Exclamation 08/08 Findings Australia, Bondi Beach (Updated Original Post)


WARNING: SPOILER ALERT!










This thread is to post any findings for the people whom are going to Bondi Beach, Australia tomorrow at 6:41am on Saturday the 8th.

As Australia is a day ahead, Australian bioshock fans will find out first what is going to happen at these beach locations. So if you don't live in Australia and aren't going to Bondi Beach, and you don't want to know the findings until the rest of the world has discovered what is happening at the beaches then don't read this tread. :P

If we find anything on the day, this post will be updated from Bondi indicated what we found.



WHAT WE FOUND.


2k did plan something on Bondi beach, Australia at 6:41am today (saturday).


About 50 people turned up from bioshock fans to the confused public at the beach of Bondi this morning. What we found were about 40 half buried bottles of wine in the sand in the area of a 15 meter (diameter) with on the bottle label, "Acadia" "Product of rapture 1958" etc (see images below for more details). Inside the bottles were 3 posters (shown below) of adverti☺☺☺☺☺ts of Rapture.

So we can expect something great around all of these locations on the SiTS site


THANK YOU 2K ^__^

According to timeanddate.com, 6:41 AM at Bondi Beach is about 3:41 PM in my time. So, as I understand it, for me 3:41 tomorrow is when the Bondi event will happen? Time conversion is confusing. I can't go to any of the beaches because I am nowhere near any of them, so I will want to find out what happens as soon as possible.

This should help

6:41 AM AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time) equates to:

4:41 PM EST
3:41 PM CST
2:41 PM MST
1:41 PM PST

Note: Australia is 17 hours ahead of PST (14 hours ahead of EST) so even though it is the seventh in US time zones it is the eighth in Australia.

So when Mr. Martin posts his findings, who's actually going to look?

I am.

Getting tough to contain the excitement, I keep checking this thread for an edit XD

Good idea for this thread...

As a land-locked consumer I sorta thought going through the 08/08 thread (for results on at 3 or 4 locations) was going to be a bit of a pain. I rather do the the "one thread per location" idea, but I'll take the info any way I can get it.

It's great that the English speaking beaches seem to be so well covered, but I wonder how the others are going to do? Think there will be beaches where nobody shows? I guess that's a better question for the 08/08 thread.

Well have fun and I anxiously await your findings.
