Does anybody have any idea why http://www.paraffun.com Paraffun an IG product of Tagruato is registered to TAGRUATO but directs to http://cloverfieldclues.blogspot.com???

Why would you register a domain to Tagruato and direct to you Question

http://whois.domaintools.com/paraffun.com

Just curious more than anything.

Dennis bought that to discourage gamejacks, i beleive. any parrafun website would be .jp anyways, which is ridiculously expensive, so it unlikely to be gamejacked.

Yes, to prevent someone else from GameJacking it - like what happened to BoldFutura.jp and BoldFutura.org.

I did the same with www.siteus447.com I got it and directed right to www.cloverfieldmovie.com - But it is registered to me through a proxy. I just thought it was weird that even the contact e-mail for www.paraffun.com is @tagruato.jp.

I have no evil intent on using www.siteus447.com as a gamejack though. Never did. It is part of my profile.

See, you say that, but (gosh, I hate when gamejacks look authentic enough)... are you sure BoldFutura.org isn't real? I haven't looked at the WHOis, but still... dang.... it has that same feel to it that Tagruato.jp has. It looks like it could've been done with AngelFire or Tripod or some free server like that... the templates not that impressive, but...

Great. Now I'm rambling. My question is, without using the search bar, I ask, are we positive that BoldFutura.org is fake?

No, too expensive. .JP domains are $99/year.

I am.

Now that Tagruato.jp is back up, if either of those sites were "in-game", Tagruato would have a link to them.
