I emailed the address on the site a few hours ago but so far nothing

Steff said...

me too.. waiting for reply.....

Same here. (although it was just a couple of minutes ago).
But I have to say, allthough that Thomas Killen does have a IT bachelor, the above picture doesn't look much like Sam Thomas.

And why is his name Thomas (with an H), when the url is without that H ?

Anyone tried calling his number?
0401 078 230

I'd rather not, seeing as how this might be a real guy that has nothing to do with Finding 815 xD

Gater said...

this ist definitly not sam.
if you look at the other pictures of the actor, there's no really similarity.

you can see it on the picutre in this news.

Deneph said...

I don't think that's Sam, but if he is part of the game, than how does he know about the Black Rock? He would be the one who sent the Sonja pic with clues to Sam right?

dragossh said...

His e-mail is at gmail.com, not on Hotmail. I think this guy has nothing to do with Find 815.

Dynamo said...

Pretty sure its now part of the game. Got this message when i tried to view main page of the website:

"Hi there. This site isn't too active yet but you can check out my portfolio!!!

See it here!

Apologies for the poor presentation. This site will be really cool in liek 2 hours i swear!!!!1111one"


In 2 hours the next part of the story continues... unless its just a very very good coincidence...

still running through Website Checks to find the register of the site.

Yeah, I think this is a real person....but how did he upload that picture to the flickr account? very confusing.

Gater said...

on find815.com can you load you pics to the flickr account...i think that was this way

Unknown said...

Something's got to my head. On that previous mail that some ppl got as an auto-reply from Tom on hotmail, it had something to do that he was in vacation. How can it be, then, that his site will be updated in 2h?

ADF1990 said...

How did this Tom Killen guy first pop in to this?

By his photo being in the flickr thing?

ADF1990 said...

Sorry to double post, but how did we learn his name was Tom Killen?

Joern said...

i guess the connection everybody makes right now is the email adress with tkillen we got from find815.com to a picture search made on google which led to this site, after that we found out that hes actually the guy that placed his strange looking glass picture into the flickr book.....i just cant decide yet, but its truly a lot of coincidences right now.

Unknown said...

guys, check http://tom.sif90.com

something's going on there. there are a few folders you can browse through, download stuff and see some codes

Dynamo said...

Okay, back again, did some research on other names of people he "worked" with on the development of the games. Turns out those people are real and these thing really were actually made. I'm starting to get the idea he was a real guy.

Does look like he's a real guy, not sam

johnlocke said...

contacts deleted..
http://tom.sif90.com/folio/contact.htm

Joern said...

well if hes only a real guy that got into this accidentally he maybe should post a little thing saying that hes not connected, he probably realized were onto him by now...

KeepingAwake said...

I'll bey he inserted himself into this game by posting on flicker and he either likes the attention and wanted free advertising for his IT skills, OR he had no idea what posting on flickr with his real name was going to invite!

Unknown said...

he asks not to contact him right now, on the "Contact me" session.

caperz said...

Bob Ross called.. he wants his style back.. ALL OF IT!!! :p

I think this Thomas Killen chap is an innocent bystander in our madness, nothing but a simple 'happy mistake'.

Joern said...

this just popped up while checking my myspace

http://www.myspace.com/tomkillen

But notice, that page was created today. It could just be "one of us" messing around.

Unknown said...

Further inspection of the sif90 site revealed this:

http://team.sif90.com/

The page is about a game that Tom supposedly made with some other guys. It features a cartoony boat on the ocean. You fire lizards at the boat and try and keep it balanced until it capsizes. Maybe Im reading too far into it but it is a bit unusual of all the games tat COULD of been on there, its central feature is a capsizing boat. If you ALT + TAB out of the game while its playing it also pumps out a constant string of seemingly random data. Thoughts?

James Wilson said...

how exactly did someone stumble upon this site? I understand the tkillen email address showed up in an email. But how was the connection made to jump from that to this website? This guys picture shows up on the official flickr 815 website, and he has a facebook account which is friends with sam's official 815 facebook account. It is also really weird he makes interactive games. Perhaps he is a real life contact of the creators and has been asked to participate in the game because of his skills in the realm of ARG and his close actual proximity to Hoodlum Inc, the actual production crew from australia who are running the maxwell group website for ABC. Too many coincidences, unless this guy is a fan who at the last minute decided to mess with us and create all these accounts and upload pictures because he is a talented IT guy, who is just trying to see if he could mess with the development of this game, and gain some publicity

Unknown said...

its a trap. lololol

Jonathan McEwan said...

did anyone get any further with the Website Checks to find the register of the site?

Smullie said...

at the moment his 'contact me' page at that site is empty. So you would think that he's a real guy and nothing to do with find815.

But, the mail (zkillen_99) appeared to be from a Tom (friendly). So Zeke Killen, could still be Tom Killen and the guy is actually part of the whole.
Also, yesterday it was stated that in 2 hours his (new?) site would be up, now i can't even acces the site. Wouldn't that go a little to far, if he was just a regular dude?
