looking deeper into the UEA website, I'm certain it's part of the game.
There's just too many links to half-baked websites, such as:
http://www.eknowledge.org/
http://www.ikeyword.com/
http://www.clickmove.com/
http://webtoday.blogspot.com/ (a blog supposedly operating since 2003 yet has just over 30 posts...)
There's loads more, with 'IC9700 certification' featuring in a lot of them.

I dunno. WhoIs shows the site registered in 1998, and Wayback Machine has records back that far, all of them pretty much the same as it is now.
A brief search on "IC9700 certification" shows it as a legit business cert.

I asked via messages (on youtube) if they had seen that website before and got replied:

We do not have anything to do with that website.
So, if we can trust our source...

I received the following message over YouTube from PHHInterception:
Quote:
I'm receiving messages again.
------
From: manageSPLAT outrightgaming.com
It has come to my attention that, you have been piggybacking off of my server.
who are you?
It seems to include a message that I did not send him, so I'll take that as a new lead. More as I find out more.
Hmm simple googling of outrightgaming.com leads to a page that reads simply:

DUE TO THE ECONOMIC SITUATION, OUTRIGHT GAMING IS SHUTTING DOWN.
WE ARE SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE
ORGmanagement
With 'ORGmanagement' being an email link.
I found a cached version of the site 9captured on Jan 21 2009) that reads:

Outright Gaming

Hello Gamers!
And welcome to OutRight Gaming! We are currently undergoing some maintenance as we move to a new server so please bear with us.
Enter Here
With 'Enter Here' leading to http://www.outrightgaming.com/home.html which now produces a 500 error.
So, either this company was 'starting up' in January and fell victim to the economic crisis (damn you, sub-prime mortgages, right ?) within a month, or..
..or we have a site to keep an eye on, or...
..or the PM behind PHH has actually been using a server he shouldn't.
Whois on the domain seems ot indicate this was a domain created in January (which could fit with either one of the three options I just listed)

Well....by my thinking...if the site is real, and it is really shutting down, some Youtube user leeching off them isn't really a concern anymore, as the server will die anyway...I'd say keep an eye on it.

Reeeeally thinking this isn't the type of ARG you're looking for...
The error message had an interesting admin e-mail address, "webmaster@outrightgaming.sec-reg.com"
Going to http://www.sec-reg.com shows an odd table with a link to Forums. Forums that have been active since July of 2008 and are full of posts for some kind of RP game they're all playing involving the UEA and all kinds of strange things.

I sent PHHinterception a message on youtube asking how I could help, and I got this in response
Quote:
PHHinterception has sent you a message:

I don't accept help from the enemy
I responded with

I know that I have done terrible things in the past, but I want to make a change. I want to help.
To which he replied...

Re: help
You killed millions of my people, and you expect me to give in after a simply "sorry"?
Not sure where to go from here.

sec-reg.com also attempted another game that didn't really take off well.

Welcome back, Natas. That PHH Interception video description code reads:

PHH Interception just posted a new YT video. I'm not gonna post a link because the PM (aka "lieoften") just can't seem to not post in his own thread.
I think in addition to "Tyler Greek" there is another thread that is linked to this game, but I can't remember which. Oh well, I'm pretty much done anyway.
