Why did you make Oct. 1 so @*&)%$£ complex?

How did the project get started?
As the ARG unfolded, did you have to keep in close contact with one another? With various forums? With IRC? (Any cool anecdotes?)
What was up with The Aquapolis/SafeSys?
What really *WAS* the pattern to the paranormal events?
LifeAndCausality.com?
If Avery was garbage-collected, what's up with the Dimitri photos? Was that the "new" Avery?
What music did Scratch use?
Edit: How much did you deviate from your original plans/scripts/whatever for the sake of interactivity? For example: Trip's CD pickup, Beth's log referring to the unexpected snow/slush in the Portland area, etc.
Edit 2: How much money went into this? We can kind of calculate the prices of the stock photos, hosting, and voicemail--but what about the other things: the outbound calls, Wongmo's phone line, or whatever else?
Edit 3: What were Kat's dealings with Agent Jones? Was she supposed to be a not-so-likable "good guy" or a "bad guy?"
Edit 4: Will we get a chance to peek at your story/plot/character notes? Were they as messy and convoluted as this: http://metacortex.netninja.com/my_notes/thoughtmap.png ?

Whats going down? Will you explain everything in full? What the hell actually happened? How does everything connect? will you be doing another ARG? Perhaps suggest the idea to the WB?

Suggestion You should compile everything into a book. I would buy as I am sure everyone who participated would.

If xnbomb and Moriar had come up with good arguments for some other place, would we be hearing from Beth about that place instead?

How did you develop the idea of taking ARG's to the next level, into the realm of reality? The CD's, the Halloween telephone call, etc.

questions for PM Chat I'm posting these here in case I miss the chat...
1) Was there any meaning to Random's "quotes" and what tool was used to generate them?
2) Where did you film the Aquapolis cams (esp the drowned guy)
3) Where were the screwed-up subway LED signs filmed?
all I have for now
Kudos to all!

Well correct me if I'm wrong, but I think stuff like that happens often in ARGs.

Perhaps, but I'd still like to know how they decided which cities to put the CDs in, and where, and which game-players to phone, etc. (and was that guy at the Cyberia Internet cafe that trip visited in on the whole thing?) The developmental process behind this must of been massive...

Questions... questions... I guess I have only one question.
So, now that Beth has some free time, do you think I can get her number? I haven't been to Washington in a while and I'd love to spend some time up there.
