 		I registered my email. No email from them yet. Also "liked" them for the citizenship initiative and
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
was quoted 3671 hours wait time. That's around December 12. Thought maybe it was Elysium's release date, but that's March 1. Sure hope we don't have to wait 6 more months before this thing kicks into gear.

Agreed, this is now an active trailhead website (maybe just for viral marketing / extended reality). I inspected the form for "client login" and it is not yet active (the form has no action destination) so either it is just for show or is something that will update in the future, perhaps to people who do "register" by agreeing to the Sony mailing list. I did not try the "citizen initiative" site.

Thanks, guess I'll stop trying to hack it then. Should I post a transcript of the audio from itsbetterupthere.com?

 		Still a relative noob, so lemme know if I'm being overly precious with the spoilers. Here's the transcript:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Hello, I am border agent border agent 03012013
Welcome to the Elysium citizenship initiative. Elysium has been offering a luxury alternative to life on Earth since the year 2097.
Elysium continues to maintain strict border control in order to preserve its exceptional standard of living.
However thanks to the Elysium Citizenship Alternative, you now have the opportunity to travel to Elysium.

To reserve your place in the candidate queue, and be notified once your interview is scheduled, please press the like button now. Thank you.

Your lack of response indicates indecision, an unattractive trait that will be noted on your record.

Please press the Like button in order to proceed with the Elysium Citizenship initiative.

You are in violation of civil cooperation bureau code 49869-221.

Misuse of a border agent's time is not permitted. Press the like button to proceed or exit at once. This meeting is adjourned."

The Civil Cooperation Bureau (CCB) is almost certainly a reference to the South African CCB, an apartheid-era government sponsored hit squad, as District 9 was set in South Africa and the film's director is also from there. Also, the site's source code lists CCB as a tag. My GF figured out that 03012013 is the release date of the film. Not sure what, if any, significance 49869-221 has.

 		Wow, even basic login registration is being restricted to US-only in this one, by zip code.

 		could we not have new discussions down in an archived thread? Someone did create ArmaDyne (Viral for Elysium) in News, in lieu of asking an admin to resurrect this thread. We could also request the two threads be merged, but until then it's better to use the new thread instead. Thanks!
