Get an IRC client
[QUOTE=Snake31;20506345]Though it is said that the box thing from babel is unrelated, this kinda matches the epic situation and boxy-ness, therefor it is relevant.

Glad to see you here Zips <3[/QUOTE]
Yep, I'm making the rounds. This thread in one tab. The SA threads in other tabs, and the Steam forums in another.
[QUOTE=G71tc4;20506383]How do you join this?[/QUOTE]
Google mIRC.
I have three FP related threads tabbed and the Steam forums thread tabbed.
[QUOTE=Chezhead;20506369]So, what are all the usernames and passwords tried?[/QUOTE]
on SA they tried "cjohnson/tier3 didn't work, gfreeman/portal didn't work, and valve/arise didn't work."
they're trying backup/backup and BACKUPACTIVE/BACKUPACTIVE now.

you need an IRC client or something web based. If you are using firefox: ChatZilla

[QUOTE=Gummylamb;20506370]record for most users ever on fp was just broken[/QUOTE][img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/brokerecord.jpg[/img]
:aaa:
HOYL FUCK, last time that happened was during that Microsoft scavenger hunt a few years back.
People are TRYING to crack the name and password but people keep calling the lines. I hope theres at least one enthusiast who will stay up late when the numbers of callers dwindle down.

You would get disconnected.

scavenger hunt? you mean the windows live thing? naww, the last time it was broken was november last year i think (don't remember what for)
but i think this is even more popular than the live thing, but unlike that, this will die down within a day
[QUOTE=don818;20506376]Update, I started removing the noise and its tough, only certain spots have noise that can be healed. I think I might be making progress.[/QUOTE]
Its probably a radiostation that was tuned horribly. Nothing conclusive but there is chatter and a bit of what seems to be music at the end. Dead end so far.
I think I have it. It's a test of community, to see if we can all lay off the Dial-up line for one person to see. This is genius.
inb4 ep3 pre-order on steam
people would go INSAAAANE
[QUOTE=Chezhead;20506504]I think I have it. It's a test of community, to see if we can all lay off the Dial-up line for one person to see. This is genius.[/QUOTE]Well I'll be damned. In that case, we're all fucked.
:suicide:
Good job Facepunch we just set a new record for users online.
Valve you evil bastards, what have you unleashed upon this wordl?!
[QUOTE=Keychain;20506520]inb4 ep3 pre-order on steam

You know you'd love it though.
[QUOTE=Keychain;20506520]inb4 ep3 pre-order on steam
people would go INSAAAANE[/QUOTE]Yeah, and then people actually buy it but Valve was just fucking around and everyone gave their money for nothing because Valve forgot to do something and the Steam Store actually took the customers money. :v:
Oh, and the steamforums did say that the password was four letters long. Try some of those.
I figure that if I can't do anything in-game, I should give ideas and input to actually do something to help.

I concur.
i think it would still be funny for this to show up in the news - "local man gets 10,000 fax calls in one night - very angry!"

You can all tell your grandchildren that you were there during The Great Portal Mystery.

Cool.
That narrows it down to 1,679,616 possible solutions, about half of which make any sense.
