Ok right, for the past few months (since March actually) the BB10 Holding Page has been stuck on "-24 days to go!". I'm that sad cause I checked like every other week. I checked yesterday and it was still on -24 Days to go.

and now its changed to -29 Days to go

Could this mean they're possibly changing the page in a few days or just some stupid theory.

I can't see it meaning anything, unless its BB throwing us a little hint? doubt it.

If it meant anything it would mean tuesday 1st of june launch.

I know I counted that.

I don't think its anything, but you never know!!

Web editor could be having a play about with something or whatever.

Holding page last year went up the 11th May, so this years has got to appear soon!

well you see , -30 days to go would mean it started 30 days ago .

If it said Day -30 , it would mean 30 days until day 1

If it said 30 Days to Go it would mean 30 days to go

No hmm it's an automated javascript countdown, that page hasn't been modified since BB10 launch week.

it's a buggered script, they will build the holding page offline and then put on the
web at the time, they won't edit the old one...

If you view the source and look at the javascript code, the date is that of Big Brother 10's launch. So no, nothing to get excited about, just an outdated code.

Thank you. I really can't believe this has sparked two pages of specualtion, it's changed every few months for the past year, it's just a badly written javascript, i.e. automated piece of web code, counting down to a past date, put there last year, that hasn't been written to stop at said date thus goes into the minuses.

As I've said like three times now, eejits.
