The "Vic Incident"

Leads that wound up being lost causes, having nothing to do with the ARG. Also, for threads discussing what turned out to be hoaxes.

I'm guessing either this guy got more than he bargained for, or he was screwing with someone else's cell phone # that he knows, and that guy got pissed. :P

So I'm fairly sure the GT is legit, so the number has some standing
Sounds like a bunch of he-says-she-says... :/

Hearsay is inadmissible in Court.

Why?

It's unprovable that the exact details of the conversation occurred, or didn't.

There is really too much random info floating around to believe anything without evidence. Lets keep it legit guys.

The problem is that the conversations over XBL are so out of character. There's even a typo >.<

I'm taking the XBL info with a grain of salt until someone can confirm that the account was tied to the AR on B.net

The typo really killed it for me. And why would it suddenly be talking about something specific like Reclaimers when on B.net it hasn't given us hardly any info at all.

So you can't make a typo without killing the entire thing? Relax, he's only human after all. ;)

Okay so this is the earliest I could trace the finding of the XBL gamertag:
nomis78 wrote:ok so i followed a hunch when the gamertag of adjutantreflex was posted to this forum
This was posted over on HBO's forum, and was the start to that massive thread on the XBL communications with our supposed AdjutantReflex.

Now, nomis: what post did you find the gamertag in? If we can keep tracing this backwards then I'm sure we can pinpoint it's origin, and determine if it's real or not. Remember these are forums, posts reamin frozen in time* for us to view.

*As long as no one made deliberate use of an 'edit' button :|

With this sort of thing, honestly, the amount of detail put into it, take every detail seriously. Even a typo.
