    ...READ THE OTHER DAMN POSTS >:[!!!



    eon8 is a site..with a countdown, the countdown was to something, people didnt know what, so they made false accusations saying it was a terrorist plot..or a virus attack..or an internet..outage thingy..so yeah


    the countdown finished today at 12:00 a.m..nothing happened because it was all a test to see the internet publics reaction to something they don't know.



    there.....thats pretty much all of it in a nutshell..

    I read about this somewhere else, and I didn't understand it until the whole countdown ended, but I thought it was kinda weird.
