 Everything so far...

In the town of Burning Forest, there are two extremely high tech
companies competing: The very unprofessional Wildfire Industries and
the very professional Rainman Group. But no loveable and wacky talking dogs.

The ARG is going to be played AWARE style with the good guys and the
bad guys duking it out against each other. It is run by Colin
Brennan, the mastermind behind Project: Gateway (which I loved) and a
few other people. The project was given $2000 by Real World Gaming
(quite a bit above P:G's $52.) Chat at #WildfireIndustries .

Wildfire Industries - Very Unprofessional. Good guys. Website down for unknown reason. Running an ARG to get beta testers for closed beta testing of the e-business program, "BlazeNet".

How to join - Complete their ARG.
Level 1: Email registrationSPLATthisiswi.net .
Level 2: Then AIM Laura Clockheart at LClockheart (or Seraphina Wildfire at SWildfire56. Maybe you could meet them in #WildfireIndustries if you're lucky).
Level 3: Will begin when Firenze's upgrades are complete. You will find in email. Takes form of more puzzles.
Level 4: More puzzles.
Level 5: Personal interview with Mr. Delton Wildfire, his brother Mr. Deltion Wildfire, and Miss Deltina Wildfire.

Delton Wildfire - Ex-Professional Skateboarder. Founder and CEO of
Wildfire Industries. Uses Buisness E-mail for porn. Not gay.

Seraphina Wildfire - Shareholder Liason for Wildfire Industries. Fiancee of Delton. Babysits Deltiona. AIM nickname is SWildfire56. Maiden name is Angela. Nickname is Sera. Personal E-mail is SAngelaSPLAThotmail.com and SeraAngela00056SPLATcomcast.net . Website is http://home.comcast.net/~seraangela00056/. IRC nickname is Seraphina_Wildfire . Perhaps registered at Immersion Unlimited as Seraph

Deltion Wildfire - Pronounced Del-SHUN. Delton's brother. Trained in Martial Arts.

Deltina Wildfire - Delton's older sister. Mother of Deltiona, although unmarried. Public Relations at Wildfire Industries Wears a sportcoat and a bra to work. Registered at Immersion Unlimited as DeltinaWildfire with http://starprotectorate.myforums.net list as website.

Deltiona - 7 and a half. Can't talk or write. Only method of communication is cryptic drawings. Seems to think Seraphina is angel. Website is http://home.comcast.net/~anoitled/. Email should be anoitledSPLATcomcast.net . Registered at Immersion Unlimited as anoitled.

Laura Clockheart - Delton's secretary. Interviewing people after they contact Firenze. AIM username is LClockheart.

Firenze - Extremely complex and realistic AI with personality. Email Address is firenzeSPLATwildfireindustries.com . Currently down because he is being upgraded for compatiblity with BlazeNet. Once his upgrades are complete, you'll be able to call him via cell phone, chat with him over AIM, send him commands in our chat room, and much more.

Nash Carey - Colin's Boss.

Colin Brennan - Website designer for Wildfire Industries. It was his idea to run an ARG to get beta testers for closed beta testing of the e-business program, "BlazeNet".

Blazenet - E-business program we are testing. Will allow for us to be able to call him via cell phone, chat with him over AIM, send him commands in our chat room, and much more.

Rainman Group - Very Professional. Bad guys. Website down due to death of programmer.

How to join - Unknown. You should most likely try emailing Felicia Viper at fviperSPLATcomcast.net . You can also ask them about it by IMing Miss Viper at FeliciaViper or Mr. Sidewinder at sidewinderrg . Maybe you could meet them in #WildfireIndustries if you're lucky. They are going to try getting applicants with flyers next, so if you want to join them, just wait a bit more.

Mr. Rainman - CEO of Rainman Group. He seems to be the Dr. Claw type and has everyone else do the work. But thats just my character assessment.

Felicia Viper - Email is fviperSPLATcomcast.net . Website should be http://home.comcast.net/~fviper/. AIM username FeliciaViper . Registered at Immersion Unlimited as F_Viper and Felicia_Viper. IRC nickname is F_Viper (I think). Action-type assistant to Mr. Rainman

Wow. That's quite impressive!

There are some things to add.

Ms. Clockheart's first name is Laura.

The Rainman Group's head is, indeed, Mr. Rainman; he appeared in the chat with the Rainman team.

Felicity Viper's e-mail was fviperSPLATcomcast.net -- we were to send to her following the meeting in late November. However, no acknowledgements were forthcoming, nor any follow-ups to my knowledge.

Mr. Sidewinder's first name is Bart; he's the right-hand man of Mr. Rainman. Ms. Viper is nominally Sidewinder's assistant, though her implications are that she does more, possibly involving certain unethical practices.

We did talk to Sindwinder a bit about the password, he said we should know what it is, and that the file will help us come up with the answer he is looking for.

Seraphina:
Seraphina is currently staying home from work with the flu or some other illness.
She always wears a ribbon which contains a pearl which contains a microtransmitter that acts like a cell phone.
NyQuil has a very strong effect on her.
Her parents were killed in a car crash when she was a child - She was the only survivor.

Level Three:
mrkbkmdobscdsm, nscdsxmd, ohmvecsfo, csxqevkb, zobcyxkvsjon, czomskv, exsaeo. Nopsxsdsyx - nscdsxmdsfo.
It's all anoitled to me!
ROT-16 for:
characteristic, distinct, exclusive, singular, personalized, special, unique. Definition - distinctive.
Answer is 'individual' which is used on http://home.comcast.net/~anoitled to get to http://home.comcast.net/~anoitled/individual.htm
SkaterAl solved this one. It says:
San Diego, CA Pittsburgh, PA Pott
Edit: Idran1701 got all of it. It says:
San Diego, CA Pittsburgh, PA Pottsville, PA Dallas, TX Toronto, Ontario

Firenze:
Firenze is now back online.
He is the "datakeeper" for Wildfire Industries.
He makes excellent virtual chocolate chip cookies. =P
He doesn't like Rainman Group's AI, Callista.
He can now store messages to be given to others, give orders for you when you are not available, facilitate a phone to internet connection, and deliver information from you into the chat room.

Wildfire Industries:
There is a horse, Pyro, on the 23rd floor.
There is a labyrinth on the 17th floor.
There is a golf course on floors 30-40.
There is a 5 stroke penalty for hitting a desk.
There is a 10 stroke penalty for breaking a window.
There are no drivers, just medium ranged clubs and putting.
One time, an employee hit a golf ball out the window. It boomeranged back, and he hit it again. It made a fairly large hole, or "extreme divot" in Deltion's car. The employee was later fired due to "anger problems".
Empty fields surround WI Tower.
Cameras aren't allowed in WI Tower, because Delton is fed up with all the paparazzi stunts during his skateboarding career.
There are a map and directory engraved into the wall on the first floor.
There is a straight drop from the 73rd floor to parking level (with a cusion halfway and padded walls) called The Black Hole to Somewhere.
Delton is the one who designed this Black Hole, was the one that put up the sign that says "One person at a time", and is the one who constantly jumps down with Deltion. At least he wears his helmet.
Mr. Bates, "an odd duck", never touches computers. He "thinks they are the devil".
Delton owns a red suit.
Miss Clockheart wears a silver heart around her neck with a clock inside. A clock-heart.


Um... I think that's everything else... XD

This now needs updating. Could someone who was here through it all please update it?

/me curses his shocking luck being sick when one of the biggest twists in ARG history went down.
