- Thanks to you all guys, You were very helpful. There can only be one winner and congrats to him. I guess its most likely Thomas. The one who may have very close to submitting at the same time is GBallard.. Anyway need to wait for the official announcement.

Quite amazing when I think of the technology. They could even afford to stream live high def videos from moon with such a huge link. Not sure how long the delay would be for the stream to travel this far.. - $10,000 Competition – The Password Released
If there is any competition that comes up for UK residents, I will be there to help you guys, despite being in Australia
David and the rest of you guys have done a lot and I am sure the two resources that helped all participants progress in the competition are Whirlpool and Smoothblog. Although Whirlpool was the prime place for all the discussion and clue cracking, I know that Smoothblog became the ‘secret’resource where people were looking to see whether something better has been found. Guess what, many times your discussion threw new light and also direction to our path in Whirlpool. In other words Smoothblog complemented Whirlpool well. Well done! - $10,000 65th Clue – Richard is on the bucket brigade
David, you are indeed about man in the middle.. Well done! - $10,000 65th Clue – Richard is on the bucket brigade
Hi all, looks as if today is one hectic day for clues. Too many to really keep track of. Didn;t really follow it but I saw the Whirlpool seems to be having veyr active discussion Cluemakers seem to have also added a tag VVV to the Flickr map, which was not there initially. This V chevron on that we saw on three privates seems to be crucial. - $10,000 65th Clue – Richard is on the bucket brigade
Thanks LiveInGeorge (Whirlpool), for the new clue/solution, the ‘final scene in the middle’ to be solved fully

I got a tweet from tengrand_IE8. Someone deduced the password at 8pm, accessed the site and made a claim for the prize.
I’m deciding whether I should un-install IE-8 as we speak.

If the prize is won, just have to wait now for all the solutions from MS. Red herrings will end on the BBQ of revelations.

Well done to those who worked it out in the end and especially to whoever claimed the prize first.
Thank you all on Whirlpool and Smoothblog for allowing me to post. I’m also in the UK, like admin, so was only in it for the fun, and I’ve enjoyed it immensely. Cheers, guys.
