- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+34There is a serious flaw in your logic.
The clock has HOURS remaining. Not DECADES. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+27"4 8 15 16 23 42"

Posted for information only. - MackPrime, on 10/12/2007, -5/+25i for one welcome our new overlords.
- backfire103, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18This is weird. Here's a ytmnd on it. It explains the history of the site. http://eon8theinvestigation.ytmnd.com/
- Xenoxi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+16Due to the professional nature of the site, and the apparent complexity of it, makes me think its produced by some marketing company being paid to shift a product, we'll find out soon enough though!
- BigTyranT, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13I would guess some kind of viral marketing.
For what? I have no idea... - jonatne, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13so? congrats.. your not going to it
"all of the kids on the playground play football.. im not going to be fooled into thinking football is fun
im smarter than that so im going to sit here by myself and be miserable because im too smart for that stuff"
your a tool - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Yay, more discussions with wild speculations and assumptions based on information that doesn't exist!
- aureliusm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11Lets hope it is the end of the world countdown...
Then I don't have to deliver the project next week. - Kajico, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10yeah but auditing doesn't refer only to Scientology. Auditing refers to evaluating, or investigating a system, or records, or some kind of data to get an unbiased result.

- Murdats, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10or a car made out of potato chips
- mikechml, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9Looks like it did
- alienz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Shorties I highly suggest you unplug your computer from the net. Your IP is recorded by every single site you visit.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Word. Viral marketing.
- Lewiji, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9It's definitely a marketing thing then... DomainsByProxy was basically designed for companies to anonymously buy domains for advertising purposes.
- scotty588, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7I can't tell you how much I hate that music. It gives me goosebumps and scares the crap out of me.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7If you port scan their site w/ nmap you'll see many interesting things. Notable: They have an open port for listening for incoming Shoutcast requests...
The domain is also registered in Texas.
Here's the nmap output:

Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 34.068 seconds - GeniusCube, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7X13600 is a reference to the human genome. Eon8? Dunno.
- Artifez, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7And maybe it's an annoying attempt to draw your attention for 15 seconds for someone to sell you something.
- shmee, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9http://www.eon8.com/cpanel
http://www.eon8.com/whm
You think they'd have someone setup their server without cpanel... lol - maxkelley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Just everyone make sure to know where their towel is...
- Hutch, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7At this point I hope it's at least something cool not just like a new cellphone coming out or some *****..
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6View source to see plainly
var launch=new Date('00:00:00 July 01, 2006');
which is midnight June 30th, server time, which I believe appears to be East Coast USA. (EDT Daylight Savings Time Zone)
The letters/numbers in the "Deployment Tracker" are simply our IPs encrypted. Sorry kids ! - vegasbright, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6well then I guess the marketing team has done their job, at least on you.
- mc1123, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6the viral marketing of DOOM!
- spooq, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6@Knightly
You be the first against the wall when the revolution comes in 16 hours time! - GeniusCube, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6If anyone wants me I will be in the bunker at the bottom of my garden. Something strikes me as strange about that deployment map though. Something familiar.
- analgesia, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7If you look at the counter the event will take place at 20060701 04:00 GMT
The site refers to 0700 hours, 20060630. That means they are in timezone GMT -21 !!!
They must be from some kind of alternate spacetime. - heffer2k02, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6If it can't handle digg then it's not gonna handle the traffic leading up to zero. Either the creators get themselves some more bandwidth or it's gonna be a bit of an anti-climax. Unless of course, they wanted it to go down leading up to zero - so the mystery lives on forever ver.... ver... verrrrr...
- cyrusthevirus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Ah yes. So the world's gonna end at midnight (EDT) tonight, eh? That sucks; I had plans next week. ;-P
- skoles, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7I can't wait to try the Eon8 lightly-carbonated energy beverage.
- pap3rw8, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Whatever the hell this is, it's nowhere near me.
its probably just going to be a lousy advertising campaign for shoes or a sports drink or some other crap. - Xoligy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I for one am looking forward to this end of the world or whatever it is. Should be interesting.
- JakeMcMahon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5That music seriously ***** creeps me out now. Ever since it was used on the "unfunny" scientology YTMND. The whole score...just scares me.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5It's a scam, the video on it is likely part of the hoax. Those aren't major centers of internet use on that map, if you want to see major centers of internet use go to a real tracking site like Google.... and major cyberterrorist activity, that leaves out the middle east yeah, right.
- GeniusCube, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5An invaluable contribution. You found the Gif...
- D4RKfantasy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8Does anyone else here get chills when they hear that beat, for a YTMND like that one? It makes everything sound very serious.
I'm going to unplug my pc from the net when this timer gets close. - superterran, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I think the more important question is 'Why would I care what eon8 is?'
Then answer? It's not OSX.5 lepord or Windows Vista... I don't. - Xoligy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5What's to say they didn't fake them? Simply manually put them in the database?

Looks like hex, but no, its odd length.
My initial guess is that if you decode these insome method they will give you the user/password to access secure.eon8.com
Anyone want to take a crack at figuring it out? - oOLiquidNightOo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4huh. the apocalypse will have it's very own stylish website. who knew?
- hammerattack, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Don't you just love when your Internet surfing time is coopted by some viral marketing campaign which tries to subvert your conscious will? I'm so not caring about this yet.
- Shorties, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Interesting theory, I mean the transformers trailer did just come out yesterday, and it has that same vibe as the transformers trailer.
- theonlybigboss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4well from what i can tell, it might be the countdown to when Greenland will try to take over the world,
cause if you notice there no Greenland on the map,
the red dots must represent where they are going to attack first >_>
get your guns ready - Engage, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6It's gonna be a car or maybe potato chips.
- ZMoney, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4XENU is coming...all hail the dark lord :D
