Dark Knight Viral Campaign Updates - Gordon Activation and Dent Survey

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting and don't forget to tip your waitress!!

Emails went out from Jim Gordon today letting us know that we’ll have to step up in order to stay out of jail next week.

My friend,

Indictments are about to be handed down. If you don’t want your name on one, we’ll need your full cooperation in an upcoming operation.

In case you haven’t heard, we are struggling with a bit of corruption in the department. I’m not about to let the Gotham PD collapse in on itself, so we’re taking action. We’ve identified a group of offenders that need to be apprehended. Problem is, most of these cops are hightailing it out of the city. But a C.I. just like you just gave us some information on their last known whereabouts. Now all we need is to catch them. This is where you come in.

Consider yourself on deck. I’ll contact you next week, and let’s just say it’s in your best interest to play along. County’s not a place you want to spend the rest of your life.

People also received calls on the numbers they submitted to Acme Security Systems asking them to participate in a survey and received a phone number to give out to others who would like to participate. The number, by the way, is 877-777-6197. On the surface, the survey seems like a fairly straightforward opinion survey.

But, if you check out the latest update on the Concerned Citizens for a Better Gotham website, you see this note:

Message from the Webmaster:

You may be wondering why I haven’t updated this site recently. Well, you wouldn’t either, if you were facing legal actions like slander charges and defamation of character accusations.

I can’t afford to get sued for hundreds of thousands of dollars, especially now that everyone who supported this site is “unavailable” or “can’t remember” they had anything to do with the site.

If I weren’t waiting for my last paycheck, I’d go on a little “vacation” myself. In fact, if you don’t get any more updates from me in the next few days, it means I did just that.

This whole smear campaign has been a real SOURCE of consternation for me. I’ll be glad when it’s all in the past. And you know what? I just might vote for Harvey Dent.

William Bucksworth-Haven, Webmaster Extraordinaire

Taking note of the stresss on “SOURCE”, view the source code for the page. You’ll find this bit in the code -

Enter those numbers for the survey answers and you’ll hear a message that I’ll let you listen to for yourself, mostly because I’m too damn lazy to transcribe it at the moment.

Since it’s the number that we submitted to ACME, I assume the message is for Joker’s clowns, but it could just as easily apply to the people involved in trying to bring down Harvey Dent.

Of course, they could be the same people, couldn’t they?

What do all of you think? Let me know!
