Out of interest, how often do sites like this have an IM contact? If you want to flog something like this you don't want that sort of contact as it's too direct for complainants (not that I'm suggesting it doesn't work, I'm far too virile to require this sort of assistance Very Happy

).

So it's an ARG or a thirteen year-old with a stragely well-developed sense of parody.

The sense-of-parody (or Sop, as it's known clinically) normally develops after puberty has been firmly dealt with as acne can only be taken seriously and life is, afterall, so unfair.

Had a bit of a conversation with the good doctor just now, mostly talking out of my butt, had no idea where to go with it:

Going by the 'specials' page, I'm guessing we'll find out where this is or isn't going on Feb 14th.

Whatever this was meant to be, I've read some industry/blog stuff that is guessing that the early exposure of the McK agency as the people behind it and the scandal about the false wiki entry may have made the sponsors rethink their strategy, and it might not be going to proceed as planned anyway...whatever that plan is/was going to be.

This is interesting indeed - I didn't realize they had an advertising blitz going on. I actually saw the website a few days before it hit here but thought it was just a joke.

Has anyone called the number in the whois? 919-700-3310

She spelled Mozart "Motzart." Drool

Right after his birthday, too!

Maybe it was a clue?

Sounds (well, looks) like a phonetic misspelling to me.

I've tried calling the number several times, and I just get a fast busy signal.

919 is the proper area code for the region of North Carolina where the doctor is purported to be stationed, though.

Mozart, Orchids, Fiestaware, Depression Glass... hmmm... anyone good at that tribond game?
