[EG] Eklipse Global (trailhead)
Trailhead or what?

Despoiler had a write up about a letter they got from the CEO of Eklipse Global. A google search turned up some weird weather footage shot from the roof of an apartment building in Mexico. Also found their web site http://www.eklipseglobal.com to be pretty ominous looking. Sounds like another omnipowerful corporation planning on world domination by manipulating the weather!!

Wait, wasn't that the theme from the movie The Avengers a few years back?

I couldn't find any reference to Xavier Reinhart, the CEO, and nothing on the corporation either. There are three research projects listed and a whole long list of business partners that seem super-scientific and high tech.

Nothing obvious to do here except fill in a "Contact Us" form which I did.

I found a dutch and japanese forum talking about it so it seems decently large.

Looks like it may be a predominantly German game?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I think this is by the same guy as the Conspiracy 08, etc.

Same host, same domain registrar, same site builder.

In your opinion, because I know nothing of them, is this a good thing or a bad thing or neither?

Ha! That's awesome! With Eklipse's homebase in Germany, we may very well need someone to be able to move around over there.

From another page's cache, also leading to a dead video.

Japan address goes to Festival Gate, an urban complex with stores and food and such.

What we need is someone with free international calling to give the public relations phone a ring.

Yeah, sure looks like the same person. I'm not a big fan of "let's make the entire page a Flash element", and their games give me a headache because they involve an absurd amount of research, but they are amazingly well designed at least.

The video on the site's "Newsroom" section says it was broadcast on ABC, FOX and NBC on June 24th, 2008 @ 7:13PM Eastern time. Anything special about that time?

The song in the video, appropriately enough, is "Storm" by Vanessa Mae.

*EDIT*
In their business page they mention an affiliation with "Weishaupt Group" in Bavaria. Adam Weishaupt founded the real life Illuminati Order, or "Bavarian Illuminati", in 1776.

*EDIT #2*
Their "Contact Us" page contains latitude/longitude coordinates, which is the location of "Flakbunker Humboldthain"...

Quote:
Berlin Anti Aircraft Bunker (one of three), armed with 128mm twin guns on four towers.

The core group under direct command of Mohnke crossed the river over damaged bridges and finally reached the huge Anti Aircraft Bunker Humboldthain which was still firing its 128mm twin flakguns to stop the advancing soviet tanks

Jaime Maussan

Angel Garcia mentions trying to contact Jaime Maussan (without success). Wikipedia says Maussan is a noted Mexican journalist and ufologist. Angel's email address listed on the blog is angel.garcia1985splatgmail.com
