 		[INFO] Recap of sever 4 opening
Correct me if i'm wrong anywhere

Aug 9, 2007 10:50 AM PDT: Thomas Sanatos posts on the castaway theory forums giving us Jonas Volman's Hotmail.

When message this account you get a bot which eventually links you to the bump control site.

This links you to the microsoft site where you give your info to get your free crap, meaning that this was the key.

========================================

At the same time http://206.16.223.76/ was found and through back hacking, boomerang was found to be the password.

Information on server 4 shows The boomerang nebula which indicates we were supposed to find this before http://206.16.223.76/. Meaning we well could have found the key and bump control pass for server 5 way ahead of schedule.

Also by backhacking we find the organization responsible for this little crapshoot of an arg, akqa-staging.

is everything right, or did i miss something horribly?

 		and just to clarify - there's no reason the believe anything yet is related to server 5. We're at a dead end, so there was no danger in finding server 5 stuff before it was intended.

The only missing link that I know of at this point is the intended method of coming to the new IP. Everything is explainable sequentially. If it ends up that there's no valid link to it until server 5 opens, then great (and bad, because that's bad on the PM end that the site is already active but not intended to be accessible)... but anyway.

Just clarifying that server 5 relevence is speculative at best at this point.

Hey, could you you change the title of your thread? Clearly, it's not a recap of what's happened today, though it still claims to be such.
