Congrats! Leave your congrats for the PM's here.

I think they did a WONERFUL job. This was my first grassroots game and I love it. Thank you so much for the experience.

i thought it was a great game, i had a lot of fun playing..but i'm not quite convinced it's totaly over yet. if it is great job with the launch and all the plot twists "the ending" could have been a little better IMO, something to get you really involved in the rescue and pull you in at the final moments, just something more than good job shes safe i'm leaving now bye.

And if this is really over, PM'S does the trail on scaryclowns site go any farther than vane.html? that's driveing me nuts.

Congrats Smile

Yeah, nicely done guys. You had me hook, line, and sinker when I filled out the PM Jam Interview questionnaire.

Kudos to everyone. Once again I enjoyed every minute and am still twisting my mind around the whole arg within an arg thingy. So thanks for the ride.

I was sort of like a Neal Stephenson novel very good at the start and middle but weak a ending. It was fun.

Man.... I'd been telling everyone how much this felt like UH... And there was that dream i had, about Addle being the pm.... And then I'm too busy getting my pic with her today in my "I helped kill ed vargas" shirt and i miss the end credits because i'm in the hallway. LOL, it figures. Anyway, you people HAVE to keep making games for me, er, i mean us... yeah... us.

Love, admiration... When's the pm chat????

Congrats indeed. The team here managed to create what was, for the community, undeniably the most brilliant trailhead I've ever seen. A three month pre-game that no-one even knew was anything to do with it until it launched into a beautiful, short, snappy game.

The only thing I would say, as a slight constructive criticism, is that there seemed to be a slight lack of player interaction with the story: now that it's over, I do have the slight feeling that no matter what part I played in this game, the story would have played out the same regardless.

Still, it's a minor criticism. Excellent stuff.

This has been the first ARG that I have been able to follow from beginning to finish, and the experience has been a pleasurable one (even if spent mostly lurking), so bravo to the PMs! Short but sweet, and I especially enjoyed the tongue-in-cheek incorporation of META-stuff into the game itself. The rabbit hole was excellent, the story amusing and brilliantly twisting , the ending slightly unexpected (not to say rushed, presumably to coincide with ARGfest? I'm not sure, though, if this is a minor point of criticism or not).

The biggest plus has to be the characterisation: entirely realistic and believable, and well-rounded enough (with the possible exception of A Fan himself, but I guess that was intentional) to merit a game that went on for much longer than it has (but that wisely did not). This probably accounts for my present feeling that this is not really over yet...

Please have a PM chat (and PLEASE, not in the middle of the night!).

Hey all!

I enjoyed this one very much. I was fortunate to be the solver of two main puzzles in it, which was really a first for me.

Kudos and congrats to the PM team!
