Maybe after one of us beats one of the games there there will be a place to put a code? QD- V- WXPPC VTG ?


I really like this idea... too bad I'm absolutely awful at everything that is a computer game or video game. I hope someone is better than me and can try this theory out, hahah.
I beat the human one but it didn't bring anything up to put something in, but there is a leaderboard maybe if someone gets on that please try to maybe put the VTG in

the 1337 message posted multiple times is found when you type "mni" as your identification, with very awesomely scary results (and dangerous for non-humans). Couldn't read through all 30 pages, but What does MNI mean or have to do with anything?

Hey guys, Christopher's posted again at mnuspreadslies.
http://www.mnuspreadslies.com/post.php?id=377

Edit: Its actually posted from the future, which is kinda wierd, since if it was an error it probably would have already been changed.

Well, I have my report up on the tracking website. That is sooo cool. I saw the fugitive Christopher at my local mall.

Looks like a regular South African newspaper to me, no D9 experience buttons.

agreed, it's an old site and quite real. Did you see something in particular that made you think it might be new or related? (I did notice the side banner add with a large digit '9', but it's their telephone emergency number, if i'm reading it correctly, and not a district.) It helps to mention what you see/saw, because websites do frequently change.

Change of topic...
I missed it, but my dinner companion saw a bus pass by with a sign on it for "human riders only" and an ad for D-9.

New(?) updates to the MNU Main Website?

So I've just read...31 pages of stimulating discussion, and it got me hooked on D-9

I did some poking around, and I found this: http://www.multinationalunited.com/training/

I don't know if anyone's noticed it, but it's some kind of "augmented reality" type deal where if you hold up a printout of a file given to you on the site to your webcam, a lot of graphics pop up. Shocked

Dunno if it's just a marketing gimmick or what, but it might be worth checking out. Arrow

I didn't see this site mentioned yet... am I really the only one here to see it? (that can't be as I just stumbled upon this game today!)

http://newmooncomics.com/

I found it from a url written on a photo on the facebook page. I can't tell if it's a real shop or not, but maybe it's worth it for someone in the area to go take a look there? It's definitely IG as they have the alien information on their site.

There are a ton of links within the site, too.. Ive never heard of giving comic books to soldiers, but it sounds like a great idea to me! =D

EDIT: Maybe it's not IG, since it was linked on the fan-photos section... But part of me hopes that it is!

Hummmm, IMHO it looks like it's just a comic shop albiet with some sort of contact with the D-9 situation. I doubt the PM's would go as far as to set up a website with an active forum. Confused

Could just be another trailhead (is that the correct term?) for people who haven't already stumbled upon the rest of this ARG.

Yeah, that seems most likely.

Someone let us know what happens? I don't have a printer unfortunately, or I'd try!

>.<"
I totally forgot to actually say what actually happened. I printed one out at work Wink and I found out that the webcam display shows the picture, with a animation tracking it. It's hard to really describe, you've gotta try it yourself to see what I mean.

Augmented reality (like the one in the MNU training section) looks something like this:

This is from the Popular Science magazine.
