Oh no.... And just when I was getting a bit of an idea of characterization via names (and playing with Russian words):

Mr. Whitewash - Belet = to make white
Mr. Rubble - Butovii = rubble
And, of course the sacrificial Mr. Alter....

Darn.

/me breaks open the vulvas... (ohmygodthatsoundsbad)

In all seriousness, though, it's a shame to see this one go. I thought it had real potential and there was obviously talent behind it - it coulda been a contender, Charlie!

It's not yet clear why this folded, but hopefully the PMs (PM?) can deal with their issues, re-group, and bring something fresh to the table in a few months time.

(You see? You see the love that I can give when people actually put effort into their games? I'm not the heartless kvetcher you think I am!)

Bah, but I know how much can go wrong with an ARG, especially if it's a grass roots (like this seems to be)

And so many people were looking forward to it, well wrote, nice graphics (from what we've seen).

Well Mr. Pm(s) if you do see this than take your time, sort out your problems, and give it another shot, we'll be more than happy to try again ;D

That's a pity, hopefully it's not gone forever it was looking promising.

Summary using a couple of quotes from the PM:

[gyt] hi, the name's bobby, I'm the puppetmaster, and negetively to my ego I'm pulling the plug to my game

[gyt] it's a tad unfortunate that I gave up so quickly, even after reading about so many failures

[gyt] The reason I gave up is
[gyt] because it was just too much work

He's got alot of skill.

Can you tell me his screen name? I could use a replacement for one of my PM's that just had to drop =(

EDIT: oh ho ho, If you highlight the page you get this...
