If it goes quiet, he loses his players.

We've been through it being quiet and the boards locked. I feel very safe in saying that few players will put up with it again.

He has everyones attention, because he has revealed so little about himself and it's all such a mystery. I don't think it's a particular study either, I think it's just a group of friends that got together having a laugh or something.

i doubt that it's just a group of people having a laugh or somthing, i think it
1) is far too thought-out, and
2) has sat stagnant for far too long in the beginning.

if it sat so long, i think this group of people would become disinterested. as to how it is thought out, i don't think someone would go through all of this trouble - the movies, happycube, the stories, the Muses, etc etc... just for a laugh.

now, for a topic change:

the "iliketofix", "ilovetofix", etc guys are all the same, i'd bet, and it seems like a way to cover over his mistakes. iliketofix messed up, so he pretended to be punished/hugged/whatever, and up pops the same guy with a different name. i guess our interest in the game is enough to forgive him for his screw ups and play along with his story.

Aloha. Signed up due to being intruiged by the videos. (I'm maskalade on the Happy Cube forum).

I've known of ARGs for a while but I've never been as hooked on one as with this one, so for the first time i'm making an attempt to participate. I have got a few problems with the setup though, which seem to be shared -

1) Is this really an ARG?
2) How come it got so convoluted, anyway?

As much as I admire the thought behind all of the stories and the ties into Grecian myths (<3), I have to say I enjoyed this a lot more on a creepiness level when it was just the unexplained videos. I lost a ot of sleep over those things.

Meh. There are no puzzles or codes or anything typically ARG, so perhaps this isn't what a typical ARG is. Perhaps it's merely someone trying a new approach to storytelling. Right now, we've been given so little information that we can't tell.

I'd say some people need to relax a little, though. The idea that psychotics could be using this to draw out victims is a bit far fetched, if you ask me. Sure, it's possible in the sense that it could happen, but it sounds a little too slasher flick, if you ask me.

As for the people wondering if this is real, in the literal sense? Guys, chill out. At this point, I'm certain it's something entirely fictional, whether that means a game or some new method of storytelling.

Just a reminder that timestamps can be manipulated. So the appearance that it sat for so long is likely just that; an appearance of such.

I agree with Esteed.

So this is going to be on Art Bell tonight? People will be coming in droves.
Is it wrong of me to sort of miss the days when it was just a handful of us working on this thing?

[Kitrona]

I miss it before the population explosion myself, having gotten in a day before that. :/
