Agent Lowe made a new blogpost

Good news. I have found Jodie and his job has been terminated. I have stopped her little 'operation' short. She will not be leaking any more information to anyone. my co workers have had her account hacked and changed his password. it is done.

This will also be my last blog post.

Agent Lowe

P.S: I was right. Jodie wasn;t her real name. but it would be pointless to give it out


so... maybe nothing will happen on Saturday?



so is HE/SHE a HER or a HIM? O_o
im confused as well

It's a HER.

Goodbye
I have lost my job, and my dignity. I tried to reveal to you what this organization was hiding- sorry. keeping from the press until further notice, but I have been caught. I am sorry, I will no longer be updating this blog, and have been forced to close my youtube account. Thank you all for your support.

I'm thinking something went awry oog so... maybe it had to be cut short? :S

also re: the his/her thing: maybe Agent Lowe was trying to keep it a secret still. but then 'Jodie' (Natalie) screwed it up by making a last blog post revealing her name....

I don't think so. I don't think anyone has opened the door or found the key, as it still says in Agent Lowe's source code.

This is just things changing up.

hello. I am just here to say; thank you for playing, but I am regretfully informing you all that I must bring this to an unprepared for early end. The reason being; I was doing this all by myself and the footage well... The footage was going to be shot today. which was my mistake. Starting an ARG before the footage was shot. and one of my main actors dropped out so I had to end it all. I am sorry for the inconvenience and I have learned from my mistake. I can assure you that I am more disappointed than the rest of you.

well, if you ask me, it was a good first-run. albeit stopped short, but it was good while it lasted. especially for one person running it! what do you guys think?

We all go through it at some point or another. Sometimes things happen that are beyond your control. It's happened too all of us, so no worries.

It's good to hear that you have learned a lesson in all of this. Sometimes it takes months, even years, to plan an "ARG". There are exceptions, of course, but don't be too hard on yourself for what happened.

As long as you understand what mistakes you made and understand how to correct them (or even try to plan for them) the next time, you should be okay.

There's a lot to know that will only come from experience, so don't be surprised if you learn a something else the next time. Just try not to stress out about it and go through every possible outcome in your head to try and avert them.

Here is something that you will probably do the next time and something that you should plan for. You'll probably get a team of people together to work on another project. Here is something that most people will not tell you that you have already had some experience in... not everyone sticks around for the whole thing. People drop out for one reason or another and it can happen at any time. So be prepared for that when you start your next project.

Good luck.

I sat on this for a couple of days to collect my thoughts as I didn't want to come across the wrong way, twice. I know why it came across as being a dick. I was being tongue in cheek sarcastic, and the disappointment of this Arg tanking made it look dickishy. That really isn't how I meant it to be taken, I was having a blast with this and do look forward to the PM's next attempt.
