3 times.... maybe 3 is a big hint about something that he's trying to lead us to. Hmmmm
anyways, here is the raw source from the bottom of the ATS page.

I don't see anything hidden or out of the ordinary, does anyone else?

Whoever wrote the html did not close the HEAD tag and start the BODY tag. Seems like a rather odd error to make.

Okay getting back to the the "3" thing I noticed down near the bottom there is
"ATS Server: www3.theabovenetwork.com"
www3? maybe it's just a coincidence.
and the "Site Rank" image source is "http://widget.quantcast.com/user/widgetImage?domain=abovetopsecret.com&widget=3"
widget=3
However I can't see how these would have any connection with the 'game'.

Game or not, that link was put there for a specific reason and it is a mystery to be solved... still a 'game' to me 
Something is afoot.
Where is the 'sign'
I hate waiting.
Jbird... stop teasing. You know something

I wonder if it has anything to do with the 911 Pound Gorilla site going live?
The site says coming soon.

I believe the reason the host name is changing (www2,www4) is that the site is on a server farm with load balancing so your particular request can be
routed to one of several web servers. The host is most likely added to the page so that if problems occur the host can be determined.

I just had a thought. this whole thing may just be a viral marking thing to promote the new book. just like Trent Reznor did with his last 2 albums.
in that case, its not a game.
im going to look into the gorilla book announcement by SO.

Maybe it is related. I found some things on this page which may be clues.
About halfway down the page, it says
PEOPLE SHOULD NOT WAIT FOR THE SIGN
and
There will then be three warnings given to the world. ... After the three warnings, a permanent visible sign will be left on the mountain where Our
Lady first appeared in Medjugorje.
But, it may just be a coincidence.

Maybe I'm wrong but if there is a clue it will not be found anwhere except this site. I'm pretty sure that any hints to the game will be found here
on ATS.

The 'hidden' link was just put there for inbound links to the new site.
Whatistheconspiracy is a new domain, linking to it from here got it indexed by the spiders, and it needs quality inbound links to boost search engine
rankings and page rank.
Its just a search engine optimization thing; and im pretty positive thats the only reason it is here.

That's all good and well, but what is the purpose of the new site?
I don't 'think' ATS would put an obscure link on the site for a non-ATS site just so spiders will pick it up  That would be a new advertising
model for sure.
Time will tell (I hope)
Give us a sign... where is it ?

Games and contests are moderated by Hunt_Admin. If this is a true game wouldn't it be moderated by Hunt or even moved to the game and contest board?

Its not just to get indexed, that part is over. Its to pass on the link juice, pagerank and inbound links. It is either a link that was paid for, or
it is a new project that ATS is launching.
No way to tell right now really.
