I found an odd thing about Eon8 on another forum, which honestly looks like it is one forum member playing a prank on another, but I thought I should share.

this link was posted on page 5 of this forum thread.

Well, a countdown does not an ARG make.

Oh man, that's hilarious. It looks like the person (puppetmaster?) who created Eon8 is totally messing with shadowsun50 (from the onrpg forums) because of the ranting and raving shadowsun50 is doing over being shown his own IP address/origin.

Looks like our potential puppetmaster has a sense of humor. Twisted Evil

Any puppetmaster who messes with a Halo fanboy is alright by me. I think I'll watch this.

Well, I'm gonna go make a chatroom for this, but I don't know how to register it or anything, so I'll just sit in there until someone decides to help me out.

A bit more info

The ID's on www.eon8.com/security are the first 10 characters of the result of applying MD5 to the entry under Domain.

After trawling thorugh some forums, I found a posting at sandrabullockcentral.com www.sandrabullockcentral.com/showthread.php?t=3862&page=4&highlight=eon8. The user is x21b, as in Project x21b and it was only posted 6 days ago. The x21b's user page doesn't include any further info.

The posting includes the message '9PU10SGEY is now available for access' and a link to another page on the eon8 site, http://www.eon8.com/sbc

I haven't been able to trace any other postings or locate any other pages on the site.

Interesting. Both posts seem to be on boards that generate a lot of "WTF" responses, and he seems to post and then leave. Either this guy is messing with people, or he's trying to reach out to people that might figure it out.

Maybe he'll post on here. Smile

Or you know, not - because that would just give me a headache trying to figure out "did he break the rules by posting here?"

True. But maybe it'll give us some kind of clue other than MD5 hashes. Smile

Either way, I doubt he will. He seems to be working off the fear of being tracked. In both threads, people were confused and maybe a little frightened that he knew where they were coming from and had names. Posting here wouldn't instigate that kind of fear...it would probably launch a barrage of unanswered questions.

On a related note, there is a www.x21b.com, but it appears to be out of commision. Google search also returns a lot of references to an X21B skin for Winamp. I wouldn't put it out of the realm of possibility that this guy is the same guy that did the skin for Winamp and is, in fact, "just F'in with us."

That's a poster on the SandraBullockCentral.com forums.
I don't think it would be very nice to start bombarding her with emails.
