One more thing here and I'm done.

I first hit the investors page with my Galaxy 10.1 tablet. After scrolling around, I came across a video icon:



I don't know if this is something valid or not. I did not have the background animation showing on the tablet display, so maybe that's connected here, but why would a play video icon appear in place of the animation..?

There are two versions of the background - an MP4 or an OGV video file. My guess is that this is a compliance issue with the tablet.

By the way, has anyone else dialed the number provided in the email:

**weyland

Pretty cool stuff!

edit: hmm..think I might have stumbled on something here. When you dial the number, you are receive an SMS message about a sneak preview of a new product with a web link.

I clicked the link and I'm waiting for it to load in my browser, which redirects you here:

http://foxmovies.starstarapps.com/weyland

Its the same viral of David 8's first light. Don't see anything else, but there you have it.

Yes it was dialed yesterday, about 30 (!) pages back there is an mp3 of the audio from the call.

I think I remember somewhere someone posted a link to an unobscured loop of the orbs moving around? im curious to see if theres any difference to the loop currently in the background.
It came from the source but unfortunately the current link to the video on the Information page is the same as the one posted earlier:

Yep, odd:

Quote:
Weyland Industries opens several new offices across the globe expanding corporate presence to Greece, Antarctica, El Salvador, and South Africa to name a few.


I'd guess at an oversight though. So much has changed on that page as mentioned before but again I think that's largely due to admin corrections, e.g. removing the list of military companies they took over to now say:

Quote:
Weyland acquires four of the largest existing defense conglomerates in the world.

I'd agree that's too big to be a mistake and I too like the idea of the "bad robot". I'd guess that's got more to do with the plot of the film that the plot of this ARG.

OK, so this might be a total coincidence, but I put the numbers for the two rarest elements, Eitr(119) and Tridium(627) into the star map at http://www.wikisky.org/ as a HD119627 and it came back with a star in Centaurus.

http://server3.wikisky.org/starview?object_type=1&object_id=1951438

Have attempted some obvious link names from the Centaurus wiki (Centaurus, AplhaCentauri etc) but nothing has worked so far. Will keep looking at it.

Earth (Space) Traffic Control is based in Antarctica in Alien.

Seems most of these are swiftly eliminated by the operators as we point them out, but some are not adjusted.

The discrepancies in Yytrium and Cobalt have not been corrected.
