 		Encom Nihon anyone??
may or may not be within the arg..
have search the forum with "encom nihon" keywords and found none.. and i'm too afraid if i put it on other topic, it might get marked as OOT.

so.... been poking around with jprs database to find more about encomgames.jp

here's what i got:

Domain Information:
[Domain Name] ENCOMGAMES.JP

[Registrant] Encom Japan

[Name Server] ns1.jp-domains.jp
[Name Server] ns2.jp-domains.jp

[Created on] 2010/02/12
[Expires on] 2011/02/28
[Status] Active
[Last Updated] 2010/02/12 11:02:33 (JST)

Contact Information:
[Name] Encom Nihon
[Email] dnsadminSPLATencom.jp
[Web Page]
[Postal code] 166-0002
[Postal Address] 3-43-13 Kouenji-kita Suginami-ku
[Phone] 03-3338-6900


anyone livin in japan or better yet, tokyo, to check those address or phone?
the postal code seems legit, around tokyo's roppongi hill or something..


nb: sorry if i make a mistake to create a new topic with this info..



*fun facts:
the listed address for ENCOM Nihon is at the same building with Tokyo Commodities Futures Exchange which are suspected for being fictitious regulators and securities/financial exchanges.

 		Nihon or Nippon is the Japanese name for the island of Japan.

So, Encom Nihon is just another way of saying Encom Japan.

Hope this helps.

 		i find it quite weird not because the usage of "nihon" instead of nippon.. but rather because of using encom nihon as the registrar itself...
weird coz other flynn lives viral website had their hosting/service provider as the registrar.
ie: the registrar for encominternational.com is GODADDY.COM INC.

and something else comes in mind... the japanese are as far as i know pretty uptight about hosting regulations and if they (42e) could put encom nihon as registrar for encomgames.jp, it may means there's somethin more than it seems with encom nihon.

 		Prehaps due to the restrictions 42e couldn't register the name via a 3rd party and had to create a "company" to get around them by haveing a physical "presence" in the country....
