Ok, so maybe this is a stupid question or me being too literal, but didn't the article say 'around' the first of February? So... can't this start Thursday or even Saturday?? I'm just saying, it does seem as if it has started on some level; it seems as if Slowburn and Adam might be part of this...

(Not to pick on you Everything's Magic, there were plenty of people that reiterated that date, you were just the last person to say it.)

 		This might be something stupid, but I noticed on the CA website that one of the possible variables in the URL is "deus_news_id" I thought it was just a DC shoutout, then I entered this URL and saw the next update looks to be on or really close to Feb 1st.

Good find, Transtar! Yeah, it definitely looks like Friday is the big day...

Does this also mean that this first case is a sort of beta test?

Edit: FWIW, you are now able to edit your profile and your posts. Smile

Well, I've always been able to edit my post (at least since Sunday), but the profile editing is new.

 		I just joined the forums, just so I could discuss this ARG. I'm really looking forward to this one, because I haven't ever played a full ARG from beginning to end. I've already registered and posted on the CA website, as ProfessorZ42. Lets have some fun!

Oh dear, I just noticed that my contact e-mail address (ConAsyGameSPLATgmail.com) may make others think that I'm a character. I'm not. First of all, that's way too obvious. Second, I wanted an e-mail that I could use just for the game, and everything I tried to use was taken.

 		Thanks to the great folks at Despoiler, we have a wiki.

Feel free to help out with wiki maintenance and updates. A well-maintained wiki is a happy wiki.

Nice! It's always good to see a rather "central" system of organization with ARGs. Makes finding stuff a heck of a lot easier. At least, for me, heh.

That was a great find. Looks like they have redirected it back to the first file/page. When I clicked on it earlier today it said File 2: ?? and Friday's date, if I remember correctly. Can anyone still get to it?

 		Well its been a min. but this sounds interesting. Looks like I might have to jump back in the swing of things. I need to go download all my tools again. New computer, No Arg tools. That should be an option when you get a new computer.

 		*Praises our wiki.* Laughing

Wish I would have caught this thread earlier- I want to see what the deus_news_id=3 page looked like. *Pouts.*

Signed up there as (you guessed it) navygreen... This is my first ARG, since I always catch them in the middle and just follow along.

*Excited!!*

 		I'm excited about this--it'll be my first actual ARG. I'm going to get into the debate once I do some more reading and feel like I can contribute.

By the way, uh, I'm Liquid. lol. My name on the CA site is the same as my screenname here.
