Mmmm... I've been away from ARGing for ever so long, I had to abandon Synagoga/WI due to finals, and then the work just... I dunno... PILED up. Anyway, its nice to be back. If this turned out to be an ARG, I be so happy Very Happy . Heh. Right then. Aaaaanyway.

Hmm. 'We're listening'. So, presuming that Mr. Headphones is addressing us, yet putting a (gloved?) finger over his lips at the same time -- Shh! -- to quiet the addressed party... It would make more sense -- if he is indeed trying to 'shh' the addressed party, telling them at the same time 'we're listening' whilst listening to his headphones... Is he trying to shut us up? *shrugs* Eh, I dunno. Just... I dunno.

... or maybe he's listening to us on the headphones? And he's addressing someone else...? But that seems weird. O well. I dunno.

Wolf... hehehee... Laughing

Anyway. Yeah.

Welllll Lets think about this. We think theres a "2100" on the site.
They post on OUR site saying "we're listening"
and THEY post on THEIR site a correction: "21*100"

The post to let us know we know they know (Smile) was posted by Alexander Price who, hey, happens to show up on the who is.
If this isn't an ARG................ I will kill a kitten.
AND SYNAGOGA WOULD NOT BE HAPPY!

You can tell him that in person when he IMs you.


He will be IMing you, right?

I mean........ how could it be a game if he didn't IM you?

I just love how it's hosted by yahoo. My what ugly source code you have.

How come we don't have a link to where the original picture was posted?

While the one post itself doesn't bother me so much, the Alexander Price posting is not the best idea. While the TOS state that you can only post as one account, and must be yourself (paraphrased) then it's really bending the rules to post an in-game comment. SO... Let's hope that the website is where the action takes place. My reccomendation (being that it's worth nada) is that if there are more in-game posts on the unfiction forums, then we really should ignore this game. (Or only deal with the website stuff) I don't want to open another can of civil war, but there are reasons that we do the things we do here, and that's to make this forum space a safe place for newbies, old farts and lurkers to gather, collaborate, speculate, etc. on ARGs... it is NOT a space in which to "play" said ARGs (meaning new in-game content should not reside solely on these boards, but instead could be mirrored by something elsewhere?) Anyway, yeah, y'all get my point. I hope this is a great game and best of luck to the PMs and players (which I would love to be) but let's not confuse subversion with innovation. (again)

Umm, actually, I think it always said 21*100. We just kinda, you know, did the math. Wink

EDIT: Err, wow. Okay. It said "21*100", and now says "2100." You got me all confuzzled and shizzle and blah.

Dorkmaster brings up a good point. And <insert/mytwocents> I would find it really annoying if you had to buy the comic. Ah well. *slinks off*

... because clearly that was such a helpful post of mine... Rolling Eyes

I'm willing to read a comic or two to play a game. If only I had some clue if this really was a game.
