Homepage Easter Egg?

[Twigley]

Cal showed me this a while ago but i thought he was BS'ing me.
Not sure if this has been posted before, but for anyone who hasnt seen it-

* Go to Bushtarion.com home page.
* Click anywhere left of the main logo ... about half way in between the logo and the link to the forums.
* Press tab once or twice.
* Press enter.

:!:

Two links to myspace pages are linked in 2 pixels of the main logo! :o
Straaaaaaaaange.

The pixels are in the eyes of the skeleton. Hover over it, and your mouse changes to a pointing hand. We had a discussion about this 'easter-egg' on IRC lately, and have been trying to get more information about possible other hidden 'features'. Apparently there's a lot to discover, but it's very hard to find it. (azzer gave us a tip - ie something james bond-ish happens when you have SA and do certain things, something related to jurassic park if you have t-rex and do another certain thing, etc..)

i bet there is one for every purchase unit. i hope so at leasty any way. well except you cant do that much with sentries. have you tried hiring 007 secret agents or something?

Move your mouse to anywhere you want and keep pressing tab and it will eventually find those 2 links.

Only one of them, the other is in the "." of the yellow question-mark.

Notice how the writing on the wall of the picture begins with "Kro" under the skull and crossbones.

Also, look in the page-source.

"EASTER" friends, eh?

I found this several months ago, and spent ages trying to find more, but it was time wasted. :(

[Maxi]

We need more easter-eggs. Most are way too hard to find atm. Go Borg cube (- Age 3 was it?)! :P

[willymchilybily]

its when the ticks were first changed to stop the server missing ticks in havoc. when it said 7 of 9 on 'the game is now ticking' message, you would get a message from a borg cube in your news. that was awsome.

Ps. Jeri Ryan was so hot as 7 of 9.

EDIT
i missread age three for round three. was just about to say i thought it was round 8or9 :S

Yeah, I think Hiuey and me were begging Azzer for info on that ;)

[willymchilybily]

i dont think this counts as an easter egg. but its strange and would like it explained to me

but go to your friends page add a friend and instead of putting in words you put in symbols and some of them come out different to how they go in


" = &quot;
£ = &pound;
& = &amp;
< = &lt;
> = &gt;
¬ = &not;

i dont know why. also if you put & it turns into &amp; and when you click edit it stays as &amp, so when you click add friend for a second time it says

&amp;amp;

and you can keep click edit then add friend and it goes bigger :D


lol yes i am that sad but it kept me entertained for 2 minutes

[Bobbin]

&quot
&amp etc are ways of sending symbols and charectors where you can't normally store them (URLs etc)

it's just poor programming on Azzer's part ;)

[TehPantz]

Heres my theory:

Azzer is a part time DJ at night. He mixes his own music in his basement when no one is around then posts them on myspace to share with the world.

Isn't bad music either. Good job Azzer. You should come out of the anonymous stage and proclaim to the world that you are indeed founder of Krow Bar Beats.
