A Little Extra From Tim Doyle 327
I feel like I've been here before but now we have a second follow up to Tim Doyle's The Numbers poster. Patmc has sent in this picture of the extra doodle on the poster and a copy of the letter that Tim sent out with the poster.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 327 of 327It's not a normal day on here if there aren't refunds issued, right?
I believe Amy Lynn, she says it with such confidence.
Sometimes I make stuff up off the top of my head, but I'm pretty sure I read the 15th.
I refuse to belive that Amy Lynn, Gregg nations said there's a trick to is, and darn it, I will find that trick if it kills me.
Or until tomorrow when I can take my languages exam.
@chrisl: cheers...
"Sometimes I make stuff up off the top of my head"
Ok I don't necessarily believe you anymore Amy ;-)
Martyn, please let me know when you figure out the "trick".
Hello, Weinbeeezy! Good to see you here in view!
@Martyn - LOL! I was doing the exact same thing last night. But when I got frustrated, and just held down the select button on my remote... I noticed something very strange. If you look at the Dharma swan logo behind the Davies "rejection" page... the "R" in Dharma... is backwards! The only reason I was able to see it (it is normally covered by text), is that I freaked out the system by holding down the select button. I'm not crazy... I'll post pictures later tonight. Is this somehow significant?
I did some research on this to see if anyone else had noticed... and I couldn't find anything having to do with Lost University. There are some articles about the backwards "R" appearing on ABC's site in the past, but people argued that it was just a lazy web designer. But I find it hard to believe that this was just an accident. Lost University was a "big" project... I don't see someone building the LU project grabbing the wrong file, and not noticing.
Anyone else notice this... and do you think it has some significance to Lost University or Lost Season 6?
I actually think Gregg Nations was either putting you all on, or didn't know what he was talking about, since they announced the other day that the Davies class wouldn't have openings till the new semester
@Martyn - Forgot... I too want to know HOW IN THE HELL DO YOU GET INTO THE DAVIES LECTURE!!! I've tried everything I can think of... and there is no Googleable info out there!
This just in from Stout's website:
"i'll be emailing this friday regarding upcoming poster sales for lost / phish / monster squad.
those sales won't be til next week. if you're on my mailing list, you'll get plenty of warning."
OK - I'm believing Amy again now.
Patmc...
You're not crazy, I see it. Just hammered the X button on my PS3 and now it's repeatedly trying to enrol me now. But the backwards R is intriguing.
Google is useless, I can't even think of keywords to find it, and I can find just about anything on Google, very demoralising!
Good job, Max!
Hi I have a bunch of posters that I don't want, I was trying to get the whole set and now I just don't want to have to ebid for them.
Here are the posters I want to sell:
Swan
Statue
Walt's
Love Triangle
Barracks
Polar Bear
I will look at all reasonable offers.
nealflesner@gmail.com
I don't understand why you would want to sell your posters just because you don't have a full set. Were you just collecting the full set to flip it?
Oooo, i'll take wal.... wait, no, i bought it already.
Sorry, old habits die hard apparently!
Hi Neal, would they be sent from the UK or US?
The question of favorite characters is difficult for me to answer. As others have posted above, the list changes for me somewhat season to season.
Hurley and Charlie have been fun since the beginning. Like Anne, I was already a Dom fan from LoTR. I have missed Charlie everyday since the Not Penny's Boat scene in TtLG.
The Ben character has been endlessly perplexing and of course ME amazing, so while I'd be wary of him if I were on the Island, he's still a fav. Locke's challenges as our Man of Faith would be why I'd include him, though sometimes the ease at which he is manipulated is frustrating.
Faraday appeals to the part of me that is, always has been and will always be a physics geek. I have actually found Miles entertaining since S4, of course more so in S5. Des is uniquely and miraculously special. Sawyer, his nicknames/Sawyerisms and loyalty despite the con-man exterior. Richard Alpert and his back story continue to fascinate, and of course Jacob and MIB for similar reasons.
Sayid for his skillz, strong and dependable since S1. I guess the doc in me identifies a somewhat with Jack and Juliet, though less so as the seasons have gone on.
I know a lot of fans have their reservations about Kate, and while I don't like her tendency to run or some of her decisions, I still find that she's a strong character IMHO. And yes, I like Eloise as well. Eko was interesting while we had him. Jin and Sun, Rose and Bernard. And I'd like to see what happens with Libby's character arc.
Pierre Chang because well, he is Pierre Chang and I see I have left Vincent out.
So, you see, I have trouble choosing from this ensemble. Our story would not be where it is wit the absence of any of our characters (except maybe Nikki and Paulo).
lol @ Martyn
Martyn
I've seen that video you posted for Davies class at ABC.com that wasn't the whole video though.
That's odd that they'd use that as Davies class. There must be more to it.
Hopefully I'll be able to get in on the 15th.
Sayid's Girl,
I haven't watched it because I want to watch it on the disc. Think i'm going to give up, may have crashed my PS3, but Patmc's observation of the backwards R is really intriguing. I wonder if we'll ever find out why?
My poster is 69/300 and it says you're clucked on it. Also my free print was a Michael Jackson Print.

I can't wait to get my Olly Moss! Eeek!
Martyn
I hope you haven't crashed your PS3 that would be awful this close to the second semester. I haven't seen the backwards R but I haven't paid that much attention to it. When it says the class is full I just go on. lol
Well I got two extra smalls and a large... Jensen only let me buy three so it's a good thing they didn't have anymore larges haha
not sure how I'm going to decide to sell these out?
@ Weinbeeezy --
Maybe just toss the names of those who paid in a hat and pick one out?
Thanks again for the effort - very cool of you!
A lottery sounds like a good idea...
Weinbeeezy -- you could do first come first served. Or a random name/number generator to do a virtual picking a name out of a hat.
Essay contest
For you Olly Moss fans -- Threadless announced Threadless WINEBOCON Cali Meet-up on Feb 20th in Paso Robles, CA. Olly Moss is listed a s one of the attnedees. Sounds like more fun for SoCal fans.
@weinbeezy: Great to see you de-lurk here and be so helpful! :)
@AmyLynn: Sorry for the twitter posts...some do consider casting info spoilers...and it's only going to get tougher and tougher from now on. And, don't worry, nothing of a spoiler nature will come from me out of Hawaii...mostly I plan to just report on meet-ups and get togethers!
Neal-
Just sent you an email. When you have a moment, please shoot me a note back.
Thanks!
My mom lives in Paso Robles... it's beautiful there! Though it's really more Central California, than Southern California. Not sure I'm up to another 5 hour drive so soon after Christmas... LOL
Can anyone of you phonecall the gallery and ask them to check the email and answer to the only italian man who's writing to them?
My LOST is still missing.. i'd love to have a tracking number :(
Sorry Patmc -- I see that now, posted before I googled. Yeah, 5 hours is quite a drive, though I think I spent nearly that much time in the car driving between hospitals in one day last week for work!
Ooops, meant to add during the snowstorm last week. That's what happens when I post from my iPhone.
3-4 weeks ImAnnie, so it'll probably show up in the next couple of days. If not, FREAK OUT AND PANIC!!!
On that note, should I be worried Walt's Kidnapping hasn't been shipped yet? :s
You bought it yesterday, right?
Wait until tomorrow.. and then we'll panic together :D
Oh, it's been dispatched, thank goodness. Phew! Anywho, better head off to bed, another long day in the dullest place in Birmingham tomorrow. Fun!
Goodnight everyone, thanks for another day of enjoyable chit chat!
Maven, going to send you a quick e-mail before I go related to your previous e-mail.
ImAnnie...
In all seriousness, wait until the end of the week and then just send a nice reminder e-mail. If nothing, resend it in case they missed it. Once they reply to an e-mail, they are extremely helpful. Although they never replied after they gave me the tracking number for The Polar Bear. Hmmm, I wonder how it's doing, such an abused bear, getting shipped to Uk and then back to America. Must be in desperate need of water by now.
Ok, defo lost it, going to sleep.
maven
I hope we'll at least get an it was amazing! You guys are going to love the premier! And make us all jealous. lol
lol Martyn, I have the 'Now Panic and Freak Out' mug for morning tea :) Night...
Martyn
Nah It's got some left over Dharma beer to drink. ;)
My trade buddy yesterday has fallen through so I have now got an extra Hatch.
Looking for any of the 3 that I don't own: Crash / Locke's Secret / LOST
highly unlikely but if anyone wants a trade (or trade and piles of cash for the first two) please email me
If I don't get any trade offers (most likely) then I'll offer it up on here in a few days
steve dot elliott2 at googlemail dot com
Thanks Martyn and good night!
I think that i'll NOT visit spoiler site from the 26th till Feb3... Too risky :p
I'm going, too!
Goodnight all!
So been away playing with ideas and my favourite one is this...
So Back to the Future 2 poster...
link
But headed 'Back to the Island'...
Starring Jack Shephard and Frank Lapidus...
Tag line 'We're not going to Guam are we?'...
Frank as Doc Brown, Jack as Marty....
Dolorian is Ajira 316...
Ajira logo bottom left of poster...
Jack/Marty stepping into the glowing door.
Now, if anyone can actually draw, please feel free to produce this (I can provide the preliminary sketch).
:D
@MurghBatwar
If you don't get any trade offers, I would be interested in the infamous hatch. Let me know.

@JustThinking: please can you send me those pictures of DD print?
dvdbos@gmail.com
If someone knows its email, can they please let him know? Thanks!
Really nice Dan! They really tie the room together :)
This is a bit OT, but for any who support Conan O'Brien:
Lets tweet:
I'm with CoCo! http://imwithcoco.com #teamconan
Nice one Dan! You have 3 of the 4 i need above your dinner table! haha Looks great :-)
My WK is back with its proper frame:

Hi all, another day of sightseeing, beach walking and shivering in Florida.
Don't want to go home, but the UK is calling me. Flying tomorrow and hoping the snow is not going to delay us too much this time.
hey guys this is just a continuation of my last comment regarding the lottery ticket numbers in dan lydersen's painting..... i emailed him and so far no response so its still speculation as to why they are different.
@Zort: Sorry that usually warm Florida didn't thaw you guys out! Have a safe, easy flight tomorrow!
Very nice Amy Lynn.
It's too hard to chose my favorite character of LOST, but the one that I keep coming back to is Jin.
From what I can remember, I don't think Jin has done anything that would make him a bad person. The most questionable thing he did turned out to be because he was trying to save the guy's life. Even when they first land on the show, he was acting that way because one of Sun's father's employees scared him before he got on the flight.
Sun was portrayed as the one who was the victim in her marriage in season 1. I say Jin is the victim, though he is so loyal that he sticks with her through all of the bad things she does.
Sun cheated was the reason Jin had to do "special assignments" for her father, Sun grew to spite Jin for what she made him do, and Sun learned how to speak English to leave Jin and then boned the guy she learned it from!
At this point, the only redemption I see for Sun is if she sacrifices herself for Jin in season 6. I believe that is how her story will end.
My thoughts are with the people of Haiti who have experienced a 7.0 earthquake today.
ImAnnie, are you still there? Trying to send you pictures, but the color is coming out too blue. Want to know what kind of browser you are using?
Just received a refund notice from Tong after getting a shipping notice....This happen to anyone else?
@ Matt
Probably the $5 for domestic shipping. I can only wish I had gotten that! Stupid not-accepting Mastercard payment setup... :(
Nope, it was the full $215 refunded
lol wow there is a lot of grammar mistakes in my last post...
@ Matt --
That definitely doesn't make sense. I would email him and ask because I know they were going to refund the $5 so maybe it was a mistake?
i use firefox JT :)
Matt... it's a gift! :D
Lol
futureself -- great idea, maybe thorsten can do something with it tomorrow?
Just got my shipping notice from Kevin, too!
ImAnnie-My son is trying to get the photo to look as purple on the monitor as the poster does in person. Bit of a trick. Will send if it looks like it will be useful.
Weinbeezy..Tell Jensen MEL wouldn't mind if he sent something along with the Polar Bear, when he gets around to shipping it..;) ..MEL
MEL: Can you send me your email
(maven1908 at yahoo.com)
@Dan - What the heck is going on there with "The Hatch" frame? Is it slipping, a reflection, or in a TARDIS-like frame?
maven,,by now you should have the answer
MEL
@Maven - Agreed on the Haitian earthquake. Lots of U.S. citizens in the D.R. - have some friends doing medical mission work there. Hope all is well.
Hi to all...
Favourite characters:
Michael - love his story and Harold Perrineau is an amazing actor. Not all characters have a happy ending.
Charlie - so much life to this character. Dom is awesome.
Locke - great story, all the way through( So far?)
Desmond - How can ya not love Des, brotha?
Miles - prickly. I love it. It's when I consider his character and the fact that we've seen little of his backstory (compared to others) that I lament that we not longer get 24 episode seasons.
I do have other favs. I do like Jack, and seeing him struggle gives his heroic(tbd?) character depth.
ObFuSc8 - Sorry to hear about your last few days. Best wishes to you.
Nice framing on Walt's, AmyLynn.
On framing, the subject came up recently on EB. I posted a pic of my framed Dharma Van on pg. 72 of the LOST series thread there.
Not the best pic, but you'll get the idea. 22 x 28 frame. 2 inches (all sides) mat. Generally I prefer mats (vs. without) , specifically white, as they simply let the artwork speak for itself, without trying to emphasize anything in the print. Just my approach. Also, all of my other framing has white mats, so as you look around the room at different framed /matted prints, there is a consistency. Others have a different approach to matting, and I've seen some cool results. But for this print, the Van, on black paper, the white mat makes it pop -brings out the whites in the flowers especially. My humble two cents on framing and matting.
@comixguru - Congrats! But don't you work for ABC?
Most exciting news EVER, Comixguru!
See you guys there...Aloha!
Oh, I see. Well, have fun and be safe.
ImAnnie - have sent the best we can do on the WHY poster- I think you would like it even if you find it too purple.
Alice.. That is So GARGANTUA!! My god! what a story its already becoming!!
YAY!! YYAAAAAAAAAAY!
MEL
Yep- congrats Comixguru-hope you'all have a great time.
@Sandman - yeah it looks kind of weird at that angle, huh? It's just the glare. Here's a pic from another angle:
http://s60.photobucket.com/albums/h23/ntoriusdan/LOST%20Art/?action=view¤t=crash_hatch_locke.jpg
@comix... that's awesome. I thought you were going already!
Hmm I didn't get a shipping notice or a refund from Kevin. Anyone else still waiting? Also, anyone know if Olly started to ship his yet?
I got my shipping notice from Kevin about 4 hours ago :)
I didn't get a shipping notice or anything from olly yet either.

My Christmas present to myself arrived today and I love. It's already made a great conversation piece - why is he singing to a polar bear in the woods?
TA, that is such a Kumbaya Moment around the campfire. Very nice. And, and Olly T!
Hi im an up and coming print maker tell me what you think of my print
http://img30.imageshack.us/img30/1170/lostposter.jpg
Like that a lot Greg- the shadow behind the letters and the highlight portraits make an interesting light effect.
I've just finished designing my own Lost related poster as well.
Link
If enough people like it I may look into actually printing it, so please critique!
There are a few obscure references in there, too.
Night!
@ Andrew. Like it a lot. Very Cool.
Morning folks. Snowed in again today.
Such a lot of great pics up during the night.
@Dan, your room looks great, 3 "top tier" prints in a row. Nice!
@Trial Attorneys, you must be thrilled. That is a beautiful piece.
@Greg and Andrew, Great designs, you definitely have it going on.
And congrats to Comixguru... I'm not quite sure what for, I'm probably missing something but, good one whatever it is!
I had a shipping notice from KT over night, which is great but even better, I had a refund from Jason Munn. How cool is this guy, a $5 refund because "The shipping wasn't as expensive as I thought". Bonus.
I have a spare statue to pass on at cost if anyone is in need btw.
Well, I'm off to bed now. But as promised (quite a bit) earlier... here are the links to the Dharma logo from Lost University, with the backward R. I took the pictures myself, and as Martyn confirmed earlier... it's not a Photoshop or a fake.
I'm still trying to figure out exactly why they used the backward R... I've got it! Season 6 is the BACKWARDS season! How wild would it be if time resets, 815 lands at LAX... but when they get off the plane: EVERYTHING IS WRITTEN BACKWARDS, and they're the only ones who seem to notice!
Um... I did say how late it is here for me, right? ;-)

What the heck... one more little treat for you before I fall asleep at the keyboard. I didn't see it posted earlier, but forgive me if you've already see it.
This is my new favorite LOST related song!
How to Not Die on LOST!

(and you'll NEVER be able to get it out of your head either... LOL!)
Morning all!
Congrats to comixguru, although all the posts seem to be deleted, i'm sure it's something cool.
Snow again, oh I wish it was a decent amount of snow that meant I couldn't get in to work at all. :(
Congrats all on The Hatch posting, soon you will get to witness the beauty of Kevin Tongs work.
I'm at home - work's shut again thanks to the snow. I hope there's a no warning poster drop today, so I can put it to good use!
Looks as though Ben and I are set for a day at home. Random unexpected poster drop... I doubt it. Shame.
Martyn, do you work anywhere near The Mailbox by any chance?
morning all, nice and cold here this morning. about 6 degrees. Burrr
Hey Lisa, you'll see from the above posts, the UK has been hit overnight with a heavy snowstorm yet again. Not something we're used to. It's bedlam out there.
Morning Peeps!
Trial Attorney - Your Bear Serenade looks great, congrats!
Andrew, once again I am a huge fan of this!! There is some really clever stuff going on in here. Put me down on the list for one for sure ;)
We're actually thawing out this morning...please no more snow! And broadband getting installed into the new pad today too so hopefully I'll be able to watch all the vids I've been locked out of the past two weeks with my super slow connection :)
wow Chris, how much snow did you get to shut you all down there ?
Congrats @Comixguru on your winning the trip to Hawaii I so wanted to go to that. The premier on the beach should be the best ! and sand and sun at this time of year- wow ! I'm so jealous !
There's a new post btw.
Comixguru is coming to Hawaii???? Congrats alice, look forward to meeting you!
ChrisL, yeah I work near the mailbox, probably a 5 minute walk from my store.
Lisa, quarter of an inch! That's enough to shut down the UK.
Seriously, a little more than that. Nothing like you're used to I'm sure but we're just not set up for it here. Rain, now that we can cope with, we are SO used to it but heavyish snow is something else.
Comixguru. That's awesome! Congrats.
wow Chris, that's amazing that just that little can do such damage. Is it because people don't know how to drive in it ?? what should the temps be there normally ? Hope you enjoy the day and stay warm.
Lisa, not enough grit for the roads and cars with no special tyres. Honestly, it's hilarious to even try getting the car to grip and move. Too dangerous.
As Martyn pointed out, There's a NEW POST. A new competition and it's another great one.
A guy put his Lockes Secret for 1800 dollars (Buy It Now) on ebay. This statement cracked me up. "Use either BIN or Make a Reasonable offer."
That is an absurd amount of money.
Yeh. It sucks that some of us will never get a Locke's Secret thanks to these ebayers.
you know Chris, here if it snows that little or even a inch, no one even treats the roads or plows. we don't have special tires either, you just learn to drive in it.
Lisa, in the UK we're too busy wearing bowler hats, playing bowls, being polite and queuing to learn to drive in snow ;-)
lol Chris, Ok, have to ask. playing Bowl ? whats that ? or is it like here Bowl(ing) with the balls in the alley ?
Lawn Bowls Lisa. Not that I've ever played and it does actually require a perfect summers day but It's a traditional British game with at least two bowling greens within walking distance of my house.
very kewl Chris, thanks for the link. I love that kind of interesting stuff.
Good morning all, I've updated the Tim Doyle infor post to say the information about the number of posters is completely unofficial, it was just a guess from Tim based on what is common in the poster printing world.
