    Because nobody actually goes *into* the Discussion forum, and because damnit it's our forum and we'll put topics in the wrong places if we want to:

    Discuss the Ominous Timer here.

    What does it mean?

    It's a red herring, to lure us away from the fact it'll actually be released in two minutes time.

    I think it's made in COBOL.

    It's how long before one of Gaslamp asks me out on a date.

    Better go shopping for some new jeans, then.

    It is the amount of time the orphanage has to pay the ransom on the urchins before they are put in the "Lost and Found". (AKA WidowMaker.)

    It shows when GLG's plan for the world dominancy starts.
     
  7. It is the time until they announce the winner of their "Who can come up with the most amusing meaning for this Ominous Timer" contest.

    Also the time until they announce it because it's a Secret Contest. Everyone involved wears enormous hoods, that's how you know it's secret.

    Also this post is part of their disinformation campaign to make you THINK that this is a disinformation campaign trying to make you THINK a person made all this up as a joke on the forum. Of course that disinformation campaign is just a decoy.

    Also everyone is actually clones of the Eris. The greek goddess, not the discordian one.

    Do they use secret passwords? Secret and ridiculous passwords. Something like on the beginning of Pratchett's book Guards! Guards! Or even more. On a second thought, that may be a bit too much.

    Actually, it'll be the day when the Plush Diggles are unleashed upon the world.

    Because, y'know, Gaslamp are major teases.

    Why, it's obvious.
    It's the amount of time left to August 27th, 2012.
    Which is Our Hero's birthday.

    Does Diggle Fortress contain hats? If not, no buy. Games need more hats.

    It's the time I have to assassinate the Antagonist of Project Odin before the guy who hired me will refuse to pay. (Basically it's my deadline, and if I don't make that deadline, I don't get paid.)

    Edit: I have no idea who the Antagonist of Project Odin is. Maybe GLG can give me a hand so I can do my job.

  19. More than likely Project Odin real name reveal, screenshots, release date, stuff like that.

    However, if its Dredmor 3D, I won't complain
     
  20. They already announced that months ago.
