GKNOVA6



GKNOVA6 is a website, which is advertising Call of Duty: Black Ops. There are 5 vertical lights and as of 13th April 2010 there are only two which are active. During the website sounds can be heard saying "Nova Six" and "1969". In Morse code the letters "CoD7" can be heard.

The site includes multiple references to the Cold War, including photographs of John F. Kennedy delivering a speech about the Cuban Missile Crisis. Also a code was found, it said:

M O D 1 9 6 9 – D U G B T R L R F M * G W O X A W D N S N O C * Y X M M *

Matt_Teddy on Twitter cracked the code, which reads “CLASSIFIED ANNOUNCEMENT SOLD”. It was later found out that it was actually "Classified Announcement SOMD".

Later on during the early weeks of April 2010, many game related places got sent packages containing USB sticks. This lead to a website SOMD.com, (A website for Southern Maryland, which is where the packages were sent from.) the website is used for local news, event planning and so on. The announcement was within this site. Another code was then found on that site:

The above code was deciphered and it was found that it said:
