[META] Suggestion box? Since this is technically a "training ARG" for PMs, I wonder if a suggestion thread might help them and benefit others in the future.
My suggestion is - set up an autoresponder for the Name Your Rock contest, so we know our suggestions went through and you don't have a bunch of people resubmitting names. For that matter, autoresponders on all in-game mails are a nice way for the PMs to buy some time.

Somehow, I feel kinda bad for having a thread like this while the game hasn't even started (or is running). Partly because I feel bad for criticising in general but it also takes away a lot of the immersiveness, as it creates a META-interaction (i.e. not through character interaction or other parts of the alternate reality) directly aimed at the PM's. Maybe we should save suggestions up until after it ended as much as possible?
Having said that...

You cannot get away with this a whole lot longer

I accidentally entered some incorrect information when I signed up for the "name that rock" thing so I sent an email to "webmaster" asking to delete the account so I can do it over but I've gotten no reply.
It's been about 2 weeks now and I'm still waiting for that reply. I've tried re-signing up but it continues to say that my email has already been used.

My suggestion would be just to submit another one - they'll probably delete duplicates from the database pretty quick.

A good suggestion huh?
I already told you it won't accept another submission using the same Email address.

Every good Unforum ARG member has at least two emails, and you can easily get more from gmail. We have a ton of them to pass along.

Right, so your suggestion is to sign up again with my other email, and it'll be accepted, and then both accounts will be deleted because of duplicate name, phone number, etc... so then I can sign up properly with my first email?
