Hershey Teasing 2008 Attraction

Has anyone gotten an e-mail from webmaster@coasterbuzz.com regarding this? I just got one...

Edit - I think the number '25' may be significant somehow ;) *** Edited 9/17/2007 10:44:09 PM UTC by BigJim4Life***

It is.

This has been posted on that site that I can't link to. (I've removed the poster's identifying info):

Its not the link. The link was automatically changed when I posted it. I'm guessing that it is not approved to provide links to this site, therefore I woudn't do it without hearing from the site admin first.

No, not with the link. In the article posted on Nantimi:

"CONTINUING EDUCATION
Nantimi apologizes to clients that tried to reach us over the weekend. Management was off-site with Boston-based consultant Dave Allens, attending a last-minute, two-day emergency session dealing with issues like explosive growth, nurturing client relations, and resolving key differences in long-range executive planning."

Maybe it's not, but could the use of two-worded discriptions be significant? Maybe the anagram stage of the game is over. What if the new game we're playing is repetition? I just seems odd to me that they'd do that so often. IDK

TWO word descriptions....repeated FIVE times. TWO-FIVE ... 25

25 Contestants

25 Pieces

Think that means something? Could it be another puzzle to help make sense out of the picture that was posted today?

Seriously...would a park go to these lengths? I'm not playing along because I don't believe for one moment it's legit. Some tech-savvy coaster geek is playing one big joke on y'all.

So the link changed? Like the thread identifier and stuff?

Because we all know what the ********** part needs changed to. Even if I manually type that whole link with the *'s replaced by the correct domain, the thread doesn't exist.

Not a park. Someone the park hired. I doubt if Hershey is running the Nantimi site, but I'm sure they had something to do with it.

edit - Hey guys, watch this:

9.27.07 (Sept 27, 2007)

9+2+7+0+7 = ??? Take a guess. *** Edited 9/17/2007 11:32:51 PM UTC by Lee Grant***

^It's all just a coincidence.......;)

Follow these steps:

1) Go to DeklanMedia.com

2) View-Source on your browser.

3) Find the name (First and Last) for the author of the site

4) Look that author's name up on whitepages.com (he lives in PA)

5) Compare the phone number to the one at http://nantimi.com/iiiiiiiiiii.html

6) Now you know who is behind this.....

^How'd you find that???

^It was in that post I tried to link to earlier, but coudn't because the link was getting *******'d out.

Well, I tried the number. The guy didn't seem too happy.

Where'd that link come from again?

I saw it on another forum earlier today. I tried to post a link to it, but coasterbuzz won't let me do that.

So you're tellin' me this is the mastermind?

http://www.myspace.com/martyshaughnessy

Isn't this like a real life version of the 80's movie Midnight Madness? That story was masterminded by just a college geek.

Thats how it looks. The person making the original post sent an email to ckret@nantimi.com. They got back a "read receipt" for that email from marty@deklanmedia.com. At the time, there was a phone # on the deklan site. The poster called it, the guy answered, but they got scared and hung up. Then they received an email from ckret asking if they just called...confirming that these sites are connected.

That is what I got from the post. The rest of it, I found on my own. I thought it was interesting that the phone numbers matched...

Is there a way I can google this forum you're refering to? I need to see for myself what they're saying becasue as far as I can tell, the phone number is the only thing connecting that guy to anything going on with Nantimi, and all Nantimi had to do was pull it out of the Annville phonebook.

Sure...Google

Well when I responded to the e-mail, I didn't give my name, SS#, address, credit card info, anything like that. I was a little wary, but I want to play through this thing to see what happens...and I'm not giving away any super important information...

I'm not worried about identify-theft, lol. I'm not playing because 1] I'm not really all that anxious to know what they're getting that I can't wait for the announcement, and b] I think whoever is behind it is playing a big 'ol hoax on everyone. But it sure is fun watching everyone play tekno-geek ;)
