[Meta] Thoughts and Views

I thought I'd make a meta thread for various thoughts and views on the game, how it could be imporved, what you think is going on behind the curtain, and updates (renewals etc) to the websites.

Basically this thread is for non-puzzle related brain farts.


I was just looking through N Jones's website again, and something has been bugging me about what the writing style reminds me of with all the striked out words.

Then I remembered, its a book I have, very creepy, called House Of Leaves. Certain words in that book would be striked out, some would be in lighter font, some would be in another colour. Really weird stuff.

I always wondered why it was like that. I thought that's why we all liked BG. It's weird. It makes my head spin. I just thought the words striked out were some kind of art thing.

He added to his myspace again in case anyone hasn't noticed. He added: Time again to be a culture sponge. And make some scratch.

Where did everyone go?

I also have been checking the BG site for renewal. It was getting close to expiring. I know a couple of us have been thinking it was getting ready to end. It's been updated until 2008. It must be true. We must be just getting started. Laughing

Ciss,

You asked. I'm just being honest. My thought is bring back Rhino. Smile
Not that I don't like Jones. I just miss Rhino and the crazy stuff he does and says.

People don't start on me today about it.

One of you still needs to get some help. You know what I mean whoever you are.

Ciss,

That post on here wasn't proof enough for me. There is someone that seems to think they are Rhino. But that person can't call me. They need help. Weirdos. Laughing

I wish all the BG myspace people would all come on at once and really make our heads spin. I wish netthreats would go to the red alert status. I like all his crazy stuff he does. I want Eddie to post more on the BG site. I thought it was funny that he added the word he's been jackin. I like Jones. He just makes me nervous. I feel really stupid compared to him. Look at that bio. I don't know what to ask him. I'm scared to ask him anything. Since he tells people to piss off. Laughing I'm sorry but that's funny that he told someone that. I was told once by someone that plays these games not to play the charcters like a game. Treat them like people. So maybe you should try that. If that makes sense. I forgot who he told to piss off. Rhino is smart but he was also crazy. So I wasn't as nervous with him. I like it when the pm has us really confused. Which I always am. Not that I don't like what the pm is doing at the moment. I love BG. I'm still here and I feel my head was really messed with a few weeks ago. So I must like it. These are just my wishes for BG. I want more crazy stuff. The crazier the better. I just miss Rhino. I want him back on BG. I still believe he's IG.

Ciss,

There you go my thoughts for today.

Jazz,

You told me last night you'd be back on today. Now where are you?

Edit: I keep adding to what I want.

I'd quite like some OOG blog made by the PM. Just for some behind the curtain stuff.
Eldrich Errors has something similar, and of course they have the advantage of having a podcast with ARGn too, to clarify what the game is for, how long it would run etc - but without giving anything away.
tlemporary has the same thing, I think its a really useful thing to have, especially for a long running game such as BG.

Ciss,

Oh please post that. My laugh for the day. Laughing The words you come up with. I want some serious mindF*****g too! Laughing I didn't know how to put that word . Will I get grounded for using bad language on forum?

Since we are just getting it all out what we want. Here goes mine again.

The salon was mentioned in the video. We've all seen that website on the forum. Is it IG or OOG? What's reality and what's not has me confused.

Just some food for thought.

The name Richard Ramsdell is mentioned on the N Jones website. Richard G Ramsdell is a actuall real person, who works in Sarasota, hes also mentioned and refered to alot on other artists and critics blogs.

I have the feeling this could be a art project, or a way to promote his own works through N Jones.

But what I do find strange is why would a PM use his real name in a game? When a search can bring up all the personal info, work, resume etc? Isnt this somewhat dangerous?

Maybe the PM just used his name and his artwork. But, I dont know.

Pop57 is also registered to Richard G Ramsdell.

I just went looking through the threads, and found his IP / whois again, and did a little research.
