I'll ask what BTB stands for, and I'm assuming he'll send the answer to you, Derkrork, or Grongongon.

 		Crap, forgot to post a reply from a bit ago. Asked about the symbol seen in the vid before the logo and the glyphs that are typed near the beginning.

So, both have significance. Now to figure out what the code says...

I'll ask what BTB stands for, and I'm assuming he'll send the answer to you, Derkrork, or Grongongon. He'll refer to me as "tds449." I'll also send the image to him.


I'm already editing this in as we speak!

ETA: I'm not adding anything about BTB yet since we still don't know what the hell it means/represents.

 		Hello. I am new here, and I just started this Commander Video thing. I am very excited, as this is the first ARG I have been able to participate in. Will the Commander be accepting any recruits after the ten that have joined? I hope so; I have sent him an email. Anyway, I am going to go back to searching. If I find anything of importance, I will report back.
EDIT:

Message recieved from the commander: (I requested to be called GenisSage.)

I guess he is saying that there are already ten recruits, and that I am not one, hence "RecruitError1", and that the process of recruiting is complete, "ProcessComplete1". My task? Refer to you, the current recruits. "Refertocurrentrecruits1."

So... here I am. I guess I'll just assist with anything that needs assistance, or just "Tell all my friends" about the game.

EDIT: A message was recieved from the commander regarding any future recruits. Disheartening:

 		I have asked him if I can have any meaningful participation, although I missed being a recruit. He hasn't replied yet.

EDIT: I think he's gone to bed. He's only a man, after all. I'm gonna follow his good example.

 		Hey guys. The Commander hasn't written me back, but got some info from Alex Neuse (the CEO of Gaijin Games):

Quote:
Yeah, CommanderVideo is correct, we're not making a Nether Earth remake/sequel or anything related. But the game we are making has a 3-word title that can be shortened to BTB. I'd love to tell you what it's called, but since our publisher hasn't done the press-release yet, I'm going to hold off on that until probably sometime within the next week or two when I expect a LOT more to be revealed. I will let you know this though: It's a game that draws its inspiration from the aesthetics of classic games from the 80s.


Quote:
In regards to the origin topic, I guess he wants you to ask me about that, but also recognizes that he's from "the ether". I do know more about this, but again, am not ready to divulge this information. The reason is because that's sort of what the game is about--CV's origin. Once the game is available on WiiWare (we're really trying to hit a February release), you can play it to get this answer. Sorry I can't help more on that.


Figured you guys would want to see that. Sounds pretty awesome.

Pretty cool, but let's just lay off of Alex, okay? The Commander needs us! Very Happy

I know. It's just an email conversation that's been going on this whole time that I figured you guys would want to see. I saw that you guys were going to inquire about BTB, but if that's not possible yet (as seen in Alex's reply) then I think you should maybe pick another question or something.

Not trying to tell you how to live your life (although mittens saves lives), just making a suggestion. Smile
