hello

The only connection I can see is between the rat image and "Cheese," one of the production names of the movie.

Sorry, I know it's a OOG/should be left for dead thread, but I just wanted to say the kanji says "Kami," or "God." This has been your Japanese lesson for the day. Whee~

Who called OOG? Is It OOG? What the hell?
Just got off work and was excited to conitnue and then OOG! CRAP!

Where did it become oog? I should learn to keep one window open for unforums and one on the site I am dismantling.

Geesh, the only thing I found on the site was the #6 is prominent in the slusho stuff.

27 = 01+18+08

and the symbol is for protection or God. Geesh, never mind if it is OOG.

You guys are way to quick.

CUE: STYX, "Too much time on my hands"......

FADE TO BLACK, THREAD CLOSED>>>>>

 wtf

Shocked

All this just while I was asleep? New site. Dissection. Dismissed? Hours? Daaaaaamn.

I did read all the posts and caught various snips of justifications but what specifically is it that has caused the conclusion. Is this basically the gist of it:


Someone bought the domain/hosting, particularly godaddy, awhile ago and then for whatever reason opted not to follow through on the original site....and then gets in on this, pulls the site up, adds some characters and a pic of a rat, a code box and uses urchin tracker for legitimacy, even forwards it directly to slusho.

With regard for gamejack, I'm sort of vague as to how so just yet. Getting traffic is completely irrelevant if you have nothing to offer and their own forwarding directly to slusho after 2 secs doesn't even really allow visitors much time to see the main page content. That to me seems a little ignorant if one was trying to jack into the game and then sending us immediately back to the game.


Then again, if it happens to be ingame....the above still applies. What the hell is the point of this one? Least on 1-18 we have a common sense grasp that it's a photo album, it's a timeline of events...and on slusho, we at least know there's a history and if there's a clue to be had, it's in that section...but what's the point of this? Slusho doesn't need a whole other domain website splash page.

Okay...just checking if this is the gist of why it's being dismissed or did I miss one?

And once it's official - so I can add it to the list officially.

oh, no no no.
I think the biggest reason its being dismissed is that there's no reason for it to exist.

Do you know where this came from? An anonymous comment left on one of the many, many speculation sites.

I just don't buy that one person cracked this open and got a new website unless

(a) they got a "solve" on slusho or 1-18-08 and don't feel like gloating about it
(b) They are actually in on the game and have chosen an utterly stupid way of progressing it
(c) its a gamejack


Now, thats not to say this might be the gleaming gold gateway to a wonderful fan ARG. But official? I doubt it.

I don't think that being hosted at an internet provider like GoDaddy makes it instantly OOG; quite the opposite, frankly. It'd be rather obvious if it were hosted in a back room on the Paramount lot, wouldn't it? You can find out in a second where the box is physically located, so putting it on GoDaddy or similar sites disassociates the "game" from the real world.

Secondly, I find it odd that, in the decrypted source, the "input" tag HAS NO ATTRIBUTES. Without attributes, such as an "id" or "name", it won't be posted to the server on a submit. Therefore, the code is never used by any system because it never goes anywhere.

I wouldn't call this a "gamejack", just a site that has nothing to do with anything.

This site was made MONTHS before slusho, yet it directs to slusho. This means that the site wasn't always a redirector to slusho, and it is a attempt at gamejack. And yes, it's gamejack. If it was unrelated he wouldn't have directed to Slusho.
