    I think you are probably right...but I suck at puzzles and haven't been able to keep up so I can't search for the numbers with you..:(

    Guys stop focusing on every little word Mike says, especially with respect to the Pi movie, and concentrate on the numbers.

    I can't help but think there's a command we can put into terminal that allows access to the cipher.

    I know many people think the 5 4 numbers on the puzzle# 2 are a coincidence, but I think it has to do with either this puzzle image, imgSrc, or something to find out the Easter eggs. I can see this so clearly after so many looks at it without any other random letters or numbers popped up in my mind. It looks like these numbers have been inscribed into the image because I don't usually see fire flare that looks like this strange and weird. You guys already went with the xxxxx xxxx codes and found nothing concrete yet, and Mike's tweet somehow says that we might have went to far.

    Linkin Park tweeted "There is more to do" after this particular puzzle is out (Friday April 6 https://twitter.com/#!/linkinpark/status/188316550737035264) so I believe there is something important with this puzzle #2. Again this is all speculation, but I will laugh my butt off if this "5 4" or "5. 4" image in puzzle 2 (now I also see a dot in between :O) be relating to something we have to do to find out the solution to this "Cipher" puzzle.

    Anyways I'm hitting the bed now with this image stuck in my mind xD

    Doesn't seem like it.
    Code:
    	// terminal cmd
    	$("#terminal_cmd").on("submit", function() {
    		var i_prompt = $("input#prompt");
    		var p_prompt = $("input#pswd");
    		var p_label = $("span#pswd");
    		
    		if(i_prompt.val().toUpperCase() == "SUDO SOLVE()") {
    			i_prompt.prop('disabled', true);
    			
    			var compl = $('.square.complete').length;
    			if(  compl == 3 || compl == 4 ){
    				p_prompt.val('OOPS');
    				p_label.show();
    				p_prompt.show();
    				p_prompt.focus();
    				burned();
    				return false;
    			}
    			
    			p_label.show();
    			p_prompt.show();
    			p_prompt.focus();
    			var pswd_input = p_prompt.val();
    			
    			if(checkCred(pswd_input)) {
    				p_prompt.prop('disabled', true);
    				$("#terminal").slideUp(500,function() {
    					sling = true; 
    					burn();
    				});
    				
    				startAtPuzzle("#" + puzzle_pos);
    				
    			} else {
    				p_prompt.val('');
    			}
    			
    		} else {
    			i_prompt.val('');
    		}
    
    		return false;
    	});
    but :lol: at burned(); and burn();

    I wonder what would it be like if there was no reaction to the puzzles at all and no one was even trying to solve them.

    Well I'm pulling an all nighter. I wish I could contribute in any way, but I know nothing about coding. It's just fun to see all of the theories that get mentioned and seeing people go mad. It's like a movie.

    I'm guessing that someone has already mentioned this in the 165 pages but I should bring it up anyway. In addition to the numbers 4 and 5 that have been seen in puzzle piece #2, there is clearly a number 8 as well in the same piece. It's in the upper right section of the piece. It's much more obvious than the numbers 4 and 5. It's a very small number 8. It's sideways though. It looks like an infinity symbol.

    And the hype ends... sigh. All we can do is keep entering whatever numbers we see in the quadrants into the terminal. Why else would it say Burn it Down there, it wouldn't be referring to SUDO SOLVE() command.

    I definitely think this is gonna bite them in the ass if they nothing happens soon lol. People are either gonna get pissed and not wanna listen to the song, or people are gonna just not wanna do any puzzles or extra stuff from LP anymore.

    Agreed. LP need to release some of the promised snippets. It's like a week before the single releases. Get it together, LPManagment!

    I'm noticing the picture is somewhat symmetrical. Has anyone tried folding over the image to see if overlapping images brings out a code?

    I don't have a photo editor, but it might be worth it for someone to split the image down the middle (vertically), flip one of the sides, and place it over the other. Looks like the fire on either side of Chester's head may line up.
