Re: The "Vic Incident"
And here's a thought...
My understanding is that the original GT of "AdjutantReflex" mysteriously changed to some characters followed by a phone number...
Sounds like someone at XBL Administration got ticked at the bogus registration and forcefully changed the gamertag to initials and the phone number that registered the account.
But I've not seen the full details on this event, so this is a partially uninformed leap.

Don't dial random, Halo-related numbers. If you call a legit number that is just Joe Schmoe, you'll get long distance charges and piss some people off that have nothing to do with this.

3of9: The "phone number" on the XBL account is invalid. Doesn't work. All that is left there is the phone number leading to vic.
Bovine: Free long distance for me, but I didn't call.

So if I've got this straight the gamertag "AdjutantReflex" changed to "FNC013575663331" and that is what we see there now with a partial phone number?

Correct. The motto read "CompoundIntelligence" until this morning.

Re: The "Vic Incident"
Correct. I don't know how the 000 was derived for the last 3 numbers.
Also, the IRC has changed from the channel I posted to the server irc.chat-solutions.org in channel #halo.

Re: The "Vic Incident"
Alright Im one of the ones that found the Vic Number. When the account logged off yestarday like on Bunige boards it was delated expcet for those that still had it on its friends list. For a short period it changed to FNC then it went back to AR.
Since yestarday it has been poping online and offline at random hours. If you look online it might say 1 hour, if you look on xbox it says like 6. its very odd.
The thing is I went to my xbox and seen it was online 1 min ago I was pissed cause I missed it but when I looked at his gamer modo it changed from Compound Intellgence to Comm- Then the number.
It was like that for a few minutes then it changed to the phone number with the last numbers ###.

Re: The "Vic Incident"
I think if an official Xbox guy really did find he was a fake, I think they would have just deleted the account. I seriously doubt that posting the guy's phone number is even remotely legal.

Re: The "Vic Incident"
If you go to the Mega Man description, it gives a website for backward compatibility. When going to that, there is instructions for burning a cd/dvd off of xbox.com. Might that have something to do with this?
