Aksys is teasing something

What if there was a third invisible 03 on the initial counter (counting the days), that would explain why it changed after 2-3 days, we don't know exactly when the site was put up. This invisible counter has been counting down for 6 days since the last change. Guess we'll find out tomorrow :)

I actually have the benefit of having only played both 999 and VLR last year, so haven't had to wait anywhere near as long as some people, but this whole thing is suddenly making the wait for ZE3 unbearable. I really, really want it now.

I'd be a lot more patient if its mere existence didn't hang in the balance.

Really? I'm more annoyed by the fact that I have to wait 6 months for Danganronpa AE than this thing that doesn't even exist yet.

Yeah. Really. I had come to peace with it never being a thing. Then it becomes possibly a thing again and just tortures everyone without confirmation that it will happen at some point or not.

Patience runs shorter in times like that.

Damn it. Just realized that I've been waiting for this since 2012...that's far too long for me.

Holy crap! Today's real megaton is that more than two people can have the same first name.
If it goes down to 0301 tomorrow, what happens after 0300 will be really interesting.
I'm hoping it becomes 0203 (2 months, 3 weeks.).... If it goes down to 299 instead, expect riots - I'm not waiting 6 years. :D

If the digital root idea is right, then it will go like this (for 6/7 weeks):

0303
0302
0301
0300
0299
0298

It will feel like the counter is going on "4 infinity. ∞"

In reality, the real countdown are the digital roots.

0303=6
0302=5
0301=4
0300=3
0299=2
0298=1

When it reaches 1 or what should be 0, the site will have a "mysterious malfunction" (because 0297=9) and something new will happen, maybe the announcement.

That's what I think will happen. Not giving up hope on ZE3.
 
So if tomorrow the website doesn't change that is it right? We have stretched our expectations this far, and although this last theory COULD be solid, we seriously are trying our hardest to figure out something that just doesn't seem to change. I personally am ready to call it quits if it stays the same tomorrow, after checking this page daily, I just don't see what they are trying to achieve with this after this long, other than rile us up lol.

Still says 0302 for me, what a load of bull :(

I would have to update excactly 7 days after the last change, so about 24h from now.

If nothing changes by tomorrow, then I'm out as well. But right now, I'm all in.

This idea seems simple enough to be true, we'd have thought of it a lot earlier if those pictures hadn't diverted our attention from the beginning. The teaser would have been a lot more vague and we wouldn't have spent so much time on solving the "ARG". If that's what’s going on, then the actions or lack thereof by Aksys make sense to me. They can't just say "Yup, it's ZE3" because of Chunsoft and their marketing plans, but they also can't step in and lie to us just to calm us down. They did their best by locking the images.

Tomorrow is the last day I am going to follow this if it doesn't update. I can't do this to myself. I hope it does update though because we can't really do anymore than makeup crazy theories.

Sorry, can't hear you. Too busy riding the Hype-Stairlift ;)

Choo, Choo!

If it's really 302 years then I should have brought something to read!

Can I upgrade to first class? It's probably worth it for this long a trip.

If anyone else wants to hop on, just add yourself to the picture. Tomorrow will be fun either way ;)

What the hell, I'm in too. No picture yet cos I'm on mobile. If someone can be a lamb and add me I'll be super grateful.

Your post about the digital root countdown ending with a malfunction at 9 has gotten me hyped again, takoyaki. Damn you! I hope you're right. My only gripe with it is, why did the first number change happen 2 days in and not a week? Poor planning prevented them from starting it on 13/03? Is it important that the countdown ends on a specific date? You theory points to 24/04 for a full reveal. I can wait till then if we get clues in the middle. Is there any significance to that date in either the Zero Escape or Infinity series?

Tomorrow is the day that hope lives or dies.

I'll interpret this as a "yes, I'd like to ride this very reliable stairlift"

If more people want on, I'll make another update in 15 minutes

Nah, I want to be the guy with a fork playing with the electrical outlet. I can count as part of the 9, though. I just want to be over by the outlet, lol
