news.yahoo.com — The Lost Experience, the online interactive game launched last spring to give fans clues to the island, will spill the meaning behind Hurley's lottery numbers--4, 8, 15, 16, 23 and 42--which are prevalent throughout the show. Their importance will be revealed to gamers who complete the third phase of the challenge.

JJ Abrams is awesome! If you didn't know, he also directed Mission: Impossible 3...awesome movie. I always raise an eyebrow when JJ is involved in a movie/show.

Gridl0ck, That is a common misconception of the so called "HDTV" XviDs. The 350MB rips are actually far from HD quality, the resolution is much lower (something like 512 x 288 vs 1280 x 720 for Lost) and Most of the finer details are completely lost with the massive amount of compression used. The reason they made HR-HD Rips was for people who wanted something a bit closer to the actual broadcast and while the resolution was increased (now 960 x 528 vs 1280 x 720) and the bit rate increased from 1000kbps to 2000kbps it still isn't the same as the original broadcast. Now they have 720p rips for the more popular shows (24, Lost, Prison Break etc.) and that is actually much closer to the original broadcast with a resolution of 1280 x 720 and a bit rate of 4000kbps.

My humble opinion is that: Do you really want to here it? … Well, these 6 numbers (4 8 15 16 23 42) are for sure means something. But the producers they don’t want to revel it because that’s the point according to them. So, they are confusing us with hundreds of different hints so we will end up lost in them. We have to keep it simple and don’t play this pointless game they want us to play. At the end when the truth about the numbers will be exposed everybody will say: “…this is it…and why the clock had the sum of the numbers 108… why the flight was 8 15 gate 23… why the first season survivors was 4 8…why the time that the plain took off was 08:04…etc” and the answer off course coming out from the laughing face of the producers will be “Yeap…hahaha”. So my friends don’t even try to understand what these numbers means because there is no clues given in both season1 and 2. Now if you are a very big fun of LOST, and there is nothing wrong with it because is a really good sequence, I will share with you my opinion which has not been said anywhere. – Each number represents a location in the island or in the world or in space. All the locations are connected through their magnetic power. The location of each point has nothing to do with humans and all the system is not manmade. Humans are there with the role of ‘keepers’ and not with the role of ‘creators’ or ‘investigators’ or ‘scientists’. The where about of the locations and why are represented by these specific numbers is manmade just because numbers in general are manmade. So even if the producers let’s say they have the answer we can not be sure that the answer they have now in their hands will not change in the future. It has to be an answer, which can give you the advantage (if you choose) to shoot LOST SEASON 4 and SEASON 5 and as many as possible if they still produce money. We can easily recognize this tactic from the most obvious difference from SEASON 1 & SEASON 2, which is the following: - In SEASON 1 the “monster” makes some specific sounds. These sounds if you notice them more carefully are coming from something mechanic, something manmade. In SEASON 2 we never hear these sounds again when the “monster” appears. The answer for me is very simple. When they produce SEASON 1 they did not know what kind of feedback they would have from the viewers. Simply they did not know if they are going to shot SEASON 2. So the ‘monster’ was mechanical and manmade and black smoke was coming out of its engine. It was there to create fear to any accidentally visitors to the island and it was manufacture by the DHARMA who where a scientific group trying to keep a big secret and so on. But after the huge success of the SEASON 1 these had to change and had to create a much more complex scenario. So we kick the mechanical monster and it’s sounds away and we keep only the mysterious black smoke that the monster where producing.So my friends the scenario is something, which is dynamic and can change a lot. So if there was an answer to the numbers, then has to change because simply we don’t know for how long LOST will produce money. So the answer has to wait. So we keep the answer wide open so we can reform it as much as possible and whenever we want but for keeping the viewers busy, we through hints with numbers that we can later say that have nothing to do with the real answer. So don’t be surprised if LOST ends up like the soap opera “The Young and the Restless”. So according to my theory (some might say that is totally stupid but is my opinion) if we wanted to have the answer we should stop watching LOST SEASON 3 and wait for it to be released in a DVD. If that was possible I am 100% sure that in the DVD of LOST SEASON 3 we would get all the answers and there would not be a SEASON 4 extending our questions. But the real question is “Do we really want LOST to finish in SEASON 3?”
