The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers (The LXD)

And unfortunately, it's not available in Canada... if anyone knows of an alternate viewing resource than Hulu *tsk*, please share.

So far the promos seem to say "US" premiere, so maybe it'll open to Canada+other countries shortly. Still. Dumb hulu. =P

Wow, notgordian (and to a lesser extent theLXD) all I have to say is thank you you may have just gotten my wife interested in ARG's. It's taken me almost 2 years but hey it'll be worth it Razz

Ok, so we just watched the first episode and I noticed they spent quite a bit of time showing the prom invitation so I took a longer look at it while my wife was busy elsewhere and there is a URL at the bottom (attaching screenshot) the longest view of it occurs at 5:30 in (at least on hulu.com, for some reason watching on the site itself was choppy for us). However, it appears to say ????????.edu.net which I'm fairly sure is an invalid address unless they were able to use edu.net which would be weird but possible i guess. If someone else can get a better read on it that would be awesome as I can't make it out at all. I think I see prom in there but I dunno. Anyway look at the very bottom of the invite, it says "Info at:" and then the URL.

ETA:
?g??i?rpr???k.edu.net

ok our best guess after working together is aseniorpromSPLATk.edu.net

I just fired off an email to aseniorpromSPLATk.edu.net , saying just hi. Just to test if it goes through. So far I haven't received any failed delivery status notification. I'm not sure if it's the right email though, just trying. Anyone else tried emailing it?

Also, I tried visiting the url http://k.edu.net , it seems there's no site for it. It just redirects to http://www.firstplace.com/

I've been following Cole's blog too, I sure hope they update it more often because that's the only way I am able to follow the story. (Boo country restriction)

GPS coordinates in the most recent LXD episode. Seems to be Fairfield, Iowa near a courthouse. Possibly an LXD HQ? (Also: letter refers to the LXD as "the League", making the whole "is it the Legion or League of Extraordinary Dancers" conundrum even more challenging.)

Also, both the box that was surgically implanted in Sp3cimen and the LXD insignia have the number "7" on it -- whether that's something representing Sp3cimen or the organization in general remains to be seen, as I don't think we've seen any other artifacts close up. However, it's worth noting the star that appears in both images has seven points.

There's a venue near that location, but nothing specific to #thelxd on their events calendar, http://www.fairfieldacc.com/

Wife and I finally watched the 3rd episode and we're looking at things on the site. Under Sp3cimen's Bio it mentions "Pleasanton Hospital". I thought it looked too boring to be IG, but my wife said check the hospital so I did and there is a very nice but definitely IG web site there. Was registered 3 days before the episode aired so it's not a GJ.

OMG that is so double rainbow!! After reading the i09 interview, I concluded that if it were an ARG, the gears would go into motion when they worked things out to release the webseries internationally. But here it is! Smile

Also, thanks AzureWolf for the reply. I received a Delivery Status Notification for the email as well.

I recently saw a trailer for "Step Up 3D", which is written and directed by Jon M. Chu, the same person doing these videos. I noticed the robot guy is in that movie, and I imagine some of the other cast is also in both.

My first fear was that this ARG was simply going to be a promo for that movie, but the story lines seem very different so I think it is a completely different story.

Ok the "Schedule a Checkup" booking calendar on http://pleasantonhospital.com/

Last night right before midnight I signed my wife up for a checkup (Since she found the site Cool

) on the 16th not thinking there were only minutes left in the 16th and nothing happened.

A little while later I noticed the date issue and signed myself up for the 17th. I instantly received an email

Well done, AzureWolf -- nice to see some progress! I signed up for August 1st.

Also, unlike the ColeWaters page, the developers didn't register with Domains by Proxy, so it looks like we now know the creative minds behind this: (hidden behind the cut for those that don't want the meta-information)
