I could do without ever seeing that again.
Looks like it comes up if you cut the end off one of the links, a little surprise for curious people.

Hi, hope you don't mind a n00b stumbling on in and spruiking his site, but I think if you're following the game you'll like this. I just launched a wiki to keep track of the JDATE ARG and all the clues as people pick them up, and I've been tapping away at my laptop on and off today trying to fill it up with some content. A few people have contributed a couple of sentences, and someone on Cracked.com (the author's website, which is where I got the link to here) provided the transcript for one of the old announcements that had since gone offline, but so far it's mostly been me editing this.
Any takers? Some of you seem to be pretty enthusiastic about JDATE... The address for the wiki is http://www.jdatewiki.com (the domain is new so it might not work yet everywhere, try this longer link in the meantime), and seriously, if you want to write about anything to do with JDATE, anything at all, not just the ARG, go right ahead. This thing could be awesome.

Come over to the thread I linked to earlier. That's where it's all happening, and it's getting crazy.

I've been following the thread as well as reading the book, but tonight as I hit refresh the thread suddenly was not available to me unless I registered. Which I did. But I don't see the thread anywhere in the JDaTE forum. Did the shadow people get to it or what? lol
Edit: and nevermind, it's back. or I'm retarded. carry on.

New Update. not much happening New update just went up. Same as the old updates but this time it's written by John. I'm guessing that it's gonna be like this for a while before we actually get to do something. Next update is on the 21st of December I believe. I didn't have time to check the photo's for hidden stuff but I don't think there will be. Laters,

Wow this sounds really good. Almost like this is going to become as big as Twilight or something but gorier and satan shitting into your head? Where can I read it? Does any site have like the first chapter or anything? I need to read this.
I work at Barnes and Noble so I'll let you guys know if it's gonna get big soon.
Edit: never mind i found a copy.
Edit 2: Oh my Fing GOd! what the hell is this? I am shaking in chapter 2. This is the most intense ......anything I have ever read. Wow. That's all I have to say. Wow. This is pure goddam genius.

Hey gang, just lurking, but he has a link up for a movie... Maybe I'll read the first 2 chapters, lol.
And he says on his site:
Quote:
…and arranged to do a massive worldwide re-issue of the book in 2009.
Hmm.. well the prologue was good, lol. I'll read more later. I'm not sure if this is going to be scary or funny. I hope funny....

I read the whole book and have been following the arg in the other thread on Cracked. I'm really kind of surprised more people here at UF aren't following along with this. Maybe they are and just aren't posting here in this thread. Anyway, I really enjoyed the book. Hope I can get the second one when it's out. But I am curious how they are going to make a movie out of some of that stuff! I've got to go check out that link.

So I'm reading the book, but I want to start on the ARG. My question is, if I go over to the other site, how much of the book will be ruined? Should I finish reading it first?? Oh and we should bring the peeps at the other site here!!

I don't think much of the book will be ruined at the beginning of the thread but there may be some things in the middle of the thread if I remember right. The thread is 30 something pages long now. The arg is more follow along with the story than it is solving puzzles and stuff.

found something that doesn't really matter I was surfing the web and came upon the picture that David said he got from a fan's brother. The one in the first post. Anyways, I totally didn't put it together until he posted the kids drawing of the picture. Took me a while to find it again but apparently Kevin Pereira (of AOTS fame) might know the guy in the pic. Or he just likes messing with people. He posted the pic on his blog here:

I have only seen this pic on JDatE and Kevin's blog so this stuck out. If this ARG spills over into AOTS then I think I might be able to die happy. But it's probably nothing.
