I’ve never seen so many people working to crack a code (of course, I haven’t ever really seen anyone trying to really crack a code.) There’s well over 100 people here struggling to decipher the code to walk away with the prize. If you’re not one of them, get down here and watch the madness anyway.
UPDATE: Someone just cracked it!

2:41PM Nick Broughall | If you’ve been following the trials and tribulations of Constance Newlove and the quest to crack the Quantum Code, then you’re probably already aware that tomorrow she’ll be personally delivering the final Clue at Midday at World Square in Sydney. You’ll definitely need to be there in person if you want your shot at the prize - the final clue won’t be available to anybody other than the people at Sony Central tomorrow.

And if you’re not based in Sydney, remember that the Quantum Central Forums contain people from Sydney that you can partner with to win the prize. How you split the booty is up to you.
A recap of the first three clues is below the fold. We’ll recap other three clues later this afternoon…

2:00PM Nick Broughall | My code-cracking skills must be lacking, because I completely missed the super-secret bonus mission. However, one clever individual has already completed it and will get the secret prize of a return trip to Sydney, including a night’s accommodation at the 5-star Sydney Hilton. Not a bad prize for cracking a code.
The bonus mission winner will be at the Sony Centre Store in Sydney at midday this Friday. And while they haven’t publicly revealed their identity yet, rumour has it that they’re going to be in for one hell of a challenge - as is everybody else. Something big is going to happen, so make sure you’re there.

11:01AM Nick Broughall | If you’ve been trying to crack the Quantum Code (and you should be), today’s clue is one of the toughest challenges yet. It involves actually going out to meet the shady information dealer Vaughn — in person.
He’ll be waiting to meet you between 11:30 and 2:30 today. Where will he be waiting? Well, you’ll have to scan the code above and find out.
And if you can’t make it there to meet him yourself, you should hit the Quantum Central forums to recruit an associate to help you. Remember, this is a national competition, and only through hard work, teamwork and some rather clever code-cracking will you be able to have a real shot at the $15K Sony prize pack.
It’s the most dangerous mission yet. But Danger always was your middle name, wasn’t it?
