Blizzard Splashwatch Day Four - Lost Edition [Mystery]

<p><img src="http://kotaku.com/assets/images/kotaku/2008/06/blizzsplash4.jpg" class="postimg center" style="display:block;display:block;"/>Great, now you folks have me wide awake at 3 in the morning my time, hunting for clues like an over-the-hill Encyclopedia Brown. The Blizzard splash page has updated once again, revealing what certainly look like a pair of glowing eyes peering through the broken ice. Is it Diablo? Arthas? Or is it Hurley? The reason I ask is because the latest secret image has appeared in the CSS of the page, bearing the number 16. That makes the sequence so far 4, 15, 23, 16. Fans of the television show Lost know those numbers, along with the numbers 8 and 42, as the numbers that keep popping up throughout the show on lottery tickets, prescription bottles, etc. Will the next two numbers follow suit, or is Blizzard throwing us another curve? If it is the Lost numbers, what does it mean?</p> <p>And where did those Vikings get off to? I cannot seem to find them anywhere?</p> <p><img src="http://kotaku.com/assets/images/kotaku/2008/06/blizz4thrune.jpg" class="postimg left"> Then there is the question of the latest rune, which I cannot seem to place. It looks like a solar system, doesn't it? I've been pouring over Blizzard stuffs but cannot for the life of me place it. I checked out various Diablo-fan forums to see if anyone had a clue before the sheer number of people fooling themselves into seeing things that weren't there made me too frustrated to continue. When you want something so badly you start deluding yourself you just need to take a step back and relax a little before people start looking at you funny.</p> <p><img src="http://kotaku.com/assets/images/kotaku/2008/06/blizzsecret04.jpg" class="postimg center">Finally, here is the secret picture as it stands now, with four images in place. It's quite obvious to me now that we're dealing with an eggplant with tiny feet, a tail, and a mohawk.</p> <p>Two more days and we'll know for sure, and then I can finally get some sleep. Damn you Blizzard. Damn you to hell.</p> <br style="clear:both;"/> <img alt="" style="border:0;height:1px;width:1px;" border="0" src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?i=684ebf895572b2be55361ae34c157b2a" height="1" width="1"/>
