| New voice system appeared on the original "Material Order Desk" (MOD) number, 888-854-2402, after many months of inactivity. IRC user bobdamnit received a call on his personal cell phone from that number on Saturday, August 26th, at about 3 PM his time. (He does not have voicemail and did not notice the call, so he does not know what the call would have contained.)
It's a voicemail-like system identifying itself as the "Emtanon Message Board". If you call this, please don't leave messages. I recorded all the messages that are on it as of today (2017-08-27 17:37 PDT): Main menu Starts with a dial tone. This isn't the same dial tone as when calling; phones will show the call is connected and the volume is different.
Voice menu You get this after a message finishes playing.
End of messages You get this after the last messages finishes playing.
Main menu: invalid entry On the main menu, pressing a button other than 1 or 2 will play this.
Thanks message Unknown what causes this (I got it by just pushing star a bunch on the main menu). After this it goes unresponsive and hangs up after a few seconds.
Now for the actual messages... Message 1
Message 2 This appears to be one of the Emtanon history entries.
Message 3 This appears to be another one of the Emtanon history entries. First logged Oct 28, 2015.
Message 4 This appears to be another one of the Emtanon history entries. First logged on June 11, 2016.
Message 5 This appears to be another one of the Emtanon history entries. First logged on Sep 3, 2016.
Message 6 A possible recording of radio station KXL. The 85 year comment would place this at least in 2011 if not later.
Message 7 Emtanon radio jingle.
Message 8 A recording of Standing on the Corner, a song from 1956.
Message 9 A song that's been used before, I think? Message 10 Some sort of jingle. Message 11 "KKM50" radio channel slogan.
Message 12 A mis-take of the above.
Message 13 About 9 seconds of silence with a single click around the 7 second mark. I only include it because it seems to be a message. Message 14 This sounds like a recording from a phone, due to the low quality.
There are no more messages at this time, and there doesn't seem to be a way to advance through them without mashing the 6 button. |

| New messages:
Message 15 This is a message I left that day. I used a text-to-speech generator to do it, and the way I did it ended up capturing the start of the recording-start beep.
Message 16 Today, at some point in the afternoon (my time), a new message was added:
It isn't much, but it's new. |

| It appears as though PM has removed your message, Xkeeper. Also, "What is life" message is gone too.
Last message now is the one where the lady tells dude to just read the message. |

| Yeah, just checked, messages 13 through 16 are definitely deleted. At least we have recordings of the one that was interesting. |

| They are now back and are exactly the same as before, so I guess now is as good a time as any to record them (well, soon™ ...)
Weird how they vanished for a while, different instance of the system?  |

New message on AS54. Says the following:
Followed by:
For reasons, I have redacted the number given. Feel free to join us on the IRC channel for the number. I have not called the number, nor have I been in IRC lately to see if anyone else saw or called. I will say that my CNAM lookup shows it as an unregistered cell phone assigned to Sprint Spectrum. |

Originally posted by bobdamnit Indeed! Here are recordings for posterity. Message 17 L0j1k has some information on this I'll edit in later.
Message 18 A vaguely-TTS-like voice reading off a phone number. I've censored the number and recording here as well until it's confirmed to be an in-game numer.

| I just received a call from 661. I was sleeping (which seems to be the only time OTP22-related numbers call me), so I wasn't able to easily step into SE mode. So instead I just listened quietly. The call lasted 2 minutes and 58 seconds, until I had to hang up because I could hear the damned loud af neighbor children coming down the street and knew their voices would carry on my phone. The DEFINITE same woman said "Hello" (said, not asked) three separate times. In the background, she or someone near to her was flipping through pages of a magazine or phone book. Some kind of pages which sounded very lightweight (like newspaper or bible pages or phone book or some magazines, for example). I have not yet called back. |

| It seems like the 661-565-**** number is unrelated and an actual person doing their own research. (Why they left their own phone number is anybody's guess.)
A new message that TonyTee on IRC found. Message 19 Emtanon Radio. This one is seven minutes long

| I called the 888 number last night and it did the usual 3 rings, but then had DTMF tones (as if it was transferring me) and someone picked up and said "Kinda early". I turned my mic on to try and talk to them, but there was never an answer, so I hung up. Unfortunately, I did not record this. I tried about 15 times to see if I could get this to happen again, but never did. However, I did get this message on there eventually:
https://soundcloud.com/tony-eephus/record-2017-09-09-at-01h24m23s-888 About 9 minutes of nothing but numbers being read. I transcribed them here: https://pastebin.com/H3WhACSp |

| New AS54 message:
"Please note, AS54 is currently being migrated to node 3 (B) at the customer request. Digital to analog is now integrated into node (cards) and should incur a significant signal to noise (ratio) increase. Additionally, the software port should now incur significantly less processor overhead. Thank you." () = Guessed word or unknown word. AS54 as of late has had more down time than up time. Additionally, PM must be pissed off because he continues to block all associated numbers with me. I finally gave up and created a Google Voice number for very far away and this number has been working lately. AS54 has been active for the last few days, however nothing new has been added since the last message above. I have had some health issues as of late and have been in and out of the hospital for multiple surgeries. I hope to be more active again in IRC very soon. |

| Just a reference update that nothing new has happened since then.
At some point the ability to push "3" on the main menu was added; it tells you how many messages there are (22). There is also the option to seek back and forth (4 and 6?) and change the volume (7 and 9 for up/down, 8 to reset?). |

| New message on AS54. Something about AS54 downtime, making backups, and Emtanon looking stupid. I haven't had a chance to transcribe it yet.
I still feel as though we are missing something obvious, but I haven't found it yet. Transcription: "Cute guys, real cute. The next time you set a new (generic) on the system, do us all a favor and BACK IT UP! The WORM people are freaking out. This is gonna go on our head. So I dunno just... Just an idea but maybe, just maybe... Try to not make us look stupid?" (generic) is a guessed word, but I feel pretty confident about what it says. |

| Heh. Someone asked directly how the WORM agents are contacting each other.
Bet that goes unanswered. Worth a try though, I guess. Also, whoever it was, you sounded professional! |
