 		[48HIP] 48 Hours in Purgatory - The Relaunch
For those of you that are familiar with the history of 48 Hours in Purgatory, you know that it has gone through some substantial changes as of late. The movie was recast, major plot points were altered, and a whole lot of weird things happened, in the end making the movie better for a public release.

The ARE has now relaunched with a new forum:

http://www.48-hours.net/vitaobscura/

This is a whole new forum, so everyone will have to re-register.


And of course, the main site:

http://www.48hoursinpurgatory.com/


Some notes regarding this:

1) This ARG/ARE is a complete relaunch. New characters, new story, new audio/video, new everything. Not only is what happened in the past irrelevant to the story, it will actually HURT you to know about it.

There is a subforum here as it is, archived somewhere. Do NOT... repeat... DO NOT get any information from it. I ask that the forum remain archived; if a new forum is created for this, it should be just that: blank.

The PMs have asked that we not even talk about the last ARE. Pretend it never existed.

2) The above forum is arguably "out of game" forum, as far as I can tell. The PMs would prefer that discussions occur there because it's easier for them to monitor things, but I kinda know how things work around here so we'll see.

And, to be quite honest, the current PM there is banned here. Long story, don't ask.

3) For those of us that have followed this in the past, there is a minor issue with the previous forum (the "purgatorium"); during a PHP install the database was unlinked. It's still there, and will come back eventually.

4) Because of my relationship with the people behind 48 Hours in Purgatory, this will be the first and last time I will be posting on unFiction regarding it. No, I'm not a PM, but I'm also not one to play the odds with the Terms of Service here. You'll see me over there and elsewhere on UF, just not in this thread.

I would appreciate if some of the other regulars chime in here, start bringing the masses, and get on the new forums.

 		I'm glad to see this back up again and I'm sure that it will be one heck of a ride for all who join up, especially if you like suspense. ^__^

 		Woo! Im in. Some interesting stuff on the main page.
To be honest I'd rather post here then on the form. Easier to keep track of a single tread. Smile

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Page source contains these words:

add us and we're 12, side by side we're important dates in July, which we feel entitled to be-->




EDIT: Can someone have a play with that image?

It's an ARE (alternate reality experience) for a film.

 		Looks pretty cool. I'm in! And it looks like not having background knowledge of a previous ARG/ARE is a good thing in this case! Smile Registering at the other forum now...

 		I signed up. RE: The text in the page source, I believe it simply refers to the 4 and 8 of the site name. "Add us and we're 12, side by side we're important dates in July."

 		Wow! I just came here last night and posted asking if this was back on. Guess it is after all. It's starting over?

It's not starting over in the sense that something once begun is continuing. The film is being re-made, and this is an entirely new experience. So no knowledge of the past is needed and may be a detriment, we're told. All of us are to approach it as if it's entirely new.
