It got moved to the General Archive, here:

http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/index.php?f=184&sid=bef2dbcb2f0a16f5a38857bc359c8c09

However, if the game is still active, we should probably move it back. Let us know if more happens.

I'll make sure someone here knows if/when it comes back from its hiatus so the forums can return if it's deemed necessary.

Well I hardly believe it's concluded because I went to the site only yesterday and saw a new puzzle!

oh there haven't been any new puzzles for quite some time. the latest update was on the front page of oculareffect.com, where EWO posted the OE trailer. Otherwise, there hasn't been anything since the 2nd countdown found.
Most believe it hasn't ended, but this break is quite frustrating to many people.

I went there yesterday and saw a word search-ish puzzle I had never seen before. Somebody needs to put it back as it's NOT dead.

I think it's very very rude to directly say it's concluded even when we don't know it is. If anything say it's abandoned, but don't directly say it's concluded..... Confused

I don't think anyone was trying to be rude. People were just trying to keep the forums running smoothly.

No one said it was, and we have direct confirmation now that it's not. Can you describe the puzzle you saw? Within a couple of the rune puzzles there are wordsearch-ish puzzles with clickable symbols, that when the right symbols are clicked correctly, solves the puzzle. I assume you knew that already, so just to help clarify, what was it that you saw? They may very well have jumped the gun on an upcoming update, and retracted it before anyone (they'd hope) would see it...

again, I don't think anyone did. At least, I didn't. If I came across that way, I apologize. It's quite obviously (now, at least, officially) not concluded, though we are still awaiting an update, as we have been since the new countdown appeared nearly a month ago.

I've moved Ocular Effect out of the Archives and back up to the Games, Rumors & Diversions section and tagged it as "Now Playing" - hopefully we won't be "staying tuned" for long Smile
