ARGN and Unfiction.com will be hosting a chat with Push, NV , consulting producer and "Push Puzzle Kingpin" Doug TenNapel on Sunday, December 1, 2002, at 5:00 p.m. PST (8:00 p.m. EST). Join us live as we grill Mr. TenNapel on all behind-the-scenes aspects of the Push campaign.

Later, he got into video games and created both the "Earthworm Jim" game and subsequent television show. His upcoming TV effort, entitled "Gear," is based on his graphic novel of the same name, published by Fireman Press. Mr. TenNapel has dozens of comic book, video game, animation, and television credits, and he also wrote, directed, and played a part in the 2000 movie Mothman .

The chat will be held in #unfiction on the Chat-Solutions network (irc.chat-solutions.org). Please try to arrive a little early. This will be a moderated chat. Chat and question guidelines will be posted shortly. Check back here or in our Rumors section for more details as they become available.

Push PM Chat Postponed

SpaceBass@forums.unfiction.com — Mon, 02 Dec 2002 08:20:48 +0000

Sadly, Doug TenNapel was unable to make tonight's chat. Although we don't have complete information yet, we strongly suspect it was due to some nefarious plot hatched by Watermark. As everyone knows, they're still out there protecting their secrets!

We had a great turnout for the chat and some great conversation in spite of things not going as planned. I'd like to personally thank everyone who came out and apologize for the unexpected problems.

We're working hard to reschedule the chat with Mr. TenNapel. Please check back here for more details as soon as we have them.

Push PM Chat and Question Guidelines

Aveena@forums.unfiction.com — Sun, 01 Dec 2002 23:46:42 +0000

The live chat is scheduled for Sunday, December 1, 2002, at 8:00 pm Eastern, 5:00 pm Pacific, 1:00 am (2 Dec) in London, and 10:00 am (2 Dec) in Eastern Australia.

The chat will be held in #unfiction on the Chat-Solutions network ( irc.chat-solutions.org ). The channel will go into moderated mode at about 10 minutes before the hour, meaning only moderators and PMs will be able to talk. If you do not have a chat client installed, you can connect using the ARGN java client located at http://www.argn.com/chat.htm .

The moderators will be our designated screeners. Currently, we expect them to be: Gupfee, Aveena, Vpisteve, Imbri, and Martavius. If you would like to ask a question, PM (private message) one of them only once, saying "Question." They will put you in a queue and when it's your turn, you'll be called upon and voiced so that you can speak in channel. Then, ask away! You'll be allowed one question and one follow-up per turn. Please use your best judgment regarding the questions you ask.

If you will be unable to make it to the live chat, you can post your questions to the announcement thread on the Unforum. Please post to this thread rather than starting multiple new threads just for questions. We'll do our best to get these questions asked as well, and we'll be posting the log of the chat as soon as possible after it is over.

We're looking forward to seeing everyone there!

P.S. If you're using mIRC, you can hide all of the join/part messages by clicking on the channel icon in the upper left corner of your #unfiction window. Then click events and choose "hide" on the various pull-down menus there.

It ain't over...

It ain't over... 'til the fat lady sings.

Martha was the fat lady in Push...
and I don't recall her singing! :lol:

Somewhere,
if only in the deep recesses of the mind...
the experiment goes on...
the hunt continues...
and the treasure twinkles...
like a diamond in the deep blue sky!

London England, Kensington Gardens

Dark Side Of The Moon@forums.unfiction.com — Tue, 05 Nov 2002 10:26:05 +0000

For what it's worth, I thought the clues led to the statue of Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens in London.

3 and 2. Orange - Kensington Palace has a statue of William of Orange who lived in Kensington Palace. Orange is also the name of the BBC television subsidiary as well as the British film prize and the prize for fiction. The orangery is also in Kensington Gardens.

4. Peter Pan -James Barrie lived behind Kensington Gardens which inspired him to write the book Peter Pan. The statue of Peter Pan is a boy standing on a pyramid of stones. The pyramid (built of stones) shining is shown on the Push Logo. The dog Nana is a big sheep dog which is based on Barrie's dog he walked through the park which is a dog shown on an episode walking through the street.

5 and 8. G5 is the section of the Push Map that shows Ellis Dry Lake. The statue of Peter Pan is right next to the Long Water.

6. Morse Code. Samuel Morse was a painter in London. The first trans-Atlantic cable was from Newfoundland to England. The first SOS distress call was from a boat in the English Channel. Morse Code was used to solve the Dr. Crippen murders. Also Inspector Morse is a popular British detective television show.

7. I don't think toyota18 was meant to be the clue here. Jim's Domain can only be Bank. Peter Pan is on the bank of the Long Water (all the water references in Push). Also the Bank of England, London.

9 and 2. Longitude is a British Television show which is a biography of John Harrison. Harrison developed the first working navigation system based on his precise time-keeping clock. (Interestingly the Longitude Prize itself was a race to win 20,000 pounds to be given to whoever could develop a perfect time system. Over discrepancies with the prize board, Harrison only won 8,750 pounds.) Clocks and precise time were a theme in Push. Harrison is buried in St. John's cemetery, London. The three (Davies?) children which Peter Pan is based on are also buried in that cemetery.

10. Underwear - Victoria's Secret. Queen Victoria was living in Kensington Palace when she was awoken and told she was the new Queen. The secret is that Peter Pan is in her garden.

11. Southeast - London is in the South east of England.

12. Silas Bodnick. (Marc Bodnick by the way is a developer from Silver Lake Productions who helped produce the show). Silas Marner is a book by George Eliot of a British man who hoards gold.

13. Eliot. I believe both TS Eliot and George Eliot (alias of Mary Anne Evans) are both meant here. TS Eliot of course because of his Prufrock poetry, as well as all the references to cats throughout the show and the character's name, etc. TS Eliot also lived in London. George Eliot, who lived in London, wrote Silas Marner as well as Middlemarch a book about a father/daughter relationship - money as the root of all evil - and the discussion of Christianity.

Also as far as other Push references:

Water - The Long Water is next to the Serpentine - serpent on the arm of Oswald.

Tea - Jim would only drink tea not coffee

Spelling - a few of the businesses had the traditional British spelling of Shoppe and Towne.

Time - a few times "British" as opposed to American time was used.

To me all roadsigns led to England, and once in England to Kensington Gardens, and once there, to the statue of Peter Pan.

I feel it's possible that after a successful series, the winner would have made the trip to England, and receive the prize. Now, ABC cancelled the series and came up with a much faster and cheaper prize.

Perhaps one could relate any 13 clues to a specific spot in the world. I would like to know if there is one correct answer, and not just a grand prize won by someone who could have put all the clues together by logging onto the internet this morning, and phoning the number tonight.

that's it?

knarfin@forums.unfiction.com — Sat, 02 Nov 2002 02:37:26 +0000

Now that there's a winner...what do the book and bible have to do with anything? Maybe there would have been more if the show hadn't been cancelled but...how would we have gotten the "eye" clue at the end if the wasn't the intentional ending. And what's the deal with enoch and the Push Nevada Expirement? They have nothing to do with the money and if they were meant to correlate to the rest of the show that was cancelled, why did they even release the book and have Enoch post his most recent "recent findings" about being on the run from Watermark? It's not like theres anything else we cand do now. It all just seems like the show really isn't over. Maybe they'll have another season. hmm...
