For those topics one could describe as the forum equivalent of a twinkie. Word games, forum contests and giveaways are all the rage here.

42 isn't the meaning of life.
It's the answer to the Ultimate Question, but no one knows what the question is. I don't get why so many people get that confused. o_o

You ARE smart. Good job, you win.
BTW, the ending time was actually another clue. That's when the next episode of LOST comes on I'M SO EXCITED!!!
Anyways, send me a link to your trades. Or put something in your shop for 50K and tell me. Whatever.

4 8 15 16 23 42 are 'The Numbers', a sequence of numbers that keep popping up on Lost. We first heard about them in an episode where one of the characters won the lottery (in a flashback) with those numbers, but then finds that after his success, everyone connected to him in any way suffers horrible luck.
Then, on the island, the numbers again pop up in the hatch, an underground...thing. One must enter the numbers every 180 minutes (I think that's the # of minutes; I can't remember), or apparently something very bad will happen. At the end of last season we were sort of told what, but then the hatch went boom explodey and so we have an incomplete answer.
Yeah. *waits for Lost*
ETA: and the clue to those being the number for the contest was in the first post of the thread, when TOSO said "Namaste, and good luck", which is a phrase associated with the Dharma Initiative, which is apparently the group that made the island a research facility in the first place (it isn't really one anymore).

4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42
They're the Lost numbers. Featured in the show in many ways. The word 'namaste' is also used in the show, TOSO posting it was a hint.
