Nope... Please, don't associate "Anon" w/ this board lol.
Anon are an "apparent" '1337 group of h4x0r2' who attempted to not only take out foxnews.com the other day but also billoreilly.com.

Sarcasm, among its other properties, carries poorly over the internet,

Well, I'm in. Its good to have something new and exciting to work on. Is it too much to ask that the candidate be a robot, or a ninja, or both? I think laser beam eyes are very important for a President as well. I can see myself writing in "Robo-Ninja 5000" for President in November.

I agree. Like a fine wine, or the love of a beautiful woman, sarcasm is difficult to appreciate on the Webbernet

Uh, maybe someone can clarify something for me...
I went to the site ( http://manofthepeople.ning.com/ ), hit "Sign Up", put my email address and password, and went forward.
On page two, it *KNEW* my name was "Nighthawk" and that I was located in Miami, Florida.
How the hell did they know that?
*EDIT*
Ah...

The "Confederacy of Shadows", or "Station 8", uses ning.com also.

first new ARG for meself in abit of time, so im intrigued. either they went thru the player contact area and got my addy, or they knows me, or they just plain like me .
anyway, im in on this and i <3 the idea.
someone asked earlier why someone would run a campaign with no photo or name? maybe the person hasnt been designated yet? and maybe the players will get to pick or even be this person? just spec, but meh.

Got the same email and only checked out the website instead of brushing it off as spam 'cause I reognized some of the email addresses in the To: field as people on here. BCC fail... Or win? o.O
And who doesn't put their name/photo on their campaign webpage? ALIENS! THAT'S WHO!

Haha zai....Never brush off a weird email if you're an ARGer. (I learned that the hard way.)
I think it's something more than just a campaign, from that 'More than meets the eye' message. I'm not trusting anything yet.

I think we should TIVO the debate to look for kloos. There may be a secret message in the way the candidates stand or they could blink in morse code!
