 		[MAIN PAGE 04-10-05] Message from Gamem8ker (Truth)
Right on the front page:

Quote:


today's a good day. Our Colony advances to the next level: Truth.

how'd we get here? easy. you survived through Chaos the way i hoped you would. you read the rules and complied. where no rules existed, you made 'em up. you made the site your own, and together endured the rigors of Chaos. chaos in the forums strengthened your bonds. chaos on the leader board steeled your resolve. chaos with penguins and exercise gurus galvanized your desire to learn more. Our Colony is stronger now than ever.

and so we begin Truth. you thought it was tough before? just like in the real world, pretenders will be owned by real Colonies. real Colonies work to make us stronger, and work together to make us smarter.

me? i'm the gamem8ker. i've given you the gift of time already, and i'm still here to give you what you need to know. two pieces so far, and a third on the way. you won't always know whose games you're playing, but when you're playing my games, you'll most definitely want to succeed.

as always, play if you want to learn, learn if you want to win.


Also, a quote on the team colony page is:

Hmm..

EDIT - topic - SG

 		so does the remaining link to human clock mean it still has more relevance?

 		So this means that the security holes were there on purpose?
Or is this just an excuse for them that they try to make in-game?

In any case, I like where this is going. A third piece of the Xbox2 controller is coming, I think.

it would be nice to think it was on purpose, but the general weakness of the site suggests otherwise.

it would be nice if the Chaos phase was planned, also, but again, not really that chaotic. just lame.

i complain, but i'm hanging in there. i always reserve the right to be way off. ILB was so cool. so i'm hoping MS has something cool planned for this.

my biggest fear is they want to benefit from the attention and energy a real ARG can create, while not really rewarding us for our efforts. player created puzzles and photos of their product don't cut it for the amount of time we invest just trying to discover what exactly is going on.

this is already high profile enough to put a cloud over well funded ARGs for a long time if it doesn't ever really turn into anything.

 		and now that they deleted the forums, what do you even do there? just check to see if there's a new puzzle and look at a meaningless leader board?

the two other "goals" to complete in general is to:

1. Get more people to join.
2. Place pictures of the ant somewhere.
