Unfortunately the image doesn't show up in FireFox. I had to switch to IE in order to see it. I didn't really expect it to fully work in FireFox if this actually is in support of the new XBox.

It looks like the colonies are going to have to start working together to get the answers to the riddles. The original picture that each colony saw was only a small piece of the bigger picture.
Go here to see the full image with all the puzzle pieces put together. If the colonies don't work together they won't have enough of the clues to solve the challenges.
Copied from the above thread

Stella
The in-house name for the Atari VCS while it was in development. Named after a bicycle owned by one of the Atari 2600's creators, Joe Decuir. Stella is also the name of an Atari 2600 emulator that has been ported to just about every modern-day operating system
"Joe Decuir" was CEO of Atari.

I solved 2 of the early ones, but they've all been answered when I get a chance to look at them lately.
There are some people at unfiction that are upset with lurkers taking the answers after they are posted on their forums. They think they should have a locked forum that only members can see. I can see their point, but I disagree with their logic. After the previous challenge (pictures of puzzle pieces), it seems fairly obvious that one colony couldn't have solved it by themselves.

Sorry guys, I answered it. I saw the puzzle on another site and figured out that it was probably something with the 2600 based on Google. Then, I saw the answer on another site, so I just went ahead and put it in.
It will be difficult to be the first to answer these challenges becuase the other teams are figuring them out in a matter of minutes.

Don't get me wrong I am not stealing answers from unfiction. Just after all of these questions have been answered I wanted to know what they were so I went there to see how they got the answers.
I agree with you hector why lock the forums? It would have made this puzzle much hard without having the other pictures.

Well the picture is still there and it says we solved the puzzle but here is some text on the screen.
ready for more secrets?
if you aim to find the truth, you will uncover tom canty instead of edward
(to err is human, without the colony, you would have been misled by the error)

The guys over at TeamXbox have been chatting on AIM with people they think are designing the game. The prince & the pauper refrence seems to indicate that they are not chatting with the right people.
If you go over to their forum it's pretty crazy. Anyway, I wouldn't worry too much about that note at the bottom of the page.

New challenge is up:
It is "The End" when Alpha, Delta and Omega are destroyed.
Either this has to do with adding the letters A, D, and O to the word "The End" and forming a new word. Or it could be some numerological exercise like on this site:
http://www.revelation13.net/Greek.html
Armageddon = the end = 1008
Alpha = 1
Delta = 4
Omega = 800
Thus the answer is 203? Maybe not....
Or it's a star trek reference: http://www.st-hypertext.com/voy-4/omega.html
Or a missle command reference:
http://www.citizinemag.com/culture/c...ilecommand.htm
