I called to tried and make a dontation today and inquired about why their url was on a picture on ourcolony.net. Good ole' Elaine Wu didn't seem to have a clue as to what I was talking about...I inquired about the yellow thank you...less than helpful response. Anyone tried the barcode out if you were to rotate the picture 180 degrees...essentially reversing the barcode? gamem8ker needs to give more information.

The white bars made a barcode that turned out to be a phone number and when you called it told you the answer. So I think that the white bars have nothing else to do with what gamem8ker wants us to see.

Yes, but what does it prove?


Nothing. Just throwing things in the table. Seems a bit difficult to believe that ms will have anything to do with an organization someone from sony is involved in also.

Also, why does it have to be aaci.org? Can't it be aacL.org?
Though looking at the aacL site and what it stands for, the aaci does look more promising heh.

Some one needs to try and call:
Vice Chair
Andrew Vu, J.D.
Corporate Counsel
Sony Computer Entertainment America, Inc.
to see if he knows anything. I know he is on Sony, but he is on like 3 boards.

Meant to see something

What if we are all looking too deep into this question? Could we literally be overlooking the obvious?

What else is there to see. People have "binaried" the image, "photoshopped" it, zoomed in, zoomed out, rotated it, looked at the numbers, looked at the fans, looked at the arrow, looked at the 0 and 4, looked at the fan positions, tried to figure out what aaci.org has to do with it, printed the image, punched out the holes, held it up to websites, done testing for alien DNA, cross-referenced it with the end of the world, and attempted to contact Jimmy Hoffa to see if he knows what we are looking for...nothing. Without additional guidance, I'm not sure how whatever anyone "sees" it will be able to be cognitively put together to take a next step...there are a lot of bright people working on this (most much more intelligent than I) and nothing has come up...

Also wierd

Does anyone know if Microshit Microsoft gave any money to aaci? Because if they did, that would be really strange that Microsoft gave money to a company that had a major competitor attached to it.

Yeah that brings up a good point. Why has gamem8ker not put up a challenge today. Is he waiting on someone to figure something out. Well bollocks, we can't put anything together if we don't even have all the pieces. So i think he needs to post more info or this one discussion could go on for quite a while.

It's not unusual to be on several boards of directors, Mr Vu as a big Sony dude is an outstanding successful Asian American and it makes sense for AACI to have him on the board, I think the relvance is the date gap still; 25.

I dont think we are on the right track, I do think that aaci.org is a good step but this Andrew Vu stuff seems a bit desperate, 502.com is very suspicious considereing:
1) the picture text
2)the recent update
3)the expiration date on the domain

Anyways, i'm abed. Se ya'll tommorow

Date gape

Could the date gape have anything to do with how long µsoft has been around?

OK, here's another random guess...

If the piece of paper in the pic reads "Thank You AACI", I'm wondering if it's a receipt from a gift to the AACI. I'm looking at the "Give" page of the AACI.ORG website - what if there's something there?

The only thing I can think of is that we need to donate to AACI, but how would the Gamem8ker know if we did...unless we were to take a pic of a gift reciept, and post it on the game site? Perhaps we get points that way?
