 		well I'm sorry to hear its over so soon, I can't believe this loser who screwed up the project, I hope he reads these so he realizes that he not only selfishly destroyed a really good project but also really pissed off a lot of us players who never did anything to him.

One question, you said it came to be called "Lenny's Xanga", was there another intended name or anything?

Thank you for trying your hardest to salvage this and I hope in the future I can play one of your ARG's.

By the way...I guess now that the cat's out of the bag, you can confirm if that Synagogia/AIM thing was related to your project. It was quite the element of controversy for a while there, and one less controversy is always a good thing in my book.

Again, sorry things turned out the way they did. Don't give up on us though!

To Alzheimers: That is a difficult question...initially, we thought it was our favorite person to hate screwing with the game again, but it turned out to be an enormously huge misunderstanding. Due to certain terms made, none of us can really answer that question properly. All we can say is that it had nothing to do with our game.

To jordanmc: The behind the curtain title was 'I Still Love Bees'. We even toyed with doing a parody site or having Jan's A.I. crash into a fan memorial site...but we ultimately decided that wasn't the best way to go.

 		PM - Tim:

I saw part of an IM transcript regarding someone losing family members in the tsunami. Is this true?

 		To be honest, I don't know where you saw that, nor would I type such a horrid thing, even in character. I never said that. Where do you see it?

We had a foreign exchange student living here with us in the states, and yes, he did...

 		Erm
I have a question. Why was he called Lenny James if J^2's real name wasn't James?

I wanted to keep some sort of familiarity for beekeepers to pick up on. Also, while it is fact that J^2 wasn't a real name, it never really played into the story...it was never anything more than just an interesting side fact that I felt most players could have missed.

Also keep in mind the story was still in early drafting when everything went to hell.

The actress or the in-game character? The in-game character was Jan (read 1st post topic about the story), and the actress was a very talented little lady name Jamie Morrison, a close friend of mine.

 		Due to popular requests for exposure, I'm left with no choice but to chew out my very own brother. I have every intention of making him read this thread, and making sure he learns his lesson.

The intention behind his actions were simple: being the child he can be from time to time, he wanted to take the game as his own, so he went to a lot of trouble to do so...from masquerading as me, to pretending to be one of you right under your noses...I love my brother still (I mean, this is only a game), and I will give him a chance to come clean in his own words right in this thread when he gets home from school today. All I ask is please try and be nice to him...he's only 15.

We're out to lunch...will be back to fielding questions in about 30 (time is currently 12:07, EST)
