 		International letters
I got my welcome letter as an email Sad Apparently international letters are sent like this - otherwise the text is as in the "real" letters.

 		Didn't get my letter yet which means I won't get it until Tuesday at the earliest(due to MLK birthday). I wouldn't care if I got in email form as long as I got it. I am anxious to get going!

Ok updates all over the place, main things to point out are:

New Chat applet over at establishment lounge

http://establishmentlounge.com/chatlounge/chat.html

Developmentis Q&A aplet

http://developmentis.com/

I think at this point creating new topics for Characters, Links etc could only be a good thing seeing as there are ~20 chars mentioned so far throughout the various sites...


When I click on the chat applet link I get an error page returned. The Developmentis Q&A link just takes me the the Developmentis "coming soon" page.

The direct link is http://developmentis.com/online/infoonline.php - you should probably try to empty your cache.

By the way, notice the version # on top of the page Very Happy (v. 19.47 -> Roswell incident)

 		Your link worked fine, thanks!

The question interaction is not very iuntuitive - it doesn't understand most of my questions.

Nice chat provider: "moreevil"

By the way, I don't know if it matters, but the password they gave me happens to be the name of both a local radiostation and a local monument.

I also got a 'local' password. Maybe just trying to let us know that they have our locations.

Men in Black on the doorstep! Foily!

:: MEMO FROM JACOB TRASKY Winter '06/07

Happy New Year!
Here we are again in full swing of another Open ARG. Of' course I am speaking of 6.5, AKA "Township Heights". I am happy to report we have filled up pretty much all of our open player spots and are ready for the official launch on Jan 14th, 2007.

We are always pleasantly surprised at the communities willingness to take a leap of faith into our realities and actively participate. I can say we have already had some very active players and amazing communications. That is why we do what we do, for the players.

On another note, as I reflect on 2006, I can say Virtuquest did some interesting things. We uploaded the new VQC web site including the new VQC Gallery, took on several web development clients, took a mandatory summer hiatus and all the long talked, planned and designed 6.5. It was a busy, yet fairly quiet year. Not necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes in the ARG world quiet is nice.

I would like to take a moment and answer some of the most commonly asked questions we receive in our email.

Q. Will the City of Domes ARG ever start up again?

A. This is a project I would definitely like to see completed. Several of us have invested many hours in development on this one. However, currently VQC does not have any plans to re-start this adventure.

Q. When will VQC do another" VirtuCube Puzzle" .

A. Well the "VirtuCube" was a one time event. But, we do have preliminary plans on another large scale "Puzzle" entity which we would like to offer to the open community. It would not be a cube, but something else with incredibly hard puzzle elements and yes... there most likely will be a prize!.

Q. Is the Ray Gatin Saga ever going to continue?

A. Ray Gatin for those of you who did not play some of our first games was a character from the Quantum Network Department. He was helped by players around the world in several situations. Ray is currently filed in our "future" games folder because we at VQC would love to have him make another ARG appearance.

Well, that is it. The 3 most asked questions in recent months.

Good luck to all the new players joining us this winter, we look forward to more adventures in the future.

Keep Warm!

abcJo

New Kravitz blog entry:

Ahoy!
Well I have been out and about again. Lots of busy people and businesses in Township these days. I would like to clarify that I do not officially affiliate myself with the local Township News Publication, many of my readers assume I am employed by them, we all know what happens when you assume something, don't we.

Ok now... I am very happy to report (unofficially of' course) that this years Township Days celebration will be visited by some very famous entertainment acts. In a few days, once I get the official word I will let you know who is coming and who is not. Lets hear it for the THCC for helping out the Township Days committee getting this off to a great start.

Now for my rant if you will. I am not happy with the new parking meters. I am a little of a "germ-a-phobe" and now I have to touch those things to leave a hand print to park in my favorite downtown spots. Really, what is wrong with using ole fashion change? Germs, Germs everywhere! I am a big fan of Developmentis, but why on earth did they have to develop a new parking meter. I know about the complaints about broken coin having enough change, etc. but really. Germs!

 		Well, I got the email today with ID and password but its not working! Anyone else have this problem? Should I contact Virtuquest (if so at what address?). I'll keep trying to get in through the day. Maybe its just a glitch.

 		Mine didn't work the first time either. Are you using IE? Try that or try reloading the page. Also, I believe the login is case-sensitive, so make sure you're not adding in a capital letter when they're all lower-case. Hope that helps! Very Happy

And the new Blog post:

Welcome to Township!
Let me be the first to say, "Welcome to Township". I have actually met some of the first new residents and they seem wonderful. Of' course, they have lots to learn about Township, but didn't we all? Please be sure to stop by and tell them about Township or just say a nice "Hello".

The Tdays festival is fast approaching and I am just busting with excitement. Especially with the wonderful food. Ohhh the food... I will admit I cannot control my urges and desires when it comes to the grilled specialties available at the outdoor food banquet. At least I will have 365 days after Tdays to lose and excess weight Wink

Now to a sad note. I was informed late last night by a my sister, who knows a cousin of a former Township Mayors Office employee, that the former assistant to the mayor was involved in a freak accident involving a small gas leak and a large explosion. I am not sure why the local paper has not mentioned it, but I feel as a community member we should have some type of memorial or plaque... something. He did serve Township for several years and help all those in the mayor's office.

OK, lets move on. I was listening to the new releases from the Bill Brazel Band. I like 'em!
They really get me thinking and in the mood to groove! Yes, I can dance. I will have you know that I was actually on the popular 1980's show Solid Gold as a guest golden dancer for one episode. I will have to dig my beta-max out someday.

Alright, that is all for today!
Welcome the new residents...

AWWWWWW, Jay's dead. Sad
