All it takes is one ring to incur a fee, if you call a number back on your cell phone, and the local Better Business Bureau is warning consumers.
It's called the '1-ring' scam, and if your curiosity gets the best of you, you could become a victim. It works like this: your cell phone usually rings only once before the call is disconnected. Carmen Million, president of the local Better Business Bureau, says if you call the number back to see who it is, you'll get charged a fee.
"When people contact that number back, they are immediately charged a $19.95 fee and then for every minute they stay after that on the phone, they're charged $9 a minute, and basically, what consumers don't realize is that they're calling a foreign country... that's what these scammers are wanting you to do," said Million. Million suggests rather than dial the number, Google it on the Internet and try to find out where it originates. "If you receive a call from a number you're not familiar with, don't immediately contact them back. Investigate the number. You can Google it. You can call the Better Business Bureau, but definitely investigate before you return that call," said Million. Also, she suggests immediately calling your cell phone provider, if you think you're a victim. That way you're more likely to avoid charges on your bill.
"Once you receive your bill, you should see a charge, and the best thing to do is call your cell phone company and report it to them that you've been scammed, and because they are investigating these types of scam,s and they are not only hitting our area, but we do know they are hitting other consumers around the world," said Million.
The call area codes include 268, 473, 809, 876 and 284. Though she says some calls may be domestic. The main message: when in doubt, don't pick up or call back. It's also important to keep a close eye on your monthly statements in order to see if there are unauthorized, third party charges.

The celebrated singing actress will play the intimate venue Sept. 4-8. The evenings will feature direction by Scott Burkell and musical direction by Joseph Thalken.
Mazzie will be backed by Thalken on piano, Peter Donovan on bass, Larry Saltzman on guitar and Larry Lelli on percussion.
Press notes for Mazzie's new show read, "You think you know three-time Tony Award nominee Marin Mazzie from her corseted characters in Ragtime and Passion or maybe from the scene-chewing screwballs of Kiss Me, Kate and Spamalot or possibly you thought you gained a glimpse of her as the valium-induced bipolar star of Next to Normal (heaven help us if that is really her in the guise of Margaret in Carrie!). Come see and hear the real Marin Mazzie as she steps back into her formative years with an evening of fun and fantasy as we get inside the head of a Midwest girl and the music she loved."
Show times are Sept. 4-6 at 8:30 PM and Sept. 7-8 at 8:30 PM and 11 PM.
54 Below is located at 254 West 54th Street. There is a $45 cover charge ($35 at the bar) with a $25 food and beverage minimum. For more information and tickets, visit 54Below.com.

University of Miami center Reggie Johnson successfully underwent surgery on Thursday to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee and is expected to be sidelined for five to six months as he recuperates. "We're obviously extremely disappointed for Reggie," said head coach Jim Larranaga, who is entering his first season at the helm for the Hurricanes.

BARTONVILLE, Ill -- Police have arrested a man for the robbery of a Bartonville Bank Wednesday morning.
Bartonville Police Chief Brian Fengel says 30-year-old Curtis Beeney was arrested this afternoon about 4 o'clock, five hours after the bank on West Garfield Avenue was robbed.
A witness had spotted what was described as a burgundy Ford Crown Victoria leaving the scene and recorded the license plate number.
Beeney was arrested by the Peoria County Sheriff's Office and the FBI after a traffic stop on Dirksen Parkway.
Fengel says some money was recovered.
Beeney is expected to be arraigned in Federal Court later this week.

Woodcliff Lake, N.J. – July 27, 2013 . . .
The No. 8 Starworks Motorsports BMW Riley of Brendon Hartley and Pierre Kaffer finished fourth. The No. 02 CGRFS BMW Riley driven by BMW Motorsport's Joey Hand and 2013 Indy 500 winner Tony Kanaan finished ninth. The Team Sahlen BMW Rileys finished 12th and 13th. Both Turner Motorsport BMW M3s had a disappointing day, finishing 12th and 13th in the GT class.
"I am so thrilled for everyone; this win is great," said Peter Baron, Starworks Motorsports Team Principal. "We can't thank everyone at BMW of North America and Dinan Cars enough for getting us here in a week. Our crew was also unbelievable to get to grips so quickly with a new engine; a different handling car and the drivers were all amazing too. It feels so great that we are kissing the bricks again and now, with a 10 points lead in the Championship, this win could not have come at a better time for our title bid."

The Patriots released DE Alex Silvestro on Thursday, the team announced. Silvestro was called up to the active roster from the practice squad last week.
The undrafted rookie out of Rutgers was originally signed to the team's practice squad on Sept. 28. He played in his first NFL game on Saturday against the Dolphins and had two tackles. He played on the D-line and on special teams.
It is expected that Silvestro will rejoin the practice squad after going through waivers. The Patriots now have an empty roster spot heading into their season finale against Buffalo.

Labour urges review into West Coast mainline franchise
The Labour Party is calling on the Transport Secretary to delay signing off the contract awarding the West Coast Mainline franchise to FirstGroup.
Services on the line, which includes the route from Holyhead to Euston, have been run by Virgin Trains for the last fifteen years. The UK Government announced earlier in August that the company had lost out in the latest franchise round.
Labour says MPs had been denied the chance to raise concerns about the deal because it was announced during the Commons summer recess.
– Maria Eagle MP, Shadow Transport Secretary
The decision appears almost exclusively a 'bottom line' one, driven by a particularly high pledge of payments to Government.
First Group's successful bid of £5.5bn was significantly higher than any other bid, including the £4.8bn offered by the incumbent.
You will know of the history of franchise contracts being brought to an early end, at least in part because of over-ambitious payment promises that proved impossible to realise. There are fears that lessons have not been learnt.
FirstGroup claims it will deliver better value for taxpayers. It plans major improvements to the InterCity West Coast franchise to 'enhance the customer experience', including improved wifi and catering, as well as additional services and more seats and reducing standard anytime fares by 15% on average.
– Bob Crow, leader of the RMT transport union
The shambolic handling of the West Coast franchise has not only left 800 of our members' jobs hanging by a thread but has also exposed the chaos right at the heart of the Transport Department and the insanity of government rail policy which revolves around a poisonous cocktail of cuts, fare increases and private profits.
The only sensible solution is renationalisation if we are to avoid the anarchy of an action replay of the east coast route collapse."
More than 100,000 members of the public have also signed an online petition against the decision, in a campaign supported by double Olympic champion Mo Farah, Apprentice star Lord Sugar and celebrity chef Jamie Oliver.

It has been brought to my attention that Cal Aggie Crit is not able to continue to offer junior races at their race that is scheduled for this month. I am waiting to hear back to see if there is anything that we can do to change this but it has to do with UCDavis and their insurance would be my guess.
For now, please do not register for the juniors race, I think it had already been set up so it might let you register but at this time they are canceling the juniors race. If you had already registered, they are offering a refund.
I will be back in touch after I speak with their race director.
Thanks for your patience. Kristen

Poured from a bomber into a snifter.
A: Slightly hazy, dark amber color with no foam head. No lacing remains on the glass.
S: Immensely savory, due to combined efforts of honest layered dark crystal malts as well as umami that seems fermentation-affected. Boozy spirit and light smoke/roast work to edge out minor mixed stone fruit. Alcohol is plainly evident--spirituous aroma reaches out at arm's-length--but well-integrated.
T: Begins sweet, with dark mixed fruit and treacle. Acidity is high into the middle, which influences the fruitiness in a citrus direction. Moderate roast emerges as acidity fades, along with fruity spirit and minor diacetyl. Wet oak contributes its breath to the finish where acidity and treacle linger alongside mild bitterness.
M: Medium to thick viscosity, slightly acidic on the palate, with moderate carbonation.
D/O: Like most other strong ales tempered in a brandy barrel, this beer is a jumble of sensory qualities, favorable and not. The most off-putting of its characteristics--biting acidity--likely has nothing to do with the barrel it was aged in, however. Still, the oak and the brandy are well-represented against what would be a very appealing sweet brown barleywine--were it not for the overpowering tasted acidity.

I got this a while ago as an extra from Shane. Thanks dude! Served in a Cantillon tulip.
A - Tan foam settles to a thin cap, thick collar, and splotches of lacing. The body is a murky, turbid medium-dark brown body. Nice head, but ugly body.
S - Smells like a lot of brown malt, with milk chocolate, caramel, and nuttiness to it. Brandy and oak presence are on the lighter side of things, but impart a nebulous fruitiness to the caramel, honey, and cocoa malt bill.
T - Reminds me of malted milk balls, with notes of caramel, honey, and treacle, and fruitiness from both brandy and English ale yeast. Oak shows up in the finish a bit more.
M - Medium body that seems a tad undersized for 11%. Soft carbonation, creamy texture, and fairly low tannin presence for a barrel-aged beer. Fairly mellow for the ABV.
D - A pleasant beer in small doses. It's sweet, but not cloying although I can imagine it would start to fatigue after 6-8oz. Alcohol is well-hidden. I could have gone for a tiny bit more oak to balance the sweetness, as the flavor profile is more English than American. Best beer I've had from this brewery, so I hope they make it again.

Big thank you to mrbubbler for this 2011, b1 bottle!!
Appearance. Pours a murky reddish brown with some orange-amber coming through at the edges.Topped with a half finger of pale khaki head.
Smell. Big brown sugar, orange rind and caramel, some woody booze and slightly vinous.
Taste. Sweet brown sugar and lightly tangy oranges complete with the rind, and a decent amount of brandy and old dank wood.
Mouthfeel. On the low side of full bodied, low+ carbonation.
Overall. A good barleywine but not as smooth as I like them. Big flavours for sure.

2011 vintage acquired as an extra in a trade w/ Skrip. Thanks so much man!
A- Pours a dark amber/brown with ruby hues around the edges. A finger of off-white head dissipates to a thin cover that leaves some lacing.
S- The aroma is almost braggot like, with loads of rich honey, and a strong brandy presence. Sweet malt, prunes, and a bit of earthy hops are detected.
T- The taste is very mellow, with most flavors being subtle rather than in your face. Only a touch of honey is present early, but more later on. Some overripe apple and sweet malt in the middle, followed by brandy, a healthy dose of booze, and a bitter hop bite at the end.
M- The mouthfeel is not as thick as expected, but fine for the style. Very light carbonation, and it leaves a viscous coating on the mouth.
O- For the first brandy barrel aged beer I've had this was very pleasant. Perhaps a bit more subtle in flavor and abundant in booze than I would like, but I'd still drink this again if given the chance!

Bomber. 2011. Shared with mulder1010 and MrKennedy. Reveiwed from notes.
Murky brown with a beige head of moderate staying power. Leaves the odd bit of spotty lace.
The additives are straight to the fore, with orange blossom and brown sugar residing over notes of stewed plums, caramelised dates, molasses, pungent toffee and bready malts, and doughy yeast.
Similar, but bigger and better. The brandy barrel works effectively to prevent cloying sweetness from encroaching, and integrates nicely with the chunky strawberry jam and orange character.
Medium, with mouthwash-esque carbonation and mild booze heat. Could do with a ballsier body.
Classy stuff. Great example of barrel ageing and additives being employed smartly and in just the right proportions to complement and enhance the base beer.

2011 vintage.
Pours a dark chocolate brown color that's completely opaque with a one finger yellowish-beige head that quickly settles into a thin lasting ring. Sporadic spotty lacing left behind.
The aroma of this beer is pretty complex with brandy barrel elements blended with dark fruit, earthy spice, citrus and leathery malt. Some dry, earthy oak, vanilla and a really prominent brandy character. Some boozy sweetness with hints of molasses, caramel apple, date, fig and raisin followed by leathery malt notes and subtle spice. Smells great.
Medium bodied with soft carbonation and perfectly integrated brandy barrel flavor. Some dry, toasted oak, coconut, sweet brandy and vanilla followed by dark fruit, leathery malt and sweet booze. Hints of caramel, molasses and toffee along with some fig, plum, raisin and faint citrus. There's some leathery malt toward the finish but the sweetness from the brandy, spices and honey overshadows it a bit. Just a touch of boozy warmth after the swallow but the high ABV is excellently masked. It's hard to believe that this beer is 11%. A bit on the sweet side but really flavorful and dangerously drinkable.

Thanks to Rhettroactive for this!
A. Pours a cloudy, dank ruddy brown. Quarter finger of cream colored head. Good lacing. Coloring is like a baby's diaper, though.
S. Roasted malt, raisin, caramel, toffee, oak, and a little tannic sweetness.
T. Caramel, raisin, some vanilla, oak, lots of alcohol burn.
M. Full bodied, thick, chewy, not overly complex, but good.
O. A decent barleywine with a heavy barrel influence. Solid, not great.

---- — ELIZABETHTOWN — The last three ballots aren't in yet, but the Westport Town Council race has been resolved with a win for incumbent Democrat Russell Paquette.
After the recanvass that added absentee votes Wednesday, Paquette's three-vote loss on Election Night was reversed, and he won, 276 to 271.
During the absentee count, Republican Timothy Sherman, also an incumbent, tentatively objected to the voiding of two absentee ballots by the Essex County Board of Elections because of postmark issues.
But Sherman later dropped his objections, Essex County Republican Election Commissioner Allison McGahay said Thursday.
"We will not be counting those ballots. They did not have proper postmarks."
That leaves three military ballots still out, with a Nov. 18 deadline, not enough to change the five-vote lead Paquette now has.
Two seats were open on the Westport Town Council, and challenger Steven Viens, a Democrat, won the other open seat with 288 votes on Nov. 5.
There will still be an open seat on Westport Town Council on Jan. 1, 2014, when Councilman Ike Tyler takes office as town justice.
He was elected without opposition in the Nov. 5 general election.
"Town Law (Section) 64-5 says that when a town elective office is vacated, the position is filled by appointment by the majority of the town board members," McGahay said by email.
"That appointment serves until Jan. 1, 2015."
Tyler's unexpired term will be on the 2014 general election ballot.

text: Change has been a constant under Pete Carroll in Seattle, but one thing has remained the same: MLB Lofa Tatupu is still the defense's undisputed traffic cop. According to daily team observers, after a tough 2009 season that ended prematurely because of a torn pectoral muscle, Tatupu is directing signals better than ever. "He never comes off the field," one observer said of Tatupu. "They're asking him to do more with so many different looks. What's been different is that he can play both coming forward and going backward." We're told that when Carroll is asked about his defense's best qualities, he almost always immediately mentions Tatupu, who excelled at USC under Carroll's direction. "The keys are his instincts — his first step is always toward the ball — and how smart he is. He's also stayed healthy. When he was out with the pectoral last year, it allowed the rest of his body to get fully healed."

Members of the Old Dominion Univeristy community are invited to the tour the new Research Vessel Fay Slover from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 2, at the Nauticus Pier off Waterside Drive in Norfolk.
The tours are free and open to the public. Faculty, scientists and graduate students from Old Dominion University's Department of Ocean, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences will be on hand to answer questions.
The new $1.3 million research vessel operated by Old Dominion University's Department of OEAS will be named for the original benefactor of the university's oceanography program.
R/V Fay Slover is expected to be turned over to Old Dominion officials in late September following sea trials. The vessel will be piloted back to Norfolk and a formal christening is planned for 4 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 1, at Nauticus.
A 1967 gift from Mrs. Slover established an endowment which supports three Samuel L. and Fay M. Slover Chairs at Old Dominion. Col. Slover was a founder of The Virginian-Pilot newspaper and former chairman of the board who played a pivotal role in guiding the paper's direction in the early 1900s.
R/V Fay Slover replaces Old Dominion University's 48-year-old vessel, R/V Linwood Holton, a 65-foot T-boat now docked at the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration's Marine Operations Center along Brambleton Avenue in Norfolk.
R/V Fay Slover is a 55-foot, aluminum-hull craft based on the design of R/V Gulf Challenger operated by the University of New Hampshire. Old Dominion's new research vessel will serve as the keystone for both existing and new programs in marine observation in lower Chesapeake Bay and adjacent coastal waters.
Construction funds are being provided from donations to the Old Dominion University Educational Foundation. The vessel was designed and equipped after consultation with Old Dominion faculty members who conduct research in the lower Chesapeake Bay and environs.
A distinctive feature of this vessel is its high speed capability, which permits samples to be gathered over a wide area in similar tide and weather conditions.
Twin 700-horsepower diesels in combination with a semi-displacement hull allow this vessel to operate at maximum speeds of more than 20 knots. This affords researchers maximum time on station, reduction of transit times, increase in the range of operation and will enable them to take advantage of narrow weather windows in Chesapeake Bay and adjacent coastal waters.
"We seek to establish an expanded, integrated, shared equipment pool that will be available to all vessel users, allowing them to gather reliable, modern oceanographic data," Royer said. The arrival of R/V Fay Slover "will encourage additional research use over the current usage of R/V Holton that is about 80 days per year."
More information on R/V Fay Slover is available on the World Wide Web at www.ocean.odu.edu.

Town hall meeting remains civil
Date: September 12, 2009
by: Robin Roy | City Editor
Three days after the leaders of the county's Republican and Democratic parties issued a call for civility during health-care forums, that call received its first test.
Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Longboat Key, held a town hall forum Sept. 11, at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall to discuss health care and the economy.
The majority of the 1,500 in attendance remained civil, asking questions of the congressman in an orderly fashion and peacefully holding signs, both critical and supportive of President Obama's health-care plan.
But there were small pockets of people who yelled at each other across the performing arts hall, shouted down people asking questions that they did not agree with and even arguing outside as they left the building for the evening.
One notable moment was when Rita Ferrandino, chairwoman of the Sarasota County Democratic Party and who issued the call for civility, took the microphone to ask Buchanan a question.
When she introduced herself, she received both boos and applause. She began her question about health care by saying that she's the head of a private-equity company and is in favor of free enterprise. Some interrupted her by shouting, "Then why are you a Democrat?"
That got a big laugh from the audience and a smile from Buchanan. And when Ferrandino said she believed health care was a right and not a privilege, she was loudly booed.
The crowd was mostly made up of those critical of big government and the president's reform plan, and they made their feelings known. The audience gave loud standing ovations when Buchanan told them he was going to fight government overspending, when audience members asked him to investigate the community-activist group ACORN and when one citizen said the "president lies repeatedly."

Man denies causing death by dangerous driving

Pensioner held over sex attack in Chase Lane Park in Chingford
Updated 3:33pm Friday 8th February 2013 in Waltham Forest By Daniel Binns, Senior reporter
A 70-year-old pensioner has been arrested after a woman was sexually assaulted in a park.
The 41-year-old was walking her dog in Chase Lane Park in Chingford yesterday at around 4pm when she saw a man gesturing at her.
He approached her and then indecently assaulted her.
As the attacker walked off the woman called her boyfriend, who then rushed to the park to confront the man.
Another woman, aged 50, who was walking past at the time recognised the man and claimed he had also sexually assaulted her in December.
She swung the park gate closed in an attempt to stop him but the man escaped through a hole in a fence.
But the victim and her boyfriend chased after and caught him, holding the man until police arrived.
A Met spokeswoman said: "Police are investigating whether he may be responsible for any other offences in the area.
"A 70-year-old man remain in police custody while further enquiries continue.
"If anyone has any information that could assist police, then please contact Waltham Forest Police on 101. Always ring 999 in an emergency".

It wasn't going to happen.
Not today, not yesterday, not tomorrow. We, the authors here at OTM, love you, the readers of OTM, but sometimes try as we might, we just can't make it happen for ya. Sadly, very very sadly, this was to be one of those times. Put the flags at half mast because, if you can believe it, there would be no Over The Monster Podcast this week.
Then Marc wrote me the following message over gchat:
Marc: So what's the deal with that garbage you call writing? Any way I can get you to quit? You're embarrassing me and you're embarrassing the site. Also, any chance at a random afternoon podcast?me: Hmm...10:35 AMMaybeI probably can do it at around 3pm PSTfor like a 1/2 hr or 40 minsMarc: works for me10:37 AMme: Ok, it's a planMarc: You're a failure. I hate you.
And thus the 43rd Over The Monster Podcast was birthed! Born unto the two of us with a primary assist to an opening in our schedules.
You may be wondering, Matt, what does this "43rd Over The Monster Podcast" contain, you know, information-wise? Well, to answer your question, "person," I'd say this 43rd Over The Monster Podcast contains two of the following:
1. Goats
2. Baseball
3. Marc Normandin
I leave you to draw your own conclusions. I will however provide you with, as a public service, the topics discussed. Because I care.
First, we discuss Adrian Gonzalez's odd but productive 2011 and the possibility of him improving on it this season. It's BABIP Super-Hour! Then we move on to Jacoby Ellsbury and his amazing 2011. Can he do it again? It's a definite maybe! Then we talk lineup construction before the total nerd-out causes Matt to reach for a handy-dandy People Magazine (thanks, marriage!). Marc wasn't so fortunate and over-nerded. Before he could be revived we called it a podcast. Exeunt!
You can subscribe to and/or download the podcast at iTunes and/or listen and/or download at our hosting site, Podomatic. Email us with questions, gum stain tips, least favorite sitcoms, stewed goat recipes, media inquiries, and general goat-related ephemera at email@example.com. Thanks as always, to Kahoots, the official band of the OTM Podcast, and of course thanks to you for listening.

In a sign of our changing times, a forthcoming white paper out of the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton school bears the title, "OMG My Boss Just Friended Me."
The study will add to the small but growing body of academic research into how online relationships between colleagues inform, and are informed by, face-to-face interactions at the office.
Eager to hear the results before they are officially published, I asked professor Nancy Rothbard, who worked on the study with researchers Justin Berg and Ariane Ollier-Malaterre, the obvious question: So? Should you and your boss be friends on Facebook?
The answer, of course, is not simple. Among the team's findings was that people weren't just uncomfortable getting friend requests from their bosses; even requests from their subordinates felt awkward. "It was just the asymmetry of hierarchy that made people uncomfortable," Rothbard said.
When it was the bosses who reached out on Facebook, participants in the study appeared to equate them with their parents. They had the same dilemma over whether to add them as 'friends' or not. And they used the same logic to arrive at their ultimate decision.
The boss's gender plays a role in an employee's willingness to accept the invitation. In one experiment, Rothbard found that participants were more likely to accept Facebook friend requests from female bosses when the women disclosed more information about themselves online. When male bosses disclosed more information about themselves, however, participants were less likely to want to virtually connect with them.
"It's the creep factor," Rothbard says.
Gender, it seems, may not only influence how likely work colleagues are to connect online but also how likely it is that such connections will help their career. A separate study, conducted by marketing firm Russell Herder in October 2011, found that almost a third of men in their sample said that being online friends with their manager helps them do their job at least somewhat more effectively. Only 15 percent of women connected to their supervisor said the same.

Lying to get press: the seemingly bought or faked Twitter followers of NBA Baller Beats
"There has never been anything like NBA Baller Beats, which is a true game-changer for the industry," said Jesse Sutton, Chief Executive Officer, Majesco Entertainment in a press release. "The buzz for the game is growing each day and it already has 4 million video views and nearly 700,000 Twitter followers. We are really looking forward to all the fans playing the game when it is in stores tomorrow." That quote is from a press release I received earlier today. Alarm bells went off. To give you some sense of scale, the official Twitter account for Assassin's Creed has around 130,000 followers. Call of Duty, arguably the biggest video game franchise in the world, has "only" 546,000 followers. It seemed unlikely to me that a smaller game from Majesco so handily beat the biggest names in gaming in terms of Twitter followers. My suspicions were confirmed when I started looking into the follower count for the game; most followers seemed to be either bots or shell accounts, many of them had never tweeted a single thing. That's what it looks like when a developer, or publisher, buys followers.
More evidence
There had to be a way to look at the over half-million followers to see how many actually existed. I decided to try a site called Status People, but first I wanted to find the baseline. Why not start with my own Twitter account? I'm active on Twitter, perhaps to a fault, and I've never bought followers or used any non-organic techniques to boost my count. The site claimed 66 percent of my followers were "good," 30 percent were "inactive," and only 4 percent were "fake." Not bad! I then plugged in Justin McElroy's name. McElroy works for Polygon.com, and hosts the popular podcast "My Brother, My Brother, and Me." He's a pretty public guy and does a great job of interacting with his audience via Twitter. Not surprisingly, 62 percent of his followers were good, 32 percent were inactive, and only 4 percent were fake. That's a pretty good outcome. Things are a little less cut and dry when you get into the bigger, official accounts, but the numbers are still telling. The Assassin's Creed twitter account was a little trickier. 43 percent of the followers were "good,' 42 percent were "inactive," and 15 percent were "fake." Call of Duty enjoys 46 percent "good" followers, 37 percent "inactive," and 17 percent "fake." Looking at the stats for NBA Baller Beats' account, only 5 percent were "good," with 15 percent showing up as "fake" and a stunning 80 percent showing as "inactive." It's important to note that the site only looks at a limited number of followers, so the data is not complete, but it's still a solid sample from which to draw conclusions. "We take a sample of your follower data. Up to 1,000 records depending on how 'popular' you are and assess them against a number of simple spam criteria," the site explains. "On a very basic level spam accounts tend to have few or no followers and few or no tweets. But in contrast they tend to follow a lot of other accounts." I wanted more evidence, so I then looked at stats on Twitter Counter, using my own account and Assassin's Creed's account as a control. In a month from August 12th to September 12th, I gained between 15 and 30 followers a day at a steady rate. Assassin's Creed gained followers at between 250 to 300 followers a day. Not bad at all, a steady growth of organic followers. This is where it gets weird. According to Twitter Counter, NBA Baller Beats had 214,429 followers on August 19. The account then gained exactly 21,321 followers per day moving forward. Never more, never less. Every day. It's possible that uniform number is a result of an oddity in the Twitter Counter's software, but the fact the Twitter count began to move up so aggressively on a specific day is incredibly suspicious. It's not a spike, but steady, rapid growth.
When you believe in your game, you don't need to bullshit
Deceptive business practices are bad news in the world of PR, especially when the story of trying to trick people into thinking your game is bigger than it is becomes the story. It's not strange that Majesco or one of its PR companies thought this was a good idea, what's odd is that numbers are so immediately suspect, and they were used as part of the marketing campaign. We reached out to Majesco for comment. "We are pleased at the reception NBA Baller Beats has gotten via YouTube and Twitter, especially given the support of high profile media outlets and athletes. As with any Twitter account, bots do invade," Christina Glorioso, CMO, Majesco Entertainment, stated. "We did not buy or instigate any followers, but since its been brought to our attention we are actively working with Twitter to remove and block any automated accounts." The New York Times ran a story about buying Twitter followers, stating the ease and low cost of padding your count for marketing and PR purposes. "The practice is surprisingly easy. A Google search for "buy Twitter followers" turns up dozens of web sites like USocial.net, InterTwitter.com, and FanMeNow.com that sell Twitter followers by the thousands (and often Facebook likes and YouTube views). At BuyTwitterFollow.com, for example, users simply enter their Twitter handle and credit card number and, with a few clicks, see the ranks of their followers swell in three to four days," the article stated. We can't be sure that Twitter followers were purchased, but the evidence is hard to deny, and that sort of trick doesn't instill much confidence in the game being sold. You rarely see other companies bragging about the number of Twitter followers they have, and the fact that NBA Baller Beats was supposed to have more followers than Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed combined makes us very skeptical of their follower count. If legit, this was one of the most successful PR campaigns in the history of gaming, leap-frogging the industry's biggest franchises. Unfortunately, the evidence points to a shadier reality.
