Talk:Opalescent Haze

Authenticity

I personally believe that this domain is not related to the real Year Zero sites. Anyone have any further information to add? (Apologies for earlier lack of sig; been awhile since I wikied.) Kjfasimpaur 01:04, 15 February 2007 (CST)

If Consolidated Mail Systems has it in a footnote, that's good enough for me. (Please try remember to sign your comments. It's just four "~" after your comment.) Heroicraptor 00:10, 15 February 2007 (CST)

Just because it's registered somewhere else it doesn't mean it isn't related. It *is* mentioned on the Consolidated Mail Systems, and one could reasonably assume it is a valid link since it came from a known website. However, I wouldn't put it in the "100% column" yet until we find definitive evidence either way, but neither would I say it is a definite fake. --Slyfingers 00:31, 15 February 2007 (CST)

My main concern is that the registration occurred *after* the footnote was outed in public forums. That makes it look like a squatter / gamejacker might have taken advantage. I'd assume that the real game runners have these things mapped out well in advance, to prevent surprises. I'm not 100% certain either, of course. Thanks for the feedback!

I think it is not an "official" Year-zero related page, as all the other servers/pages are running on IIS (check the http://iamtryingtobelieve.com/some404 for example) but the Opalescent Haze is running some other webserver (http://www.opalescenthaze.com/some404).

I think it is official, and the reason it's on a different server has to do with "Shatter36 are reading this? We need a new server" being hidden in the source code. This entire thing has been taken to extreme lengths, so this doesn't seem very far out to me. Jeff 02:50, 15 February 2007

Place yourself in the fantasy world that has been created. If you wanted an underground website, would you keep things visible to everyone? there's not a chance of me believing that this is anything but real. - Matthiasman 17/02/2007, 03:30AM GMT

Exactly what data is the decision that this site is FAKE based on??? The wiki is stating that it has been "determined" to be fake. I'm not sure I see anything that really "determines" this for me... - baser5nature: Friday 23 February 2007 - 16:01 EST
