i was just thinking this, i'm probably not the first to say it, but if you're first in line at the first showing of Tron Legacy wherever you are, please do everything you can to have a sign that says "End of Line" with an arrow pointed in that direction. that would just be hilarious.

My friend managed to grab one of the cardboard signs that were posted on operation tron - specifically the blue and white game on sign. It was handed to her during the event - are we allowed to keep them?

The phrase, "...cold, dead hands." comes to mind.

most likely nothing-

http://www.iateyourbaby.com/ (nsfw-ish, not for the reason you may think Razz)
This is most likely someone attempting to get some free hits/ having a little fun. Found it by doing a search for Gnudson's Hollow (reference to the team building retreat). Only two sites came up (the employee intranet and iateyourbaby.com). Didn't spend much time reviewing the site as it did not look particularly useful (or in game). Just thought I would throw it up here on the off chance it would be useful.

(also note the post date)

Uh, yeah...

That's just someone on a blog trying to act like they are in game. No way would Disney approve of, nor is 42E likely to have a bunch of lingerie shots on an IG site. They also make an error of canon - the 'big door' encountered in the first film was not accessible via Alan's Group 7 access, nor whatever Lora's access was - Flynn had to hack in.

My suggestion: ignore it.

I'm glad that 42 and Disney has kept this whole thing at a fairly family-friendly level. I'd like my kids to see how this whole thing evolved one day.

Group 7 Updates:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Executive Intranet Breached - Can Group 7 Be Next?
Wednesday, April 7th

Our security monitoring systems indicate that various users have been accessing the Group 1 and 3 levels of the employee intranet remotely. Upon further investigation, we found that these renegade hackers were using the same handful of executive passwords simultaneously. This is an alarming development - Encom prides itself on providing the best security measures in the tech world, and yet we have been breached on an epic scale.

If you have any information as to the nature of these incidents, you must come forward immediately. We will be increasing our surveillance efforts on campuses worldwide and requiring badges to be worn at all times.

The intruders involved will be found out and dealt with accordingly.


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Security Overhaul Tops Our 'To-Do' List
Wednesday, April 7th

Our gathering in San Francisco was meant to be a positive step forward for Encom, but instead the occasion was marred by another unwelcome intrusion from above. Sporting an odd symbol on his parachute, an unnamed hooligan descended from an Encom helicopter. How did he access one of our fleet? And where will he strike next?

Worst of all, it seems that this jumper had sympathizers amidst the crowd. How they gained admittance is a mystery, one that we will be investigating to the full extent of our abilities. We've made key changes and put a renewed focus on accountability in this area.

In addition, we'll be challenging our work force to help us root out the source of this annoying distraction. Please be prepared to help with whatever you know about this issue when staffers pull you aside for questioning. Let's work together so we can all get back to our core mission - developing and delivering tech solutions to meet the needs of a changing globe.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
"Space Paranoids" Nears Final Beta-Testing Stage


Ever since Alan Bradley told the world that an arcade favorite, Space Paranoids, would be arriving soon via the internet, consumers' response has been thunderous. Fans are ready for the next era in Encom gaming, and we're ready to deliver. Unfortunately, our quality control efforts over the past few weeks and months have not been completely fruitful. "Space Paranoids Online" contains an alarming number of glitches, programming issues and general peculiarities - QC will have to be stepped up immediately.

IMPORTANT: As always, this information is confidential. Encom never promised an exact date of release for "Space Paranoids," so we can move forward with our rollout in a manner that best showcases the product and our company brand as a whole.


Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Encom Welcomes New Head of Transportation


Our recent press event in San Francisco illuminated some real pros and cons when it comes to Encom's transpo detail. Sure, we have increased efficiency 18% over the past two years. And yes, accidents are down 26% for that same time period. And, of course, our fleet of choppers is the best looking fleet in corporate America.

However, security and accountability have been somewhat of an issue as of late. That's why Nate Hardington has been named Encom's new Head of Transportation, effective immediately. His proud uncle, Kurt, is sure that Nate is the perfect man for the job. "I remember when little Nate was playing with toy trucks and boats. Well now, he's in charge of a worldwide armada of trucks and boats – it seems only fitting."


That sure answers the question of when we're getting Space Paranoids.

Nice! I look forward to said "glitches" with much anticipation! Smile

I find it interesting that they refer to them as QC (Quality Control) and not QA (Quality Assurance), which is the more accepted term in the industry.

Hey, I'm a programmer. Can't help noticing that. Razz

OK, so far:


Much like that dude in accounting whom made the passing comment about how cool it was for Sam Flynn to parachute into the Encom Conference, and summarily got fired by Hardington, maybe all Group 1-3 employees got sacked/sent home on furlough/have also had their access to their e-mai usel temporary restricted cause their e-mail was vulnerable/compromised by Zack Attack. Still, really cool development about the 2 other incidents of Sam basejumping at related past Encom events, though it would have been cooler for him to do like the 'reallife Spiderman dude' whom climbs private sector buildings and hoists/waves an 'anti-corporation propagandi flags/signs'.

It also appears Hardington's remote access link is restricted, you get the following URL prompt when you try to access it:

-> http://www.encominternational.com/error.htm?aspxerrorpath=/accessinfration.aspx

Well, looks like the internal investigation is underway and the ONLY portal we will have for the time being will be through our Group 7 access badges...oh well, time for our imagination to run rampant on what Encom's next move will be.
