		<description><![CDATA[So there&#8217;s a new guy on the forums that knows WAY to much about Allegiance drama to be a new guy.  He&#8217;s cheeky and interesting, and he&#8217;s called &#8220;The Hack.&#8221;
There are two threads so far, Thread #1 here, Thread #2 here (free forum registration required).
Obviously this is someone &#8220;in-the-know,&#8221; but who?

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So there&#8217;s a new guy on the forums that knows WAY to much about Allegiance drama to be a new guy.  He&#8217;s cheeky and interesting, and he&#8217;s called &#8220;The Hack.&#8221;</p>
<p>There are two threads so far, <a href="http://www.freeallegiance.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=54800&amp;hl=">Thread #1 here</a>, <a href="http://www.freeallegiance.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=54915&amp;hl=">Thread #2 here</a> (free forum registration required).</p>
<p>Obviously this is someone &#8220;in-the-know,&#8221; but who?</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s examine his post (I assume it&#8217;s a &#8220;he&#8221;?):</p>
<p>1. He knows of Pook.<br />
2. He understands squads (SRM&#8217;s meds, DSM is new and hasn&#8217;t won, refers to spidey by a fond nick, &#8220;many legged leader&#8221;<br />
3. He picked an IB quote (mmmmm)<br />
4. He refers to our marketing efforts (pointing to me)<br />
5. He makes fun of DSM for resigning (rather well done poke too, if you ask me).<br />
6. Has an old man avatar on the forums.</p>
<p>What does all this mean?  Well, he&#8217;s not new.  He trolls the forums . ..a lot.  He&#8217;s not MW (really, would MW poke fun at himself?).  There has been speculation by badp already that</p>
<p><a href="http://www.freeallegiance.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=54800&amp;hl="><img width="89" height="98" title="The Hack" src="http://www.cwrl.utexas.edu/~bump/oxford/miscellaneous/alcoholic.jpg" alt="The Hack" /></a> = <a href="http://www.freeallegiance.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=54915&amp;hl="><img title="Datanet" src="http://www.freeallegiance.org/forums/style_avatars/Big_Collection/army.jpg" alt="Datanet" width="64" height="64" /></a></p>
<p>Hmmm.  Does this quick to post speculation mean that badp is attempting to cover up his hidden identity?  Hmmmm.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s dig even deeper.</p>
<p>The image comes from a URL on a uTexas server from a username of bump.  Is this one of our Texas players?  A quick look at a <a href="http://www.frappr.com/allegiance/map" class="broken_link" >frappr map of Alleg players</a> shows a good concentration of players in the state of Texas, but could this just be a ploy to throw us off the trail?  Let us know if you have any more info.  In the meantime, we will keep digging.</p>
