 		I sure hope something does happen with this game. It's been sitting there for almost a year doing nothing and it's been a little frustrating because they obviously put a lot of work into the sites.

Honestly, everything so far has been more of a viral than an actual ARG. I hope that changes soon, but I'm not holding my breath.

 		The movie drops in two weeks. I am starting to doubt the existence of any game; simply an experience.

 		D:
Agreed, there's something stupid about putting all of the related sites in big, obvious links at the bottom of a page... Embarassed

you and me both. there really hasn't been much involvement, besides my call getting put on the sightings webpage. I guess that is my trophy.

 		Freaky Phone Call
Alright, this is going to sound very strange, but I had a weird situation just happen with regards to this ARG. I called the "reporting hotline" to report a non-human sighting (866-666-6001). I made the report, then called my friend to talk about it. When I called him, the phone made a strange noise then... it sounded like one of the aliens talking from the movie. I, of course, said "knock it off, (friend's name), this isn't funny", but the sounds didn't stop. I listened for close to 3 minutes. It sounded like language with stops for breaths between phrases. After about 3 minutes, it hung up. Seconds later, my friend called me and asked "dude, could you hear that?" and I said "Yeah, what the hell?" We had absolutely no explanation for it and neither of us had done anything shady. I didn't think fast enough to get anything to record it with, unfortunately, but I thought I should share. Very strange.

 		With Christopher advertising the sale of movie props on eBay, I feel like ARG potential just got show way down...

 		Similar Commands/Hacks
My friend's dad is a professional hacker for some corporation, and I have asked him to help me with the l33t speak on the d-9.com page. Apparently, in hacker language, there are these things called commands. He suspects it may have to do with changing the url of the page. (notice how there is always that slash after d-9.com and never anything after it, as if we have to provide it ourselves) I'll look into this and let ya'll know what I find out.

 		No luck, but a good lead
Well, our hacker friend couldn't figure it out, but I just had an idea. Remember how I was saying that it's probably something that goes after the url? Remember this?

akdj3499m&^4342lkjdulkdjs*&^5sdr32230*&%%%$#@49823

I put it at the end of the url, and instead of the usual "404 not found" I got "400 bad request, your browser sent a request that this server could not understand" I figured that maybe that was different, and that maybe we had to decode this code and put it at the end of the url to make the site work. Idk, just a thought. Any ideas?

 		Well, if anything is going to happen (probably not) it has _got_ to be that "locations" tab on the mnu website. This could have been more fun, but oh well, I guess it wasn't a game.

 		It's probably too late to split out a topic just for blog updates. The last one posted in here was:

july 8 "The Global Reach of MNU"

Since then, there have been more entries:

july 23 "Thank You"
aug 3 "In Response To Those MNU Videos"
aug 6 "Arc Gun On Ebay"
aug 10 "More Non-Human Support"

and this Twitter seems like news to me http://twitter.com/MNU_Lies but it goes back at least to June, so I guess I wasn't paying attention.
