@viraj-iknFSV • Jan 28, 2012

According to my deductions :
All the pics directly or indirectly relate to the term "absolute zero" (although a thermometer can never show -273.15, it conveys the message)
So there is a radical change coming, something not done on CE before, absolutely from scratch.
And since changes have been made to the site in the recent past, it is improbable that changes are in the look and functionality of the site.
And hence my deduction points to a app/ mobile site for different platforms so that CE can be accessed properly on the go. Maybe work on it has been done from absolutely the zeroth level and from scratch and hence those hints.

@mrdon-92OwlG • Jan 28, 2012

Ok, then its time for a guess, I think

From the teasers,

First One, Absolute Zero - OK - The lowest temperature possible, the temperature at which everything including air freezes solid 😔 😖 Scary. 😛 Hence, you're enhancing or bringing something which will chill us.

Second one, woo..A Vodka add 😛 Perhaps relate to Absolute Zero as well which says "Absolute Perfection"

and third 1-2-12 (Date-Month-Year) , although there is nothing to relate with the date other than it's fancy looking. Hence, in my view it may not relate to any event or anything except it may be something relate to "Joomla" !

"😯 May be Biggie going to freeze us with a Crazy theme! All new CE look, themes, photo Upgrades 😛 All the stuff with awesome absolute perfection!"

and I'm not expecting much more than that now. Hence, I hope the surprise will be immense like this. So Surprise us Biggie ... 😀

Absolute zero does not exist. It is merely reverse-extrapolating the graphs of pressure and temperature where the value of entropy is at its minimum. ☕

it might be a temperature display wherein you have to key in your city and you get the temperature/weather in your city.. and since its going to be launched in this winter season the pictures display absolute zero.. absolute zero= lowest possible temperature.
P.S : some regions in India broke a 11 year old record of temperatures recently.. 😀

@ The_Big_K :
the second one seems to be a bottle of wine or spirit 😛 ... so people like to drink these in cold days... or like it heats up your body... so it has some relation with temperature...
and the third one ... i did not realize that to be a teaser 😛
all the letters except the "absolute zero" are in red so it means (red (hot-relating temp)) the women's brain is heated up and she yells at the boy saying that he is an absolute zero is because the boy is as chill as an absolute zero and doesn't put any work to his brain.... Its a weird guess guys 😉😁

Ok..Seeing those teasers my guess is like something helpful for students who are average in studies n als for all ..You are providing interface for MOCK TESTS or SELF EVALUATING tests joining hands with some company..Absolute zero indicates that the online tests will be starting from scratch..And they wud be helpful for dull students..students will knw wer they stand..It wud include subjects of all branches...
And also i guess u ppl r providing VIDEOS OF LECTURES of famous educators,so that the crazy engineers can understand the concepts well...
Hoping my guess is right..😀 😀

2-May be some kind of new app or prizes.
3-May be it will start somekind of research work which everybody can contribute to.
4-May be some Absolute new ideas comin up.

First Teaser: Absolute Zero is ground state - the lowest energy level.
Second Teaser. A horizontal Spirit Bottle indicates that the contents are fully in and the spirits (of CEans?) have soared up to wild heights.
Third Teaser: The mother (K?) brings all down to earth with a thud to the real world of mundane engineering, which is what feeds us ultimately.

Remembering Big K's words :

Our dream is to turn CE from an online community to an engineering company. While we've discussed this many times; I wish to share an important update in this regard. We've made lot of progress in terms of revenues so that we can hire engineers & sustain their salaries. We're currently busy doing our homework so that we can begin hiring engineers; both part & full time to work on eye-popping projects we've planned. Venture Capital firms and Angel Investors are already approaching us which gives us an extra boost. It turns out that managing a company is a bit more challenging task that we first imagined 😀.

Within next 3-4 months, we'll begin hiring awesome CEans to create amazing things. Relevant announcements will be made at proper times.

Contests & Activities: New contests will be conducted at a greater frequency because we know that you just love them!

CE Meets: It's so unfortunate that we haven't had a official meet this year. In 2012, let's try to have at least 4-5 official CE meets.

New Partnerships: Quite a few big companies are extending their hands at us for partnerships. It's too early to talk about what's being planned. But it surely is exciting. Stay tuned.

That's just a hint of what's coming on CE over the next few months. We're excited and already sleepless 😁. We promise, we won't let you sleep.

This was posted on 26th Nov 2011. So February will be the third month from November , so i guess CE will be hiring engineers now !

1. Thermometer at 273.15----Absolute 0 temperature..It is where all molecular activity ceases..might be something is going to end. 2012 ENDING....HE HE

2. Liquior of Absolte 0--- Water freezes at 0°C (32°F) and the freezing point of ethanol alcohol is -114°C (-173.2°F).

3. Absolute 0 again..

With all these things ,i can make only 1 guess....ABSOLUTELY NIL..

..that you can see all in this thread, you got lot of guesses. But still it looks like the correct guess is not out yet. Absolute Zero 😏

Assuming that I've read all the posts; we do not have the right guess so far. Not even close! Come on! Imagine your favorite book lying on the shelf and all you need is a right guess to have it in your hands!

We're just a few hours away from the launch. I'll try & add one more teaser (not on the obvious location, obviously 😉 ) before the launch.

Hey, You're making me confused.

I thought it could be a enhancement to the site but "Is it a small talk from a scientist related to a thermometer(or from a scientist who had expert-iced concepts based on Second law of thermodynamics.)"

or CE mobile Upgrade i.e., new CE logo for mobile application!

All the three guesses above and now!

What can they could be...😨 Complete the project work soon Biggie.

But none of the guess is even close. Watch out the community for one more teaser (soon).

By the way, the 'help' thing seems to be on the top priority. We should work out something in that area.

I'll drop one more hint for the more enthusiastic CEans. The new thing will make you come back to CE; again and again and again 😁

CE Office is coming; but we figured out that if we wait a little longer, we'll actually setup a world-class startup office. Plus, if our upcoming features (there are several of them!) make us more successful, we'll start picking up CEans right from our community to directly work with us.

1-May be something related to improving engineers capacity from the basics with some kind of tutorials or trainings for the absolute beginners. 2-May be some kind of new app or prizes. 3-May be it will start somekind of research work which everybody can contribute to. 4-May be some Absolute new ideas comin up.
biggie is planning to rename the month of February as April
K's plan seems to be to circumvent CEans becoming extinct in 2012 by deep freezing all @ Absolute Zero.
Some SUPER conductors!
Crazy Engineers T-shirts.... or something?
are you freezing CE???
absolute zero spam
it would be something adventurous ,that had never happened before in CE,may like a campaign to motivate youngsters but in a different ...absolute zero relates the contest is related to simplicity ,from the very beginning .
Providing an option to either type a comment or post it as a voice reply. So we would have a choice to either read the comment or hear the comment.
i guess CE will be hiring engineers now !
a forum/site related to kids which(Absolute Zero) can keep kids coool/happy
CE is on a revamp! New features to the site, hiring people, announcing new ventures are my guesses.

Hence, my another and final guess is CE Conference. 😀

So Are you going to add any php material for Online CE gaming stuff! If it is I'll add this one to my guesses.

This is surely my final guess.

CE Gaming i.e., chess puzzles etc (online or offline 😀 )

Most of the CEans must be on CE while they are online. So something that will make them come back to CE could be something that operates when you are offline ? Perhaps a mobile app which gives instant alerts ?
That way CEans will know in Absolute Zero time that they are remembered on CE.
Dunno , maybe others have already guessed this and doesn't seem to fit. I didn't see all the previous guesses so sorry if this is already been discussed. 😔

@i-am-kunal-lBstgK • Jan 31, 2012

There is a new forum visible . Title 'absolute zero'. It is empty as of now. Dunno what it means. Plus it is in lounge section.

But the 500 Bucks question is - What will it be about ?

Sites like Physicsforums have forums in which one can play games such as chess. Each player can open a thread and in that thread there is a chess game(ex:- #-Link-Snipped-#) I guess it could be something like that. As it is in lounge section it can't be something seriously academic. Plus a live ongoing game is something that will make people come back to CE again and again.

Or perhaps there could be science related quizzes in this forum on a regular basis.
