"Why not NewZealand? Sad

"

Heh, just kidding. Seriously though...

"What was the best Speculation you heard through the course of the game? Was there any that stood out as particularly paranoid, particularly ludicrous, or just plain made you laugh till you couldn't breathe, knowing everything as you did?"

How much control did the players really have in controlling the story/plot/conclusion

Where you actually paying attention to what was being said by the community?

How many different places (read - ARG boards) were you watching? And what sorts of topics were you watching for?

Who's the poor person/people who had to slog through all of our horrible flea code?

How did you keep everything a secret?

There have been no leaks, no spoilers, no nothing. No actors or writers coming foreward.

What, if any, specific lines of dialogue were references to specific things said in the community (e.g. Kemal's phone comment, Melissa's trout comment, etc.)?

Did you ever expect certain elements to happen (e.g. backlash against weephun, ARG/ARS debate, ARGers vs. Haloites debate, Halo2 demo debate) when you planned em?

Did the live calls cause the game to change at all?

Were you surprised at all by the quickness/slowness of us solving any particular puzzles?

Did any puzzles go unsolved or unnoticed?

Did we solve any puzzles in a really different manner than you expected?

How many people worked on this?

Did you ever make any mistakes in the story, live interaction, ect. If so, what were they?

Was the radio play all recorded in advance or was it recorded as we were playing, to allow for changes due to player actions?

One I'd like to see-

Could we get a list of credits of all involved in the production?

What is the biggest mistake that we, the players, made?

What was our greatest triumph?
