Points for bringing Lovecraft in here XD

Eh, it seems kind of odd to me that the website is so... well... crappy if the guys running it are tech dudes.

Yeah the website is pretty basic, but come on guys. It's not terrible. Sometimes all you need is something very basic. Design wise, I think they did a great job with what basic html they used.

For the life of me I cannot figure out what spiral we have to find.

Welcome!

I kmow the next ( dare I say it?) Harry P movie isn't due till November, but this has the feeling of it......

.......PLEASE don't let that put anyone off, it looks promising whatever it's about!


MAJOR HP SPOILER
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Ravenwood College never appears in any HP book... So unless it's a spinoff thing for the movie, I doubt it's HP related.


Sent off my email - And Sylvia VERY interesting! - Looks to me like it could be some kind of new HP related RPG as opposed to an ARG though.

After looking at the disboards site I now know why we are limited in what we can put in our signature bars. Man that was hard on the eyes.

I'm not playing, but just want to jump in and state the obvious; there's no way in HELL that the scenery around the school is Texas. Looks like Washington, for some reason.

That "T" shape is most likely from SpaceBass' scanner. (Those that followed Tom Tooman probably remember it fondly with a cringe. Wink Right, tygr20? )

Whois on Ravenwoodcollege.com and Ravenwoodcollegeofmagic.com (the latter redirects to the former) are via
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Network Solutions, LLC.
both created on 01-May-2008
Registrant: Coleman, J Todd
If it's the same guy....
his linkedin states "Our company is currently hiring seasoned game developers for two new Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO) projects."
His company is http://www.kingsisle.com/

Given the message board that Sylvia found, I'm guessing this will be more of a MMO than an ARG.
