XBL gamertag- confirmed?

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

Heh, thanks. Good to see I'm not alone then. :P
It changed again - now its 6166342##7
Hrm, interesting. I don't have the guts to try calling random phone numbers (especially long-distance ones), and that still leaves a whole lot of possible numbers. Next time it reappears on Bungie, we definitely need asked whether or not it has accessed XBL right away, but until then, it could still go either way. Wonder why it would keep changing the number though, and why it would even bother with the first number (the one ending in 2000) if calling it did nothing and it was just going to change it?

With the changing number I'm inclined to think that the xbl stuff isn't actually related to the matter at hand, and is likely a hoax. C'mon, Vic from RvB? It's funny, but it's not "Artificial Compound Intelligence with a clear countdown-to-it-in-bright-gold-text purpose."

The Vic connection made the whole thing a little dubious from the beginning. Why would AR use something specifically Halo related when it hasn't really made any mention of other details? Especially from something like RvB as a sort of parody.

Also, if he's hibernating, why is he still communicating?

Ditto. Which is why we need to ask specifically whether it has had any contact outside of B.net since the creation of the Archive/Resource thread.
