's 7560 sorry guys!

Justin wrote:It's 7560 sorry guys!

BRILLIANT!

ha, now to speculate

Wonder if it has something to do with that app they released... ANyone have a droid? try scanning that page. If I had one I would

Oh my god! You are a genius
"The Seventh Lair" ? The writing is really Iron Maidenish haha! Well 5 o'clock, I'm waiting then!

Chacotaco please do speculate. I love reading tons of theories!

EDIT : Or... Could the clock indicate a date? If it does then maybe May 12th... Speculations, speculations...

haha, yes speculating is always fun!

You might be right with May 12th... maybe a preview of a new song? would be awesome

Plus I wonder what significance the name "the seventh lair" holds? Maybe that is a new song title? album name? Just a random name to F with us?

The seventh lair. May be a coincidence but this is their 7th album counting diamonds in the rough

Figured I would screw around with "view source" since you can sometimes find stuff. By following certain links and connecting them I found this:
http://seventhlair.com/site/assets/images/rollout/clock_timer.png

A slightly different version of the clock we see so far

Nothing too major, but yea the clock is meant to show a timer at some point it looks like. Right now it's just empty space where the countdown would go, though that's probably because I only found an image file, there may be a flash type asset somewhere in there. Either way, it's somewhat interesting.

Ohhhh just figured out where the code came from. This is crazy.

Code:

date_markers:            [{"id":1,"label":"Project Start","date":0,"date_mode":"relative","timestamp":1364774400},{"id":2,"label":"Countdown Start","date":3470400,"date_mode":"relative","timestamp":1368244800},{"id":3,"label":"Countdown End","date":3556800,"date_mode":"relative","timestamp":1368331200}],
                           use_generated_cache_json:   true

It looks like you could be right, this is the source code for the web page and at some point we can read "Countdown Start" and "Countdown End", followed by numbers I couldn't quite figure out what they meant... Surely a time as it also says "date" but in that case, what unit time is it? ... I guess we just have to wait

I'm still convinced something will happen on May 12th lol

ANYWAY, I was right when I said we would have something new yesterday xD

Yea I don't know how to decipher that code though unfortunately =(.

The code will be displayed though on that image I found (the actual countdown wont be an image file though, since the countdown would have to be displayed in real time)So there has to be some sort of flash asset in there that I just can't figure out. Oh well. We'll get to see what they're up to soon probably.

Version 1 of the clock (what we see now):

Version 2 ( the one that will probably show up soon - with countdown section):

I wanted to post my finding on DBN, but I don't think she would want me to lol. I posted a comment about finding a clock with a countdown section on it, not sure if she will let it get posted.

I wonder what it countdowns to? So far we have a tv/radio and a clock. Maybe well get a telephone next lmao. This better lead to album details or hopefully a song

Looks like Mz.Hyde might be right about may 12th. In the comment sections of this picture :http://instagram.com/p/YyvGQNu5EO/ a person claimed to have figured out the code.

This is what he says:

Well guys, I spent quite some time reading the site source code and what I can say with 100% sure is: At 11/05 04:00 GMT the actual clock will change to this second one with spaces and a 24 hours timer will start, then on 12/05 04:00 GMT the preview for the song will be released(dunno if it'll be the full song but the code says preview), apparently it will be called Prophecy.
--------------
So yea that's cool.

I'm assuming the guy who figured it out is not from the US, hence why he puts the day before the month. Just pointing that out in case someone doesn't realize and thinks we have to wait til November, rofl. So look for a countdown to start on the 11th and then a preview to be released on the 12th (if this guy is right )

Wow, hope that guy's right! Plus it makes perfect sense
With all the new stuff it seems like we all forgot about the old radio... Maybe the 13th station will become clearer and that's where we'll be able to hear the preview? Anyway I'm still checking every single day like a maniac lol

Glad we won't have to wait until November, I would literally kill myself!

This excites me greatly. 9 days to a song hopefully!!!!

Also Chaco, you have a fb? If so pm it to me

Nah I don't have any sort of social media account. I did have a facebook at some point but I deleted it a long while back. Maybe I'll create one again soon just to stay in touch with friends and stuff, but eh, social media isn't really my thing for the most part.

If/when I create one I'll let ya know

GUYS, THE COUTDOWN IS RUNNING. 23 hours and 47 minutes from now on.

Ahhhh! So cool! I bet it's the new song! The countdown expires 7 Am EST timezone. I'm in the central timezone so 6:00 am. Ughhhhh! I don't even get up that early during the week for work but I've waited so long for this so worth it!

I'm sleeping in, lol! It's not that I'm not excited (I am) just that I've a long, stressful week and that's my day to sleep this week. Plus, we're hitting the road for my folks for the day, so I won't be sleeping long. On top of that, I bet the website will crash and I'll pat myself on the back for sleeping in, lol!

ha, yea... 3am is usually the latest (or earliest depending how you look at it)I'll stay up for something. I love A7X, but not enough to not sleep

Besides, I'd rather sleep through the countdown then stay up for it, which would make it seem like an eternity!

Same here =). I need my sleep and as much as I love A7X, I can't stay up terribly late for them =)

It'll be 1PM here in Paris so it's all good for me! At least you'll have the "announcement" as soon as you are awake whereas I still have to wait.
3 hours left argh.

What the actual fuck is going on?!
