From the Slusho Distribution page:

HELP

If you are inferring that you sent an email to Slusho from the distribution page and received a response from them asking for the Articles of Incorporation, I strongly suggest that you figure out a way to prove that you legitimately received a response from them and aren't just messing with us. To date, no one else has received a substantive response from them, so this looks very suspicious and no one on here is going to take you seriously until you back this up.

If you are, in fact, telling the truth, I'm sure the people on here would help you out, but nobody wants to waste time on a hoax. We've already been through that enough as it is and are understandably skeptical when a new poster comes on here with a sudden breakthrough.

PS - If you are Colbyrook under a new name, take your BS elsewhere.

PPS - If I were you, I'd post your proof ASAP, because if there's a long delay between this post and your response, I'm going to assume you're delivering something that's been doctored. The counter of this is that if you post it fast, it's more likely to seem legit.

I just received a reply email from Slusho as well:

I got the same EMail... Gonna send them my real Articles of Incorporation.

*EDIT*

Sent them a very real copy of the Articles of Incorporation for my company registered in the state of Florida. Hope that wasn't a bad idea...

Wow, ok I feel like an a-hole, someone else posted a similar thing in another thread. I guess they are responding. Sorry.

I'm sort of wondering about what they're getting at here with this. Are they really trying to find real companies? Like with the corporate seal and everything? I guess for those that have them, you'll have to scan and send.

Or are they asking us to make up fake ones and send it in? And isn't that bordering on illegal, forging official documents?? I'm not going to be the first to try, that's for sure.

Putting a condition like that, I don't think they're expecting everyone to respond. But perhaps, if they want to put an official list of distributors up on their site, they don't want made up names.

Either that or they *are* expecting everyone to respond sorta, and they will simply accept anyone. After all, if multitudes of people become available to further their product line, they might be willing to sidestep some inconveniences... like verification. Might add to the shadiness of their goals.

Perhaps we could doctor up some documents that look authentic for our fake companies (This is for a movie and Hollywierd doctors things up all the time).

Why ask for these credentials on a website that is widely believed to be connected to a game?

If you don't own a company, don't fucking contact them. It's obvious that this is about distributing a real Slusho drink...

I am in no way convinced that this is for distributing a "real" Slusho! machine. The legalities (and expense) of a marketing campaign at this level (real machines, product, distribution, weekly supplies, administration and eventual retrieval of machines) would be a nightmare.

More product tie-ins are done with large corporations (McDonalds et al) that have their own disbursement infrastructure for "blockbuster" style movies after much negotiation and usually for specifically targeted demographics.

The real-world "buzz" for this film is not nearly large enough for a marketing campaign of this nature.

just my 2cents...

Re: ferreal?

Are we in the process of making the marketing for THEIR movie at OUR expenses? This is getting strange.

Meanwhile, by the Bad Robot coffe machine:

Guy1: "Hey Joe, how's the marketing for 1-18-08 going?"

Guy 2:"Pff. don't tell me, those guys from unfiction haven't provide enough financial support yet to achieve a national distribution network for our fake Slusho!."

Guy1: "Man, what are they thinking, that we are paid to do that?"
