so cool. this seals the deal sports fans- our puzzle hunger shall soon be abated, then you can feast, later on gorge, and eventually swim in puzzle-food-ocean, which reminds me a lot of then at that point youll remember this point right now and go, wasn't sitting on my ass doing nothing but speccing in pregame so much better

of course not! buy the cards! buy the sente dolls! buy them for me also!

no swim with the fishes icon.. had to improvise

edit: 2am maybe i should lay of the sugary substances

[RI_Barnica]

Well. Alright then! Feeling much better now. Still a little crabby because no package has graced my step, even though I was in within 2 minutes of the answer site going live, (never did trust that mailman), but much better nonetheless.

Thanks, SpaceBass! Thanks Adrian!
*RI_Barnica waves and smiles

And, my ghod! How many times will we think this game has started before this game starts?!

[Marrec]

Woo.

This is a refreshing reminder to all the detractors(ers?) of Mind Candy Design and the people in Perplex City that the people putting this together are indeed smarter then they at first appear. I'm still betting on the May 12 official release date to correspond with the BBC thing... if the BBC thing is going off on May 12... I can't remember exactly and it IS finals week.

Thanks SpaceBass and A.Hon

Thanks to SpaceBass for asking and Adrian for telling! All my worries are answered.

[leakingpen]

i think the tag on this is innapropriate. as hon stayed ic (in character) for the whole thing, this is not meta, it is official media contact, and should be considered 100% ig.

/still about a 10% piece of me that wonders if this is real.

[NovacaineX]

WOW! That cleared up pretty much every question I had. Excellent interview. Looks like this isn't going to be another CCG. I'n very glad that the cards aren't what lead us to the cube, because it would really make no sense that they knew where it was and were distributing puzzles so that we could find it. Makes much more sense that the cards just tell us about their culture and history, and we put the pieces together to figure out what happened. That interview single-handedly rejuvenated this game for me.

Thank you Spacebass!

[spaceXplorer]

Ditto everything that has been said on this topic so far (except for leakingpen's 10% doubt, that is - im 100% convinced that Adrian et al will be true to their word).

So roll on the official launch!

[smile]

Very cool interview, thanks Spacebass !

( but why oh why do I have to go on a roadtrip around Europe on May 10th .... it's just not fair I tell you! - but can you imagine if BY Chance clues were dotted along the way? ok I didnt think so either

I guess I'll be logging in from various internet cafes along my route

it'll be a 7 minute segment on the Culture Show, which is a magazine show on every thursday at 7 on bbc2.

for example, tonight's show had a segment about the success of the Tate Modern art gallery, one about an opera based on 1984 and one about the current craze of parenting TV shows... so it's unlikely to be an "expose", just a little article about the ARG phenomenon, prob using PXC as the main example.
