 		Just for kicks, I tried putting flavor 1 (Blueberry Zoom) at max, flavor 6 (Strawberry Tasty) at about 75%, and flavor 3 (Mikan) at about 50%. Tried several other combinations, too. But I got nothin'.

Don't apologize. It was your e-mail that proved to me it was user comments. The reference was too obvious to be IG. It had to be a user e-mail.


Wait: why are we believing this guy?

Some person who never posted in his life comes out of nowhere and claims to have sent an e-mail that is most likely IG.

I don't think it's a direct message to Soylent Green (a great movie). I think that they're implying Slusho is for the people, or it represents the people. They're saying this in standard Engrish. I find it hard to believe that they picked 10 user-generated comments and posted them at random.

Otherwise you'd get stuff like "OMG watch out rob!!! voltron is comming!!1!11!" and "Oh teh noes! Slusho is a mutagenic compound that turns humans into godzilla monsters! Bwarg!".

 		*cough* http://www.thedarkcitadel.com/slusho.html *cough*

I made that page back on the 14th Wink

Oh, and all the quote if nobody's been lazy enough to paste them:

Quote:

"I'm HAPPY, RIGHT NOW...Thanks to you!!!"
"I am so happy, but I wish I had some Slusho! Then I would be even more happy."
"Are you one of us?"
"Happy, am I happy? Of course I am. I love Slusho. I enjoy your product, and I feel Ganu's dream when I drink it. Thanks for turning me into a whale... keep up the good work."
"Slusho is people!!!"
"I have had six slusho. Can I have a Slusho T-Shirt, size xxxl? Much thank you!"
"I have to complement you on your beverage, which I sampled on a recent trip to Hokkaido! Very delicious! Please bring it to America soon!"
"I love Slusho!, it's the greatest thing I've ever tasted!!!"
"I've never had a drink better than Slusho! It's so yummy!!!!"
"Am I a whale????"
"Help! I had 7 ... is that bad?"
"Slusho, I am very happy! I really can't drink just six!!!!!! I want to thank you! Also I thank Noriko, because she created the best thing ever! I'm happy!"
"Slusho is the best drink ever! It makes my tastebuds ring! Keep up the good work!!!"


Judging from the directions in the file, it sounds like somebody took these from e-mails, so while somebody probably did send a slusho is people email, we can't know for sure.

Girl, actually. I've been around for a while. I played Urban Hunt back in the day and posted here. Can't remember my user name and password for the life of me, though. I saw the trailer online and thought I'd just play in the background, maybe get into another ARG (E, now?) I didn't mean to offend you, just wanted to let people know my email was OOG so they didn't base their theories around it. I actually wrote much better, nicely coded ones. Too bad they didn't use those!

 		But look: I can't think of a user that would send in these kinds of quotes:

Quote:
"I'm HAPPY, RIGHT NOW...Thanks to you!!!"
"I am so happy, but I wish I had some Slusho! Then I would be even more happy."
"Happy, am I happy? Of course I am. I love Slusho. I enjoy your product, and I feel Ganu's dream when I drink it. Thanks for turning me into a whale... keep up the good work."
"I have to complement you on your beverage, which I sampled on a recent trip to Hokkaido! Very delicious! Please bring it to America soon!"
"I love Slusho!, it's the greatest thing I've ever tasted!!!"
"I've never had a drink better than Slusho! It's so yummy!!!!"
"Slusho, I am very happy! I really can't drink just six!!!!!! I want to thank you! Also I thank Noriko, because she created the best thing ever! I'm happy!"
"Slusho is the best drink ever! It makes my tastebuds ring! Keep up the good work!!!"


Those seem pretty legit, especially some of the Engrish. I am under the assumption, however, that there are also some fan-submitted comments, such as the following:

Quote:
"Are you one of us?"
"Slusho is people!!!"
"I have had six slusho. Can I have a Slusho T-Shirt, size xxxl? Much thank you!"
"Am I a whale????"
"Help! I had 7 ... is that bad?"


I'm thinking they're mixed.

I know I'm being such a stubborn ass, and I apologize, but I just can't get it out of my head that some of these comments are too... happy to be user-generated. They seem like they were sent by actual drinkers of Slusho! who are relaying their joy to Noriko. Plus, why only pick 10? Why not post everyone's e-mail?

Oh, and I'm not offended, Iris; I'm just a little confused. It would be pretty helpful if you could give us your old username, so we could verify your claim. I don't mean to be snotty or disrespectful, but there are just too many gamejackers out there to be absolutely sure. I'm one of those people who wants complete proof before moving on. Embarassed

It is the secret ingredient except I think the picture is an Lotus.

Ok, I can see your point. I have to say that I feel rather odd proving myself to someone who's been doing this for far less time than myself. My old username was 'gatsby's american girl.' I think I cleverly coded my password as well--which is a dumb thing to do--and can't guess it now for the life of me, or the email it was linked to. Now that this topic is throughly derailed...let's talk about Slusho! It's yummy! It makes you happy!!!

 		slusho store page
Hey guys, uhh I dont think anyone has noticed this yet until me... ez.

Im pretty sure on the slusho site on the store page the hands in the back are saying something in SIGN LANGUAGE.

I dont know how to sign, so if anyone could either prove me right, or wrong it would be appreciated.

 		^^IrisS was me. And my old password was far to easy to figure out.

The sign language thing has been brought up before. I took three years of ASL classes and the hand gestures don't mean anything to me.

 		The quote's really just seem like people's emails who tried to play along. I know I myself sent in something about being happy for slusho, to try and elicit a real response.

You know, the man might have a point!

Also, on the "Flavors" page, the robots are thrown in to the cup depending on the order you choose them, from highest to lowest. If there is more to this page, then based on that I don't think it matters the exact values on the slider, but the order they go in.

Considering that, by my calculations, there are over 5000 possible combinations, either (1) someone *really* has nothing better to do, or (2) there are clues to the combination.
