Rogue: Yeah yeah yeah. Like I've told most of my friends, you can argue that its cheesy, but its still great. You just can't take it totally serious. The Clark / Superman disappearing at the same time thing did kind of bother me though. But the way people can't tell them apart, just kind of brings me a chuckle. 
I thought the new actor for Superman did a fantastic job though. (Last edited by Racer Xeo on 06-30-06 10:52 PM) |

Wow. I thought of Mysterio as ... Calisto. |
Like I said, it's been so long.
But yeah, I'd love to see Mysterio. Doesn't he kill MJ in one of the comics, or something like that? (Last edited by Racer Xeo on 06-30-06 11:25 PM) (restricted) |

I just have this little worry in me, that it could possibly have some to do with Net Neutrality? Assuming, it could be serious.
|
But I'm really not too worried about it. Just interested. (restricted) |

I wonder if someone can really do that though?
|
But, that does make sense ... "Hey, keep on looking at this countdown. When its done, you're screwed!" I'll close it and just "find out" what it is from others I guess. Yikes. :p (restricted) | (restricted) |

Quote I got from someone:
|
(from the site) {eon8} Complete As of July 1st, 2006, the E8 Project has completed. The purpose of this project was to determine the reactions of the internet public to lack of information. History The domain eon8.com was chosen, as it is short, easily remembered, and eon9 was already registered. It was originally posted on www.msfn.org, but was promptly removed as 'spam'. It was enough time for it to be copied to other forums throughout December 2005. Results We were amazed to discover that the site was instantly linked with terrorism, simply for the fact that it seems mysterious. Evil was the number one first impression people had of the site, in spite of the fact that there are no threats on the site. The only thing Eon 8 says is "We don't want you here". Nothing else. Other less disappointing opinions were social experimentation (which was correct), James Bond movie viral marketing, and promotions for video games. For many people, being faced with a countdown timer was an instant reason to try to shut down or hack the site. This is a worrying reaction, that if someone doesn't understand something they must destroy it. As a result, the servers have been hit quite hard these last few days, but luckily 99% of the 'hackers' could easily be described as 'l4me n00bs'. Another worrying example of paranoia was how quickly people would jump to conclusions, such as telephoning the registered owner of a dog seen in a photograph on a server that hosts a page that links to eon8. Surprises The folks at Unfiction.com were the most resourceful and inventive, they successfully managed to decrypt several of the 'codes' on the site, forcing them to be re-encrypted using more secure methods. FAQ What about eon5.com? Nothing to do with us. Pure coincidence, but worked in our favor. What about the 8th eon being the end of the world? We picked Eon 8 because Eon 9 was already taken. We didn't know about the significance of this. Eon is a cool sounding word! Why July 1st? We didn't know how long it would take to get the word out using our subtle promotion methods. We allowed over 6 months. What do the codes on the site mean? They're mostly randomly generated integers encrypted with md5, but with certain letters removed and replaced. The Logs page is simply based on the current timestamp, encrypted and modified. You can't decrypt them, they really are random numbers. What is the Deployment Map? They're dots placed over major cities and several random locations, it was done mostly from memory. The random gif filename is an added touch to force a slight delay on loading, which looks more impressive in Internet Explorer, but not as much in Firefox. What's the password? There isn't one. If you did somehow manage to get in, you'd see an empty folder with a single text file that says "This is a decoy folder. Please connect to the internal secure network". Can I see your website statistics? Yes, click here. Are you anything to do with Scientology? Did you see anything talking about a Free Personality Test or Xenu? Use your brain. Who are you, really? The most I can tell you is I am a 23 year old web designer from Florida named Mike. I can't narrow it down anymore than that. When I say 'we', I really mean 'me'. Conclusions People take things too seriously and panic over the most trivial things. But at the same time there are many people out there who think things through without jumping to conclusions. You can't let pointless speculation rule your lives and force you to live in fear. In Closing Thanks to everyone who kept things interesting, especially to the folks at unfiction. Sorry there is no ARG for you to play, but at least you had fun while it lasted. Click here for one Final Message from Eon 8 BE HAPPY THE END Sincerely, x21b Happy birthday, mtcaptain. From 'ls224' (aka x21b). Yes that really was me in the #eon-8 channel

The only question I pose now is, why? Why would someone care to do this?
|
I mean, the guy was just by himself. Its not like he was taking notes or is calculating statistics or anything. Just looks like he was like "Hey, what the heck?!"
