I think the idea of a fake Anti-Videogame site is quite ingenius.
If a major media outlet decides to do a piece on it and others follow suit, imagine the embarrassment when the site owner jumps out and yells "Surprise! I fooled you!".
What is the likelihood at that point that a legit organization with the same views will emerge? Highly unlikely because their credibility will immediately be questioned and those who truely believed in MAVAV, like the media outlets and those who sent in stories, will not want to be embarrassed a second time.

600? That's it? When I was serving MP3s in IRC a few years back, there were some users serving over 10000 songs a piece.
Here's hoping they stay away from IRC... at least for a little while :P.
Also, here's a link to the full text of the Judge's ruling. Feel free to Slashdot the RIAA site :D.
