Here's a link to an article explaining it.  It's a viral marketing campaign for Xbox 2 (or whatever it ends up being called).  A similar thing was done for Halo 2.  I belong to the Xbox-Scene colony, which is in the top ten ranking, I think -- whatever the hell that means.

The password to join that colony is 13897122'

And yes, it's really wierd so far.  There's nothing really to do there.

Okay, I still have no idea what it is, but a "viral marketing campaign" sounds like something I want no part of.

Feh. These people who think up this stuff are overpaid. How does a bunch of COLONY stickers promote anything when no one knows what it is.
bleah.
NO MORE!!
