60023101

From 667 Dark Avenue

60023101 was a mystery wrapped in an enigma buried in a stupid idea. A mysterious, password-protected board with several sinister URLs, when it first materialised in Ruefully Restricted, all questions and references to it were deleted. This quickly made it an object of derision, and it and the upper staff were famously mocked by The 667er. After this, it vanished for a while, before reappearing, accompanied by obscure quotes that also appeared in the news fader. It moved around 667, changing quotes all the while, and people eventually realised that it was a contest, a mystery to be solved.

[edit] The Truth

60023101 reversed is 10132006 - or 10/13/2006, the release date of final ASOUE book The End. The passwords to the board were all ASOUE references, many of which would have been obvious had they not used spaces and capital letters. Consequently, most people's guesses were far more complicated than they needed to be. It was eventually revealed that the board was created by Tragedy to select a new administrator for 667. Unfortunately, the winner, who guessed the password correctly within the final week, was All Due Respect, and her promotion to administrator position caused nearly three months of controversy.

[edit] The Present Day

60023101 was opened to the public mainly so that people could ask Tragedy questions about his decisions. All Due Respect tried to archive it by making it a subboard in Awfully Ancient Archives, but people can still post in it. The returned Tragedy has yet to rectify the situation.
