The Dark Knight Gotham Election Board (Updated 6/9)

[FatmanReturns]

Did anyone notice that MYRON V. GORANGER, the guy on the bottom left hand of the Gotham City Clerk page, his name is an anagram for OVERANGRY MONG R.

I knew his name sounded weird...

Well, I finally got off my a$$ and registered so I could post. I am not sure if I have seen this yet, but this website is also registered by the same folks that have all the other virals...

www.semitmahtogeht.com

the gotham times backwards. Figured the hahaha times was the jokers perversion of the news, perhaps come election time, we will be treated with a GT update and then a two face insipred backwards version with further clues.

While I wish I had ninja skills, I am a 33 year old who sells copper and fiber optic cable to datacom contractors. I would take it as the ultimate compliment if someone were to think I had some inside knowledge, but alas I do not.

Another thought on the ninjas... if something like this was going to go live, liek gotham girl guides and such, but folks here sniffed it out early, would 42 ent switch things up and try to change what they had planned so this "game" takes the time it should?

Just a thought...

Lets not rule a gotham knight connection out here folks there will be a viral for it 42 will more then likely run it so i'd imagine the 2 would over lap and if you want proof that theres a viral for gotham knight,

If you take part in the survey on the friendsofharveydent.org (righthand side of the page), choosing the two top responses brings you to thegothampost.com site. The last 3 responses take you to an older trailer at the link below.

I know that the Gotham Post and Friends of Harvey Dent are not officially part of the Viral Campaign. They're fan-created, and I believe that the wiki has confirmed this.

I'm not sure about the Wayne Foundation site, but I'm skeptical. I don't know where it would connect, and it's had no prompting anywhere else in the viral.

 

[lollycop]

I dont know if Arkam is real either.

 

[AgentGraves!]

the Wayne site is a fake.

Nice find. I looked on this thread to see if anybody did an anagram on that name yet. Sounded way too weird.

And as someone else said, I think that Gothamrail and Gothamtimes will be updated too. Why else would they re-post those links on the new websites? Also, Roger Garcetti will have a website too it seems. Any ideas on what that site would be called?

 

[funkycrime91]

hmm the wayne foundation looks pretty legit..i'm a little skeptical about downloading the wayne family history though.

 

[assassinsilence]

good find guys

 

[swift360]

I just looked at the waynefoundation.net as well. It looks nice - but I dont know about downloading anything because of a recent virus (no pun intended) on my laptop. Also, I agree that as of yet there haven't been any other tie ins with this site - how did you come about finding it Krinshaw2?

Edit - the file name for the download is "newfamilyhistory.pdf" any thoughts?

 

[KSD]

How do you do a "who is" to check out if the sites are registered the same as legit sites?

Also, www.gothamglobe.com is parked at GoDaddy.

I don't knooooww. The download does not look like anything 42 ent. has done so far. It looks a little too "complete".

Screw it i'm doing it. Will report from a different computer if i get infected.

*EDIT* Holy crap this thing is thorough..check it out.

Yeah, I looked at it too. Lots of clues if it is real.

Anyway....someone do a "who is" on these sites!!!!

http://www.networksolutions.com/whois/index.jsp

Waynefoundation.net is registered to someone in Canada.

All of the official ARG sites have been registered by "Domains by Proxy" in Scottsdale, AZ so we actually don't know who's registering them, but if you don't see "Domains by Proxy" it's definitely not official.

 

[swift360]

so because it's registered by someone in Canada it just means it's a really thorough fan site?

-im not saying it to be a smart-arse, i'm just clarifying (notice the Newbie under my name)

 

[Anita18]

so because it's registered by someone in Canada it just means it's a really thorough fan site?

Yes. See my post above yours.

And check all of the other official ARG sites in the WHOIS if you want.

 

[swift360]

haha, got it - well it's a nicely detailed fansite then - thanks

 

[Anita18]

Indeed. They make me feel sane, considering all of the time I put into updating the Wiki.

 

[KSD]

www.cityofgotham.com

The whois checks out, but could it really be??? It seems so simple. I think I'm going a little nutty now.

 

[ActuallyRobin]

odd how that domain has been sat on for so long, could just have been registered in case.

 

[Miranda Fox]

www.ibelieveinharveydent2.com

- That domain was registered by Domains By Proxy.

 

[Nirvana]

Interesting...

 

[byte19]

indeed....
