 		[TRAILHEAD/CONTEST] SaveMyHusband.com
Was watching CourtTV last night, and they had a commercial for this:

http://SaveMyHusband.com

Apparently, it's an eight-day ARG, sponsored by Applebee's and Suzuki. The winners will split a $25,000 prize.

The contest starts June 4th.

Just thought some of y'all might be interested.

 		Looks like a fun challenge.

HOW TO HELP SAVE MY HUSBAND:
My son Max and I will post videos on this site and email or text you clues to get you pointed in the right direction.
Make sure your SPAM filters will accept emails from addresses that end in "@savemyhusband.com" and "akarmcorp.com"! You might need to add "christina@savemyhusband.com" to your contacts. If you don't hear from us, check your junk mail folder!
Every time Max or I post a video on this site, we'll send you an email to let you know.
Each day, we'll put aside one main task for you to complete.
To complete the main task, you'll have to come back to this site and enter the solution to whatever problem you were given.
Except for the final answer, I'll let you know right away if I think you got it right or not.
If you get it right, I'll send you an email the next day or sooner with a new video, but if you get it wrong, I'll try and help you catch up.
If we get any additional information throughout the day (clues, hints, new developments, etc.), we'll send you another email or a text message if you signed up for those.
In addition to the main tasks, you'll definitely benefit from snooping around the sites we send you for added research.
By the end of the next 8 days, hopefully you'll be able to help determine:
1. Who is behind Andrew's kidnapping?
2. What's the exact where location he's being held?
All the information you'll need will be on this site or the other sites we send you to.
Eligible players who enter the correct answers to the final problem in the allotted time will split the reward money I put aside: $25,000.00.
If you start late (up until "Day 7") you can still have the opportunity to catch up and win the reward! You'll be able to see on the homepage where you are in relation to the rest of us in the investigation. We'll send you the next piece of the puzzle as soon as we can to help you catch up.


Quote:
You will only be able to submit your answer to each of the puzzle pieces for Day 8 twice after which you will be deemed to not have correctly answered this puzzle. Day 8's puzzle will consist of two (2) parts. You will need to determine the name of the person responsible for the kidnapping and identify the address where Andrew Goodis is being held You will then need to enter these two pieces of information by following the directions provided by 6:00 a.m. on June 12, 2007. You will be notified via email within two (2) weeks following the end of the Challenge Period with respect to whether you answered Day 8's puzzle correctly and solved the mystery. Answers to Day 8's puzzle must be received by 6:00 a.m. ET on June 12, 2007 to be eligible for the prize.

Potential Winners will be notified by email on or about June 26, 2007. Potential Winners may be required to execute and return an affidavit of eligibility, a liability release and, where lawful, a publicity release within seven (7) days of date of issuance.

PRIZE: $25,000 cash to be shared equally among all verified and eligible Winners (awarded as a check). No more than a total of $25,000 will be awarded, regardless of how many Winners are determined.

 		Signed up for this...

The registration e-mail mentions receiving e-mails from http://www.akarmcorp.com/. It's a pharmaceutical company where the husband works. You can poke around a bit there and find some things to do... but we probably shouldn't try to hack into their system until the 4th, right? Razz

 		Cure for the common cold?

Quote:
May 2nd, 2007
Committee Approves FreeviraŽ, Akarm Pharmaceutical's revolutionary new treatment for the common cold. After extensive testing, FreeviraŽ will be the world's first successful treatment for the common cold. Taking FreeviraŽ alleves all symptoms within six hours.

The drug is slated for release in late June of 2007.


If the husband was involved in development of this drug, it would be worth millions to another pharmaceutical company to get him to give up the formula.

Quote:
Andrew Goodis (Chief Scientist): Dr. Goodis is the Chief Scientist at AKARM. His areas of expertise cover controlled delivery of drugs, colloidal and microcorpusculate drug delivery systems, submicron emulsions (SME), transdermal delivery (topical and systemic).

Dr. Goodis has published more than 20 articles in various scientific journals and has written over 10 patents and patent applications. He is a graduate of Fieldling University, and completed his PhD thesis on 'Synthesis and Properties of Beta-G-Bicarbonate-Acetonates' in 1988.



Or, blackmailing the CEO, to be convinced to withhold the release? Cause what would happen to tissue sales?

Quote:
Mr. Tenbrook serves on the Board of Directors of Zendorel Ltd. and is an active leader in the local community.


What is Zendorel Ltd???? I found a cached reference to his appointment to the board. But the actual links are all empty (maybe these are future clues????).

I doubt these are ingame, only because the IP address is a completely different server block. The current set lead me to believe
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the website at http://74.53.99.118/ whatever the domain may be
is/will be ingame.

(rookie mistakes like sequentially hosted websites, plus a curtain breach I discovered, makes me glad that this is merely a contest of short duration and not an attempt at a full-blown ARG. I did track down an article about the promotion, which confirms in my mind that these are first-time gamemasters at work. Let's be kind.)

Sponsors Take Court TV 'Challenge'

(edit to add) -- I found the domain name for the above spoilered site:

 		Naughty, I don't really think we should be hacking things...this is meant to be played fair and square...seeing as it has not even begun officially yet.
