Tell me about it. I'm trying to figure out the answer, but I just don't seem to be able to. >.<

And sometimes a semi-blind guess is the way to go. My only question, and if it'll give things away PM me, but is there an actual answer that goes in the url on the picture page? Or, is the answer taken straight from the pics? I'm honestly not sure that I see the exact relationship so if someone just wants to PM me with that I'd appreciate it.

It took the first of us (those that started at 12:00 am EST) until 1:30 to figure it out. It is possible but so very convoluted.

You guys can do it! I'm trying to think of a subtle hint to help, which is tricky when you've never played the game. :p

Nope. Nope, I don't get it, really.

As far as I can tell, it all has to do with these guys and the golden ratio. I don't know anything about the golden ratio as it's related to video games!

Hint:

Think about the overall image, what does it represent?

I don't think that's too much, is it?

People who have the answer, is this appropriate?

I started at the same time as you guys, though my time is a bit different. About 5 times later than for you.

Hint away. If I have played it, I might get it. If I haven't, then so be it.

It is more about the people in it or what they do.

Right, not getting it.
I know they're all mathematicians, and I got the golden ratio/fibonacci thing. I knew all this when I first saw the picture. But nothing I try to type into the URL works.

Nope, we figured it out the hard way, they should have a challenge.
I like your reasoning!
By the way, THANK YOU [sub]and the team[/sub] for creating such a fun event. It has been a great distraction for me since I am about to explode from studying.

I more mean I haven't played the game. :p

I hope this isn't too big of a hint, but
think about their jobs. Mathematicians are usually put in the same category as __________?
