well i gotta say, he's really convincing. if i had to give a percent chance (after reading all you guys's conversations) i'd say 85% that it is one of TBC, and 100% that it is a person with unusual knowledge of the inner workings of the H*R world. i'm normally a skeptic about this kinda thing, because i myself am guilty of posing as other people... and pulling it off.
it requires a lot of preparation to pull of a fake identity. i generally look up all i can about who i am gonna impersonate, then make a big list of important, little known facts about them and set it by the compy. then you gotta get into character, just like an actor. i love acting and stuff, so thats prolly why i do the fake identity thing a lot.
anyway, my point is, the amount of facts and stuff that this person obviously knows is an awful awful lot to have been written down on a notepad. there are only 2 options therefore: the person is a CREEPY wiki-goer who is way too obsessed with H*R than is healthy... OR... it is someone from the "inner circle" of the Chapman team.
another factor i'm taking into consideration is: if they wanted to contact fans, this would be the smartest way to do it. register an AIM thing that only the people who were curious enough to type in the screen name from the toon would be able to find, and NOT release your identity no matter what. this totally seems like something they would do, and i would like to think that perhaps there was an alterior REASON that they had that AIM style thing in their last toon.
it has been established that TBC are somehow associated with AIM:
*they made buddy icons
*they use the sound effects for AIM sometimes in toons
this is a very weak argument though... but all the same, adds to the evidence, even if it is just a little bit.
the most important thing to consider is RESPONSE TIME:
anyone could sit and search the wiki for all the info needed to say that stuff. if it takes a long time to respond... well its hard to prove again, because if he has like 40 ppl talking to him it would take a while.
hey, has he been on this weekend at all? thats another thing, if it was TBC, they do a lot of their animation for monday over the weekend and probly wouldn't have time to AIM if it is really one of them.
