Meh, I'm still interested in seeing where it's going. I sent an email.

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.

looking at the site Nighthawk just linked, beyond the blurry image of 'classes begin soon' it looks like an area with a wizard with wizard hat in it. it looks very 'Runescape'-ish in graphics, buts thats just speculation on my part. Ah, the good old days of Runescape, before WoW took over my life......

Well I'm still holding out hope that since they sent a letter to unFiction they actually intend it to be an ARG. Of course, they could just be looking to attract ARG players to their game, but I'm going to believe what will make me happiest. At least for a little while until someone proves me wrong.

Professor Merle Ambrose, looks like they took the name from:

Although his location is Hell..... not close to Disney then? Smile

I share your beliefs faeryqueen21. I think (holding on to the belief that) it's going to be an ARG with Multiple Players. (aren't they all) I didn't mean for this to get side tracked by posting that link. What we need to be doing is Seeking the Spiral.

Wow, thanks for reminding me VMK closes next week >_> (/me is a big supporter of the Save VMK resistance)

This seems fairly interesting. Watching this.

Maybe it's an ARG for a MMO? I wouldn't mind that, so long as it's an ARG rather than just an "experience".

LMFAO- I saw the "T" from Bass' scanner, cringed, and cried a little. I'll always remember his gentle "uh guys, that's from my scanner lid" until I eventually stop ARGing(hopefully, never Smile).

All I know is if this is Ethan Haas v. 2.0, I quit. Very Happy

Can someone try decamouflaging the 'seekthespiral' message?
If you just add "/Scratchy Text1.gif" to the end of the Ravenwood College website, you'll get the image. I'd do it now but I'm currently on a Mac....adnd it won't work....
