first

Anonymous said...

up and ready!

Light Rail Coyote said...

ah, I am drunk

MJCarp said...

damn

StrobeJams said...

over at spoilertv the POSTER has been revealed... NOT the url

WTF?

Light Rail Coyote said...

I could have been first in another dimension.

Zort70 said...

Please don't post the link here

Light Rail Coyote said...

I vote Zort coolest person on Earth for the next sixty seconds

BuckarooBanzai said...

haha. I'm getting too old for this ;)

StrobeJams said...

I won't. Rules are rules.

Thing is... now it's incredibly easy to guess the url. Tyson really made it too easy ... cause nothing ever changes about the website syntax

Zort70 said...

Did I miss my coolness ?

JPL said...

@LightRail - Let's give him the honor for the next 2 minutes!

maven said...

Can't believe I'm still up!

Light Rail Coyote said...

to many peeps in the world to give props to. willing to give Zort 60 seconds a day. 2 minutes today means indebtness, and to many people are in debt as it is.

Zort70 said...

Hi Maven

MJCarp said...

morning all chat room getting ugly

lostsailors said...

Oh what a night to be a raging insomniac. And here I never thought my 3 or 4AM sleeping habits would ever pay off! I am so excited I can be up and see everyone have fun.

comixguru said...

what's happening in the chat room?

Zort70 said...

Has everyone seen the picture from the front of the store fro LostGeekGlasgow ? I've put it on the main blog page.

Justin said...

chat room's fired up. 78 people and growing

MJCarp said...

Yep. Lostgeek is having breakfast. I told him to send photo.

MJCarp said...

traffic for SophieBOYY

comixguru said...

i cant get into chat :(

MrPink815 said...

@lotteryticket Yeah I just got of that madness :/

Zort70 said...

Chat isn't the place to be if you don't wat spoilers.

MiddayShadows said...

Morning all!
I'm starting to have the feeling that I'm always going to remember this...

maven said...

Is LostGeekGlasgow on twitter?

MiddayShadows said...

forget chat. chat is here! friendly breakfast or reeeaaally late dinner chat :)

maven said...

Hi, Zort! :)

Scott said...

Sorry about the chat room if anyone is bothered about the poster being out early. Anyone knows what's going down in Glasgow right now?

Zort70 said...

I'm at my PC with a cup of tea and some toast with marmalade.

MJCarp said...

20 unidentifies in chat and Rev's having a go at them all. lol

@lostgeekglasgow @sophieBOYY @davidbcooper has all checked in

Justin said...

Lost_4815162342 has also arrived LT

MJCarp said...

now I have him. I'm using new Twitter List to get is simple

Sam G said...

Looks like it might be the best turn out to date.

MrPink815 said...

There is at least one of me every week, that guy who says they've been following along for weeks but just never jumped in with a comment, and then thanks all of you for the awesome time. But seriously I feel like I know all of you... well in a way I do. I know we all love LOST!!! Thanks everyone, and the best of luck!

Zort70 said...

Hi MrPink815

MJCarp said...

@davidbcooper and @holleybee are together on the train with tea

LostinLondon said...

Morning all - have just logged on so haven't seen the spoiler at all - but does that mean that dcaapb have put it up really early?

Hello to the glasgow losties ;)

Zort70 said...

No one needs to worry, nothing is for sale yet.

maven said...

So cool that @davidbcooper and @hollybee have met on the train! That's what this is all about!

MJCarp said...

@sophieBOYY is stuck in traffic and doesn't think she'll get there in time.

MJCarp said...

maven, they are friends but sounds romantic.

Light Rail Coyote said...

I am giving Maven 60 seconds

kiwilostie said...

My moneys on it being fake anyway, not that I bothered lookin. Just someone messing with us.

Zort70 said...

Yes, I don't want to jump the gun, but could we have our first ARG wedding ?

lostsailors said...

Oh the poor traffic person! There just isn't anything worse than wanting to get somewhere and cars are all in the way.

LostinLondon said...

heehee - hope that there is a romance, that would be amazing!

maven said...

@sophieBOYY thinks she can make it!

MiddayShadows said...

Ha , nice thought Zort....

LostinLondon said...

Right - I am going to try and get dressed for work and eat breakfast while still looking at the screen!

MJCarp said...

Just occurred to me that @sophieBOYY is texting and driving! Not a good combination.

JPL said...

Love is in the air....

Anonymous said...

I'd be married by now if it weren't for this hunchback

MEL

Amy Lynn said...

Awake and chatting. :)

feel_the_insanity said...

Morning all! Did someone say the poster has been leaked?

MJCarp said...

20 minutes

knightsintodreams said...

dunh dunh duuuuuuunh

kiwilostie said...

mmmmmmmm...hunchbacks...

Justin said...

Lottery, i actually took a pic and posted to my facebook last week while on my way to Melrose. I was sitting in traffic too...still prolly not safe :S

Zort70 said...

Yes, there has been a leak, but the bung seems to be back in for the moment.

Martyn said...

Martyn here, ready for some poster action!

Morning all!!!

maven said...

Hi, AmyLynn...Hi, Martyn!

MiddayShadows said...

my stomach is grumbly. can't figure out if it's for food or a poster.

feel_the_insanity said...

Phew, good. And, by the love of all things holy, did The Love Triangle actually sell out?

Zort70 said...

Morning Martyn, happy or sad you didn't go up to Glasgow ?

Trial Attorneys said...

Good morning! 4:42 in the morning - what am I doing!

MJCarp said...

Maybe we could go Loopt or another tracker and watch these folks on a map? lol @sophieBOYY reporting near University now

Scott said...

Always hungry for a poster :)

knightsintodreams said...

hey, how do you "log in" to DCaaPB?
someone said you could to save the time of entering your card number..

maven said...

@davidbcooper & @hollybee are there! There's 4 people so far.

feel_the_insanity said...

I guess the selling out of The Love Triangle shows the "uptick" in people visiting the site...ugh, we're going to have to be fast again if we want this one.

knightsintodreams said...

and morning btw :D kudos to those who are going there live~!!

MJCarp said...

4 'dorks' outside the shop via @davidbcooper

Zort70 said...

I've tried and you can log in, but you can't save time as it asks you to reauthenticate when the new poster goes up for sale.

Martyn said...

@Zort...

Mixed emotions really. Really wish I could of gone but oh so glad I didn't have to drive for 5 hours or get up at 4 this morning to start driving.

Justin said...

yay! SophiBoyy made it!

knightsintodreams said...

okaaaay :( bummer

Lars said...

Greetings from Indiana... i'm writing this with one eye open as I try to wake up.

maven said...

15 minutes....

MiddayShadows said...

i think the love triangle sell out is just people 'practicing' for this reveal. it's in a lot of carts right now. wouldnt be surprised if it went back on sale again..

andrew said...

@lotteryticket My GF just informed me that yes, I was a dork too. My ego is hurt.

JPL said...

Seems as all have made it. Sweet! Gotta love tabs. Twitter.. chat room... blog.

Claire said...

Hello! Good luck everyone!

Scott said...

So excited. 13 minutes to go.

kiwilostie said...

Theyll be in such a hurry for this print, wont see Lurv Tri in cart and wham, they buy it! haha

knightsintodreams said...

@ Lars,
this will totally help you wake up ^^

http://gethighnow.com/psuedo-tomatis-healing-sounds/

RamHatter said...

Wish I could make a coffee run before the poster reveal. I'm still waking up! (3:49 AM here)

maven said...

Good luck to all who try for this print!

Andrew Adshead said...

To anyone there, say hello to my friend Freya when she arrives in a few minutes, she's doing me a massive favour by going today!

Justin said...

good luck everyone!!

and a big thanks to our Glasgowian friends!!

MJCarp said...

I'm just gonna throw it out there. If you have the $$ and the time to purchase on behalf of someone else, please consider.

Anyone seen AndySchex?

Ginger said...

This is crazy, I can barely type. AAAAAH! Too much stress this early. Morning All btw

maven said...

LT; I think AndySchex is off somewhere concentrating on trying to be first again!

kiwilostie said...

LT, will keep that in mind.

Martyn said...

5 minutes

MiddayShadows said...

Best of luck to all!

lostsailors said...

@Ginger I am just the same! I am giving myself a headache from getting too wound up, haha.

MJCarp said...

ok, andy located and ready

Ben Ritter said...

Is love triangle missing from the hub now, or is it just me?

Scoutpost said...

Ok I'm here...sort of....

skarphedin said...

Yikes...just woke up at 4 am in Chicago....

knightsintodreams said...

Im typing my card info and address over and over and over in WORD as practice lolol
im lightnin' fast >:O

Mrs Z said...

Morning all! I can't get chat or the Dark forum to work, but this is where I usually hang out for reveals anyway. :) I can't believe I woke up before my alarm (at 4:40 am). Yawn!

lostsailors said...

@Ben Ritter Omg, it isn't. I wondered why all my frames shifted when I refreshed!

MJCarp said...

FB owner just snapped photos for the gang

maven said...

@Scoutpost! Yea...

Ginger said...

I love seeing pictures of LOST gate monkeys!

John-Paul said...

holy shit, alarm didn't go off and somehow i got up...

Sam G said...

Well, I like that they hold off opening the sale of the poster for a while after it is revealed.

Sam G said...

Well, I like that they hold off opening the sale of the poster for a while after it is revealed.

Scoutpost said...

DarkUFO forums are down due to excessive load. That means everybody's up!

Ben Ritter said...

They took it off so they can re-release it as poster #11.

Nate said...

1 minute!!!

Martyn said...

It's 9:00!!!

lostsailors said...

Confetti!

BarbaraJay said...

Good morning from Maryland in the eastern US!

BuckarooBanzai said...

Looks like I lost my voice in chat, haha.

Ben Ritter said...

I kind of like it. I couldn't tell it was Lost-related if I saw it out of context.

LostinLondon said...

hmmm - first one i may pass on

They don't say how they got the clue on twitter

Anonymous said...

Whoa. Weird print.

Patmc said...

Chat is too chaotic... I think I'll just stick here...

Mr. Friendly!!! I love it!

Walkindude125 said...

Hey! That line is right from the Pilot.

Hahah not a difficult one at all

feel_the_insanity said...

I woke up at 4 in the frigin morning for this crap?!?!

Scoutpost said...

very interesting, kind of neat...

LostinLondon said...

http://itookacoupleofflyinglessons.com/dcpb/millward-169693/

Sam G said...

Mr. Friendly should be happy!

Martyn said...

i'm mildly disappointed tbh

Was convinced it was a desmond poster.

Now do i or don't I buy?

Lars said...

Eh, i'm passing on this one too. Good luck to all that want! I'm going back to bed. haha.

knightsintodreams said...

THATS SO COOL AAAAH
ooooh im so nervious now....
dunno how i'm gonna explain this to my mom...hehe

comixguru said...

i was really reallly REALLLLY hoping for a Desmond/The Constant print.


color me disappointed. on many levels.

g'night!

Anonymous said...

That is abstract. And thanks cheaters for spoiling!

lostsailors said...

Well, there it is!

Oh lord, I think my cat could sense my stress levels or something because he's just standing in front of the computer going: HAI. LOOK AT ME INSTEAD.

maven said...

Ok, gang....hope you all get it if you want it! Not for me! Good night!

MJCarp said...

ok got IT whatever IT is

back in 20

The Unsomnambulist said...

Meh.

Anonymous said...

hmm.. I like it. I just don't really want it.

skarphedin said...

@feel_the_insanity:

I'm not awake enough yet to be as miffed as you are, but if I were awake I think I might be asking the same question....

Anonymous said...

Not a fan of Drew's style. Oh well, I can save money for the next drop.

Zort70 said...

We got a bag and board that says 'Widmore Publishing' and the new address on it. Hope the print is good!

Kelly said...

It's a nice idea and sort of what we thought, but not sure if it is worth a purchase. Wish another 200 of Crash were re-released!

Anonymous said...

Not for me!

Sam G said...

Not a favorite either.

Happy I the Hatch

Anonymous said...

I wonder how fast this will sell out. Will the time difference change anything.

feel_the_insanity said...

I hear ya, I'm barely awake myself!

I am SO disappointed.

Nate said...

How is that supposed to be Walt? Has this guy even seen the show?

vud said...

I like the three posters I have. So I'll leave this one for those who need it.

Unknown said...

I like it. I think it kind of captures just how intimidating Mr. Smiley was and the sense of powerlessness the losties had.

Roxanna said...

happy buying :)

goodnight everyone!

Martyn said...

I do like it, and I know where I could put it but i'd rather not. It's like the Love Triangle for me, really detailed poster but not worth spending my $50 on.

Oh well, let's have the clue for next week then!

Scoutpost said...

I'm with you anon...I kind of like it, but I don't think I really want it.

Also, I agree with comixguru and others who would really like a Desmond/The Constant, or a Charlie/Not Penny's Boat one.

Think I'm heading back to bed. See ya'll later.

skarphedin said...

Hopefully the prize for being the first purchaser is a fake beard and some glue.

Anonymous said...

Now the waiting game begins for the link to go live for purchase.

Martyn said...

Also, I'm not sure I could use this to trade for the swan station.

Will be intrigued to see how fast it sells out though.

andrew said...

love the colors though

Anonymous said...

It looks like Love Triangle sold out

Anonymous said...

back to bed.

LostinLondon said...

I do like it - but not enough to buy! Martyn - unfortunately I don't think this will be popular enough for you to swop :(
will still keep an eye out for you though

off to work now

Anonymous said...

There should be more time for those who want this poster. This will probably last more than two minutes. It's a great image, but the flippers might stay away from this one. It might be to risky for them. Congratulations losties...go get em'

BarbaraJay said...

Thanks to our friends in Glascow!

Sophie L said...

Thanks to you all that kept the update on my progress!
And us coolios that's went!



Majorly disappointed In The gift though =\


-xx-

skarphedin said...

Yes, thanks to those on the ground in Glasgow. Back to bed.

ObFuSc8 said...

Thank you Glasgow LOST ARGers!

Ginger said...

Not for me, again! I want a poster I really like. I had to think hard about this one. Should we still buy or just pass & let people who really want one have a go?

Anonymous said...

Started a LOST ARG site fan, but commenters thinking artists HAVE to do exactly what's from the show is making me think i should jump to the art site that hates us. Sad thinking artists cant change anything for u to love it

Kelly said...

Scoutpost - totally agree with hoping for the two you listed!

Back to bed - still can get another hour of sleep before work! Good luck to purchasers.

BarbaraJay said...

This poster is kind of neat. I have The Numbers and don'r really want another big head picture. I really want The Smoke Monster.

Zort70 said...

From Twitter -

The owner also said that something would be happening at the forbidden planet in New York today #lost #lostarg #lostviral

Martyn said...

I thought they would stay away last week considering not a lot of people liked it but still sold out in two. Who knows! The more I stare at it the more I want it but 2 wall spaces left, just not going to happen.

Good luck to those who are buying it, i'm off out to get some bike lights instead.

Cheers LostinLondon! I don't think it'll be a popular swap either.

lora said...

Stating the obvious, but most of the WCMs are from the early seasons...

Anonymous said...

@waffle....mr smiley????? lmao its MR FRIENDLY....dont you watch the show??

Ginger said...

Thank you Glawgow LOST ARGers!

RobPerrin said...

I like the concept and the mood, but bogus Walt and Friendly spoil it for me.

Scoutpost said...

Ok I didn't go back to bed yet. Wonder what's going to happen in NYC? Another sway giveaway like they did in Tokyo (only hopefully better orchestrated)? Don't know if I'll be up to see that one.

lostsailors said...

@Ginger, I know what you mean. When this started, I decided I would like a Ben poster, since he is a favourite character of mine and since money is so tight, I can only really get one. I am going to sob if no Ben one ever comes, or if I miss it when I could have tried for others!

Unknown said...

Yeah, I watch and love the show, but it's 5 a.m. Give me a break.

Scoutpost said...

That should have said "swag giveaway" doh. it's early (or late depending on how you look at it)

Anonymous said...

Are we thinking the buy now will be at :30 after?

Scoutpost said...

Wonder if they'll do a poster called "the Oceanic 6" ?

MiddayShadows said...

love the drawing of the boat, those thick textured lines. love the colour. i just cant get past the floating hand and the the way freindly's head is rendered. this artist had soe very effective prints in the past. this might grow on me, but not right now .

Anonymous said...

Still no update on teh DCAB page. Will ths have to be updated first before they go on sale? I hope there is an intern ready to start the sales on htese things this early in the morning.

Ginger said...

Should we try to buy???? for others, if we don't like it?

feel_the_insanity said...

No, if you don't want it DON'T BUY IT. That's the main problem here.

Adam said...

It's an odd size too...15 x 24

Ginger said...

Thanks for making my mind up for me at this early hour FTI

Scoutpost said...

buy now

Walkindude125 said...

got! Order # 1953

Unknown said...

Order #1969

Time to go back to sleep. Night all.
