However, when June 21 comes and goes without incident, I wouldn't be at all surprised if a game is soon released, out of necessity. I expect it's being hurriedly produced, even as we speak.

Yes this was real. I remember seeing the scrolling binary code. What we haven't decoded is the damn second bar code.
(The first was blackjackisgo). I might start doing the bar code by hand. Black is a 1 white is a 0. The bar thickness lets you know how many zeros or ones. |

At the moment the site seems to be grasping at straws, resorting to F5 games, which is so far below what it initially was doing. They even added a second clock when the first one was basically outed as nonsense.
What is currently going on is not being thought out in advance, at least not very well...so if it is to promote a game or movie, I expect either they are rushing to finish it, or this will all just be dropped so the movie isnt despised long before it comes out.
However, the fact that a random guy named Odegard was brought into the equation...a rare last name as fa as i can tell...and this guy happens to help run a company that does internet marketing, web design AND work for the DOH...thats just a huge coincidence. This guy, if not involved, SHOULD BE. His company certainly has the criteria needed to be hired for this stunt. |

if you're going to play that game you have to use the same rules for both dates.... therefore it would be 9+11+2+0+0+1=23. No cheating! Wait... 23? June 23? AAAHAHHHHHHHH!!!! |

My two cents:
If it were all a game or something to do with viral marketing, why sponsor it through the Telegraph of all places? And why is the Telegraph being douchebags about it rather than implying for us to not take it seriously? They couldn't have paid that much for silence for just advertising! Plus it just doesn't add up as there seems to be no link to an actual product. You can't advertise for a non-existent product. As for Jericho, if that were the case, why deviate from the storyline as the slides depict. In fact, the reason why the slides are so offensive is because they deal with real people in the world rather than dramatized characters like in Jericho. Instead the slides depict the "conspiracy nut" version of the future. Plus, I know there would be legal issues regarding that hidden message that contradicts the "this is fictitious" claim.
Also, something I've noticed that no one is picking up on is that June 22 is exactly 9 months and 11 days after 9/11. Coincidence? This coinciding with many other coincidences such as the military drills going on seems to be much more than just marketing. |
